Just what I needed
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm VERY happy with this TV. The picture quality is superb. I have it in a small den (9 x 13,) with old plaster walls, so wall mounting wasn't possible. I was initially attracted to its heavy center base (rather than feet) because I had to place it on an antique dresser & slightly smaller width on the 42" model (most 43" were a tad too wide.)

OLED + Google TV = Bliss
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Upgraded to the 42" Sony A90K TV from an old 32" 720p TV and the experience has been incredible. The image clarity is impressive, even when sitting on a couch 10 feet away, but the black gradients of this OLED screen are what make this TV special. I chose this SONY model over the cheaper LG OLED set for the Google TV OS and I'm really happy with the interface and performance. The native sound from this 42" TV is impressive as well.

Astonishingly good!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My last TV was a 20-year-old SONY, and this was one that CR rated this OLED 4K model at or very near the top. so I bought it.... my first "smart" TV (which I'm still trying to "learn" and "tame" and "master'"). BUT... it is the first time I ever actually saw a totally black screen! And the sound, wow! It has such a bass: I frankly have never heard such a deep resonating rumble before. In short, both display AND sound the very best! A remarkably powerful, versatile TV which the Geek Squad installed it just right. And the perfect size and TV for my livingrooom. A+ for Best Buy!

Great tv for watching content.
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This thing is really heavy. Most of the weight is from the really nice stand you place it on. The Sony has slightly better picture quality when it comes to viewing content on YouTube or other apps but the LG looks better for games so I went with the LG. I spent a good amount of time with both tvs side by side like a crazy person. There are some scenes where Sony showed so much detail in white/bright scenes that the LG just blew out into a white blob. Still you can’t go wrong with either just don’t spend more than $1000 at this point.

Sony- 42” Class Bravia 4K OLED Google TV
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was replacing a Samsung 40 inch Tv with the 42 inch Sony OLED. Spent a little bit more than another Sony 43 inch I was considering. The Sony I decided on was a home run. The colors and sound are far superior than the Samsung I replaced. I was considering a sound bar but so far I don’t see the need. The Geek Squad set it up for me and the new Smart TV allows me easy access to the streaming services I use.

This is the one!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this to replace a 15 year old Sony Bravia TV that served us well. The new tv is amazing and has a beautiful picture - a little too beautiful in fact. It's been driving me nuts - everything looked like that weird soap opera style. I was able to shut off MotionFlow and now it's absolutely perfect! We compared the Samsung when shopping and comparing the two side by side at the store - Sony blows the Samsung out of the water!
