Worth the Price
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great tv for the price! Didn't care for an OLED or super big screen, so this was the best deal for me. It does what I want, works with the rest of my equipment, and has had no issues

Great TV but lacking one important feature
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this TV to replace a previous TV whose backlight had failed. The picture and sound quality are excellent. I watch TV through both an HDMI satellite box as well as through several streaming services. When I watch older shows that predate HD by decades, I'm impressed by just how clear the engine upscales the images. I made a few extra tweaks of my own on top of those settings, and everything looks even better. I subtract two stars because this TV doesn't support wi-fi direct display mirroring for Windows laptops. The much cheaper TV this one replaced had that feature. I hope Sony rolls this out at some point through firmware. If they do, this will be a perfect TV.

Posted .Hi TylerB,
Thank for commenting. We're happy to hear about your satisfaction with the amazing picture & sound quality, upscaling feature, and superb performance of your BRAVIA 3. We greatly appreciate your input about the Wi-Fi Direct or Screen Mirroring function and we're sorry if this TV doesn't support it. As an alternative, you may use the built-in Chromecast of the TV to cast your favorite websites and app screens on your mobile device or computer directly to the TV. For more information on how you can cast content from your mobile device or computer to a Google TV, please refer to the following article:

Nice picture awful menu
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have the same tv except in a 55 which is terrific. This one came with a different controller that quit after one month. Bought a generic knock off that works just as well but for the tv menu to select a show is arduous if you use antenna.

Posted .Thank you for sharing your feedback, Eiffel.
We are pleased to hear that you find the picture quality of your K-43S30 television to be terrific, just like your 55-inch model. However, we are sincerely sorry to hear about the failure of the original controller after only one month. That is certainly not the quality or longevity we expect from our accessories, and we apologize for the inconvenience this caused.
We understand that navigating the TV menu, especially when using an antenna to select shows, can be frustrating, and we regret that the loss of the original remote has made this process arduous for you. While the generic remote may function for basic commands, the original Sony remote is designed to offer the most seamless and efficient experience when interacting with the TV's specific menu structure and antenna guide.
If you would like assistance with finding a genuine replacement remote, or if you would like troubleshooting steps to ensure your antenna guide experience is as smooth as possible, please contact our support team directly:

TV Display was Great
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall, TV has worked well. There have been a continuing issue with its relationship with old SONY sound bars and with the use of an Apple TV to interface with streaming services. Sony tech support was finally able to resolve the issues and get everything working correctly and consistently. Sound bar issue had to be resolved by replacing the 19 year old device with a compatible SONY sound system.
