    Sony 43" Bravia review

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Excellent TV, easy to setup. The only item I took issue with the TV is the TV remote. I don't particularly like the fact it does not have a numeric key pad and that I have to go into a menu on screen to select the channel. It takes longer to scroll through the onscreen channels than it would to use a keypad. Even selecting the previous channel I have to use the onscreen menu. What's with that?

    Sony meets the mark on picture quality

    Great 43” TV. Very crisp, clear picture with extraordinary color. No blurring when watching fast action. Excellent sound also. A little more pricy than other brands, but picture quality is superb. However, You are on your own with set-up, as the owners manual only shows how to take it out of the box, put the stand on, or mount to a wall bracket.

    No Hulu

    I have had this tv for over a year and enjoyed it. Was even thinking about getting another for bedroom but I’m sure glad I didn’t … Couple days ago I couldn’t open the Hulu app. I tried to update the app but it wouldn’t update. Then I deleted the app to try re-install and that didn’t work either. Looked online and found some tech type conversations about Hulu problem but that was over my head. Today I tried again to download the Hulu app. Found ‘Hulu for Android TV’ … this is a Google TV, and my television actually said to me: ‘HULU isn’t available for this TV’ Sucks, doesn’t it?
