TV resets itself on it own alot.
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We have had it for years. It is OK, but the issues we have had is mostly with it rebooting itself right in the middle of watching something. I am guessing its the Android OS updating or something but I will neve by again. Also the remote takes sometimes multiply pushes like sometime 10 to get it to reconginize and do what we want. But it has lasted and does the job. Just very anoying when you in the middle of a game and the screen goes black and the TV is reseting itself. We also added a sound bar because I believe the speakers face backwards on this so you have to really turn it up to her and of course sound bar with wolfer is way better.

Great value!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.2nd Sony LED TV for us. Good value, nice picture - no problems with them. This model has a feature to allow 'auto audio set up' using the remote's microphone. We tried that and the sound was actually horrible. Once I disabled that and just let it run on defaults it sounds very good. If you plan to watch off-axis the colors will wash out, but not any worse than other TVs unless you want to get an OLED. The Samsung TV's seem to be a bit more vibrant when I compared them in the store, but I prefer the Sony's as I feel their picture is more accurate and natural.

An amazing screen
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've read so many reviews and seen different opinions on how good or not so good it is and definitely must say it's way better than most people say. You must learn how to use and configure to get the best of it. I'm using it with my PS5 while playing CoD and definitely it runs smoothly! Sound is really great, some say you'll need a sound system but honestly I don't get why as the sound is amazing and loud, very loud!

Time tested. What are you waiting for
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had a Sony flat screen for 16 years. Not a lick of trouble. Picture was good quality but this was when flat screens were coming on the scene. Replaced with another Sony. 50” because of space constraints. Outstanding picture quality. “You’ve come a long way baby”. Best Buy delivery and set up top notch. Geek tech explained everything about the TV capabilities and the cable. Here’s to the next 16 years!!!

Excellent TV for Bright Rooms
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We purchased this Sony to replace a relocated TV. We can actually see the picture in our bright sunroom and from any angle. Sound quality is excellent and we are using it without a soundbar. The responsiveness of the TV to open streaming apps is also greatly appreciated, as compared to our 2015 Sony XBR, the difference is immediately noticeable. Overall, a quality twlevision that serves multiple roles very, very well.
