Customer Ratings & Reviews

Perfect size for a bedroom. Apps work pretty good. I only use netflix and youtube, they work fine. The best part is the picture quality, compared to my 65in Sharp, Sony is better. They are cheaper TV's out there, but if you like quality and don't mind spending extra cash go for this TV. The only con is it takes a couple of seconds to power on, annoying when you want to switch inputs.

The only thing I don't like about it is how long it takes to "power on". Takes WAY longer than necessary. I guess I don't like how long it takes to think in general sometimes, but I don't know how much of it is because of the quality of my WiFi connection. I don't have a great connection sometimes. I have it in a super tiny space so I don't need a sound bar. Good picture quality.

I got this TV for the bedroom to replace my old 40 inch Samsung LCD. The picture on this TV is really good. With that said, it does have minimal blooming during dark scenes but that is to be expected of LED's. I also don't like how this TV takes a while to power on before you can watch any programming or access smart features. Lastly, you can't mirror your tablet or phone to this set unless it's a Sony tablet or phone, which is really annoying. I download a lot of movies on my tablet and love the ability to mirror them to my TV without having to use an cables. All in all though, I do think this is the best 40 inch tv in its class for picture quality which to me is the most important aspect of any tv.

Good tv overall. Has a lag when powering on; takes a while to be ready to change channels and/or use the apps

I got the KDL40-W600B online here for $429.99, with free shipping to store, plus tax. I've had it now for three months, since 9/14/14. I write this review because reviews here helped me to know what to expect in real homes, not just store displays, and helped me decide on this TV. I'll mention here primarily the items I wasn't able to find in reviews when I was shopping. Yes, the picture is excellent, but requires a few tweaks. Using calibration gear, I arrived at the following custom settings; backlight=Max, picture=85; brightness=50; color=47; hue=0; color temp=neutral; sharpness=20; everything else off or 0 except reality creation=Auto and in the advanced settings>white balance menu, R-Gain= -12. This gives a well balanced picture across all TV channels and DVDs, and prevents red "clay facing" so you can see faces and not just exaggerated makeup. Try these, but your results and preferences may differ. Technically this reduces color over-saturation, particularly the in the reds. This TV's over-the-air reception is by far the best among four other TV receivers we have, but tuning is slow. Smart TV features work fine, but i have a PC for that and find them easier to use on the PC. A few gripes, but I'll mention just two. No sleep button on the remote. Although the last channel plays within seconds after the TV is turned on, all features are not available until about 30 seconds when the TV is fully powered on. I bought this TV mainly for its excellent picture quality for the price, and for that it delivers superbly.

This is a great product but the one thing I found annoying is the time it takes to load up an app and just power on. Also it will disconnect randomly from the router especially if idle for a while.
