Stellar picture. Mediocre Sound.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm rating this 4 stars because this is a television and not a stereo system. The picture is incredible in 1080p HD and even more incredible when playing blu-ray. Colors are rich. Whites are very white and blacks are solid. The audio quality is subpar but what do you expect out of a slim nearly borderless television? I purchased a sony soundbar and sub woofer on a promo deal when buying this TV which I also recommend.

Great choice
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After the demise of another Sony TV I started hunting for a replacement, This 4K Ultra 55" Sony was the best fit for my needs, and it fit in a VW Jetta sedan. I have liked Sony TV's for years because of their picture quality and the styling. This unit was no exception. Out of the box easy to set up fantastic Picture and sound quality. I am very happy with it and look foreword to many years of trouble free service. Great sales people in the Minnetonka Store helped guide my decision. Thank you !!

I bought this tv because of the picture quality.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Buying a television with the features I required took some time. I visited the Best Buy store twice before I made my decision. The best buy associate I first dealt with was knowledgeable, professional and kind. I did wait for the tv I chose to go on sale. I did buy the Warranty for the TV and had the geek squad set the tv up and mount it on the wall. Paying for the warranty and the geek squad was money well spent. My geek squad technicans, Amanda and Johnny were outstanding.

Awesomeness for a good price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have had the XBR-55X850D for almost 2 months now and must say this was one of my best purchases ever. Love the picture quality (including its upscaling capabilities) especially for 4K material. 1080P material looks fantastic as well. Also love the seamless Netflix integration. As for sound, don't expect too much. No bass, period. I got myself the Sony Soundbar HT-CT790 (connected via HDMI ARC), and it's a perfect match. Now have great picture with great sound for a great price.

Love the new 55" Sony TV...perfect size for us.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm a true Sony fan and wouldn't buy any other TV. We had a 32" and upgraded to a 55", which is perfect for our large bedroom. They may cost a bit more but they have superb color, clarity and will last a very long time. I still have my first 65" we bought in the 90's that hasn't missed a beat, although it has been retired to the basement to live out its glory days with the VCR. I'm sure this one will last decades too. If you want quality & longevity, then this is the TV for you.

Very Pleased
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I recently purchased this Sony 55 inch UHD TV. I was actually interested in a Samsung but found this unit on sale. Glad I did. The set up was easy. Very pleased with the picture. The audio is acceptable, better than the audio on the unit I replaced. Still plan to purchase a sound bar though. Would recommend it to a friend. I placed my order on-line from Best Buy. Picked it up the same day, the unit was ready for pick up when I arrived at the store. Good overall experience.

Great TV
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This TV literally looks just like the display at home. The colors pop just as much on Netflix as the demo mode at Best Buy which is rare in my opinion. Blacks could be a little better, but we are talking $1100 for a TV so I am not complaining. The Google OS is awesome and the voice controls is insanely accurate. I paired my purchase with a sony sound bar and its wired through ARC. Everything gets controlled by the TV remote, and the Sound bar menu actually shows up on the TV screen which is a nice change from the tiny LCD displays on the soundbar itself. The only issue I have is that every now and then the TV stops sending audio to the soundbar through ARC and I have to power cycle it to get it working again. This seems like a software bug, which in theory should be fixable through an update. Overall this TV is amazing and I would highly recommend it.

Great TV
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.TV has a beautiful picture and was easy to set up. Only recommendation would be to purchase a sound bar/sound system with it. The stock speakers aren't all that great.
