I'm very pleased with my purchase. I tend to always go for Sony products for the quality and the looks and this one does not disappoint. Not much to say on it that hasn't been said in previous reviews but I did want to mention the fantastic service I recieved from Amazon. The TV was delivered on time but unfortunately it was faulty - never had that happen before! I informed Amazon and in less that 24 hours I had a replacement TV....which does work! Great service as always, thanks Amazon.
KDL-20S3000 Sony 20 inch Television July 31, 2008

Hi.
I spent two weeks reserching 19 and 20inch LCD Televisions.I got down to a short list of JVC-Philips-Samsung-LG and Sony.I ended up with the Sony KDL-20S3000 after reading all the previous reports.
Amazon was very good.I ordered it on the Saturday 26th July and it was delivered Wednesday Morning the 30th,bearing in mind I did not pay extra for next day delivery.
I had already read all of the manual on line while waiting delivery so it did not take long to install and set up when it arived.It is up to all expectations as the previous reviews state,no more I can add.
I am normally a Panasonic man but as Panasonic do not make this size television I had to look elseware.When it becomes time to upgrade my lounge television I will be looking at Sony with interest,as a long loyal Panasonic customer I may become a Sony one instead.

No regrets July 16, 2008

I was looking for a good sized, HD ready TV for my bedroom. I had done a lot of research into TV's and i had a lot of requirements, such as at least 720p native resolution and at least 1080i input sources, HDMI, a way of using it as a second monitor for my PC, multiple scart sockets etc. This TV's brilliant for the money. The picture quality is great even watching standard TV (flat screens aren't good at non-native resolutions), the sound quality is brilliant, a lot better than i expected, as usually small speakers in flat screens produce a tinny sound, this doesn't. Theres a lot of settings for both picture and sound to get the most out of what you are watching.
The built-in freeview works great and the EPG on it is easy to use. I have my PC connected to it via component cables as i bought a wall mount that fits 200x100 VESA standard and it covers the VGA and audio out connections, that is my only issue, but that is down to the wall mount, not the TV. If you plan to use the VGA and/or audio out connections and have the TV on the wall, make sure the mount only goes up to the 100x100 VESA standard so it won't block/cover them.
DVD's look great on it (especially that i used to have a 15" TV), and HD even better. I have no regrets buying this TV.
'Oozes Sony Quality' July 7, 2008

Only had it for about an hour but very impressed so far.
Previously had a 15" SD Sony Bravia but inevitably this is far, far better. I've just played some PS3 on it with after purchasing a Sony HDMI cable and it really does produce fantastic next gen gaming, very slick. Agree with most of the comments made in other reviews and I'm glad I chose this rather than spending 25 more on the Sony KDL 23" which actually has a lower contrast ratio but mainly because 20" is a very good bedroom/kitchen size.
One thing I will say is that I would have probably bought this in silver rather had they been the same price when I made the order (they are now) as one particularly helpful review stated that the black will show dust far more obviously than silver. However, having said this the black is looking pretty slick and I don't really regret it.
The one disappointment was the Super Saver Delivery by CityLink. I would have to agree with the advice given by another review and also recommend spending the extra 5 postage and packaging as probably being worth it. I say this because it took a week for me to get my hands on the TV and in the end, after making a few calls, I resorted to actually going to the depot and picking it up myself after CityLink attempted to deliver the television and left a delivery card at a different address.
But yes, in conclusion this has been a fantastic television for the hour or so I've had it and oozes Sony quality.

Brilliant bedroom television, very easy to install and program even for the novice in life. Ordered at 5.00 on the Monday and arrived at 09.00 Tuesday morning - Well done to Amazon
