Sony KDL42W653 42-inch HD LED 1080p Smart TV Review (PlayStation Now, Netflix, Youtube etc)

I bought this Sony Bravia TV in November 2013, so I had a bit of time to try it out and so far I'm really happy with it. I mainly use it to stream content via Netflix and to watch Youtube videos with it. So in this video I break down some of my thoughts, demo some of the features and I also show the TV from the back to show how all the plugs and connectors are positioned.
If you have any questions in regard to the TV, please let me know in the comment section below. I'd be happy to help.

A quality TV for everyone

The car's washed, your daughter's been chauffeured to the shops and your wife's upstairs doing, well, whatever they do upstairs. The sitting room is free. Free for you to sit down, put your feet up and enjoy the Man United v Barcelona game in peace on your W650.

Rooney takes a shot, the football retains its detail as it flies through the air thanks to X-Reality PRO. But now Messi is dribbling up field, the crowd roars, the Bass Reflex Box speaker directing every frequency straight to your seat -- it's like you're actually in the stadium. The ball is heading goalwards, you are on your feet...It's over.

It's all over. They're back. Your youngest strolls in and takes over the screen using smartphone screen mirroring to look at photos and videos on the TV. Your wife makes her way downstairs and before you know it, everyone's there. Even your eldest, a Skype video call sees her appear as large as life, smiling at where you once saw the beautiful game unfold.

Bring your picture to life

See each strike at goal, every dribble up field, exactly as it should be -- in smooth and sharp detail. X-Reality PRO adds an extra dimension of image clarity to everything you watch. Drawing on a database of information which incorporates thousands of patterns collected from video images all over the world, it analyses and enhances every image -- it's especially good with faces and skin tone as shapes instantly become more defined.
Mirror your smartphone on your TV

Check the scores from other games, watch the highlights, there's plenty more you can see on the big screen. Screen mirroring* lets you connect your smartphone or tablet wirelessly to your TV -- so you can enjoy photos, videos, apps, web pages and games in super-size. Use your smartphone to swipe, enlarge, move and select content, while everyone enjoys the show. Even the sound from your smartphone comes through loud and clear on the TV speakers.

*Screen mirroring is compatible with Wi-Fi CERTIFIED Miracast mobile devices

There's more too, with TV SideView, you can use your smartphone or tablet to learn more about the show you're watching right now, like cast and episode details. Easily browse and discover more content -- from related TV shows and Internet videos to apps, websites and recorded shows stored on other devices.

Bring some style to your living room

Before the game, the camera swoops across the stadium -- look at the sleek lines and curvature of its modern design. Your TV has the same kind of attention to detail. A slim panel design with smooth surfaces adds a sense of style to any room. You can even use the stand as a wall mount. An Intelligent Core that gently illuminates and changes colour depending on the source of the content you're watching, whether it's a TV or a DVD. It's another striking visual element to enhance your living room.
Let the sound come to you

Hear the roar of the crowd like you're actually in the stadium. The Bass Reflex Box speaker directs every frequency straight at you. This compact speaker delivers extended low frequencies and clear, sparkling highs. A specially-positioned reflector plate directs sound from the speaker cone straight to the viewer and an acoustic isolation design cuts down on unwanted vibration and resonance.
