    Love my New Sony TV. I always buy Sony. My last one was the old school plasma tv which the Bravia replaced. The picture is so crisp. Love the Smart TV features. Can't go wrong purchasing a Sony. The first one I got was damaged in the box from mishandling and allow me to say the customer service was excellent at the Vineland store for my exchange. Thanks Best Buy!

    I've had my share of TV's and I have to admit that this Sony is no doubt the best I've ever had and I really got this with the PS5 in mind and was fortunate to get one a couple of weeks after purchasing the TV. The games and movies look incredible, I would or I should say I am recommending this TV.

    Obviously an OLED would have a slightly better picture. So it's more "HDRish". The picture is pretty good (not breathtaking) the sound out of the TV is good (not great). The remote feels a little awkward in my (very large) hands. Of course my last Bravia had been running continuously for the last 15 years (without being turned off). So if I get anything like that life i'll be very happy.

    Great picture quality. Our last TV is about 10 years old so the improvement is huge. The remote is good. I’m using a Sony sound bar so I can’t comment on the sound from TV only. Really my only concern would be I am disappointed I can’t add the Spectrum app and have to use a Roku or other device if I want to get rid of the cable box.

    I just had my Sony TV installed today 4/1. I was away for 2 and half weeks so it worked out well for me. I love the rich color it has. The picture is clear like I like it. I had a bought a different brand and it was just blah. I will be enjoying the tv for a long time.

    Overall I like it. It got good reviews. The 50 inch size fits well in the corner of the living room next to the fireplace. Haven't been able to get too involved with figuring out it works as I had surgery a few days after it was installed. It was a gift to myself to enjoy during recovery.

    This is an excellent TV. I purchased it to replace a Vizio TV that only lasted 24 months before the backlight began to fail. The picture is the best I have ever seen. My only complaint is the sound is a little tinny. But, since I have a sound bar, it’s not a problem.

    I am really enjoying this beautiful television. I had intended to shop for a 42" tv, but I'm happy I got the larger screen. I wouldn't have been happy with a smaller tv. And Sony never disappoints; it looks great and the Google television has an easy to use interface.
