Comments about Sony KDL46HX729 46" 1080p 3D LED TV:
The television is used for our living room for general purposes, movies, video games.
Don't let the 480Motion tag fool you, but don't let it pass this tv by! It's truly a 240mhz television, but anything over 120 for most people is more than needed.
Great for sports, action movies, and video games. Doesn't come with the glasses, but I don't have anything for 3D video anyhow.
Don't have anything negative to point out as of right now, but B&H delivered another fine product to my home.

Comments about Sony KDL46HX729 46" 1080p 3D LED TV:
The image quality is sharp and movie-like. This picture competes with the best plasmas including the ST30. Smoothness of motion is probably from the processor and 240 Hz capabilities. I don't use the 3D, but I did try it and it is very good. The 2D is so good that the image has incredible depth- a real plus. I like that the unit tilts up and down as well as side to side - a very high quality stand for the TV. Well... after many years, I tip my hat to Sony again. They're back! While many brands of LCD/LEDs suffer from harshness, the smoothness and pleasing image qualities of this TV are much appreciated. The only minor drawback is that the edging is glossy black, I prefer a brushed matte finish for the frame. That said, I don't really notice it.
