Performance
Let me get to the point (boy, do I love saying that!) The color of the picture is enchanting, to say the least. All the features claimed actually do make that bit of difference which triggers a sale. I also liked the contrast and brightness, which looked great.

All this was being measured on the stock material available in our test disc. There were scenes of landscapes and animated flowers etc, which reminded me of previous holidays (that was a long time ago!) Motion scenes were good, though not in the same level of excellence as the previous factors. Jaggies, noise were quite minimal, though present.

I did not like how the sharpness sometimes gets into overkill mode and overwhelms certain video and game footage, even in 1080p native mode. Slight haloing is visible around the figures. So I turned the sharpness level way down into negative territory, which made a tolerable compromise. The menu and operations are very comprehensive, and the cinema mode was cool; it did alter the film a bit to make it look more appealing.

Conclusion
This TV has some insanely good factors to tip the balance into making us like it. I’m going to give it a positive rating as it deserves it, though unfortunately it missed out on a 4 or a 4.5 due to a few inadequacies (and the price: Rs 1,85,000). It’s expensive, so budget consumers might need to look at Sony’s lower-end stuff, which is also good. Rest assured, I’ll call for a piece soon for review.

you should be watching KLV46x3100, (full HD 1080p)connect a PS3 on HDMI and watch a Blueray DVD, with a 7.1 sound system, you will never go to a theater again.

I do not have money even to buy a 26 inch LCD, but I can see that samsung's LA46M81B (Mosel Blaque, 46 inch) is much better than the above two. The dynamic contrast is 15000:1 (real contrast should be atleast 2000:1), and it costs less than LA46F71B or this sony equivalent.

My favorite is LA40M81B, costs much lesser (Rs.120,000), provides same resolution and 40 inch to 46 inch isnt something thats worth paying 50% more money. But as mentioned, check with others, I cant afford any of these panels now, and my comments are based on website information.
