2011 Sony Models
Sony 55" XBR55HX929
The mammoth 55" flat panel HDTV XBR55HX929 model from Sony has exceptional features and is the top model for 2011 and continues through the spring of 2012. Color are very rich but not over saturated from teh Gorilla Glass LCD Screen. This top end TV has LED full array local dimming backlighting on its 55 inch diagonal viewing area screen. That means the TV can better isolate light to enhance contrast in certain areas of the screen. Fast motion scenes may be smoother on this TV thanks to the 960Hz simulated refresh rate which should also help smooth side to side camera slow panning.
Sony 55" KDL55NX720
The 55 inch KDL55NX720 also has Sony's Gorilla Glass in its outer LCD panel. While not the top end Sony model it does have 480Hz refresh rate. We did note a little blurring from this model in fast motion scenes and some jerky judder motion artifacts. However, it is a good value all the way around.
