I have several TV's in my home (mostly Samsung and Sony), and while the Sony TV's show a great picture, they can be a little pricey. I got this one on a great deal.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My previous TV was a Sony (CRT) that lasted 17 years, so I wanted another Sony. It was installed about three weeks ago and it has been great so far. The colors are bright and sharp and the sound quality is good.

Great 43" TV
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love this television. Using it as a bedroom set. It replaced a 13 year old 32" Sony. Having Google TV is a game changer versus having to plug in an external media hub/box. I have to use the wireless connection, but apps stream without buffering. Picture quality is great. Sound is good, but will be buying a soundbar anyway during BF sales. Typical, high quality product from Sony. Can be put together by one person, but always easier with a second. Just take your time and it can be done.

Awesomesauce!
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I mainly use the TV for the XBOX Series X and movies and I have to say that the picture quality is out foxtrot standing! For gaming on the XBOX the HDR10, 4K, 60FPS at 120hz is just awesome and 4K movies just pop! The internal sound is very good and the remote is bluetooth so does not have to point at the TV to work any function, plus the voice control on the remote works great. The apps are plentyful and kept updated. Nothing bad I can say about this TV!

Great 4K TV!!
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was hesitant on this tv as I have never had a google tv before. But after using it I can say that the tv is awesome. It has an Ethernet port, so buffering is a thing of the past with this tv. There are tons of built in apps included and the remote has a voice function so you can search seamlessly. The overall picture quality is nice as well. The setup was a breeze and the remote has a calibration feature that helps set up the tv for each room depending on the layout and the furniture present.

The only 120Mz in its category for the price.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The X85K comes with much better specs compared to any other 43" LED and its the only 120Hz TV in its price category compared to other comparable spec LED"s. The processor is also a lot faster while operating TV channel and programs. It is a great TV for the price. I ended up returning this particular TV because it froze on several occasions in first 10 days. Also more on personal experience when comparing its picture quality and sound with my previous Sony 43" 800XE that I was replacing was not as good. If I didn't have plans to upgrade to another larger size Sony TV I would have just exchanged the X85K and kept it.

Liking it!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I wanted a screen that I could also use for PC gaming. This is a good option that won't break the bank. With (native) resolution you can get 60hz from your pc, if you lower the resolution, you can get 120hz. Still, this TV is fast & responsive: loading & searching, very smooth. I purchased an "open box excellent." I live in Maui, no store here, shipping was fast, screen is perfect. Keep it up bb!
