    The colors and sound are good. However, for anything really dark, it is hard to see detail. Someone wear's something black, and it's like black paint. Hard to see detail.

      Hi DanV,

      Thank you for your feedback. We're glad you're enjoying the colors and sound, but we're sorry to hear about the difficulty seeing detail in dark scenes. This is not the intended experience.

      We recommend adjusting the Brightness or Black Level in your picture settings, or trying a different picture mode like Cinema to help reveal more detail.

      If the issue persists, our support team can provide further assistance. You can contact them directly by visiting this link: https://us.esupport.sony.com/support/s/support-contact?language=en_US&category=tv

      Thanks for choosing Sony.

    Completely died 6 weeks after purchasing

    We have Sony TVs throughout our house and purchased this one for our son’s room because we thought the quality would be a step above the less expensive, off-name brands. The TV just simply stopped turning on 6 weeks after purchasing. We attempted to get help from Best Buy (because it’s a BRAND NEW TV THAT COMPLETELY STOPPED WORKING FIR NO APPARENT REASON 6 WEEKS AFTER PURCHASING) and Best Buy told us that they couldn’t help because we were outside the 15 day return window (???). They did offer to send out a repair technician at a cost to us (um, no thank you …). I contacted Sony directly and they are replacing the TV for us at no cost. In fact, the replacement TV shipped today. This has been an egregiously terrible customer service experience with Best Buy. They absolutely should have taken care of this. I suspect that our lemon of a TV is an anomaly and that the replacement TV will be fine. We have not had any problems with the 6 other Sony TVs throughout our house (all purchased more than 5 years ago).
