I'm not saying Sony has bad picture, but if you can get a decent price for older LCD, you are not going to find much difference as long as you are getting one from one of these name brands. After having played with picture setting, I still liked Samsung better. Also, for some reason, Samsung screen feels bigger as well. I have two 32in TV. I use the TV for signals from PS3 and Cable as well as signals off the air. I also got Sony for $480 brand New. One from Samsung, which I bought for 350 as a used product (it's 2 year old product). I was expecting some difference from Sony vs Samsung, not because of the Brand, but because of the relatively newer technology from Sony.
That can have serious consequences in an FPS style game, but once you get used to it, the lag basically disappears from your brain. Right around 42ms. The good news, is that for a 32" LCD, it's actually not too bad.
I knew that there would be a bit of lag with it, but I had judged it to be negligible from my experiences with an LG 32" I had. Great picture, good color depth, nice and bright when I need it, and HD movies come out crisp and clear. Bought this primarily for watching HD movies and playing HD games via Xbox 360.
However, the dark side to LCD technology is the lag that shows up when playing fast moving games. Overall a great tv, well worth what I paid for it. Wasn't a good judging stick.
The LG blows away the Bravia in this sense, in all others though, the Bravia comes out on top.
I cannot find any negative feature on this. Streaming TV shows from HULU & Joost are incredible. With this gorgeous monitor, I don't have to adjust the zoom & text sizes, no matter what. I purchased this TV to use as a monitor. Now, I am thinking of buying a game console very soon. The images are almost 3D and crystal clear. What an obscenely beautiful monitor it is. My Samsung 22" monitor does not measure up.
I paid an extra 70 bucks for the sony and satified with the performance. Love it. Compare it with the same type Vizio 32" 720p HDTV and there's a big difference in tuner signal.
My only complaint is the delay between channel changes is pretty long, about 2 or 3 seconds. Love this TV. Great TV for the price. Other than that, the picture is great, the sound is excellent (front facing speaker), and the remote control is simple. It was easy for a single woman to set up alone. Operations are easy; great design.
