Sony Quality at a Bargain Price
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have nine Sony TVs throughout my house - everything from a KDL-32W600D in my office to an XBR-85A9G in the "great room". I guess you would say I'm a Sony loyalist - even my alarm clocks are all Sony! I have this particular TV in my garage/work room. As with most Sony TV's, the picture quality was great, straight out of box. I set the picture quality to "Dolby Vision Bright" and did not need to make any adjustments. The sound quality is good for an entry level set such as this one. I use a Roku ultra device as audio/video source. The Roku's remote can control your TV, so I use it in place of the supplied Sony remote. The Sony remote is "bare bones" and is the one "ding" against this TV but as I mentioned, I don't really need it since I use the Roku remote. So, overall, I would definitely recommend this TV to someone looking for Sony quality at a bargain price.

Excellent HDR performance and Google UI for budget
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Brilliant while in HDR mode. Google-enabled feature is helpful, but also not bloated, or in the way. The settings and ui are mostly intuitive, and switching inputs or apps is fast and painless. The sound is not good, but I did not purchase this TV for its native sound, as we use an external sound system. The remote is OK, but you may accidentally hit a button or two. Otherwise a thin, and light remote. NOTE: we disconnected our FireTV because it almost seemed the two AI personalities were clashing, causing sudden input switching and other small annoyances. Still not sure if the problem was the TV or not, but every time it switched to the Arc input.

Posted .Hi ChesterSlick,
Thank you so much for the 5-star rating! We're really glad you are enjoying the amazing picture, sound, Google TV features and overall performance of the X80K TV. However, we are sorry to hear some issues that you are experiencing with the unit. Allow us to help troubleshoot the problem. If your TV switches automatically to an HDMI input: the TV may switch to the last input used for an external device connected via HDMI cable such as a game console (PS3 or PS4), High-definition cable box or satellite receiver, A/V receiver, Blu-ray Disc® player, media player, or a home theater system. The BRAVIA Sync function of the TV sets priority to the device connected to the ARC (Audio Return Channel) input of the TV. If third party device (that is not compatible with the BRAVIA Sync feature) is connected, the TV may switch to the input used by the BRAVIA Sync compatible device. To fix this issue, make sure to set the BRAVIA Sync control setting on the TV to Off.

Complete package!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best purchase ever. For the price, this is an absolute steal, not only the Google OS is seamless, the home theater like built in speakers make it such an experience. Sticking to Sony Bravia’s for the foreseen future. One can also personalize each HDMI slot depending on what its used for, TV, PS etc… the level of brightness and sound is adjusted accordingly.

Excellent Purchasd open box
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The TV is very pretty however, it is very dim. On the bright side you do get used to it. Veiwing angles are excellent and content in HDR is mind blowing competing with my LG CX OLED. Moreover no need for a soundbar even several feet from the tv it outputs epic sound. Overall a reccomended Buy

It’s was super quick and easy to place a pickup order for this TV and was ready literally in about 5 minutes. Everyone was nice and fast and not to mention the TV being the Sony brand was great for its price and I did check other store before buying from Best Buy so I’m not lying!

Sony bravia TV sets are the best
