This TV has the best factory sound than any other new TV on the market. The picture is fantastic. The remote however is horrible. If your hands are the size of an 8 year old child, you may like this remote. The tiny remote is about half the width of a dollar bill. It has no CC button. The tiny buttons are closely spaced and are all symmetrically spaced plus all are placed on the front rather than the side. It's difficult to tell which button you're pressing in the dark. In addition, the remote is slippery on both sides. I've had it slide off my leather couch numerous times when placed on both sides and that's very annoying. I've looked at the larger Sony TV's in hope they were using a different remote that would be compatible but they all seem to use the same sorry remote. Another issue I've had with the TV itself is the over the air tuner. I live in a rural area and occasionally have to use my antenna. I've had the TV completely freeze in antenna mode to the point where I had to unplug it in order to get it to work again. This seems to be a common problem. I chose this TV over the LG because of the sound which was important but the remote has me rethinking my choice as I have a sound bar to use for movies anyway. Any TV is only as good as its remote because that's how you interact with it. Yes you can use "Hey Google" but that only works about half the time as well and the commands are limited. To sum it up: beautiful picture, excellent built in sound, horrible remote. If the remote is important to you, you may want to look at the LG.

At the time of Purchase I had spent months debating on which brand I wanted to purchase an Oled TV from. Considering Samsung, Sony and LG. They all seemed to offer similar specs with LG even making the Oled panels which Sony uses. The deciding factor for me was the ability to connent a Bravia tv to my Sony soundbar and surround system and use the TVs speakers as a center channel. Which in theory is a great concept. It worked amazingly for the forst year and half the benefit of having speakers fire from bwhind the screeen evens out the sound field. Within the last 6 months however I noticed that my TV was eminating snow noise quietly at first but it gradually grew worse with time. I thought there was an issue woth the TVs speakers as disabling the S-port eliminated the noise. Some research revealed that this is a hardware issue with the TVs processor and there is currently no fix. Sony does not have a recall on this nor do they offer a replacement board gor purchase that resolves this issue. If you plan on using the S-port feature be warned this will happen to you as well and theres no way to prevent it. The next two issues are what sparked me to write this review. First over the past couple of months my TV will refuse to turn on, I have to unplug the TV and hold the power button to reboot it. Its not a huge isssue but annoying and Im unable to figure out why this is happening. This morning my TV once again did this except this time after restarting the TV it did a factory reset all on its own. I had to relog into everything on the TV and it reverted all my settings. Which those of you who are familiar with googles tv OS know how much of a nightmare it is to navigate through the seemingly endless menus. Last issue TV now has major Latency issues that did not exist prior to the Factory reset. When trying to game on my Xbox one there is a huge delay between my inputs and on screen movement. It’s virtually unplayable in its current state. Streaming videos doesnt seem to have been affected. It’s really unfortunate as the TVs picture quality is exceptionally but it’s frankly disappointing to see Sony refusing to address major design flaws in there current Bravia TVs. This goes for the newer Bravia TVs released earlier this year, the issues laid out here aren’t confined to this generation of TV.

This is replacing my vizio oled that broke Sony has the best processor ive ever seen . The tvs built in speakers are also great its very bright this is the nicest tv ive ever had. Its also the same price as the lg c3 . I see some people saying its too expensive its not

This is the OLED television that you want! Especially if you like watching movies or gaming. Shows the best picture in a dark room setting. I connected mine to a JBL sound bar system, but the tv has high quality audio without the sound bar. The visuals for nature documentaries is out of this world clear. There are a plethora of settings to customize your tv. You won’t be disappointed!
