guys,im planning to get this screen since im able to get it cheap from a friend..thing is,this model is not sold in malaysia and its so hard to find details on the net..translated one of the texts online and it says
this screen claims to be Full HD..my question is,is it really 1920 X 1080?what does WXGA mean?and i dont get any info at all about the dynamic contrasts etc.anyone can give me a hand?is this screen worth it for a price of 2k+?

ok..then ill try to confirm my purchase tomorrow..very limited stock at the moment..

im abit confused about the name of these BRAVIA series..this particular model is of the BX series or U series??ive tried to google the whole night and honestly it has been very disappointing..since some people mentioned that certain series are not as good as others..

and this model is a 'future' upcoming model?

btw,if u go to this page,

theres only one input for astro,external video devices?isnt that a bit of a hassle?

so the bx400 will eventually reach our shores?this would be a low-mid end model right considering the price?for now im not even sure if the unit i get would be a local model or an import model..the unit is confirmed to be Bravia Engine 3..any advice on what i can check on the screens?i mean im able to get close to it but not touch it yet..

so the full hd isnt actually a 1920 X 1080 resolution but a scaled up version of a 1366×768?

then why do they market it with the Full HD tag?sorry,a bit new to buying LCDs..

eh,dats the model im talking about..looks like it will be reaching soon..btw

motion-ex5
movie-ex4
???-bx4?? basic?

how does the differen series differ from each other since all are Full HD models?

glad to know it is Full HD..im currently using a 29" CRT and was wondering if the 40" LCD would be just slightly bigger due to the nature of a wide screen..

will be going to mid valley to check out the sony outlet there later tonite..hopefully can get some info from there..

thanks alot!seems like the 40" screen is going to be wayyy bigger then my 29" CRT..btw,i was just wondering,whats the USB slot on the tv for?can it play movies downloaded from the internet?MKV files?

just curious, for the high end models,theres this feature called motionflow 100Hz/200Hz/240Hz..those represents the refresh rate of the screen right?how about the entry level models without motion flow?whats the refresh rate like?

60hz for the 40bx400?is it good enough to watch decent movies?definitely better then CRTs right?i dont know why i keep thinking the 40" LCD is almost as big as a 29" CRT..havent seen them side by side though..the website given that day gave me a rough number but everytmie i look at a 40" at the shop im like

"its not that big oso.."

yea ive seen the website..looks alot bigger there but like i mentioned,at the shop,and even on the production line,i dnot know why the screen looks a bit small..maybe its an optical illusion or something..

ive confirmed my KLV-40bx400 purchase..just wondering how god ti would be since its an entry level model..

the retail price here is RM3,299..some shops sell it between the range of 3100-3299..havent seen any below 3k yet..getting my tv on monday..cant wait~~!

hope i wont be disappointed..

haha..be warned that im not 'gifted' with super good eyes and ears to see the little details and differentiate it with another..heck,i couldnt tell the difference between an rm200 speakers and an rm1k one when asked to do so..

and yup,ill be using it for pc as well..primary use will be as the living room tv but i guess no one can ever resist playing games on a 40" screen right?

ive seen some series not sold in malaysia..most of them are 'digital' tvs so u cant use it to receive analog signals here or something like that..even some with the edge LED thing..omg,i know so little about screens..

finally tested my tv today after a very very long wait..was too busy to try it earlier..

well,since i havent subscribed to astro byond..my first reaction was..WTF?why so blur!but after awhile i got used to it and at a certain distance,it didnt look too bad..standard definition is 480 right compared to 1080 of a HD?hope to get the byond unit soon..

i think the tv is not as fun to watch without the motionflow thing..the current refresh rate is around 50Hz only right?but overall im happy with the performance..good sound for such tiny speakers..any other users of this model?
