Warning : Failed after 1 year, If you have to have a Sony XBR then buy Extended Warranty or BUY another brand – T. Lam – San Jose, CA USA
Here is my story, I hope someone can learn from my tragic error. I just found the LCD panel from Samsung is actually not made by Sony. When you purchase a Sony television because the LCD (the most important and expensive part of the TV) is manufactured by Samsung in Korea. The image can be good, but how long it takes for me ….. past, it took a year and four months. In addition, if you do a simple search on Amazon is that Amazon do not sell directly to the Sony XBR LCD TV I think morehave been many complaints from its customers on their Sony LCD TV. Go take a look and see that you will find Amazon Sony XBR LCD TV sells directly … Amazon refers to another brand like LG and other brands, whether you are looking for a Sony XBR LCD TV ….. and my Full Story below:
5/9/2010- I made the TV Sony's XBR series on Amazon for a year and four months and the TV has failed. The picture quality is amazing that the last image started to deteriorate, and nowIt has all the clouds and rainbow-green image. I called technical service which allows Sony, it cost me $ 75 for services at home because it is no longer under warranty. They also said that if the LCD panel, and would not cost as much as the television itself. It's my first Sony LCD but I have 3 other Sony TV-1 30 "Sony CRT, a 47" XBR rear projection and a 65 "XBR rear-projection TV. All the latest Sony television was not a problem at all and I'm still at 65 'Rear projection TV. What happens to the quality and reliability of Sony product? I think he went to the site as the first evaluation of other Japanese products, like Toyota. They are too busy to reduce costs and reliability, so it can cause rack dollars. So if you like the picture quality of Sony TVs, the council is to buy their extended warranty. I wish I did because when the LCD is not to hang the LCD TV just a big 52 "white on the wall. If youreally, really have a Sony XBR LCD TV, then I would recommend for up to five years extended warranty for $ 299, you save a lot of frustration. And after five years, you probably need an update anyway.
Update 11/05/2010: Today, technology has come and check the LCD display that has one year and four months'. In their words panel technology is a manufacturing defect, why did not fail after more than a year of service and speech, and the SonyTo see how to recover the cost for the panel. 'M Disappointed with the product why not buy a Sony TV, but TV upscale XBR series. I called Sony and told them the whole story, but they told me to fax all documents, conservation and repair cost Sony and evaluate them. I want to wait and see what happens – even if at this point, I am really disappointed and frustrated at all!
Updated: 5/13/2010-Just received a call from SonyToday''customer relationship. It's official, Sony does not stand behind their products. You will not pay the cost of the LCD defective because they are outside the warranty period (one year) after 1 year and 4 months of service. You just lost a loyal customer. No more Sony products in my house. Sony rep has to offer customers a refund of the nerves of $ 900 to $ 3,517.75 cost of repair. It is true, I have to pay $ 2617.76 to pay my LCD $ 2018.88. Therefore, if you buy a Sony TVand you have a broken LCD screen to use for one year, you need a TV running in the basket, that Sony will tell you to go F himself and Trash TV. Good luck to buy a Sony LCD TV because you are going, and it seems that my research, I am not a customer a few years ago defective LCD. In fact, the LCD is not by Sony, but Samsung has made in Korea. Samsung LCD premature failure of their LCD panels known. So, no more, SonyLCD for me or should I say …. Samsung LCD TV

Size of the screen and I still think Sony is as good as the image LED Samsung.
