    I wanted a Sony TV, that is all we have bought for years and they have always made us happy, till this one. Don't buy a TV with Google, it is to invasive to your life. Can't set the TV up with a Google account. Why does Google have to update all the time? So many things plasted to the screen when you turn it on you can find what you want. When you do fond it the next time it has moved. The great Sony TV is now something I wish I had never bought because of the Google, there should be a law on how Google invades everything like your cell phone and e-mail when you don't give that info.

      Hi madeamistake, thanks for choosing and purchasing our product. We're sorry to hear that you have an issue with setting up your Sony unit without a Google account. You have the option to skip the Google sign-in on the initial setup of the TV. You can enjoy some functions on your Android TV™ device without a Google™ account. You can watch TV programs and enjoy all Sony® apps, home network functions for the Album, Music, and Video apps. Certain functions, such as the Google voice search function, Chromecast™ built-in (Google Cast), internet browsing, and the YouTube™ app, are available without logging in to a Google account. However, you will not be able to rent or buy movies, TV shows, and apps from the Google Play™ Store.

      Regarding the frequent updates, Google updates its services regularly to improve security, add new features, and enhance performance. While these updates can sometimes be inconvenient, they are essential for maintaining the functionality and security of your device.

      If you find the screen cluttered with too many options, you can customize the home screen to better suit your preferences. This can usually be done through the settings menu by organizing or hiding certain apps and features. Please check these links for more details:

    Controls lack a number pad to select your TV station. It does have voice commands that work good. TV is hard to turn off. Not sure what it wants. Some times I have to use voice commands to get results. Manual is very poor.

      Hi JonathonG,

      Thanks for sharing your review and experience with the BRAVIA 3. We're glad that you are enjoying the picture quality of the TV and how it works well with your PS5.

      We understand your need to switch input effortlessly. The TV remote control supports voice control using the Google Assistant or MIC button. Ask Google to find movies, stream apps, play music, and control the TV - all with your voice. Press the Google Assistant (or MIC) button on the remote to get started. For more information, please refer to this link:

      https://helpguide.sony.net/tv/lusltn2/v1/en-003/01-08_01.html

      Hope this helps. Thank you for choosing Sony!

    Sony screen freeze problem

    Bought the Sony - 43" Class BRAVIA 3 LED 4K UHD Smart Google TV (2024) Model:K43S30 SKU:6578580. Within 2 days had the channel screen freeze as noted by other reviews. Sony response is to factory reset and restart. Best Buy store rep said to change antenna source. Did not work. Returned and received a replacement. Two days later same screen freeze. I was going to by another like model, now I'm not. Sony needs to have a software update to solve this problem.

      Hi DavidB, Thank you for your feedback. We apologize for the inconvenience you have experienced. We understand your frustration with the screen freezing issue. Our team is aware of the problem and are actively working on a solution. In the meantime, we recommend trying the following steps:

      Set the Bravia Sync to OFF On the remote control, press the (Quick Settings) button and select Settings → Channels & Inputs → External inputs → BRAVIA Sync settings→ turn OFF BRAVIA Sync control

      Hi MaxineM, thank you for sharing your review of the Sony K65S30 TV.

      We appreciate your feedback and are glad to hear that you are overall satisfied with your purchase. To address your concerns regarding picture quality and color comparison to Samsung, we would like to provide some optimization tips and highlight unique features of your Sony TV.

      Optimization Tips for Picture Quality
      Picture Mode: Choose the appropriate Picture mode based on your viewing environment and content. Options such as 'Vivid' for enhanced colors and brightness, 'Cinema' for balanced brightness and color depth, and 'Standard' for everyday use can significantly impact your viewing experience.

      Color Adjustments: You can adjust color saturation, hue, and color temperature through advanced settings. The 'Live Color' function enhances the vividness of colors, and options such as 'Warm,' 'Natural,' 'Cool,' and 'Expert' modes allow you to fine-tune the color temperature.

      Brightness and Contrast: Adjust the brightness and contrast settings to display the brightest whites and deepest blacks, creating a more dynamic and visually pleasing picture. Utilizing features like 'Auto Local Dimming' and 'X-tended Dynamic Range' can further boost these aspects.

      Motion Settings: Enable 'Motionflow' to adjust the smoothness and clearness of moving images. This can enhance clarity and reduce motion blur, providing a sharper and more immersive viewing experience.

      Unique Features and Strengths
      4K HDR Processor X1™: This processor intelligently enhances every scene in real-time, boosting color, contrast, and clarity to produce lifelike picture quality.

      Triluminos Pro™ Technology: With Triluminos Pro™, your TV can display over a billion accurate colors, achieving vivid and bright picture quality.

      Studio Calibrated Mode: This mode allows your TV to faithfully reproduce content as creators intended, offering a higher level of picture accuracy for streaming and entertainment apps.

      If you have any further feedback or need any assistance, please don't hesitate to reach out.

      Hi PatriciaM,

      Thanks for sharing your experience. We understand that setting up the remote alongside both Wi-Fi and a Verizon Box can be a little confusing at first. Once everything is properly synced, though, the control should be much smoother. Your input helps us continue improving setup guidance for future users.
