Sony KDL-55W805C LED TV Review

While it's largely a sideways move from 2014's W829, the Sony KDL-55W805C is tremendous value for money in terms of picture quality.

Sony W800B Review (KDL50W800B, KDL55W800B)

4.0

The Sony W800B is a really good TV for gamers. Its only major flaw is the loss of color saturation when viewed at an angle.

Sony KDL-55W805C

We take a look at the Sony W805C with a 55-inch HD screen, Android TV and X-Reality Pro. But at £999 for a 1920x1080p TV it seems expensive given the current 4K budget TVs.
