The 40” Sony Bravia KDL-40V2500 is an awesome LCD HDTV displaying 16:9 1080p at 1920×1080 resolution. Sony has hit the mark with the Bravia KDL-40V2500 especially with the lowered price to compete with other LCD HDTV companies like Samsung, Sharp, Panasonic, and Toshiba. The quality is top notch. The colors and contrast are near perfect and pictures even appear to jump out of this LCD HDTV more than other LCD TV’s when compared side by side.Watching non HD content is not a problem with the Sony Bravia KDL-40V2500. Even playing regular DVD’s look almost HD with an upscaling or upconverting dvd player like the OPPO DV-980H 1080p Up-Converting Universal DVD Player or Sony’s own Sony DVP-NS77H/B 1080p Upscaling DVD Player. I heard you can use the remote from Sony’s dvd player to operate the V2500 series. SD (or standard display) is also good and better than other LCD TV’s and almost to the level of your old CRT tube tv set.

The remote control is not bad, but there have been some dissatisfaction with it from some owners saying that it feals cheap or clunky. You’ll probably end up getting a universal remote anyway if you don’t like the factory TV remote. Any negative thoughts caused by the remote are easily made up for with the excellent and simple menu. Going through the Bravia 40V2500’s settings is a breeze. One great feature of this LCD HDTV that you should enjoy is the ability to label the inputs and skip the unused inputs. This should be included with every TV set.

There have been some reports on fogginess in dark scenes, but not many owners have seen it. Maybe messing around with the display or lowering the brightness will help if you see this in your own Sony Bravia KDL-40V2500 HDTV set. Also, if you see a white line above the screen, just raise the vertical display a little bit to make it disappear. You can also change the display area from “full pixel” to normal and that will get rid of the white line.

The Sony Bravia KDL-40V2500 LCD HDTV comes with two hdmi inputs. If you’re buying hdmi cables, you don’t need to get the expensive ones. You can buy HDMI cables for under $15-$20 at Amazon and they work just as good as the ones that cost an arm and a leg. If you plan to buy the warranty for the Sony Bravia KDL-40V2500 LCD HDTV, you can get it cheaper straight from Sony instead of from Amazon.

Overall, the 40” Sony Bravia KDL-40V2500 LCD HDTV is an awesome television with stunning visuals that will drop jaws like when people went from b&w to color TV’s. The refresh rate is not extremely fast as is expected from an LCD TV, but it shouldn’t be a big impact on the viewing experience. The sound is as good as any LCD HDTV on the market if not better. I didn’t cover the sound much, but it is definitely not weak and may surprise you with how good it sounds. Sony has put together a complete package in the Bravia KDL-40V2500 with great visuals and audio to deliver an immersive experience to the viewer. This LCD HDTV may be the best bang you can get for your buck.
