Strengths: amazing picture quality
Weaknesses:I have had my Bravia for 6 months. I now have a major problem. It has what I belive is a dead spot or a bad pixel. It shows up as a black spot on the screen about the size of a peanut m&m and about the same shape. I have looked it up and it looks like it is non-repairable. I will have to deal with Sony. it is under the one year limited warr. I hope they will do something for me.
Overall Evaluation: with the exception of the pixel issue, it is excellent. but you may want to consider the extended warranty for a year, at least.

Strengths: color accuracy, brightness, image quality in brightly lite room
Weaknesses:some artifacts in high-speed movement
Overall Evaluation: This unit is a replacemnt for a 50" SXRD that I previously thought to be the best set in the world. The SXRD died a painful death. The 52XBR4 apepars to keep almost all of the positives of the SXRD, but the picture is a bit birther yet, and the depth of the set enables wall mount - a BIG PLUS!
All in all, this may be the best that I have seen - period.
Summary - a bit pricy, a bit heavy for a LCD flat panel, a bit slow in input switching, BUT still a most excellent set. BTW - the digital tuner works excellent with Verizon FIOS.

Strengths: Sony Quality , Picture , Color Depth , Styling
Weaknesses:None
Overall Evaluation: Great TV - XBR 5's are out now so you can get a decent deal on this set - I have been a Sony Fan for many years - integrated this set with a Sony AV 5.1 Surround receiver with a Standard Def Sony DVD player - Picture is awesome , can only imagine what it will be with my future Blue Ray Player - Only hooked up to standard Def Comcast for now and have no complaints . Looking forward to many years of enjoyment out of this 52 " set - Makes the living room better than the movie theater .

Strengths: Incredible Picture Quality (HD and SD), Picture & Picture, All the ports you need, Intuitive Menu, Great Design
Weaknesses:Menu could be faster
Overall Evaluation: This TV is incredible! I have seen numerous HDTVs and the picture quality on this one blows all the others out of the water. The non-HD material looks really good as well. I have never seen an HDTV to rival a regular TV at displaying 480i (regular cable) signals but this one does it!It has numerous connections and includes features that make it futureproof for many years (such as 1080p/24 and some color features that only the PS3 can currently support)Bottom line: The pinnacle of television viewing

Strengths: Quality design and features such as ample HDMI and Composite connections.
Weaknesses:A little pricy but if you shop around you can find some good deals.
Overall Evaluation: I purchased this TV from LCD TVs after shopping around for about a month. Had one of the best prices at the time, free shipping and some good reviews. I received the TV in an amazing two days in perfect condition from a friendly delivery man. This is highly unusual as it is normally 5 - 10 working days unless you want to pay more. I received a phone call within 24 hours and a confirmation email almost immediately. They of course tried to sell me some accessories like an extended warranty, cables and wall mount but where not push about it. I had already purchased these products from other sites as I am a little picky in what I buy. Overall I was surprisingly impressed with the whole ordeal.
