Upgraded to Sony Smart TV
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is our first smart TV, as my spouse is not tech savvy and wasn't interested in getting a smart TV. After several years of coaxing, I finally sold him on the benefits of a smart TV and this week we purchased this Sony Bravia. It was installed today by a fantastic Geek Squad employee and we are extremely happy with our purchase. Having a smaller home, we purchased the 55" model with a Sony Bluetooth-enabled soundbar and it's perfect for us. The images are crisp, clear and bright, and the sound quality without the soundbar was very good. Because my spouse watches mostly sports and action movies, we opted to add the soundbar for the added depth it gives to the audio, which he loves. Though we're not big streamers, tonight we test-streamed content from a few of the streaming apps we occasionally use via our cable box, and the images and sound were great. As the Geek Squad rep was going through our setup today, I saw that this TV has many features that should meet the needs of those who are frequent users of streaming services/apps. We've been Sony TV buyers for a long time and this purchase exceeded our expectations. Additionally, I wish there was a way to recognize the great service our Geek Squad rep provided today. He was so polite, professional and helpful in setting up our TV and soundbar and in explaining our new TV's features to us. He should be commended for the great job he does!

if you need hearing assisted devices
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.sony is a great tv but it does not have a headphone jack. if you use RF headphones to help you hear tv, this one will not work. i have had another sony for 12 years and it is wonderful. the old sets had headphone jacks.

Posted .HI felicia,
We are delighted that you've had such a wonderful 12-year experience with your previous Sony TV, and we understand your disappointment regarding the lack of a 3.5mm headphone jack on the new 55" Class BRAVIA 3 model, as many newer TVs utilize digital-only outputs. While it does not feature an analog jack for your older RF headphones, we want to assure you that you can still connect them by using the TV's Digital Audio Output (Optical) port and connecting that to a readily available Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC); this adapter will convert the signal back to an analog format that your RF headphone transmitter can plug into. Alternatively, the new TV supports Bluetooth 5.3, allowing direct connection to modern Bluetooth hearing devices and headphones.
Thanks for choosing Sony.
Best regards, Eliab

Excellent TV in this price range
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had a Sony Bravia 1 for several years. This time I tried an LG QLED and was disappointed in viewing angles. So I returned it for this Bravia 3. This is a much improved device over the original. Picture can be adjusted to taste and viewing angles are excellent. Also the TV connects flawlessly to my Denon Surround sound amp using HDMI eARC connection and control. This is a huge improvement over the early model because the eARC use to be unreliable on Bravia 1. This TV has a bright detailed ultra HD picture. Very good buy for the price.

Posted .Hello KeithS, thank you for sharing your thorough experience with us!
We're excited to learn that the Bravia 3 has left such a positive impression on you, especially following your previous experiences.
It's fantastic to hear that you're noticing a remarkable enhancement in picture quality, along with excellent viewing angles and the ability to customize the image to suit your preferences. We're also thrilled that the HDMI eARC connection to your Denon Surround Sound amplifier is performing seamlessly and reliably.
We're delighted that you're enjoying the vibrant, detailed Ultra HD picture, and we agree that it's an outstanding value for the price.
Thanks for choosing Sony!
Sincerely,

Posted .HI MeganC,
We are pleased to hear that you are enjoying the clear picture and light uniformity of your 55-inch BRAVIA 3! You’ve highlighted one of the key benefits of this model’s Direct LED backlighting; by placing the LEDs directly behind the screen rather than just along the edges, it provides more consistent brightness across the entire panel for a much more immersive viewing experience. When combined with the 4K HDR Processor X1 and Triluminos Pro technology, it really brings out those vibrant, lifelike colors and sharp details you've noticed.
Thanks for choosing Sony.
Best regards, Eliab

Great TV
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.In my opinion this is an excellent TV. I am totally pro Sony. They have beautiful color and last. The sound isn’t the best. In my opinion, none of the new tv’s have great sound. I solved that issue by adding a Bluetooth sound bar and surround speakers. The setup was easy and the remote works nicely.

Great Image
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.New TV with a great picture, color and overall presentation. Sony is great with it comes to visual and color. The only thing was getting used to numberless tv remote. Yes, everything is access via stream, but to have ease with switching channel- we can pick our favorites and switch with only our favs and not see all the other channels.
