This Sony TV has exceeded 100% of my expectations. Though the NX series of Bravia TV's may not be the premium "Flagship" series like the HX Bravia's, I have to say, the price is right. I've seen a review on here where a guy has issues with the picture with its dark and black colors. Let me tell you something the Blacks can't compare to a plasma, but otherwise, the Blacks look PRISTINE. There are SIMPLE fixes for his or her issues. 1._Watch it in a darker area/room!! Too much light can diminish or alter the appearance of black colors on the screen. 2._One can adjust the picture/color/shading quality of the TV to improve its appearance. easily. **HIGHLY RECOMMENDED FOR THE BEST EXPERIENCE** -15.6 GBps HDMI cables. (cheap 10.2-11 GBps HDMI cables suffer with lag problems, and can't deliver immaculate picture. Any video games will NEED this for seamlessly smooth picture, especially for online play) -SONY 3D glasses are preferable, though other brands DO work. Sony 3D glasses are also just easier to set up, use, charge, and, for the most part, more comfortable to wear. (Samsung is a good alternative though)

great picture, but missing important features

Pros: picture quality

Cons: internet using remote

it's a great tv, but if you're looking for something to connect to the internet, it lacks a qwerty keyboard or anything close too it.. the supplied remote reminds me of the original days of texting with a simple cell phone... clicking the same button over and over until you find the right character, then doing it all over again.... yes, they do offer a free app for your smart phone, and I'm told if I wanted to go buy sony laptop that I might be able to use that... but to develop such a beautiful product and leave such an important feature as a keyboard controller out of the picture ( not even available as a accessory ), tells me this TV is not quite ready for what it was designed too do...

Sony Bravia NX720

I'm only a 15 year old but i'm technically savvy so dont let that put you off this review. I agree with the person who said the TV is slow. It takes almost a minute to load up everything and that includes basic commands like volume and such. The internet is horrible, dont use it. I can't review the speakers because i'm hooked up to a surround sound system. It pairs with other devices well especially sony devices (ex. my blu ray player and surround sound). The picture is fantastic, it's breathtaking actually. The picture is smooth as well. Personally i don't like the tv's with unbelievably smooth pictures so this one is fine. The 3D is bad. I hoped for better but it's just horrible and the glasses are expensive too. It looks amazing on my wall though. The border around the screeen is desiigned to blend into the actual screen when it is off so it has a clean look. overall i would definitely recommend this tv especially considering how expensive other similar tvs are (samsung).

Amazing 2D; Okay 3D

Pros: Amazing colors, Apps,

Cons: flickering 3D, Expensive 3D glasses.

This is a great 2D TV, but if you are looking to buy it to watch 3D movies, look else where. I love the 2D, HDTV, but cannot get pass the flickering 3D experience. The active shutter technology adjusts the glasses to match with 3D video and it has a long way to perfect it. The brightness, contrast and color change is quiet noticeable. Plus do not forget $50 or more for each 3D glasses. My advice- for 3D passive technology is the King. Otherwise, great TV.

AWESOME TV!

Pros: Everything

Cons: There is not ONE

I purchased this tv after many hours of research. I kept going back and forth between the 720 and the 520.. I'm so glad that I went with the 720. I got the 55" and it's true to the specs and totally amazing. I read some complaining about the sound. There is no problem whatsoever with the sound. The tv actually is very loud. I had to turn the volume level to 18 as any higher was just to loud. The picture is crisp and I don't see any black shadowing. We LOVE this tv and I can't wait to try out the 3D.. I recommend this tv to anyone that is looking for a 55inch outstanding tv!

Excellent Picture

Pros: Picture Quality is excellent and easy to setup.

Cons: Poor Sound Quality

This TV has excellent picture quality but is lacking in the sound department because of the rear facing speakers. Anyone who does not connect it through a surround system will be disappointed. I have it connected to a Bose surround sound system so I was able to overcome this issue.
