Sony - KDL-40W3000 vs KDL-40D3500

[roger06]

Hi

Popped into Currys today and saw the Sony KDL-40D3500. The sales guy told me the model was 2 weeks' old so I assumed it had superceded the KDL-40W3000 but both models seems current on the Sony web site.

I can get the 40W for around £999 online as well as high street, and Amazon has the 40D3500 for £670 which seems amazing. It has one less HDMI but, other than future proofing this won't be an issue - so is there a difference ?

There seems so much price difference between models which seems almost the same that it's really confusing...

Thanks

go for the KDL40W3000, it nearly won the recent supertest, id say its worth the extra

the d3500 replaces the d3000

the w3000 is being replaced in may/june by the w4000 which is why the w3000 is currently at a cracking price.

im pretty sure the D3500 isnt replacing the D3000, as the D3000 is only in 32" whereas D3500 only in 40-46

Hi,

I too was agonising over these two tv`s but after seeing the Panasonic Plasma range i was converted.

Ended up getting a TH42PZ85B, in my very humble opinion a far better set and if you can afford the slightly higher price its worth every penny.

Whatever you decide happy viewing.
