Random Reboot
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My previous front room Sony TV worked just fine. We cut the cable and needed a smarter TV in the bedroom to support the new option we went with. The older Sony in the bedroom did not support the TV option we went with but still works fine. Therefore, we bought this one and did some rotation of TVs. During the first week it rebooted a couple times, back-to-back, while watching a show. The next day it rebooted agin without user input. I went to setting and shut off any engery saver option I could fine. It was fine for the next month. Now it is doing it again on a daily basis. Not sure what to think other than see what Best Buy and Sony will do for me. Kind of sounds like a power supply probelm. I am a Best Buy and Sony guy. Have had a Sony TV for 40+ years. Yes those were heavy tube TVs back then. I have been buying my electronics from best buy since they opened. I a hoping for a good outcome from Sony and Best Buy. Hpoing to come back and give a positive update

Perfect TV but bad experience with open box
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Perfect TV but bad experience with open box. It was an ope. Box excellent condition, should’ve had all the original pieces. I got home at night from picking up the tv and couldn’t use it until the next day because the screws for the legs were not included. Then within the first three months the tv had randomly shut off on me 3 times while watching something and would make a weird sound coming from the speakers. Definitely a defective tried to pass as an “excellent condition” open-box

Ultimately had to return mine
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The picture on the TV was awesome but I found the sound from the TV really subpar. The speakers are either way too small or underpowered that you basically will need a soundbar or stereo just to watch TV without being annoyed. It sounded way worse than my 10yr old Sony TV. The Google TV integration wasn't bad but one of the apps I use the most (Xfinity Stream) doesn't work with Google TV so using it in another room like I planned wouldnt work out unless I use my Roku. That pretty much limits the usefulness of Google TV in my case. Ultimately I wound up having to return the TV. My problems started with the audio getting out of sync, static on every source, then random reboots. Ultimately one of the reboots led to an endless boot loop and the TV just died. I contacted Sony and they were basically no help so I decided to return it especially when all of this happened within a 3 hour timeframe.

Posted .Hi Jwreed4130, Thank you for sharing your feedback about the Sony BRAVIA 8 TV. We are sorry to hear about your experience and appreciate your detailed review.
We understand that sound quality is crucial for an enjoyable viewing experience. The BRAVIA 8 is designed to deliver high-quality audio, but we recognize that individual preferences and room acoustics can affect the perception of sound. Many customers find that adding a soundbar or external speakers enhances their audio experience significantly.
We also acknowledge that some apps like Xfinity Stream may not be compatible. However, you can use the built-in Chromecast feature to cast the content from the Xfinity Stream app on your mobile device to this TV.
We apologize for the technical issues you faced, including audio sync problems, static, and reboots. These are not the experiences we want our customers to have.
Updating the firmware of the TV is one of our suggested steps to address such issues. We regret that our support team was unable to resolve your concerns promptly.
If you have any further questions or need assistance, please feel free to contact us directly. You can email us at [email protected] with the following details:
