Sony Bravia: LCD goes supersize

Fans of LCD TVs: here comes a slice of heaven. Traditionally the size domain of plasmas, this 52-inch beast boasts all the very latest LCD technology to deliver a stellar performance. The headline feature is Motionflow 200Hz, which inserts extra frames to make motion silky smooth. Sony's flagship image processing is also on hand, teasing out extraordinary detail and contrast. The very fastest movement is still a challenge, but with sumptuous colours and inky blacks like this, it's forgiven. Only the current high price causes a pang of disappointment. ·
