    I have been very happy with my purchase. It is super easy to set up and has a great picture. The fact that you can use the legs two ways really helps because if it had to go at the ends it wouldn't fit on my stand. The sound is incredible compared to the Vizio it is replacing. The acoustic calibration really helps with this because I first thought it was going to be similar but now it sounds great and I don't need a sound bar.

    Finally I was able to purchase a Sony TV! For years we've had a 39" Sanyo 720p for our main TV and now a 55" 950 J and it's 2 different worlds on clarity, contrast and color! X1 reality pro processor is amazing! Upscaling picture quality, streaming movies and shows without buffering. Voice control is really a nice feature along with the remote able to control other devices plugged in your HDMI ports. Amazing product with a very high recommendation for anybody to purchase! Sony is the best!

    Picture is absolutely flawless. You don't really appreciate just how good this TV is until you watch something in 4K. Being an Android TV makes it even better because you can download more apps from the play store. Streaming setup is very easy and works very well. Only knocks on this TV is the large size of the remote, and the price. But, Sony always has been a bit more than their competition on all of their products. Sony TV's are the only ones that "Consumer Reports" rates as above average in reliability.

    I was intending to buy the new x90j, but the price was out of my budget. I had been looking at the 950h and then compared the specs between them. It has most of the same features with the biggest difference being the OS. The 950h (new model designation is x95h) has Android tv where the x90j has Google tv. The image is brite and clear. The interface is like an android phone so pretty easy to get around. I'm happy that best buy had it in stock.

    I am very pleased with the Sony TV. The android operating system is great and the TV has amazing picture and very intuitive interface. My only comment is regarding the installation instructions - there were vague and unclear. I would expect Sony to invest a bit more effort in this minor detail as they did for the whole other aspects of this TV. I would definitely recommend this TV to my friends and family and consider other TV from Sony in the future.

    I have purchased many Sony products over the years. I find the picture quality on the Sony TVs to be consistently excellent. It is always sharp and clear. This TV is no exception. I am no "tech savvy" so I appreciate that the remote is user friendly. I have the TV mounted on a wall in a bedroom, which is carpeted and find the quality of the sound to be totally fine. I would highly recommend this TV.
