Super thin with a nice thin stand so it fits comfortably on the TV cabinet and against the wall.

Reviews Word on the street

	Rated 69% Read the review (Mar, 2011) Sony's KDL-EX720 series represents the least-expensive model in the company's 2011 TV lineup with 3D and a 240Hz refresh rate-both bullet points that the less expensive KDL-EX620 series lacks.

	Rated 79% by 191 users at amazon.com I have several friend with hdtvs like vizios, panasonics, samsungs and sharp and I have been complimented on my bravia for its sharp cystal clear picture. Rated 100% by by Anthony-M. (Jul, 2011) Finally, even with "Motionflow" turned off entirely, I still noticed some smoothing when watching Blu-Ray movies, which was not acceptable for me as I don't enjoy watching movies with even the slightest "soap opera effect. Rated 60% by by Stephan (Jun, 2011) The first thing I did was play a Blu Ray in my PS3- Terminator Salvation- and WHOA!!!! It is like you are looking out the window at the action...so lifelike.

Panel

The 3D looks great, I had no money to buy 3D glasses and the Sony bluray player, so buy generic glasses right here at Amazon, download a 3D movie on my PC, I reproduced with Windows Media Player 3D function enable the TV and it worked great.

ok, I' got this tv a few days ago and let me tell you its awesome, 3d movies and video games look great, there is no clouding what so ever.

Ok most people have talked about 2d to 3d conversion, this is a hard topic to talk about because some people see it better than others depending on how much they look for the 3d in the picture.

3d

I did not purchase the 3D glasses...they do not come with it, but cannot wait to try it out...maybe for my birthday?!?!? Anyway, you will be very happy with this set if you decide to purchase it!

Sony BRAVIA EX720 Series 46" | Rated 100% by by Ed-C (Jun, 2011)

Do note that you don't need a 3D transmitter for this TV, it is built in, so you might as well buy the glasses separately unless there is a monetary advantage.

I got the 3d starter pack with Alice in Wounderland, awesome just perfect!

Content

If you try converting Blu-Ray movies you notice it, pretty much the better quality the image the most likely you will notice it more.
