Excellent picture.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent picture and perfect size for an apartment living room or bedroom. Unpacking it was a hassle, but I suppose that's necessary to protect it. If this model looks good to you, be sure to check out the 55-inch version; I failed to do so during a Memorial Day weekend sale and realized later I could have had the slighter larger version for just $40 or so more. I've got it hooked up to a Sony sound bar, so not sure just how good it sounds without the help.

Open Box Savings are great
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great open box purchase. TV works great. Good value. Missing mounting screw parts. In fairness, I never reached out to Best Buy. Bought screws for $4 from Home Depot. Well worth the purchase.

High quality Sony TV
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my first Sony TV since the days of the big box TVs. I've purchased Sharp, LG, Samsung, and Insignia brand TVs in the past. This is better than most of those brands. I have an OLED LG with better picture quality than this TV but it cost quite a bit more, and this TV comes pretty close to that quality. The build and look of this TV are great, the interface is easy to use and the remote control works well. I haven't tried gaming on this TV but for streaming, it's pretty close to perfect at this price point.

The picture and the sound are exceptional! Had to purchase a ROKU as this tv would not allow download of tennis Channel App. TV is a Google product and I had a bit of a learning curve to understand how it worked.

2nd tv in two years plus new fees from Best Buy
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this at the suggestion of the Best Buy salesman. We also purchased our previous tv through Best Buy. We started having problems with it and then lost picture. Although we are total tech we had to pay for the tech to come out. That fee was 99$ to tell us it could not be fixed. The tv was just a few months passed its two year warranty ! We also had to pay for delivery and install of the new tv. We’ll see if this tv lasts more than two years!
