Sony KDL-42W653A

Sony's resurgence continues with this impressively affordable 42-inch TV.

Outstanding value ; Good picture quality for the money ; Good selection of online streaming content

no ITV Player or 4oD support ; No 3D (if that bothers you) ; Only two HDMIs

The Sony 42W653A’s network features are delivered via built-in Wi-Fi or LAN connections. But there are some significant connectivity compromises to swallow. There are just two HDMIs when even budget TVs often sport three, and just one USB port for...

Sony KDL-42W653A review

Sony targets the budget market with admirable results

Impressive picture quality ; Some good online services ; Great value ; Strong video processing

Smart interface lacks sophistication ; Limited catch-up TV services ; Only two HDMIs ; Sound quality is average

The 42W653A's picture quality really is excellent for its money, while a ground-breakingly low input lag performance also makes it a stellar option for serious gamers.

Sony KDL-32W653A

It may not be the best in class, but the sharp and clear picture and smart features make it a worthwhile buy

Sharp and clean picture quality ; Good detail and colour balance ; Stable motion ; Crisp, bright whites ; Decent sound quality ; A variety of smart apps and internet content ; Elegant build

Lacks the subtlety of the best in class ; Black levels could go deeper ; Limited connectivity

Sony was the belle of the ball last year, picking up Awards for nearly every TV category. It’s a different story this year, with some rivals giving just a bit more in terms of absolute excitement and insight – Sony needs to up its game to keep up with...

Sony KDL-42W653A

1. good picture quality. once colour adjusted in menu. 2. light and slim. designed for wall mounting.

1. sounds tinny. spend £150-£300 on a soundbar. 2. stand not swivel. spend £50 on a swivel base. 3. stand too low. soundbar cannot fit under TV. 4. only 2 hdmi ports. 5. no user manual. i-manual is online only. 6. a 46" (non smart tv) would have been...

Sony KDL-42W653A

TV developed a red line vertically after only 15 months - it is an apparent fault with the LCD panel due to poor manufacturing.

Sony KDL-42W653A

As a non technical person I was a little worried in case I could not tune the TV in but once out of the box it was so easy to put on the stand and to tune in the TV. The Smart section was also easy to understand. It went linked with my broadband and...
