Excellent Service and Experience
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased the New Bravia 3 TV over the older models after a discussion with the Best Buy Sales Consultant. He provide very useful information and offered valuable advise. Delivery to the store took 2 days, as promised. The pick-up was easy and set-up the same. The image quality is very good. At this point, I've only set it up as a standard TV but once I'm used to its operation via my DISH remote, I'll activate the Google TV feature.

Posted .Thank you for sharing your feedback, JanetB.
We are truly sorry to hear about the frustrating experience and the long delay you faced with your order. While we are glad Customer Service was able to get it straightened out, we regret that the process took three weeks and multiple trips. This is certainly not the smooth experience we want for our customers.
We hope that now that you have your K-50S30 home, the picture quality and performance are making up for the difficult start. Your feedback regarding the purchase process is very important to us.
Thank you for your patience and for choosing Sony.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We were looking for a TV that had a plug in for a head phone as we had had a problem with just hearing aids. The gentleman who helped us took extra time to check all TV’s for us. They no longer make plugs for head phones but we bought a new TV.

Affordable option for 4K and a a reliable brand
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We have purchased some movies in UHD and they look great on the Sony Bravia 3. We have another tv that is not 4K and UHD looks really weird on it. Definitely nice to have a tv that keeps up with higher resolution, and less expensive than many models. Didn't have to pay $1,000 or even twice that for all the features we wanted. Google TV Home is very convenient.

Posted .Thank you for the fantastic review, GALib!
It is wonderful to hear that your movies are looking great on your new BRAVIA 3. We definitely understand that "weird look" you see on non-4K TVs—since those screens can't handle features like HDR or upscale the content as our BRAVIAs do, the colors can definitely end up looking a bit strange!
We’re so glad that the BRAVIA 3 is giving you all those premium features like Google TV and high-resolution playback without the premium price tag.
Thanks for choosing Sony!

Sound quality is great out of the box!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's a fine tv. I have the comparable Samsung in another room as well and can honestly say that the sound quality straight from the Sony TV is far and away better than the other and to me, that's worth it. Don't get me wrong, it can still benefit from a sound bar, but out of the box, it sounds great.
