The Sony KDL-46W5100 offers an impressive combination of video performance, hookup versatility, and value. Full 1080p screen resolution displays every detail of every high-definition source, and Motionflow anti-blur processing can keep up with the quickest athlete and the most over-the-top movie car chase. And in the popular 46" screen size, this is one of Sony's most affordable Internet-capable HDTVs.
Motionflow™ technology clears up motion blur
Since their introduction a couple years ago, LCD TVs with 120Hz processing have evolved and gotten better. Sony's sophisticated Motionflow technology doubles the video frame rate by inserting 60 entirely new frames between the original 60 frames. The system analyzes movement in each scene, adjusting the amount of enhancement to create seamlessly smooth, sharp pictures.
Enjoy better-looking non-HD video, too
High-def video looks amazing, but most of us will continue to watch some standard-def programs for a while yet. And that's when you'll appreciate the KDL-46W5100's advanced video processing. BRAVIA Engine 3™ is Sony's latest and most complete solution for improving the look of lower-quality video. The system works on a scene-by-scene basis to reduce noise, adjust colors, and better define the edges of images.
Stay connected to the latest HD sources — and to the Internet
The KDL-46W5100's versatile set of connections includes four HDMI inputs to handle high-def video sources like a Blu-ray player. Built-in web connectivity lets you integrate customized online content into your TV viewing. You can access and stream on-demand movies and TV shows using the TV's remote.
