Not just "Home Theater" - a real movie theater!
A movie buff, I intend to use the set for evening film shows, not games or sports. I have a smaller Samsung and a 2010 vintage 55" Toshiba for that. A custom surround system with a sturdy, heavy, top of the line Sony amp at its heart, (built 2003!), and Klipsch Heresy II speakers (1984, made in the Alabama factory when Paul Klipsch was still alive, theKlipsch engineers signed the back of the speakers!), and a 12" Dayton Audio subwoofer. And no, not for watching comic book movies full of car chases and explosions. Confession: I do have all the James Bond flicks! But no...otherwise it is Hitchcock for me, John Ford, Sergio Leone, Scorsese, classic film noir from 40s and 50s, foreign films, the Godfather pictures, De Palma, Ridley Scott, David Lynch etc) And I confess to being a Trekker (original cast, not the Lost in Space Captain Picard Second Generation hokum...well, I have those movies anyway, if only for the great Goldsmith's scores). I like the Sony's option to choose low power and thus reduce unnatural brightness. So many TVs arrive with factory set brightness at 80% and contrast at 100. And people watch that artificially hot image for as long as they have the set. Sony is at the right color temp and color saturation from the outset, no manual adjustments required. TV's own sound is superb. Sony's chief competitor is often criticized for poor sound. A wish since my childhood now fulfilled: I have my own "movie theater!"

Best 10/10 color, reflection & sound
I recently had just purchased the newest Samsung TV not only was the reflection terrible The sound was not great and there was a huge lap time between pressing a button on a remote and the TV process again. Then the remotes system went bad in it and had two exchange the TV I was suggested this donate TV by a store associate and was glad that I gave it a chance. Not only is the reflection great for our bright living room, But the sounds is extraordinary and so is the color. Best 10 out of 10

Great picture quality and brightness. Preset apps and voice assistant on remote make it easy to use.

Great TV
It’s easy to be impressed at this point because I’ve waited so long to upgrade. The last time we bought a TV, 1080 and 3D were a big deal. I’m glad Josh, the Best Buy associate, talked me out of the 85 inch I intended to buy. So to make a few key points that impressed me the most: - It’s bright. So bright in fact, a white screen can wake you up if you fall asleep, like someone is shining a flashlight on you. - The built in smart system is wonderfully easy to use. It’s handy and set up similar to a smart phone. - It has features I never knew I wanted until I got them, now I wouldn’t go without them. - Amazing sound! I guess I’m used to my old TV, so I bought a sound bar with a subwoofer when I got this TV. The sound on the TV is easily twice as loud as the sound bar, so I just use the factory TV speaker. Great TV, you won’t be disappointed
