Picked up the Sony 50" BRAVIA 3 LED 4K UHD Smart Google TV (2024) at Best Buy in Watertown, MA last month and I’m really impressed. I am writing this review after 1 month of daily use. Setup was easy, the picture is stunning—vivid colors, deep blacks, smooth motion and even HD content looks great. Sound is surprisingly clear, though a soundbar would level it up. It was a bit difficult to connect Samsung soundbar that I had before; however I feel its my lack of understaning the technology to connect two devices. To be honest, the sound bar is not required for sony TV. The sound from TV itself very smooth and clear. Inbulid, Google TV makes streaming super simple, and I set up accounts for both my wife and me. It’s super easy to switch between profiles, and each of us gets personalized recommendations. Gaming on it (PS5) is fantastic with low lag and crisp HDR. For the price, it feels like premium quality without the premium cost. Definitely recommend and worth every penny.

Hi SaravananS,
Thank you for choosing Sony!
It's wonderful to hear how much you're enjoying your new K50S30 TV! It sounds like the stunning picture quality, with its vibrant colors and deep blacks, has truly impressed you.
We're also glad that the built-in Google TV and personalized profiles are making your streaming experience easy and fun for both you and your wife. Your feedback on the sound is especially great to hear—we designed the TV's speakers for clarity, and it's fantastic that you feel a soundbar isn't even needed.
Thank you so much for your recommendation and for sharing your experience with the TV's premium quality and value. We truly appreciate it!
Best regards,
-Fred

Just got access to internet and needed to upgrade my tv. Purchased the 50' Sony Bravia 3 Led 4k UHD Smart TV. It was easy set up and picture and sound is fantastic. Would definitely purchase this again when another tv needs to be replaced.

The Sony tv had a higher price, than other options, but I’m glad I went with it. Note: I don’t do reviews typically. It has a nice picture, and has been easy to navigate

Great tv the stand was not in the box so they took off a few bucks and gave me a deal on the “universal stand” which was so impossible to set up I returned the whole thing for a new in box tv w stand etc included.
Posted
Hi ThePokeDon78,
Thank you for your feedback. We're very sorry to hear about the missing stand and the trouble you had with the universal one. That's definitely not the experience we want for our customers. We're glad to know you were able to get a complete, new TV and hope you're enjoying it now. Thanks for choosing Sony.

This is a pretty good TV for what I need it for. I could see it being not as ideal for really intense games but that doesn't bother me. The sound quality could be a bit better but it's not bad. Sometimes it freezes for a second and occasionally kicks me back to the main menu, but this only happens when scrolling through the options. None of the negatives are a deal breaker for me personally. It's a decent TV for the price and it gets the job done at the end of the day. Also, it's nice that I can hook it up to my computer.

Thank you for sharing your detailed review, StephanieP!
We are pleased to hear that your K50S30 television is a good fit for your needs and that you find it to be a decent TV for the price that successfully gets the job done. It's also great that you appreciate the connectivity options, like hooking it up to your computer!
We genuinely appreciate your feedback on the areas that could be improved, including the built-in sound quality, for which we recommend pairing the TV with an external audio system, and the occasional freezing when scrolling through menus, which we apologize for and suggest is often resolved by ensuring the TV has the latest firmware or performing a power reset.
Your comment that the TV is not ideal for really intense games is also valuable. While the S30 series delivers a great picture, dedicated high-end gaming models offer features like 4K/120Hz support for the most demanding players.
Thank you again for the fair and honest assessment. We value all of your feedback as we continuously work to improve our products.
Thank you for choosing Sony!

I purchased this TV because I had a 40" for about 10 years and really liked it but the picture started going out. So I purchased the Sony 50" thinking I was upgrading. The TV itself is okay, I am not a Tecky and I think today's entertainment comes with too much unnecessary info, however the reason I am not giving this TV a better rating is because I purchased an open box excellent condition from Best Buy (BB) and they sent me via UPS delivery an open box in trash condition. After carrying it up the stairs, unboxing it and setting it up I found out the horrible condition (see picture attached). After several irate calls to BB, I found out they have the worst customer service I have ever dealt with. I wound up having to purchase the TV again and returning the trash one (wait on my refund which took weeks). BB never provided any legitimate support and showed very little concern. TV is okay for the price, but BB has no quality control and very very poor customer service. Also in this day and time of profit over performance, I am sure they don't care.

This replaces a legacy television at our house. Set up went smoothly. Seamless transition to current technology and viewing.
Posted
Hi Broc! We love knowing that your new BRAVIA 3 provided such a smooth and seamless upgrade from your older television.
The television is powered by the 4K HDR Processor X1 which works hard to deliver clear and detailed picture quality, even upscaling older content to near-4K resolution.
Thanks for choosing Sony!
Best regards,
Estefany

My first Sony BRAVIA TV is set up in the master bedroom. I replaced the TV (a competitor) in my living room with this Sony 50" BRAVIA because the picture has much better color contrast and is brighter. The price was right as well.

This was my first time purchasing a Sony TV, and I have to say—it’s been an incredible experience so far! The picture quality is stunning. The 4K resolution combined with the BRAVIA technology really makes everything pop, whether I’m streaming movies, watching live sports, or even gaming. The colors are vibrant and lifelike, and the contrast is excellent. The Google TV integration is a huge plus. It’s super easy to navigate and find my favorite streaming apps, and the voice control with Google Assistant works flawlessly. Setting it up was straightforward, and I was able to get it running quickly. As someone who hadn’t tried Sony before, this TV really exceeded my expectations. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a sleek, high-performance smart TV!

I replaced an 8 year old SONY with this and the difference is amazing! Incredible picture and easy to setup, despite the lack of printed manuals. Much simpler to use than older sets. The access to Apps and the ability to add external storage are tremendous. Interestingly the sound is much better with my existing soundbar. There are some things to not like such as a non-backlit remote and the table stand no longer has space between the legs for a soundbar.
