Manual of product KDL-40U2530
Editorial note
The Sony KDL-40U2530 television stands out for its exceptional picture quality thanks to its 40-inch LCD screen, offering a resolution of 1366 x 768 pixels that ensures an immersive viewing experience. Its modern and sleek black design fits harmoniously into various living spaces, adding a pleasing aesthetic touch. Moreover, the energy consumption is reasonable, with 180 W in operation and only 1 W in standby mode, contributing to notable energy savings. However, this model has some limitations. It is not compatible with resolutions higher than 1080p, which may restrict the viewing experience with recent high-definition content. Additionally, the audio power of 20 W may prove insufficient for total immersion in movies or games, especially in larger spaces. The limited number of HDMI ports (2) could also pose a problem for users wishing to connect multiple devices simultaneously. Finally, its weight of 23.5 kg can make transport difficult, especially for a single person. In terms of performance, the user experience is generally satisfactory, with an intuitive interface and features like picture-in-picture (PIP) that enhance viewing. However, the audio and video performance, while good, falls short of expectations for users seeking optimal quality. Connectivity is versatile, but the limited number of ports may restrict usage options.Score details
