A great tv
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought the 55 inch for a bedroom. Excellent sound, no soundbar needed. Perfect picture. This is my first oled tv. I wish the remote was backlit. Other tv’s in house are Samsung, which are good too. But Sony raises the bar on so many little things. Definitely worth the price.

Great TV
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This Bravia 8 TV is absolutely perfect! Picture is beautiful. I have 2 TVs in my living room so I can watch multiple sporting events at once and this replaced a 2016 model that still has a good picture, but couldn't handle some of the newer apps well (I gave that one to a neighbor). I highly recommend this new one!

Color spectrum galor.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased the 55in model a few days ago to replace the 4yr old LED in the game room. Hooked up the PS5 & fired up some Elden Ring… wow what a difference. The palet of colors & contrast is astonishing. Never thought I’d notice something like the different shades of green from plants, trees, grass, etc.. Variable refresh rate is a nice upgrade as well, everything looks & feels buttery smooth. Watched Dune Part 2 in 4K last night & it was the nicest presentation of the film I’ve ever seen.

Great TV
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A much smarter TV than I’ve had in the past so it’s taking longer to figure out how to do some things. Picture is excellent as is audio, but it took a bit to get the bass adjusted to where I think it sounds best. Too bad they don’t come with instruction books like they used to. Otherwise I’d of given it 5 stars! Very happy overall!

Sharp picture.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The picture is really sharp on this model. I wanted a 65 inch but was a few inches short for it to fit so I had to settle for the 55. It’s a nice set.

Sony Bravia 8 TV
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased a 55” Sony Bravia 8 TV and it was a great value. It was delivered to my house on time as promised. The controls took a little time to get use to but I managed. I had to call Best Buy for assistance but they couldn’t figure out the problem but scheduled a technician at no cost to me. The technician figured out the problem really quick. It was a piece of wood blocking the signal from the controller. A little slide over of the cable box and problem solved. Best Buy was super to work with and they took excellent care of this customer.
