It has been known from the beginning of LCD, but not well informed by retailers to consumers, that LCD has an inherent viewing problem when the angle of view is off center, and depending on the LCD, the color, brightness, and contrast, drop considerably as the viewer moves from a center position (90 degree, straight to the panel) to angles that are typical of the sitting arrangements of most family rooms whereby viewers gather around the screen, and although they may still view an image, it is typically not of the same quality of the image perceived by the person viewing straight to the set.
This is more noticeable when...

It seems to me that LCD's with glass covering have the worst off-center viewing.

RE: "Safety Glass" in addition to standard LCD Plastic Display Panel ....
Soooory but, I don't "see" any such feature listed or referenced in a number of "Web Reviews!"
In point-of-fact, aside from whether-or-not an additional "Safety Glass" might exist, SONY's "SMART SETS" have performed so very-troubling that it has been considered by many to be a Sales Disaster! {... Picture Attributes NOT even among the better of those available as a standard HDTV either!} .....
... recall that SONY CORP has lost BILLIONS for many consecutive Quarters and is currently & as quickly as contractually-possible totally exiting the Residential HDTV markets entirely, "leasing" that Brand Name to the best "Bidder," including the future Engineering thereof!!
"Sony Corporation" that provided the Gear that sent back the PIXs of "Moon Walks," etc., IS History, very-sadly!
