    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
