\nThe picture on this TV will depend a lot on the picture mode you select. We recommend you use the \u201cCalibrated\u201d Picture Mode if you are not going to professionally calibrate the TV. It’s actually pretty solid. Black levels are reasonably saturated, and the TV certainly has plenty of brightness in whites thanks to the backlight. Image edges don’t compete with some of the better Sony TVs on the market, but they were far from bad. We did not see much value in the \u201cSmart Dimming\u201d feature.
