Hi

At the weekend I upgraded my old Samsung Plasma to a Sony Bravia KDL-50W829B after a few weeks of researching this model, I bought this from the department store who offer 5 year guarantee.

Everything has been fine but I've noticed a few things about the TV I wonder if someone could clear up.

1) On different angles the colours look washed, I have read different opinions that this is due to LED not having the best angle of vision, is this correct? Is they anyway around this with setting tweaks?

2) When the screen goes black (I.e TV is still on but say I switch HDMI channels or something similar) I have what can only be described as a faint white cloud light in the middle of the TV and I would say it is around 20" in length by say 8" high. Is this normal? Is this just the 'backlight'? I haven't noticed this when watching a programme but only when the screen is black and the TV remains on.

Sorry if these are newbie question!

Thanks
 
Thanks guys.

Just wanted to be sure I didn't have a dodgy TV! Sounds completely normal. I can live with it, just reassuring now I know it's normal.
