Summary: Great PQ, bad sparkles... 2008-07-04
Comment: I've had this TV for over 2 weeks, and to be honest, I loved it... until I started noticing some sparkles.
First the good part: the PQ is great, and the set looks amazing. SD content looks spectacular, as do upconverted DVDs.
Now the bad part: Almost immediately I noticed that TV has a case of the 'sparkles' -- in certain dark scenes, some pixels turn white and and it appears as if there are sparkles on the screen (most commonly about 4 inches from the top right portion of the screen, but they can also occur in other places). This is even viewable during the credits of all movies... to be honest, if it weren't for these sparkles, the set would be amazing, but once I started noticing them, they have been bothering me ever since. Hopefully Sony can issue a fix for this -- I've heard that it affects not only the V series, but also the W and Z... and it's not remedied by changing the cables (HDMI or component)
Without the sparkles, I'd give the set 5 stars. Until Sony recognizes this problem, it's gonna have to stay at 2.

Summary: Great TV! 2008-07-02
Comment: I considered the Sony 40W4100/40Z4100 and also Samsung 40" 650/750 models. After weeks of research, I finally went with the 40V4100 based on budget and "must have" technical specifications. I can't imagine the higher end models being much better than this TV. It was even more impressive once I got it home and away from the "over-stimulation" by all the TVs on display at the store. The setup was easy. The clarity is phenomenal. The remote control and on-screen options were well thought out by Sony. First class TV in the $1300-$1500 price range. The only problem is that I find myself watching more TV and doing less chores around the house!

Summary: Great TV, Superb Picture, Good Value 2008-06-21
Comment: Have had my 40V4100 a month now. Had originally wanted the "W" with 120 Hz but this "V" was on sale locally making the difference $600. I do not regret buying this 60 Hz set, and saving hundreds of dollars. Overall it is excellent after getting the picture settings adjusted to my liking. Audio quality from the built-in speakers is surprisingly good with the Dynamic mode ON and some extra bass and treble. I do have a minor problem that seems to be common to this new line of Sony LCD TVs - intermittent tiny bright white dots that appear randomly across the picture in a straight line, just a few at a time, about 4" below the top of the picture, in HDMI mode only. Most noticeable on dark or black scenes. I almost exchanged the set for another one, until I saw the same white dots on a 40V4100 at the store playing a Blu-Ray disc. So far Sony's support does not seem to recognize the problem. I hope Sony will pay attention to what their customers are telling them and come up with a fix for this ASAP because it can be quite noticeable on HDMI upcsaled DVD or Blu-Ray sources. If not for that I would rate it a 5.

Summary: Very nice HDTV for its price 2008-05-29
Comment: There are many LCD HDTVs in market today and picture quality is quite comparable. When you take a TV home, it always "look" great but what you should also consider is its feature-set, user friendliness. This Sony tv is very nice in all aspects for the price tag it has. The discounted one, I mean and not the MSRP. The remote is much more responsive, lots of control options, very nice cinemotion even without the 120Hz. Dont judge TVs too much by response time and contrast ratios. These numbers are product specific and can not be compared across. I also like this tv can lock channel irrespective of the ratings info. The on-screen guide is very nice.
Has very rich and true colors, deep black levels, good surround sound. When you switch channels, they change very quickly as compared to some other TVs. The information displayed is also very good.
Overall, a very good buy.
Cons: No backlit remote, no swivel stand, USB port is not generic.
