Great looks, build and finish, superb ergonomics, does fine work with black tones and motion, exceptional sound, impeccable backlighting
No great shakes at upscaling DVD, others offer even more dynamic contrasts, 3D glasses cost extra
As an overall package, there's just no disputing the Sony KDL-46HX853's case.Its contrasts could conceivably be stronger, and those who need it to upscale a lot of DVD movies might think twice, but in every other respect the Sony's hugely impressive. It's...
Any quibbles relating to the KDL-46HX853’s file playback limitations or undernourished audio are quickly silenced by the storming image quality. This can be considered a top-class performer for both HD sports and movies. Throw in a huge selection of st...
High contrast, Accurate colours: average Delta E = 2.3, Effective Motionflow XR 800 Hz function, Great 3D picture quality (hardly any crosstalk), Low power use: 107 watts, Wider than average viewing angles
Glossy screen, The model we tested had some clouding issues, No 3D glasses included, Media player not compatible with many file formats
The Sony Bravia HX853 delivers excellent picture quality in 2D and 3D, with high contrast, accurate colours, a near-perfect gamma and great responsiveness. However, even though the dynamic backlighting improves clouding (light patches leaking through i...

The 46HX853 is an absolutely stunning LED set that truly lives up to its flagship status. That's primarily due to its extraordinary picture quality, with the sort of black depth, colour vibrancy and sharpness that you don't always get from LED sets. The ...
Great picture quality, soundbar stand produces rich audio straight from the box, lots of connectivity and built-in Sony Entertainment Network
Slanted stand design won't suit all, Homeshare should be simpler to set up and have a better library system, response can be slow
Fantastic image quality, deep blacks and rich sound make this set among the best in its class. But the slow responsiveness, Homestream’s headache of a setup, and the slanted "monolith" stand are issues to consider. Ignore those bumps and its otherwise ...
In some respects, this next-gen Sony is not significantly different from the models launched during 2011. It offers from the same mediocre multimedia file support and suffers from crosstalk-addled 3D. But the brand has made a big step forward when it...

Impressive black levels and contrast, Very good uniformity, Excellent colour reproduction out-of-the-box, Reference colour and greyscale post-calibration, Picture processing is of a very high standard, Beautiful design, as ever, Extremely competitive pric
Speaker stand may put some off, Some noise in dark areas of the picture, Edge lighting can get caught out near the perimeters of screen, Occasional banding and DSE witnessed, Fractured feeling to feature set, 3D Glasses are still not good, Viewing angles
