The full HD resolution Sony XBR-52HX909 52" BRAVIA 1080p LED Television not only creates great looking pictures thanks to its LCD screen and edge LED backlighting, it looks great itself. Its sleek "monolithic" design presents a smooth piano-black rectangle with no buttons sticking out the front that complements any room.

The set's Motionflow 240Hz technology quadruples the standard 60 frames per second for smoother motion detail and clarity. This feature complements its BRAVIA Engine 3, the latest evolution of Sony's picture processing system for superior image detail, exceptionally vibrant, life-like images, reduced noise, and optimized contrast and color.

You have a lot of programming choices these days, (DVD, Blu-ray, cable, satellite, console games and more) and you watch them under a variety of lighting conditions from theater-like darkness to broad daylight. You want a TV that can deliver a vivid, true-to-life image in all conditions.

That's one reason you'll love your XBR-52HX909. Its Ambient Sensor optimizes the set's color to match room lighting while LightSensor Technology optimizes the brightness of the screen to match the room's lighting. As a bonus, if you watch in a dimly lit room, LightSensor will even save you energy and money. No wonder this set is Energy Star-compliant.

Another thing you'll love about your XBR-52HX909 is its Internet connectivity. It has an RJ45 (Ethernet) jack if you want to go the wired route but it's also Wi-Fi adapter ready. Getting online couldn't be easier. It also has an RS-232 port for service or computer control of the TV.

Once you're online you can take advantage of BRAVIA Internet Video to enjoy Netflix, YouTube, Slacker and an ever-expanding number of sites and apps. There are thousands of hours of free content in addition to paid content available. (Not to mention a Parental Control system to limit what the kids see.)

You can also use the set's USB port to share content with family and guests. Plug in a USB compatible device like a flash drive and you can enjoy JPEGs, MP3s, home videos and more, right on your TV. Your XBR-52HX909 is also DLNA (Digital Living Network Alliance) compliant. This is a recent standard that promises to make media sharing even easier and more convenient in the coming months and years. So you've got connectivity today and tomorrow.

And if a family member is hearing impaired or just wants to catch the game in the middle of a noisy party, the closed captioning capability of this unit sure comes in handy. This set can display both analog and the new digital closed captioning from programming sources that provide them.

Finally, the XBR-52HX909 is ready for the next dimension in entertainment whenever you're ready to take the plunge. All you need is a pair (or two) of active shutter 3D glasses and an emitter to step right into the action.
