SONY Sony KDL-42W700B 42-inch Full HD LED LCD TV

The previous TV Panasonic plasma has been used for more than 5 years (G10 series). (To write a draft at night and suddenly curious about how many hours the TV has opened, enter the engineering mode to look at, 5369 boot time 5 years, start 5520 times, count It took us 5.1 hours a day to switch 3 times a day.) It was often not enough for me to watch my TV. I decided to buy a TV in my bedroom.

Panasonic's plasma has shrunk, VT series (as it was defined in the past: V: Very good, great; G: Good, good; S: Standard, standard; U: Usable, can make) has long disappeared, there are still some stocks on Taobao , But far away, plus 300 to the freight, can only blame Panasonic not advance.

Then there was a 2 week long grass for Xiaomi TV, 4K/3D/50 inch/single audio/built-in millet box.... Studying for a long time, because it was to put the bedroom, the independent sound was useless. To connect the living room Panasonic plasma seems to be wrong interface. Forum soak a few days and saw a wide range of issues overwhelmingly complained vowed never to buy millet... Although millet normal high-frequency various beta upgrade, but this is not the rhythm of the mouse . Still decided to give up all kinds of inapplicable functions and return to the fundamentals.

Now on the ZDM all kinds of KEYWORD to find it again, this year, it seems that is 42W700 pushed many times. The price is also awkward diving. March 4.5K, April 4.3K, to early May to 4K, June 3.6~ 3.8K, July 3.6 stable, by August, is already 3.4k back to 200 ..., as a solani in the bedroom, this price and SIZE has been acceptable, is the same size plasma 1/3 .... .

In Gome / Suning / Jingdong have joined the shopping cart, waiting for the payment close to the weekend. It is also good luck, the next night Gome dropped to 3199. Immediately orders, about Sunday delivery. Interlude is issued immediately after the order Breaking the news, the result Xiaobian 20 minutes later said that the price has reached 4299 ... broke the news, I'm sorry everyone.

At the same time is to consider how to send the video to the bedroom. The available sources of the bedroom are interrupted in various upgrades in the past 10 years (mainly after the radio and television exchange of high-definition, the coaxial cable was cut). Can only consider pulling from the living room Come out. So this issue harassed several nights on Taobao ups and downs to 12 points. The DISH referred to in the previous article was the focus of this time. Because there is only one HDMI output, the color difference is also used by SLING. One HDMI 1 in 2 out, all the way out. Then discovered that there is a novelty HDMI TO RJ45 stuff, the high-definition video into the RJ45 interface through HDMI into the HDMI output in the receiving end. Each sending / receiving end is 200 Block. This is not convenient, it does not need extra cables and can be sent to every room... When you almost want to place an order, suddenly you see that this item requires a separate router and cannot be routed to the networked network SHARE. In this way, do not use more than 4 power supply devices. Finally, using the most original method, bought a 15-meter HDMI and walked around the corner. In the ointment, the line is too thick.

Everything is ready, only the TV wall. Sunday until 5 pm before delivery, Sauni customer service said today can not be on the wall. The wall the next afternoon.

Sonny's customer service brother Lili unpacking, took out the machine, did not have time to make a few ass. However, a variety of television sun bills are many, behind the same, the key is to see if there is no color in front. Hang a little high , so there are screen shots from all angles, some shot at night, all dark.

Metal matte border, seams are delicate.

The first time the TV is to be initialized, set up the network, download the data of China.

menu:

Network selection .2 chooses 1 and only one connection at a time.

No application, but no need.

Have a look at the Internet to have any good experience

The answer is no. The input is inconvenient. It is difficult to locate quickly without a mouse. It is better to use a wireless keyboard and mouse, but it is not convenient to look at the computer.

The number of Chinese UI,

Most of the videos in the video are for Pay Per View, and the monthly subscription is 15th. Discard it.

USB/HOME NETWORK, need to open the NAS DLNA to find, and video format support is not very comprehensive. Obviously than to buy an external box trouble.

Sonny's electronic photo frame is also tasteless.

A bit of music, Baidu + meters

Baidu's UI is simple. SIMPLY BEST

TV section:
Input selection, this menu can not be customized. You can only press one by one.

There is a light sensor, but did not feel that the screen brightness automatically changes with the external brightness.

Hard to see a regular wake-up. However, after a regular wake-up, you can only choose a tuned channel number, I would like to ask now you need to tune it. Then it became a tasteless.

There was a bright light below. It was too dazzling in the evening, and it was the winner. It could be closed.

Fast boot options, with environmental protection, if you want to quickly boot to be able to use most of the features, will consume more power in standby. Test off the next fast boot option, when the boot has 10 to 15 seconds can not change the video input .

It is said that there is PIP function, but unfortunately can not be two digital input at the same time around the display. The combination can only be one way HDMI plus one color or all the way to tune. There are only two HDMI inputs, but also do not have access to birds.

The screen does not seem to go away, it should be the reason of direct type LED?

The black level does not perform as well as the plasma, of course, the reflective problem, the plasma lose.

After two SCREEN SHOT screens, after setting the same parameters on the screen, the HankS jeans and the background in the LED do not have boundaries at all. The plasma can better represent these details.

Face detail, LETTERS, LED is a bit sharper. The two figures are above the LED, the following is the PDP. Now I think that sharp is more lovable.

This 42W7 panel, I believe AUO's VA screen. .

Foreign HDTVTest website Benchmark (based on 42W705B) as shown below: (source can refer to the last link)

Personal feeling of use, in general, convenience is good, the chassis at the same time to do the rack is also innovative. Because it is a bracket-based installation, you need to connect the HDMI cable, the TV can be hung on the wall can be very convenient Lift from below to any position.

Appearance material, less than 1CM frame, matte metal shell, feel good, no fingerprint problems, the upper thickness of about a hairy coin, no obvious heat.

In terms of color, I was satisfied with the black color. I had seen the leakage of the LCD in my friend's home. It made me think that I would always use plasma. Looking at the LED is also quite good. The adjustment of the color attributes should improve the overall visual effect.

Extensibility is general, support SONY's products is better, can only be installed from the Opera TV store application, there is a mobile phone remote control application for iOS/Android. LAN playback requires DLNA device support.

Use, the boot response is slower. Probably because the settings need to be initialized. The other menu can not be customized, select the input source will be a bit confusing, if you can put unwanted input SKIP / hidden, while changing the input source name, at a glance will be more convenient .

The remote control that comes with the machine doesn't feel very good. In addition to the four arrow keys, the other buttons are the same too soft material. Considering the price, it is still acceptable. By the way, this goods remote control code actually and millet box second generation The remote control is exactly the same. When selecting the millet box as input, the TV cannot be controlled. .

To sum up, start with a price of 3200 pieces. In addition to the 120 service fees installed on the wall, the others are worth the money back.
Finally sent a hilarious screen shot.

Thank you and Good Night.
