SONY BRAVIA KDL40W605 or VIERA TX-40AS640B ?

[Jumpy Guy]

As above , I think I've narrowed down to the above.

Any opinions one way or the other ?

General use, films and Xbox occasionally

When I was in the market for a TV it came down to Sony or Panasonic. I chose Panasonic because there was a deal which included a Blu Ray player and a few disks.

The Sony is £50 cheaper than the Panasonic at John Lewis.

The majority in my house are Panasonic's very pleased with them. I would buy from John Lewis they will also price match with Richer Sounds - just got my 42" version from John Lewis.

Excellent service, Will always try and use them, Only regret i should of gone for 50" -

Flossy, the Sony isn't on the john Lewis website, can you give me a link?

Thanks!

I would give JL the model number and see if they can match, they stock what they cant always display

We went for a Viera (50") at the start of the year, can't fault it really, choosing a non-Smart version meant we could go for a larger size in our budget, something I'm glad we did. Besides, we've got the Xbox and a BT box for any "smart" things we want to do!
