Hi!

I'm really interested in this TV:

Sony Bravia KDL42W7
Buy Sony Bravia KDL42W7 LED HD 1080p Smart TV, 42" with Freeview HD | John Lewis

However, I'm confused by the model numbers.

If I Google it, I come up with reviews like this one:

Sony KDL42W705B LED TV Review
Sony KDL42W705B/ KDL42W705 (W7) Review

Is that the same TV? I certainly hope so, because I really need a TV with super-low input lag, as it will be used 100% for gaming, and according to that review, it fits the bill. It looks like the link on John Lewis is missing some digits from the model number, or am I mistaken?

Thank you very much for your help!
 
I'm 99.9% sure that the JL 'W7' is the W705. I guess it sounds more catchy!
 
It's showing W7 and 700 series on sony's website and not W705, so i presume it could be the same, sometimes retailers eg currys and john lewis might have their own code specific to them, i believe the reason for that is that they cannot be price matched although i could be wrong.
 
Ask John Lewis :) They can look at their system, even the box. Buy in store
