Great budget TV, but you can get a superior performance for not much more money

AVForums‘s review Edit

So overall, the S5500 is a very mixed bag and with strong competition from rivals LG and Samsung, it fails to impress in every department. Add to this the problems with inconstant backlighting and it becomes a lucky dip with some panels looking good and others suffering from an obvious clouding issue. If you are going to demo the S5500 we suggest you look out for these issues we have found with our review sample.

www.trustedreviews.com‘s review Edit

Despite the harsh tone of much of this review, if considered purely in the context of other £500-£550 40-42in TVs, the 40S5500 isn't an unmitigated disaster. It’s just hugely average. Its backlight issues are a massive problem for any discerning film viewer, while the likes of the far superior step-up from this model, the KDL-40V5500, has been seen for just £20 more than this set and the Samsung LE40B550, another very capable performer, for as little as £520.
