The Sony BRAVIA XBR8-Series HDTVs represent the next step forward for Sony HDTV technology. Underpinning this advance is the TRILUMINOS RGB Dynamic LED backlight, which utilizes clusters of red, green, and blue LEDs to produce accurate colors and an amazingly realistic image, and employs local dimming to dynamically adjust the brightness of LED clusters, allowing the XBR8 to display deep blacks alongside bright whites for enhanced image depth and exceptional shadow detail. Motionflow 120Hz PRO technology creates new frames to double the frame rate, then uses sequential scanning to enhance motion and deliver a smoother and clearer picture, and 24p True Cinema lets you experience a cinema-like experience. BRAVIA XBR8-Series HDTVs also feature the powerful BRAVIA Engine 2 PRO fully digital video processor, which creates sharp, crystal-clear images at any resolution, as well as advanced color reproduction technologies including 10-bit processing and a 10-bit panel, Live Color Creation, and x.v.Color capability. DMex functionality lets you expand the capabilities of the BRAVIA XBR8-Series with optional BRAVIA Link modules, including the BRAVIA Internet Video Link, BRAVIA Wireless Link, BRAVIA DVD Link, and BRAVIA Input Link (all sold separately). In addition, the exclusive Xross Media Bar (XMB) user interface, integrated TV Guide Interactive Program Guide, and BRAVIA Sync one-touch component control make the BRAVIA XBR8-Series HDTVs easy to use, and the large number of inputs offer you a wide range of connectivity options. BRAVIA XBR8-Series HDTVs also feature an RS-232C connection for integration into home automation systems. You can even customize the timeless design of the BRAVIA XBR8-Series by adding optional speaker grilles available in a selection of designer colors (sold separately)

5absolutely amazing!  Mar 03, 2010
I am completely satisfied with this tv. it meets and exceeds every expectation i had for it. if you dont care about the price, i would recommend this tv to anyone. it truely is the best one out there

5Worth the money  Feb 26, 2010
I researched TVs through Consumer's Review, and talked to salesmen at Best Buy. All agreed this was one of the best pictures out there. The splurge was worth it. Super Bowl and Olympics have never been so great!

5A Very Good HD TV  Feb 22, 2010
Having been using my old big box 27" Sony for 20 years, when it comes time to upgrade, I chose the same name brand. The 46XBR8 that I've got for over 5 weeks, shows off as an excellent TV. As it is rated in the Consumer Reports (Both March 2010 and December 2009) as the number one TV in the 46 inches class, I agree all that is true. The pictures are clear, images sharp and colors bright. It even works, with no sharpness reduction, with my old indoor antenna. However I had to subscribe to the wired FiOS from a promotion as well as more channels, the high definition images from the air proved to be a bit better, I attributed that to the Sony TV itself. The images are dazzlingly beautiful, when I watched the 2010 Vancouver, they are stunningly attractive with my old antenna reception alone. Just amazing!

The OneCall is very reliable. They are courteous and professional. Never ask you to insure or pay extra. It was promptly delivered in three days. Their delivery message is constantly updated so you know the where about and status of the order. Lastly, the local delivery company has a care and polite driver who even kindly helped me carry and move the item into my living room, when the paper agreement mentioned curb side drop off only.

Amazon is the best to order, when I want to order anything again.

5Sony Bravia XBR KDL-46XBR8 46-Inch 1080p 120Hz Triluminos LED LCD HDTV  Jan 28, 2010
Although this TV is the 2008 model (design). It is a better TV all the way around when comparing it to the 2009's and 10's.
The design of the side (end) speakers is great for stereo separation. The fact that it has triluminous LED backlight(s) is a plus all the way around as well.
Only one (largest one)of the "NEW' Sony TV's use the LED technology which is superior to the Fluorescent tubes in most LCD TV's.
You just can't beat the colors on this 2008 model

5No regrets at all!  Jan 28, 2010
I love everything about my new TV! Not only is the backlit LED the best-of-the-best for LCDs, but Sony's Triluminos RGB LEDs are even better than the standard state-of-the-art LED backlighting!

Sure, it was expensive, and I probably could have been happy with a cheaper TV, but I have no regrets opting for the top-of-the-line Bravia.

The menus and on-screen graphics are top-notch - super user-friendly, especially if you have PS3 experience.

The number of inputs for composite, component, and HDMI cables is outstanding, especially compared to the Samsungs that we were also considering. I used one of those inputs to link to my computer's video card; WOW what a huge improvement over my old 32" Philips CRT!! HDMI is such an improvement over S-Video!!

I am very satisfied with the 46" size; people say you never regret going bigger, but the next-size-up XBR8 cost an *extra* $1k ... and that box probably wouldn't have fit in my car (the 46" did, with seats folded flat; we bought it locally, not on Amazon).

Consumer Reports Says Buy Your HDTV at Amazon!

Washington, D.C. (October 31, 2008) -- When it comes to price, Consumer Reports says shoppers are most likely to find the best deals online. And the publication called three ecommerce sites "standouts" in this year's Consumer Reports ratings of electronics stores: Amazon.com, Crutchfield.com and B&H (bhphotovideo.com)

The magazine's survey was based on more than 38,000 purchases of electronics, including flat-screen TVs, between January 2007 and June 2008. The report indicated that online stores consistently offered better prices. (The magazine's full report can be found in its December 2008 issue.)

"
Buying online can be better," the magazine said in a press release. "The higher-rated electronics retailers in Consumer Reports annual reader survey are Web sites. Readers who bought online rated their overall satisfaction at 90 out of 100 -- higher than those who bought in a store. Additionally, many Web merchants offer free shipping, even on TVs, which could spare the hassle of struggling to fit a bulky carton in the car or paying a local store for delivery."

Consumer Reports said that while no single retailer scored excellent in all shopping categories, Amazon.com and Crutchfield.com came closest.
