||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Couldn't be happier honestly. Does photos, gaming, tv and streaming really well. Takes cheap 200x200 wall mounts. looks great, sounds great, very fast, streams great. probably the best all-around monitor/tv i have ever owned. its only flaw its potential for burn-in. No hype here. Its as good as you have heard and worth the Sony tax.

Posted .Hi Dgwj, We're very grateful for this positive feedback! Thank you for this amazing review of your XR-42A90K. It's fantastic to hear it meets your expectations and you are enjoying the excellent picture quality this TV delivers. Good to know you're having an enjoyable watching and gaming experience with this TV.
Organic LED displays (OLED) may experience image retention if an image is continuously displayed for a long period of time or the same image is repeatedly displayed. This is due to the characteristics of the materials used to achieve high-definition imaging. To protect your TV screen, avoid using images that may cause image retention. The good news is that we have steps to protect the TV screen from image retention like Pixel Shift and Panel Refresh found within the TV settings just to name a few. These functions automatically run according to your TV’s condition or you can run them manually.
The MASTER Series BRAVIA XR A90K OLED TV is designed to fit perfectly in any sized room or office thanks to the 48-inch and first-ever 42-inch screen sizes. Whether you are gearing up for an intense gaming session or settling down to enjoy your favorite movie or show, rest assured the A90K will be sure to impress. Thank you for choosing Sony! -Jess

I would recommend this to a friendExcellent PC Monitor
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought as a PC monitor to replace a 48" LG CX that was too big for my setup. Definitely a better size for a monitor and also a step up in color accuracy and upscaling of non 4k content. Would be great if all 4 HDMI ports were 2.1, but that's not a dealbreaker for my application. Definitely would be a requirement for a living room TV setup though.

Beautiful Display
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love the brightness and contrast. Viewing angles are immaculate. And google tv is always a plus. One thing i dislike is the stand. Personally i enjoy two stands on the end rather than a flat center piece although i do appreciate the addition of soundbar height adjusters so that the tv does not sit flush with the table top and doesnt get covered by the sound bar.

If You Like Natural Color
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We really wanted a bigger one, even the 48", but have an enclosure that doesn't permit it. We loved our old (10 yrs) 40" XBR, and this is better - not as bright as the old one, but no parallax (you can watch somewhat from the side with no reduction in visual quality), and great color saturation. I like Sony because of the natural quality of the colors and skin tones, and this OLED technology is great - although better in the bigger ones. This 42" is smaller exterior dimension than our old 40" because it is all screen edge to edge, no bezel. I like it.

||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I did a lot of research between this tv and the C2 and decided to go with the Sony. I've been using it for like 2 months now and all i can say is this TV's a beast. I use it for gaming (PS5) and the games looks so much better than the 4k i had before. The colors are great especially the blacks.
