'The Sony KDL-HX800 series is the company's least expensive to feature 3D compatibility. '

'The Sony KDL-46HX800 was easy to calibrate, as putting it in Cinema mode seemed to put it pretty close to the mark for our calibration standards.'

'The KDL-55HX800 has an MSRP of $3,399.99, but it's now being sold through www.sonystyle.com and other outlets for around $2,800, which is competitive with similarly equipped models from Samsung and LG that are also 3D-ready.'

'The VGA port has also been relocated to the side of the TV which is more convenient given the fact that vga cables protrude quite a bit and can be a problem if the HDTV is mounted on the wall.'
