Review: Sony Bravia KLV-46X350A LCD TV - CNET Asia » Handy Gadgets: Information, news and highlights of handy gadgets for you, the home or travel.

A review of the Sony Bravia KLV-46X350A (46-inch LCD) TV has been posted over at CNET Asia. 'The KLV-46X350A is a near-clone of the original X series. You will still get a floating glass design synonymous with the flagship Bravia as well as other fine touches. For example, there is the illuminated Sony logo, shiny aluminum rims and interchangeable bezel. The latter now comes in six contrasting hues to better match your home deco. On top of the usual selection of black, blue, red, white and silver, you will also have a choice of gold. Other cosmetic variations are a stain-resistant brushed metal finish and a slightly wider form factor primarily due to a pair of side speakers.

The onboard dials and sockets are right where they ought to be, conveniently located on the left for side A/V inputs and corresponding right for TV controls. The selection for the former includes a handy HDMI for the latest HD camcorders and USB for JPEG playback. Given a choice, we would like to have inbuilt provision for swivel options, though there is little to nitpick when it comes to the build of the sturdy L-shaped stand. For the minimalists, a simple hook and a sizeable clip are available on the rear to route and tidy up the usual bundle of snaking cords.'
