Sony Bravia L-Series HDTVs provide vivid 720p resolution and dynamic contrast ratios of 13,000:1 (the 26-inch model) and 13,000:1 (for 32-inch model), with several versatile sizes perfect for the budget-conscious consumer or anyone wanting an HDTV that works well in the bedroom, kitchen, or office. Bravia L-Series HDTVs have a wealth of HD connections, including three HDMI inputs. Each HDMI input transmits uncompressed digital video and multi-channel digital audio on a single cable, so you can expand your home theater system without a lot of messy wires. Also included is a PC input that lets you use your HDTV as a computer monitor. If you need to streamline your HD components further, the Bravia L-Series HDTVs feature Bravia Sync technology and are compatible with optional Bravia Link Modules such as the Bravia Wireless Link, which wirelessly streams HD video and audio from your A/V equipment to your HDTV from up to 65 feet away. You might expect that more features mean more power consumption, but Bravia L-Series HDTVs include a Dynamic Backlight Control which automatically controls overall image brightness to help the TV exceed ENERGY STAR 3.0 standards.

Today I go to Best Buy to see the 32" LCD TVs. Sony 32L5000 is one of the worst two 32" TVs I had seen there. (Another one is a unknown brand TV.) Best Buy play the same TV show on all the TVs, so it's quite easy to tell the difference. 32L5000 has terrible detail. Much worse than Samsung LN32B360, LG 32LH20, Toshiba, Sharp, etc. If you really liked SONY, buy some higher level SONYs. Never never try this entry level SONY. You don't have to believe me, just go to some retail stores and trust your own eyes.

Be aware if you buy one of these that it may not last long. I bought the Model KDL-32L4000 in November 2008. Nine months later the screen went blank and the TV could not be turned off nor would any other controls or buttons work. Fried after nine months. Before you buy check the Bravia series info online - clearly there is a problem either with the design or the manufacture of these. Looks nice until it dies young.

My 1st LCD TV and I bought the Sony name. (It used to stand for Quality, alas, not anymore.)
My 1st two months I would shrug off the following: It would work beautifully for a few days then, out of the blue, I couldn't turn it back ON again. Neither remote control nor OFF/ON switch would work. I tried disconnecting the power chord from the wall outlet and replugged it back in after some 20 seconds. (Like rebooting a misbehavin' computer, it would work.) Then intermitently after a few minutes, I could not turn it back ON without unplugging and replugging or it would work OK for a few days and then start again.
Finally, sick and tired of being my own remote control (for exercise, I go to the gym; I don't to walk to and from the TV set so often) I took to the Local Service Centre where after my whole explanation as above, the young lady wrote down, "TV doesn't work." I stopped and told her to PLEASE put down the symptoms as I had carefully explained. She put down "Intermitently --actually she wrote down intermittenly but I knew she meant intermitently-- will not Turn ON.
That was on a Sat. 08AUG. On Fri 14AUG I call and am told that it was "repaired", Reseated the Connections. Tested OK. I pick it up. It works fine on Friday evening. Sat morning, guess what? It works OK. (The service centre closes at noon) Guess what happens after 1201? Yup. Again with the same annoying behaviour. Same thing Sunday. Monday morning 17 AUG, today I show up again and they're trying to make me look like I don't know how to turn a TV ON. "It worked OK on Friday!!!" Excuse me. Do you hear what I'm saying? It is STILL behaving the same exact way as when I brought it in and explained it to you. IF I UNPLUG IT AND REPLUG IT, IT W I L L WORK. I had to unplug it from the outlet at home to bring it to you. I don't have an extension cord that's seven kilometers long and I don't think your technician will come to my home 24/7 when the inevitable happens again. They have the technician come out to me to explain that he had repaired it and that it worked. He tells me that for five (5) days he had been turning it OFF and ON and that not onle did it fail. That it was working. I replied, "Well it's NOT working. I've spent the weekend walking to and from the TV set." nAnd then I notice that on the work order where it says "Tested OK", their dates were as follows (Remember, I took it to them on the 08th of August.)
Date in: 8/14 Started: 8/14 Repaired: 8/14
I guess the difference between the first 8/14 and the last 8/14 a time machine must have been involved to make it five days in one.
I don't want to hear the word "Sony" or "Bravia" again.

We purchased this television for our bedroom. I read previous reviews on Amazon and this influenced our purchase. Previously we purchased the Sony Bravia 52" 1080 from Amazon and were extremely happy with the picture quality. I highly recommend both televisions.

I bought this TV at Best Buy for $447. Was surprised at how light it was, especially compared to the 25" tube TV it was replacing. Anyway, got it out of the box, attached the stand, attached the cables and it was ready to go. Automatic setup took less than 5 minutes, and even found HD channels I didn't know I had (Explanation: I have Time Warner cable and this would just be plugged directly into the coax with no cable box. Previously I was only seeing about 70 SD channels, this TV found about 90 SD and about 10 HD channels, so I was pleasantly surprised.)
The picture quality is great, sound is good, menu and operations are fairly straightforward and intuitive. Only reason I docked it one star is because the remote is only compatible with Sony products (Bravia specifically). I still need to keep my old remote to work the DVD player that will be used with this TV. Selfishness and greediness gets a one star deduction.
One sticky point, the "Favorites" menu lists the raw channel number, and rearranges then depending on which one is currently being viewed. How do I know what channel 112.1113 is?? I choose it to find out, then go back to the list and they are all rearranged...
