The Sony BRAVIA XBR8-Series HDTVs represent the next step forward for Sony HDTV technology. Underpinning this advance is the TRILUMINOS RGB Dynamic LED backlight, which utilizes clusters of red, green, and blue LEDs to produce accurate colors and an amazingly realistic image, and employs local dimming to dynamically adjust the brightness of LED clusters, allowing the XBR8 to display deep blacks alongside bright whites for enhanced image depth and exceptional shadow detail. Motionflow 120Hz PRO technology creates new frames to double the frame rate, then uses sequential scanning to enhance motion and deliver a smoother and clearer picture, and 24p True Cinema lets you experience a cinema-like experience. BRAVIA XBR8-Series HDTVs also feature the powerful BRAVIA Engine 2 PRO fully digital video processor, which creates sharp, crystal-clear images at any resolution, as well as advanced color reproduction technologies including 10-bit processing and a 10-bit panel, Live Color Creation, and x.v.Color capability. DMex functionality lets you expand the capabilities of the BRAVIA XBR8-Series with optional BRAVIA Link modules, including the BRAVIA Internet Video Link, BRAVIA Wireless Link, BRAVIA DVD Link, and BRAVIA Input Link (all sold separately). In addition, the exclusive Xross Media Bar (XMB) user interface, integrated TV Guide Interactive Program Guide, and BRAVIA Sync one-touch component control make the BRAVIA XBR8-Series HDTVs easy to use, and the large number of inputs offer you a wide range of connectivity options. BRAVIA XBR8-Series HDTVs also feature an RS-232C connection for integration into home automation systems. You can even customize the timeless design of the BRAVIA XBR8-Series by adding optional speaker grilles available in a selection of designer colors (sold separately).

I bought this tv a few months ago. It has a beautiful picture and I love the look of the tv itself. I currently own a 46 inch xbr2 lcd. I was disappointed that the bezel was scratched right out of the box. After reading some other reviews on the tv I found out it has a plastic covering on the bezel. When that was removed it looked perfect. Two minor areas of concern, the screen is more reflective than the xbr 2 which I don't like. Not sure why they did that. As some others have mentioned I do notice some motion judder that I did not see on the xbr 2. I primarily see it on the scrolling info line at the bottom of the screen on ESPN. Never saw that on the xbr 2 and this is supposed to have advanced motionflow. Tried the different motion options in the menu and nothing helped. I don't see any problems when watching program material on satellite or on blu ray however.

The 55-inch Sony XBR8 has a fantastic picture quality right out of the box. It looks great on the wall although not as slim as the new LED TVs. But remember that the XBR8 has a back-lit system which makes the TV somewhat thicker. But I will chose the back-lit picture quality over a slimmer look any day.
We then got the Harmony 900 remote to control the TV, the DVD player, the Yamaha soundbar, and the cable box. I would highly recommend the Harmony 900 remote to go with the Sony XBR.

I've had this TV for about a year now. It isn't without some minor faults, but the picture quality is unparalleled. No TV is perfect, but until someone comes out with a 55" OLED or 1:1 LED backlight, this one will remain on top.

I got a chance to see this TV at the Sony store. It was isolated by itself, maybe because it is last years model, or maybe because if they placed it directly next to other screens, it's faults become clear, or rather... blurry.
When watching fairly static images, the color depth and richness seems to be sharp (pictures of flowers and whales, looked good as long as they were static images). I heard of motion blur problems and asked to see something with quicker moving images. After thinking I was seeing blur, but not sure if it was the TV, or the source media, we found something with scrolling text and the blur became evident. The Sony sales rep played with the menus and various settings/modes for what seemed to be forever, but the results never changed. The blur was always present with quicker moving images.
Unfortunately, it seems Sony has thrown in the towel after experimenting on this first generation LED LCD TV, and gone back to CCFL for backlighting. I got to see the LG 55LH90 in action, and it looked sharper then the KDL-55XBR8, and saw no motion blur. NOTE: I did not see the two side by side.
Compare the price of the LG 55LH90 to the KDL-55XBR8, (even if the price was $2,500), the KDL-55XBR8 would still cost more, and offer poorer picture quality.
