Lies, lies, lies
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.TV is fine, with caveats. I bought this as an excellent open-box deal. Excellent, famously, means that you are paying extra for an item that "includes all original parts, packaging and accessories (or suitable replacement)." Imagine my surprise when I received the TV in a box with a big honking label on the outside saying that it was missing the stand and the remote. I drove it down to the local store so that they could provide me with the missing pieces: "Sorry, not our problem--this came from a warehouse and we don't have anything we can give you" (of course, they have a lot of new TVs they could take these items from but wouldn't do that). Called support: "Sorry, you gotta take it to your local store, they deal with the open box stuff, not us." Not one person reachable through Best Buy was able to do anything about it, despite the false advertising which is still on the item today. You're better off buying from a merchant that stands behind their products. I guess BB is just hoping people won't complain or return these and taking the profit in the meantime.

Sony TV
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I think the sound quality is better than most tv’s and under appreciated. I wish they had more preset themes for the picture quality so you arent forced to adjust the sliders to figure out what you want for each device.
