    We have always liked Sony's quality, but the price is often higher than we are willing to pay. This time, at RC Willey, we were able to get BOTH a Fantastic TV and a Great Price - plus interest free financing!

    We selected this TV because it fit our limited wall space, and have a smaller Sony HDTV that we like. This TV easily mounted flat with standard lg TV mount. Found it very easy to set up with the new Sony theater sound bar system and Sony Blu-ray DVD.

    The picture is great! No issues. The delivery was right on time and the delivery folks put the TV on my stand and made sure it worked before they left and setup was easy. I suspected that the TV's sound may lack good bass because of the small hidden speakers, however the specifications said it had a...

Description
Sony KDL-55EX720 TV

Live on the edge with the Sony KDL-55EX720 TV, which incorporates the best of what 21st century TV technology has to offer in one super-slim set. Complete with both 3D and wireless Internet capabilities, the freedom to enjoy your favorite multimedia entertainment is literally in your hands by using a Sony remote or smartphone to decide what you want to watch.

Lifelike 3D action takes place right before your eyes in your home theater or lounge area – all you need to do is put on a pair of hi-tech 3D glasses to watch smooth and natural 3D video. You can connect with your friends over social media platforms such as Facebook, and browse the web while you enjoy live HD TV. You can even talk to your friends on the TV, with free video calls on your Sony KDL-55EX720 TV over Skype. With all of this interactive viewing power, you’ll hardly need to use your laptop – and paying top dollar at the cinema will certainly be a thing of the past.

Wireless Internet: Set Yourself Free

There are several HD TVs on the market that boast Internet connectivity features – but few provide the same flexibility as the Sony KDL-55EX720 TV. First time setup is easy, as the TV is complete with wireless capabilities – thanks to this, there’s no more fiddling around with unsightly cables. Your TV will swiftly detect your home wireless broadband connection, and from there you can get linked up within seconds. You can then browse the Internet as you like, with no limitations on what you can search for on the web, or boundaries on the websites you can visit. Unlike with other HD TVs, you aren’t confined to multimedia content.

Ready, Set, Go!

Fast-moving action play has never looked crisper in HD; the Motionflow XR 200 capabilities of the Sony KDL-55EX720 TV allow for virtually blur-free image movement across the 55-inch widescreen. Action is displayed at a rate of 200 frames per second, and motion play is made even more beautiful with the 1080p HD high resolution of the TV. For the sports lover, this is ideal: with a moving picture so clear, you will feel like you’re at the game itself. All you need now are your friends to cheer along with!

Action movies also look incredible, with the instilled visual effects of the films boosted to the max. The elimination of screen judder also helps to make every special effect look fantastic. For a HD picture that projects brilliantly, the Sony KDL-55EX720 TV won’t disappoint.

Adding Another Dimension

If you’re reading this, you’re no doubt fascinated by the opportunities presented by 3D TV technology. It’s also likely you haven’t experienced such a home TV system before. It’s understandable if you’re feeling slightly skeptical about what 3D in the home can offer, especially if you only remember the shouty, unsophisticated 3D graphics of a decade or so ago. However, in terms of absolute quality, the 3D display offered by the Sony KDL-55EX720 TV is hard to beat. From a wide viewing angle, simply put on your 3D glasses to have an amazing 3D movie experience. Wraparound graphics place you at the center of the story, and 3D 24p True Cinema software keeps images natural and smooth. A rich depth is provided in all 3D presentations to create a realistic scene with many layers before your eyes. Simply connect a 3D Blu-ray player to the TV and you’re ready to watch incredible 3D movies at the click of a button.

Who Needs a Controller?

The Sony KDL-55EX720 TV comes with a Sony remote control that has a range of built-in functions that are ready to use. This does the job of controlling TV straight from your sofa fantastically. However, more often than not, remote controls have a habit of hiding under armchairs and ending up in the toy box (we’re sure they have legs). Sony has eliminated this hassle by creating a smartphone remote control program. This app, known as Media Remote, can be downloaded for free so you can conveniently change the TV channel, adjust the volume and use a broad range of handy functions – all on your cell.

Slim and Streamlined

The designers at Sony know you want a TV that’s going to look superb in your home theater. That’s why they’ve incorporated intelligent Edge LED technology into the Sony KDL-55EX720 TV. This feature utilizes tiny lights around the edge of the screen, rather than behind it, allowing for a slimmer TV set. From every point of view your TV will look ultra-modern with noticeably less bulk. The widescreen of the Sony KDL-55EX720 TV is surrounded by a thin border to provide just the right amount of frame space. With a glossy black finish, the TV will complement any color scheme.

In addition to all of the above, the Sony KDL-55EX720 TVis Energy Star qualified and, with average usage, operates at a cost of approximately $18 a year depending on your utility rates. Over the lifespan of this TV, that adds up to quite a significant savings! The limitless wireless Internet capabilities of the Sony KDL-55EX720 TV sets it apart from the crowd. With such a stunning 3D TV as the centerpiece of your home cinema, you will soon be the talk of the town.
