A Perfectly Fine TV
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'll be the first to admit that I'm not a cinephile by any means, but I upgraded from a 30" TV when I moved into a new apartment and as far a modest upgrade goes, it's...fine, I guess? It's essentially an entry-level 4K TV: it *technically* does HDR but not very well, and I wish it was a bit brighter (or at least had less glare when a light was shined in its general direction). For what it offers, it's fine, if maybe a little expensive. Can't comment on the sound quality, because I immediately hooked it up to my soundbar.

Posted .Hi David,
We appreciate your candid feedback regarding the 43" BRAVIA 3. We understand that as an entry-level 4K model, you were underwhelmed by the brightness, HDR performance, and were impacted by glare.
To help maximize the picture quality, please try turning off the Light Sensor in the picture settings and switch to the Vivid Picture Mode in bright rooms, as this will help the screen reach its maximum brightness. If you are still unsatisfied with the viewing experience, please reach out to our support team for model-specific picture adjustments and to ensure the TV is performing optimally: https://us.esupport.sony.com/support/s/support-contact?language=en_US
Thanks for choosing Sony.

I love it..
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love it. You don't need 4K signal for this even though it is capable for 4k, and the TV doesn't force you to 'upscale' 2K to 4K. The picture and sound are amazing. I am enjoying it. My Netflix shows are much more interesting now.

In need of an upgrade
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I currently have an older Bravia that’s still working, I was in need of an upgrade. While I wanted a larger screen, I’m limited in space. I had been looking at older Sony tv’s with more features, this happened to peak my interest. So far I’m pleased with my purchase.
