This model is the 46 inch version of the 40 inch TV that we tested in our labs, the Bravia 40Z4500. Everything we said in the original article holds true--the only thing that's different is the size!
The components, both physical and electronic, are all identical to those found in the model we tested. The only factor which could be prone to slight variation is the brightness, producing slightly different contrast. According to our own tests, and assurances from the manufacturer, the results of one TV can accurately be applied to others in the range at different sizes.

The Z4500 adds even more features to the excellent W4500 that we tested very recently: MotionFlow is now at 200 Hz, a sub-woofer is included and the remote control has been improved. If it was easy to endorse Sony's earlier model as an excellent choice, it's even easier to welcome this one!
