    Previously purchased next size down price wise. Not happy with that picture so I asked if I could return it. I had 30 days so I returned it and got the next size up pricewise. I had no problem. I love the new TV. However, when I went to the store to pick up the new one, it took me 30 minutes to find someone to help me there was no one there. I’m elderly and I kept going back to the desk telling them there’s no one there. Finally, somebody did appear other than that. The transaction went well.

      Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback regarding your experience, AllisonM.

      We are truly delighted to hear that after the exchange, you love your new K-55XR50 television! We are so pleased that you were able to take advantage of the 30-day return policy to get the model that delivers the picture quality you were looking for, and we appreciate that the overall transaction went well.

      However, we are very sorry to hear about the significant delay and frustration you experienced while trying to get assistance to pick up your new TV. Having to wait 30 minutes, especially after repeatedly asking for help, is unacceptable, and we apologize that the retail partner did not provide the seamless, attentive service you deserve, particularly as an elderly customer.

      Your satisfaction with the entire experience is important to us, and we appreciate you bringing this store service issue to our attention. We will pass this valuable feedback along to ensure our retail partners maintain the high level of customer care we expect.

      Thank you again for choosing Sony, and we hope you enjoy the stunning picture quality of your new TV!

    The TV is fine but the salesman was pushy about reapplying for my credit card; which I haven't used in years. I informed him several times I was paying cash. I realize salesmen have to inform customers of all available opportunities but when I said I was not interested I didn't like that he kept on..He's only doing his job but i was annoyed

    I had one of the first flat screen from Sony. It was a 48 inch Bravia, which I purchased around 2005. Well, it finally stopped working. Of course, I purchaed another Sony tv. This time I purchased a 55 inch Bravia. This tv did not disappoint. Picture is great and sound is excellent because I purchased a sound bar, also a Sony. I only buy Sony tvs because they last. That is why they are a lttle bit more expensive, because they last. I bought this tv on sale.

      Hi MariaR,

      It is incredible to hear that your original 2005 Bravia lasted two decades! That is a true testament to the longevity we strive for, and we are so glad you chose to stay in the Sony family for your upgrade. Moving from that early flat screen to the 2025 BRAVIA 5 with Mini LED technology and the XR Processor is a massive jump in contrast and detail—especially when paired with a Sony soundbar for that seamless audio integration.

      Thanks for choosing Sony.

    Why buy a Sony Bravia TV for home usage

    I recently purchased the Sony Bravia 55" 4K TV to replace an existing Sony 38" TV that recently failed. This was an in store purchase so that I could evaluate the Sony TV verses the other TV manufacturers. Based on the picture quality, pricing, compatibility with existingTV remores, and along history with Sony TV's, purchasing another Sony TV was the logical purchase. Easy to install & setup also.

    I've had Sony Tv's for as long as I can remember and they will always be the leader in picture quality in my opinion. My new Bravia 5 continues that opinion. For the best picture from external media, Roku, 4k Bluray, etc. invest in 2.1 HDMI cables. It makes a difference.
