Good but
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I enjoyed this sony tv for almost two weeks. It had good quality the picture was realistic like. The tv speakers without sound bar they sounded good with good bass I was shocked. But the thing that doomed it for me it was to thick like a tv from 12 years ago. I ended up going with LG C2 and I’m very happy

Great Value
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great picture. I'm using as a tv/second monitor and works great for both uses. I've also used it for gaming and it handles that very well. I do recommend turning off some of frame rate smoothing but I'd recommend that on every tv I've ever seen.

Very Good TV for the price.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The image is crisp and clear. Needs a bit of calibration out of box, but not an unreasonable amount. The apps work well and the Google UI is quite snappy. The auto-sync feature with the PS5 is very nice and games run smoothly. The TV does not get super bright, so these do well as a bedroom TV more than a main screen in the living room.
