      Hi Bone,

      We are really happy to hear that the BRAVIA 5 is proving to be such an excellent tool for your day trading setup as well as your home entertainment. With the precision of our XR Backlight Master Drive™ controlling the Mini LED zones, it is fantastic to know you are getting the sharp clarity needed for detailed charts and candlesticks. Furthermore, the 120Hz native refresh rate ensures that data movements and fast-paced movie scenes alike remain incredibly smooth and responsive.

      Thank you for making Sony part of your viewing experience!

    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!

    Love the TV so far with a few comments to reduce the rating a bit. Setting up all the features was a little more complicated than I thought it would be, maybe it's just me. The thing that stumped me for a bit was the setup to run both internal and external speakers at the same time. Once I got the settings right it works just fine. Another comment is that there is some glare on the screen from external light, I had to turn the tv a little bit to reduce the glare. Overall, I'm happy with this purchase and the TV after I got it set up the way I wanted it.

      We're happy you love your 55" BRAVIA 5 Mini LED TV, but apologize for the complicated initial setup, especially getting the internal and external speakers to play simultaneously. We also acknowledge your note on the screen glare from external light, which you successfully managed by adjusting the TV's position. We're glad you got it set up the way you wanted!

    Our old Sony Bravia TV gave us a great picture and great viewing for 14 years! When it finally came time to replace it, we bought another Bravia. This 55 inch TV has a very sharp, beautiful picture and we are very pleased with it. Setup went smoothly and our old Sony soundbar works fine with this TV. BestBuy delivered it free and we are enjoying it!

    I have a home full of Sony Bravia TV’s (7) and they’re great. So while visiting my son in Florida, I realized his guest bedroom needed a TV, so I bought him one too … to go along with his main room 75” Sony Bravia and his master suite 65” Sony Bravia. He loves it and so do his guests.

    Wanted a 4K TV but had to choose between OLED and Mini LED. Chose Sony Mini LED. Watching Sports is where this 4K mini LED is perfect for watching sports. Great definition and color saturation. The colors look real where with OLED the colors are "punched up" and are not natural.
