Bad TV

Posted .Hi JoyceB, Thank you for your feedback on the BRAVIA 8. We apologize for the issue you're experiencing with the color on people's faces picking up the background color and reflecting on their faces.To address this issue, we recommend the following steps:
Adjust Picture Settings: Go to the TV's picture settings and try adjusting the color balance, brightness, and contrast. Sometimes, tweaking these settings can help reduce the color reflection issue.
Check for Firmware Updates: Ensure that your TV's firmware is up to date. Manufacturers often release updates that can fix bugs and improve performance.
Optimize Viewing Environment: Make sure the TV is not placed in a location with excessive light or reflective surfaces, as this can affect the picture quality.
If you’re interested you can schedule a one-on-one consultation with our experts here: https://electronics.sony.com/one-on-one-consultation?utm_campaign=ooclink_rsiyt_20201026&utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=social_organic&utm_content=rsi&cid=sco-na-3351

Regretting the purchase
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I cannot recommend this television or any Sony tv. The tv constantly randomly reboots on its own. I’ve troubleshooted every available item to no avail. The latest firmware update issued on 12/16 was supposed to fix the random restarting issue, but it doesn’t. What was supposed to be a tv upgrade has been a downgrade. Is it too much to ask for a tv to display a picture? Watching your favorite show or sporting event and it suddenly shuts down, while you have the pleasure of waiting a few minutes for it to restart. The worst part of it is Sony does not stand behind their product. After speaking with Sony customer service, for a 2 month old product still under warranty, their answer is to hope for a future software update that MAY fix the issue. They refuse to send a technician out to diagnose the issue, which could be a failed power supply. I’m not clear what Sony actually warranties on their televisions, since this one won’t display a picture constantly, but they are not willing to make it right. Buyer beware.

Refurbished junk
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had purchased the Bravia 8 after upgrading from the Bravia 3 that I wasn't happy with the picture quality. After I got it set up it did turn on due to a small crack in the screen that can only be seen in bright light. I returned the 3 to best buy and exchanged it for the 8. Needless to say when I opened the box there was absolutely no plastic or cover to protect the screen. The top of the tv frame is all scratched up. Did not want to make another trip to best buy. So in short I paid $1600 for a factory refurbished tv. I will never purchase anything ever again from best buy.
