“But the price!”, Some readers may be indignant at seeing this model in second place with top 40-43 inch TVs. “But Sony and Linux!”, Others will admire. And we will agree with both options. Yes, this model is expensive, but has a high build quality, and offers a lot:
- a picture with magnificent colors and very high brightness (350 cd / m2);
- wide viewing angle - 178 °;
- “Omnivorous” formats;
- FM radio
- Motionflow 200 Hz support, which gives dynamic scenes flawless smoothness and naturalness. This makes the Sony KD-43XF7005 the best choice if you watch sports often.
The Linux OS, which is present on many Sony TV sets, is stripped down and redesigned compared to the usual one. However, there is not the slightest risk of “picking up” a malicious program with it.
pros: a huge number of color settings, there is protection from children, a very loud and clear sound from the speakers, a convenient remote control.
Minuses: high price, low screen refresh rate.

Stylish appearance, thin frame and excellent image quality even from the side angles without significant deterioration in color saturation and contrast - these are three outstanding features of this TV.
Perhaps this is the best TV 43 inches, judging by the ratio of price and quality.
