A amazing tv for the price
This is an absolutely amazing TV. It’s my first Sony TV I waited a while to write a review to see the longevity other TV. It holds up amazingly well of course I have I had to dial into settings. Still pretty close to OLED besides blooming, but the bloom is pretty good except when you play a game like dead, rising 4 super ultra dark scene or the mini map blooms a little bit can be navigated if you turn down the contrast, but overall it’s extremely good, you do see a little bit of blooming outside of gaming. An absolutely excellent TV for the PS five and I am extremely picky with my TVs so I’d say this is a winner

Paranoid with OLED? This might be the TV for you!
I really love this TV. I got it for a good deal and Best Buy delivered it well. I had to ask for some help to mount it but love how solid it feels. I used to have a Samsung and even if that served me well for a long time, it just felt too cheap and plasticky. This model is not OLED as I didn't wanna risk for future burn ins but I think this is future proof already with 120 Hz and I don't think I'd be needing 8K so bad in the coming years either. Just the usual issue with Sony with not having enough ports but I didn't really need much anyway. Google TV on Sony is so much better that Samsung's UI and love the fact that it has Airplay. I use it with Apple Music with no problem. Speakers are just alright but since I'm just using it in my bedroom, I don't think external ones are necessary.
