I researched which new TV to get for several months. I went back and forth between Plasma and LCD or LED. I went to all the usual stores and looked at the TV’s side by side, trying to figure out which picture I liked the best. For a larger TV (bigger than 55″) I liked the Sony 60EX500 the best. The colors looked the most natural to me. Some of the LED sets, the colors seemed a bit too bright and exagerated.
I have had the set about 5 days now, and I spent all Sunday watching TV. I watched a bunch of sports in HD. I watched some football that looked great. I watched some baseball that was so clean, it was better than being there. I watched some golf, and the details on the greens and course made me think I could read the puts as good as the caddies.
I watched a couple episodes of Wild Russia with the kids, and the colors were so bright and clean, while the blacks were dark but didn’t bleed at all. I even watched the 5th Element in HD, and was amazed at how great that movie still is all these years later.
Overall, the picture quality is very clean and realistic. I was very impressed with the black levels of this set as well. To me, it had the best picture quality and features for the price.

Recommend it highly!!!!

Pros:
- Standrard definition picture quality is “almost” as good as HD.
- Decent sound
- Decent viewing angle
Cons:
- Does not swivel
- Because this is a big screen tv with only 120Hz refresh rate, motion blur is very much noticeable.
Conclusion:
If you’re going to buy a big screen tv, stay away from lcd’s as motion blur becomes very much apparent as you move up screen sizes. Next time I’ll have to buy a plasma instead.
