Open-Box Purchase
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My partner and I bought this as an open-box item in "excellent" condition. The sound/image quality is exactly what we were looking for and we were able to stay within our desired budget. Definitely recommend for those who want or need a replacement TV but don't want to spend above a certain price range.

Posted .Thank you for the review, MatthewW!
We’re so glad you're enjoying the amazing picture quality of your new BRAVIA 8. It’s also great to hear that the sound exceeded your expectations! That "better than expected" audio is thanks to our Acoustic Surface Audio+ technology, which actually vibrates the screen itself to act as the speaker. This ensures the sound comes from exactly where the action is happening.
Thank you for choosing Sony!

Sony Bravia from Best Buy, a good choice!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really like my Sony Bravia Google tv. I’m not use to having so many choices of apps. The color and sharpness of the picture is amazing. The sound isn’t bad but I’m looking to get a better sound bar. The people they sent to hook everything up were great. Very helpful. All in all a good choice.

Best Buy did good.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After two geek squad visits they determined the new Sony tv was defective and brought me a new one on the third visit. Also had them install a new Blu-ray player to replace the old vcr/dvd player, so everything should be compatible. I also installed a new antenna on the roof. So now all works fine. I appreciate that Best Buy is an honest and honorable company and kept coming out until the issues were diagnosed and fixed. Thanks Geek Squad!

Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The TV is great. The only thing I don’t care for is that the remote control has no numbers to select for TV channels. You have to scan through all the channels. To me that’s not user-friendly.

Good display for Streaming services only
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have purchased two Sony Bravia TV'S in the last few years. The older one is a X80CK and the new one is the BRAVIA 8. I feel that both TV's are excellent in different ways. The older X80CK is much better when watching regular TV and when streaming shows on many APPS. The BRAVIA 8 has less quality on watching regular over-the-air sub channel TV Shows. These are typically older shows from the 1990's and older. Newer TV shows recorded in HD formats are flawless. In addition streaming content with premium APPS is amazing to say the least. Because the display has no blooming, my family room is darker so I need more room light the keep my eyes from becoming too dry. Lastly, the older set combines Pluto into watchable live TV channels whereas the new B8 doesn't which is why I prefer the older TV for my everyday TV.

Great tv
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great tv with the best motion handling. This replaced a new samsung 90f OLED. The samsung was brighter and colors popped a bit more, but the motion judder/studder was terrible. I returned it and got this, instead. The sony is far superior. Get this.
