Good value
You need to purchase a separate wall bracket if you want it fixed to the wall.

Get one in time for Christmas!!
I got mine just the other day and have to say I'm blown away, I cannot fault it personally it's just a great display. Sony seem to be the leaders in the market at the moment and if you're on the look out for a new TV you'll not go far wrong with one of these!

Great TV...... but no added extras?
I bought this TV for me room, since I only have a very small amount of wall space. Having read the reviews, this one was the best one out of the whole 20" range on Amazon.
The picture is brilliant. Even for a small screen size, details are still clearly seen. Sound quality is really good too. I also like the function on the remote control of switching between analogue TV and digital TV.
What I was a little disappointed with was that there was no alarm. On other TV's I have had, I could set it to turn itself on at a specific time. And the sleep timer is annoying. It takes ages to scroll through the menu and setting pages to turn it on. Subtitles are hard to get to. No easy on/off button. You have to scroll though 4 pages of set up options. Im not hard of hearing, but I am considerate of others. Late night TV watching in my house wakes everyone else up. It just really bugs me that I have to spend 45 seconds messing about with the remote, where on most TV's and digi boxes, there is one simple button.
Apart from that this is a FANTASTIC tv. It was all agreed in my house that mine is the best. (I often come home and find people sitting on the floor on my room watching something)
If you want a great TV, and are not bothered about the things I mentioned, then this is it.
(it has two scart sockets too! Enough for a DVD player and a Nintendo Wii)

Size isn't everything
Good picture quality, decent sound, lots of connectivity options, including HDMI, plus inbuilt Freeview tuner; everything you could wish for in a small TV. Also, and importantly, considering it's likely to live in bedrooms and kitchens mostly, it has nice clean lines and the design is less obtrusive than most sets. (It helps that the model is available in silver, black or white, so you can choose what will work with the intended location.)
As others have mentioned, the sound quality especially is markedly better than most sets of this size - a real plus when listening to digital radio stations via the Freeview.
Yes, it costs a bit more than some, but worth the extra. Heartily recommend.

Nice pictures
This 20" TV was wall-mounted in our bedroom using a unviersal wall mount bracket. We normally watch some news and sports before going to sleep. We also watched some DVDs. The picture quality is very good in both cases.
