It is truly wonderful to know that your BRAVIA 3 arrived just in time to capture all the excitement of the Olympics! There is nothing quite like watching world-class athletes compete on a screen that brings out every detail of the action.
With our 4K HDR Processor X1™, the BRAVIA 3 is designed to deliver vibrant colors and lifelike contrast, making sports feel more immersive than ever. We are thrilled that the smooth motion and clarity of the display made your viewing experience so memorable during such a major event.
Thank you for making Sony a part of your home and your favorite sporting moments.

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.

Solid choice.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great TV, picture is clear - I like that the LED is throughout the entire screen and not just on the perimeter, makes for a better experience in general

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

Solid
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was a bit concerned as my last TV wasn't even a smart TV, but easy setup. Excellent picture, but sound seems a bit ... limited? It's like my treble has been turned up more than i like. I'm sure I could fix that with a soundbar. It's a solid TV for the price.

Great Bed Room TV
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was looking to end the holiday spending spree with a new TV for my bedroom. The Bravia 3 is an entry level tv that delivers the experience I was looking for. While it is a little more expensive than some other brands, the features and build quality leave me without any complaints. Video games work very well, whether they be PC or console, and I am able to do some late night gaming without any juttering ir slow down issues. The downsides of the TV are relatively minimal. If you wanted something larger for the living room or have the money to spend on OLED, this tv would likely not suit your needs. All in all, the TV works very well for it's purposes, and I would give it a 8/10 on a good day.

Best 4k tv 2024
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I always own Sony TVs. Once my old tv broke. I decided to give samsung a try. I like it at the beginning but the software and constant freezing or lag on its software made me change back to sony. This tv has it all. And its super easy to work your way around the software from Google. I personally think its a lot cleaner.

Setting up Youtube TV
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am having problems setting up youtube tv on this tv. I have 3 other Sony Bravia Google TV's but for some reason I can't get this one setup. My remote control stopped working and I could not turn the tv off. I finally had to unplug the tv from the outlet. As of this review it is still unplugged.

Posted .Hi RandyB, Thanks for sharing your experience. We're sorry to hear that you are having trouble with your remote controller and with the YouTubeTV app. This is definitely not the experience we wanted you to have.
Kindly check the link below. There are steps you can perform to resolve the issue with the YoutubeTV app.
As for the remote, make sure that it has fresh new batteries and there should be nothing blocking the lower part of the TV.

Hope this helps.

Loving my Bravia
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really love this tv so far. It had the best looking display (in my opinion) when I saw it in-store. I really hate how plasma screen tvs (?) lose their brightness and vibrance if you’re not standing directly in front of them. The picture is equally bright and clear from any angle. The speakers leave a lot to be desired, but I intend on getting a sound system soon.

We feel privileged to hear that the stunning display stood out to you, we put a lot of care into delivering constant brightness and clarity from every angle, so it's great to know that made a difference. We appreciate your honest feedback about the speakers, and a soundbar will definitely elevate your audio experience even further. Enjoy your new TV, and thanks for being part of the Sony family!
