Beautiful picture with excellent colors and the blackest blacks. Plenty of connection options. Simple design exudes grace and poise. Builtin WiFi
Watch YouTube
Netflix
Hulu and Sony's own Hollywood offerings without an external box
Attractively designed. Excellent image detail. Wide viewing angles. Accurate colors. Energy efficient.
The Sony KDL-HX850 delivers excellent picture quality for an LCD
With deep blacks and plenty of detail in shadows. Blooming was minimal
And both uniformity and viewing angle were very good. The Gorilla Glass front adds both toughness and good looks
The editors didn't like
Menus are a mess
Remote is meh
And configuration requires Ring TFM. Internet options (Yahoo widgets!) aren't easy to navigate
But at least the remote has a dedicated Netflix button. 3D glasses sold separately. It does Skype
But the camera is sold sepa
Pricey
And 3D glasses not included. Low contrast ratio
The HX850 is expensive compared with like-performing plasmas
Sony has created an elegant TV with their Monolithic approach. The TV is minimalistic, clean and without any visible joints. HX850 is the first Google TV ready model but until Sony's Google TV boxes arrive we only Sony's Bravia Internet Video platform is...
Picture exhibits very good sharpness and detail; excellent built-in speakers; impressive selection of internet sources; built-in help menus
Difficult to access some ports; poorly designed remote control, $2,299.00

At $2299 and $3499 (for the 46-inch and 55-inch models, respectively) the HX850 is on par with its LED competition in terms of price — it's certainly more affordable than Panasonic's WT50 — while producing a picture that can compete with plasmas like Pann...
Elegant design, Awesome 2D picture quality, Good online content, Excellent value
A little crosstalk with 3D, A few operating issues, SEN loads slowly, Very rare backlight 'blocking'
There really isn't any overstating the potential importance of the KDL-46HX853 to Sony right now. For in one single leap its stunning picture performance takes the struggling Japanese giant from near-zero to all-conquering hero - an achievement made all ...
Excellent HD picture quality, Accurate preset colour modes, Excellent colour and contrast after adjustment
Remote feels cheap, Interface looks dated, App support is an afterthought
Sony's new HX850 has good picture quality for its price, performing better than similarly-priced LG and Samsung models in its default and calibrated settings. Apart from some minor issues with detail in dark areas, the HX850 handles both standard and HD v...
Decent picture quality, good uniformity of picture from an edge-LED set, decent price at time of writing, attractive "art object" design, full of connectivity including Skype and catch-up services,
Slanted design won't suit all and is exaggerated in 55-inch model, corner filtration "vignettes" in bright scenes, dark scenes show some inevitable edge-LED light, default sound needs tweaking, SEN access is too slow, Homeshare needs a rework
Even a year on from its unveiling the Sony Bravia KDL-55HX853 still proves its worth. Great picture quality and uniformity from this edge-LED LCD set that's only really let down by slow Sony Entertainment Network access and that slanted design which wo...
Abstract: Like the similar KDL-40HX753, the Sony Bravia KDL-40HX853 comes with a stand that angles the set slightly backwards. In this case, though, it's much broader and chunkier as it not only supports the TV but also contains speakers. Sadly these speakers do...
Abstract: Sony’s bid to take over your living room certainly is a tasty one. This 55-inch slice of nice is just about as connected as they get: it pipes Sony’s internet TV service straight to the big screen, but unlike many rivals, it packs Wi-Fi so you won’t ne...
