if you're looking for a TV under $1,000 and from our poll we know that about one in five of our readers are then this is one of the models you should be looking out for hi I'm Ty Pendlebury and this is a review of the Sony exc television this is one of Sony's mid-range models and in many ways it's much better than the more expensive HX 750 with the only real difference being that the ax 640 doesn't have 3d this is an edge lip television with a decent set of features this TV is slowly being superseded by the e x 645 though but the only difference is that the other one has onboard wireless while this TV has a wireless USB dongle otherwise they're pretty much identical this TV has smart TV but the menu system is quite simple and arguably better with easy access to Netflix and Hulu you can also access Sony's Entertainment Network if you subscribe to its music and movie services the design of the TV is quite smart with an attractive stippled bezel and a swivel stand picture quality is very good for the money and better than Samsung's mid-range competitor the es 6500 black levels are fairly deep for an LCD though shadow detail could be a little better color saturation is excellent but the colors aren't as accurate as they could be if you need a decently performing LCD and don't need 3d then the e X 640 and 645 are very good choices I'm ty Pendlebury from cnet.com
