Although I have rated good above, there seems to be some major problem with this TV. It's just been a month and there is a power supply problem. The TV turns off by itself and does not turn ON.

    Summary: While the majority of 3D TVs you can buy come with the transmitter that synchronises the active shutter glasses integrated into the TV, with the KDL-40HX803 you get a separate transmitter unit. This plugs into the rear of the TV and sticks on top of...

    Conclusion: An excellent 2D TV with an amazing internet portal, but 3D suffers from crosstalk.

    Summary: Sony have produced a decent all round TV which has one of the best LCD implementations of 3D technology to date ..

    Conclusion: Sony are just about managing to keep up with the likes of Samsung when it comes to well performing competitively priced LCD TVs across the range.

    Pro : Picture quality, one of the better LCD 3D implementations

    Cons : 3D 'Crosstalk

    Summary: When we first heard that there were going to be "3D Ready" TVs coming from Sony we audibly groaned. "HD Ready" caused plenty of confusion a few years ago. With a band of "3D Ready" TVs are we going to see the same confusion? The HX803 is one such set:...

    Conclusion: Our final impression on 3D from the HX803 is that the ad-hoc approach using conversion from 2D to 3D leaves a lot to be desired; watching content designed for 3D makes a much better impression. Overall it is a great offering from Sony, even if it lacks...

    Pro : Excellent handling of HD and SD content, XMB, Bravia Internet Video

    Cons : 2D to 3D conversion isn't great, viewing angle not great, price when you consider you have to buy the accessories

    Summary: As a 2D LED LCD television, it's excellent, but if you're interested in 3D, this 40in set becomes a more considered purchase.

    Conclusion: Looked at as a 2D TV - which is actually what it is in its 'out of the box' state - the 40HX803 is pretty excellent, producing arguably the best pictures we’ve seen from an edge LED TV to date. So if you're not interested in 3D, feel free to buy a...
