42 Sony KDL42W653 Full HD 1080p Freeview HD Smart LED TV

With pioneering picture quality, impressive surround sound and Freeview viewing, the Sony BRAVIA KDL42W653 Smart 42” LED TV is the perfect home entertainment system in a smaller frame.

Pin-sharp picture

From close up detail of a tiger's fur in a wildlife documentary to a quick shot of the dance floor at a wedding taken on your mobile phone, what we watch on our TVs comes from all sorts of places these days. X-Reality PRO from Sony makes sure you always get the best picture quality.

It works by cleverly analyzing the scene on the TV and comparing it to an extensive database of images, sharpening edges and refining detail to give an enhanced picture in nano seconds. Now you'll see the individual hairs on a tiger's back and your wedding snaps will be clear, even if your memory is a bit fuzzy. In fact no matter what you watch you'll see a lot more with X-Reality PRO.

The KDL42 also matches real-world colours, exhibiting a wide spectrum from vibrant and vivid hues to delicately detailed tones and shadings. It will enhance documentaries, epic films, video games and more.

Motionflow

Able to keep up with even the fastest athlete's movements, the TV incorporates Motionflow XR technology, specially designed for smoother and more natural fast on-screen motion.

Motionflow from Sony reduces blur and judder to show each moving image as smooth as possible. Now your favourite athlete remains as sharp and detailed in full flow as they were on the starting blocks.

Economical performance

Made by energy-efficient processes and featuring power-saving technology, the 42” BRAVIA KDL 42W653 Smart LED TV saves you energy and money.

The set raises and lowers backlight brightness just where it's needed onscreen to save energy and deliver higher contrast than regular LED TVs. Dynamically edge-lit, local or frame dimming adjust brightness according to content for powerful static contrast.

Scene Optimised Energy Saving adjusts LED backlight timing and level for the optimum viewing settings and image quality, providing energy savings of up to 30% compared to normal viewing.

Slim and beautiful

With its slim form, the BRAVIA KDL42W653 LED TV demonstrates a new way to merge your television with your living room.

Airy and light, it merges top-quality materials with seamless edges. This TV boasts a form defined by sleek lines, a slim yet durable Gorilla Glass screen, smoothly integrated sound systems, a six-degree tilt and beautifully contrasted anti-reflective glass and brushed aluminium.

This minimalistic design lets you see more picture and less frame, and the clean and tidy brushed steel easel legs both complement the TV's style and perfectly support it – even letting you tilt it back and forth or swivel it left and right for the best viewing angle.

The stand doubles as a wall mount for this TV, giving you the freedom to set it up as you choose.

Expand your entertainment

Enjoy films and games in stunning HD by connecting a Blu-ray player or Playstation to one of the multiple HDMI connections. You could even connect a USB device to your BRAVIA TV and enjoy films, photos or music directly.
