Good Service-Great Product!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchase went well…until I realized the salesperson gave me a 32”, rather than a 43” Sony Bravia! Had to reorder & have new one delivered. I returned the original one with no issues. Everyone involved was most helpful, polite & professional. Just a “human error”. TV is greatly being enjoy-fab quality! So nice to have a SMART TV!

Not a happy SONY customer
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not happy with this purchase. Remote control is very small with the buttons so close together that 90% of the time you make the wrong choice in the menu. The screen is chockfull of apps and information that you don't need and which is overwhelming. When you try to turn off the set 2 choices appear. One says Re-start and the other one says Close and it takes several tries before you can actually turn off the set.

Garbage tv. Avoid
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This TV is garbage. Purchased 1 month ago. Every time i turn it off it no longer recognizes my wifi. I then have to unplug it for 30 seconds to reset. It sees my wifi until i turn it off, then it no longer sees my wifi. It is wall mounted so it is extremely difficult to unplug. Wasted $100 on geek suqad protection. Was tolb by Best Buy that it's Sony's problem. Sony doesn't answer the phone. Complete rip off

Nothing Google ever again
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Posted .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:
