Best TV/Minitor I have.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After using FireTv for our house, I finally had a chance to grab a Google Tv for my office. Should have made the change a long time ago! Connectivity is oustanding, picture is awesome and fully adjustable, and it even works as a super size monitor for doing drawing with Bluebeam for work.

Great TV for Office
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sony doesn't fail to deliver. This tv has a solid picture. We have put it in a small home office so it really doesn't get a lot of usage but so far it is great. You may need to adjust the settings according to your ambient light. Apps work good with little to no lag.

||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.the quality of this tv is OUTSTANDING to say the least. my bf and i were in the market for a new tv for his PS5 set up, we were in the store for over an hour reviewing options, we spoke with an associate about a couple tv’s we had in mind. ultimately the associate said this would be our best bet, so we put it to the test. turned on ALL the tv’s that we were debating on, compared & contrasted & we ended up with this baby! BEST decision weve made. the performance is out of this world, when my bf plays his ps5 games, spiderman in particular, it looks so live! i cant evn explain it.

Sony bravia 50"
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a replacement for my previous Bravia tv. The 4k upgrade looks great. Out of the box it did take some time for color grading (intitially TOO vibrant) but it's been solid. I use an external sound system so I can't rate the built-in audio but I'm quite happy with the tv.

Can't beat Sony!
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love this tv! First smart tv I've owned and I am very pleased with it. Can't beat Sony quality and reliability. My previous tv was a Sony and never had a single problem with it during the 12 years I've owned it. Agree with other reviews in that I wish the remote had a keypad on it but i have other remote that i use. Easy to setup. Highly recommend.

Great TV. Good deal. Very satisfied.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this as a replacement for a smaller Sony during a black Friday sale. Very easy to set up, incredible picture, good sound. Not sure yet if I'm going to connect the surround system because the audio from the unit is acceptable without it. Only downside I can think of is that it defaults to the TV Home screen instead of the last input used. It will go there after about 10 seconds, though, so it's not a deal breaker. I'm sure there is something in settings to change that. Overall, very satisfied and would heartily recommend to anyone.

Impressive Picture, Mediocre Sound
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The picture is excellent for the price and size. The only issue is that the quality of the built-in speakers is not up to the same level. The frequency range is missing too much at the low end, compared to other brands that actually cost less. But of course if you use external speakers this will not matter.

TV is a winner!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very happy that we purchased this TV. Picture clarity is amazing. Navigating internal menu system is not entirely intuitive, but online manuals helped us weather that. Initial network setup failed a number of times. While the software connected to our internal WIFI just fine, several times setup returned a error indicating the network wasn't connected to the internet. Eventually, after 4 or 5 retries, it completed the network setup and we haven't had an issue since. Have not configured any internal streaming apps as we have a device that we're happy with. Was able to hook up to our stereo system connecting the digital port to an analog converter. Sound out of our old Bose speakers is really good. The internal speakers seem very good for us and more than loud enough. We rarely have the sound turned up beyond 7. We would recommend this TV to anyone.

Great for daytime use
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great picture quality. The only reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 is because the dimming capacity is limited, so I wouldn't recommend it for a dark room or if you primarily would use it at night. Otherwise fantastic product.
