Great gaming TV for PS5
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was pleasantly surprised at how good this tv works with the PS5. Sony wasn’t lying when they said it works perfectly with the system. Setup was a breeze. It’s connects to wifi and get its updates, and the remote has a mic built in for talk to text input on apps like YouTube. My only caution is to warn about buying a UPC for this tv if it’s running off the same outlet as the PS5. The two together draw lots of power and the tv will sometimes flash blank for 2 seconds when power draw is high, so for online gaming you could die in that 2 seconds. I recommend a UPC with any gaming tv and a ps5, especially if Lennar built your home.

I bought the Sony because it got avery good rating in consumer reports magazine. It was a little more than I had wanted to spend bought I went for it anyway and haven't regretted it. Excellent picture quality and easy to set-up. Yes I would recommend this set.

Got this for my bedroom to hook up my PS5 and works great after a month of owning the TV. Definitely recommend this TV for gaming consoles or even a PC if you have a powerful GPU.

Best TV I’ve ever owned
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best TV I’ve ever owned. Only problem is 2 burnt out pixels, but I’m under warranty. I can’t say enough good things about it especially for the price. Also it’s tough to find a tv this powerful and not gigantic or tiny. It’s great all around.

Excellent TV
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Upgraded on older 40" TV to this 43". What an improvement. Easy set up and picture and sound are amazing, and you can connect headphones via bluetooth so you can enjoy TV without disturbing others. Love Sony products, a bit more money than an LG, but worth it.

Awesome 2nd TV!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great TV! This is a really nice 2nd TV. The Sony picture quality has been excellent for years. I mounted it on a wall in the kitchen and it’s very handy. I also have a 48” OLED Sony, which is better quality than the 43” LED, but also quite a bit more expensive. The sound quality is okay, but I’m using a Sonos Beam 2 for better sound.

Combining Sony TV and Verizon cable is hard to do
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Sony picture is great. Combining it with a Verizon STB has been difficult to do well. In order to control STB I need to use an older verizon remote. The new one will not work properly. The Sony remote does not provide access to the Verizon menu and guide. It's all very confusing.

Decent quality. Best for small room only.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Android software and picture quality are working fine. I kinda wish I had realized this used a VA type LED display panel though. Picture quality off to the sides degrades rapidly, and not all reviewers online mentioned how bad it is off-axis.
