Sony BRAVIA KDL-43W800D 43 inch (109 cm) LED Full HD TV

Used this TV extensively for two days now and here is my opinion about the TV. Pros: 1. The Picture Quality - Its way better than any other branded TVs I used so far. The display quality is top notch, the colors are punchy and HD videos are exceptionally sharp. Also What I've noticed is that even 720p or 480p videos looks much better in this than in other TVs. I would rate a 5 star for the display quality. 2. Sound is adequate and is loud enough for a small sized drawing room. The virtual surround system is pretty impressive, but my suggestion is to get a better 5.1 system and connect it so that you can enjoy movies the proper way. 3. HD Tv channels are a pleasure to watch in this one, SD channels are so so. But definitely not grainy like in other low refresh rate HD TVs. 4. 800 Hz Refresh Rate. Yeah, I know its an over kill. But the TV does a really good job when watching fast paced things, like a Football Match or a Formula 1 race. There is no ghosting, no flickering and no pixelations. The higher frame rate definitely is playing role there I guess. 5. Android TV with Android 5.1. This is of great use when installing applications. But again, android TV apps are in limited numbers. I think its still a work in progress, but yes, this TV got a proper Google licence (unlike VU and all) and we have Google Play Store pre installed. Also Apps like YouTube and Facebook work just fine and yes Youtube shows proper full HD videos. Also Neflix was preinstalled and I got a one month free subscription with the TV. 6. Any media playback. Yeah, I tried files like .MKV, .MOV, .AVi and even .FLV. Everything worked pretty smooth and if anything is not working, there is always apps in play store with which we can make it work. 7. Amazing 3D ! Really !!! This is a much better immersive 3D than what I've experienced in theaters and other passive 3D TVs but make sure than you have a proper 3D video at your disposal to enjoy it. You can download plenty of stereoscopic side-by-side or over-and-under videos from Internet. Or better than that is to get a PS3 or a 3D Blue-ray player :-) 8. Plenty of connectivity options ! A lot actually. There is WiFi and Bluetooth and DLNA. If you have a compatible mobile, your life will be easier with this TV. You can install Sony remote or Side View app from the play store and use your phone as a remote. Yes, your phone doesn't need an IR blaster port. It works over WiFi. That means you don't really have to point your phone towards your TV too. And on top of that Side View app also give program guide for almost any cable/satellite providers in India which is cool ! And with DLNA I can share anything wirelessly from my mobile to TV and also there is screen mirroring which is cool again ! Not to forget, the TV is also providing an IR blaster with which you control anything connected to the TV like a set top box/DVD or BlueRay player. 9. 2 years warranty - I got a 1 year comprehensive and a 1 year extra panel warranty from Sony without any extra bucks which is really good. 10. Last but not least, Flipkart was dot on delivery and installation. I got the TV within 24 Hrs and the installation was done by the Sony Technician (who was very knowledgeable) in 2 hrs after the TV was delivered. Cons: 1. 3D TV - but no 3D glasses ! Sony want to make more money. No ordinary 3D glasses are compatible with this one other than Sony BT400A or BT500A and they charge 1999 per glass ! That is too much and they should ideally give a pair of glass along with the TV. 2. No Smart remote control ! Yeah, the TV is compatible with a Sony smart remote control, but what u get with the TV is a normal remote control. If you want a smart one, shell out another 3K ! That's looting again Sony ! But on the plus side, they are providing the side view app free of cost from the play store which does things better than a smart remote :) The app even got a voice search too. So, no need to get a smart remote actually. 3. Price - Way too steep. Sony products are still over priced. I know the quality is un-matchable, but hey, look at the market and put some competitive pricing. People will buy your products and love you more Sony. Thanks all for reading my review. Good day !

Amazing Product in the Range. No need to buy 4K TV's today when you have TV's like this available in the market. ( and you don't have 4K content available ) Amazing Display, Android 5.1.1 Preloaded - Works like Magic , Amazing sound system and its super light & thin. W800D is 2016 Model , W800C is old model hence try and but this one. Smart feature are just amazing. Some of things I was looking for doing my evaluation and never found on any website / review. 1. It doesn't come with remote that has Speak Button. 2. Its 2016 Model , there is Sticker on the TC screen when you open the box. 3. No 3D glasses in the Box. Some of the website says Samsung 3D glasses will work but when I checked with the installation guy he said only Sony Glasses will work. Price point at which I got this was the icing on the cake. Got it for INR 53K only on Flipkart under exchange of old 42 Inch LG LCD TV and 10% off on final value by using Master card.
