After moving our home theater to a different room, we wanted a great TV without spending a lot of money. This SONY 43" TV fit the bill -- while not the top in technology, it's perfect for our old space. We'll get to see a crisp, clear picture from all angles.

Sony uses the same processor on their smaller screens unlike other brands that use an inferior graphics for there smaller sets. So the color saturation and black lighting is great. However, this is the second one I purchased. The first one lasted 12 years until lighting took it out. For some reason I liked the old one better. Can’t quite put my finger on it though. It is certainly not the top of the line anymore but still not quite as good as it used to be. I would still purchase it for the price though.

Hello DANIELT,
Thank you for choosing Sony!
We couldn't be happier to hear that you value the K43S30 TV's processor and its impressive color saturation and black lighting. It's remarkable that your first TV lasted 12 years, and we appreciate your honest feedback about the differences between the models. We're glad you still find great value in this TV for the price. Thank you for your continued trust in our product!
Best regards, -Fred

This TV is outstanding. We have purchased about 5 Sony TVs over the years and have never had a problem. This TV replaced my 10 year old Sony which was not a Smart TV. Otherwise I would not have replaced it. Perfect size for a bedroom and the sound quality is very good - no real need for a sound bar.

Sony Bravia Issue with ESPN app

Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.
This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
My 11 year old Vizio TV stopped working. I was planning to buy a 43" Samsung TV. The salesperson at BestBuy talked me into buying this Sony Bravia...I was rather easily persuaded because the picture quality on this TV appeared substantially better than all the rest of the ones on display. However, out of the box the picture quality was so unnatural and pretty bad. No instruction manuals comes with it, I had to watch a few youtube videos to adjust the picture quality. Do not be misled by how good TV screens appear in a showroom.
I have subscriptions to Amazon Prime, Youtube Premium, and ESPN+. There is a major issue with the ESPN app on Sony Bravia TVs...after 45 minutes on ESPN app, TV freezes and shuts down, you have to unplug and replug to restart the TV. Everyone has this problem with Sony Bravia TVs and Sony has no solution for it! If you call Sony support, they will tell you to uninstall and reinstall the app which is a complete waste of time, the same issue still exists. I wish I bought a Samsung TV.

Television gives crisp clear picture. Sound is good. Instruction manual is not much help. Doesn’t give much detail on how to navigate the tv. So you have to go online or ‘hunt and peck’ to figure out how to do stuff.
