This 43” TV fits my new smaller space perfectly. The color and sound quality are exceptional. It’s a Goggle TV, which was easy to set up and navigate. Would definitely recommend.

Excellent Tv for the garage work out gym. Easy prompts to set up TV. Ethernet connected so Apps work fast and efficient. The host of audio and video features were high price points 5 years ago. Not so today. This TV’s features and price point was a no brainer to purchase. Highly recommended for a bedroom TV or small family room setting. You won’t be disappointed.

I got two of these TVs to replace 2 older TVs in our bedrooms. One of the TVs I replaced was around 10 to 12 years old, so this was a major upgrade to that TV.
Being that this was for our bedrooms and not our main living room TV I didn't need anything super fancy or huge. I just wanted something easy to use, with access to all our main streaming apps. This fit the bill. It fit up on the wall mounts we had for the older TVs so we didn't need to swap those out. It was fairly light compared to the 10 year old TV even though they were the same size.
It has access to all the normal apps: netflix, youtube, hbo, spotify, etc. It was easy to set them up though I will say I am not a huge fan of the layout of apps. I was hoping kind of for something similar to the Roku grid of apps on the homescreen, but it's basically a line of any apps installed, some of which you cant uninstall. You can move things around, but it's still just one line across in between other things Google is promoting. For the price I can't complain, but I would appreciate a grid a lot more. Maybe it's an option I haven't found yet?
Picture quality is nice. Does it stand up to super high end TV picture quality? Probably not, but it doesn't need to for what we got them for. It's easy to see, bright, crisp.
The speakers on this are great for basic/standard built in speakers. They sound a lot better then the 10 year old TVs built in speakers which were awful. No matter what we did you could not make out what anyone was saying. For built ins, this Sony has pretty great speakers. It's fairly clear and easy to make out sounds and talking. Pairing it with my soundbar made it even better, but if I didn't already have that sound bar I probably would not have gone out of my way to get one as these speakers would do just fine for the bedroom.
Overall, I am really pleased with this TV. For the price I got it at it was a great deal.

Hi Alisha,
It brings us great satisfaction to hear that the BRAVIA 2 II was such a major upgrade for your bedrooms and perfectly fit your needs for an easy-to-use TV with access to all your streaming apps! We're thrilled to know you appreciate the bright, crisp picture quality and the great speakers, especially compared to your older set.
We also sincerely appreciate your detailed feedback on the app layout and the desire for a more traditional grid view. We constantly look for ways to improve the user interface, and your input is invaluable as we consider future software updates.
Thank you for sharing such a thorough review and for choosing Sony for your home!
Best regards, Dominick

I recently purchased the Sony 43" Class BRAVIA 2 II LED 4K UHD Smart Google TV (2025), and overall, I'm very impressed. The picture quality is outstanding—the sharpness is incredibly clear and crisp, making movies and shows look vibrant and detailed. The sound performance is excellent as well, delivering clean audio without needing an external speaker setup.
Another big plus is how lightweight and easy the TV is to set up. I had no trouble placing it on my TV stand, and the overall build feels solid despite the light frame. The remote is simple, intuitive, and very user-friendly.
My only real complaint is the startup code/password verification. Every time I turn the TV on, it prompts me for a code, which gets frustrating quickly. I understand security features, but this one feels unnecessary for everyday use, and I wish there were a way to disable it.
Despite that inconvenience, this TV delivers excellent performance and value. If you don’t mind the extra verification step at startup, it’s a fantastic choice for picture quality, sound, and ease of use.

Hi user109488,
We are truly delighted to hear that you are very impressed with the outstanding picture quality, excellent sound performance, and lightweight, user-friendly design of your 43" Class BRAVIA 2 II LED 4K TV—it sounds like a significant upgrade! We sincerely apologize for the frustration caused by the repeated startup code/password verification, which we agree is inconvenient for daily use. This prompt is typically tied to a parental control feature called "Restricted Profile" or a similar lock within the Google TV settings (like "Profile Lock" or "Device Lock") which may have been activated during the initial setup.1 To disable this, please navigate to Settings $\to$ System (or Device Preferences) $\to$ Security & Restrictions $\to$ and look for options like Restricted Profile or Device Lock to turn the feature off or exit the profile mode, which should eliminate the code prompt upon startup.Thanks for choosing Sony.Best regards,Eliab

I bought this TV about a month ago to replace a bedroom TV that was really old. It was super easy to set up and the picture is crystal clear. It's a great size for the room. And the remote is so much better than the one I have for my other Sony TV. It's smaller and doesn't have so many buttons that I never use.

I bought the Sony 43" BRAVIA 2 II for my dad and he absolutely loves it. The picture quality is clear and sharp, even with regular cable, and 4K content looks great. The Google TV interface is simple and easy for him to navigate, which was important. The remote is straightforward, setup was quick, and everything just works. Sound is solid for built-in speakers. Overall, it’s a great TV for everyday watching and a perfect size for a living room or bedroom. Very happy with this purchase.

Love this tv!!! In a small bedroom it feels like a 55 inch. Color, details, and sound - top notch. My only criticism is the glare, so keep that in mind if you will be in a room with the window open a lot or a lamp in view of the screen. Even with that I still love the tv and I am very happy with my purchase. Highly recommend.
