Worst tv we have EVER OWNED in 53 Years on earth!!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This tv is a horrendous, coronary inducing piece of JUNK! We paid $1000 18 months ago and it has been nothing but an infuriating piece of garbage that freezes up constantly!! We have ALL of the updates. We kept track of the terrible performance: 1. Freezes up at least 5 times every single day 2. When it freezes up, you have no option but to hard shutdown by unplugging the stupid piece of crap. Yup you read that right. Remote has ZERO RESPONSIVENESS so you are stuck. So get up, walk over, dig around behind the tv console to find the plug, unplug, plug back in, go back to couch, wait…..wait….wait some more…..wait…did I mention wait? Wait some more because GOOGLE TV SUCKS AND IS EXTREMELY SLOW AND CLUNKY. 3. IF you are lucky and the tv restarted correctly (about 50% of the time) try again to watch tv. 4. It will probably not be fixed so repeat steps 1-3! Isn’t this fun?? 5. If the tv doesn’t freeze up altogether it will go black with sound, or have no sound but have a picture. 6. Repeat steps 1-3!, yippeee!! 7. After about 2 months the search function from the main screen simply stopped working and hasn’t worked since. It just spins for eternity. So you can’t even find a movie without going to every streaming channel and searching there. Not a single day has gone by since we bought this where this didn’t happen. As time goes on it just gets worse and worse. Almost seems to me like planned obsolescence. The interface is so slow and clunky and unresponsive it will literally drive you mad. I have come so close to throwing the remote right through the screen and just tossing the tv outside. Or putting my foot through it! Folks, I have owned a lot of TVs in my life. None of them…NONE, have ever given me this much infuriating grief. This tv was new in July 2024. So the bottom line here is, and something you very badly need to heed, is that SONY SUCKS NOW. I should have listened to my coworker who stopped buying Sony’s altogether a couple years ago. My last tv before this was also a Sony, it wasn’t as bad but it was bad. Their performance is so sluggish you will click something on the interface and wait like 10 seconds for it to register! Save yourself a lot of wasted money and time and severe aggravation and buy a different brand. If you buy it, you were warned so don’t complain. Our internet is high speed cable and consistently tests at 275-300 mbps. No other tv in the house does this. We have 4. And the others were cheaper but are far better. In this day and age there is no excuse for such an expensive piece of junk for such an old technology. SONY doesn’t even know how to make a working tv anymore LOL NEVER AGAIN.

Posted .Hi Justin,
We are deeply sorry to hear about the persistent freezing and unresponsiveness you've experienced with your BRAVIA 3. To address these severe performance issues, we recommend performing a "Forced Factory Reset" using the physical power button on the TV itself (unplug the TV, hold the power button while plugging it back in until the LED turns white or green) to bypass the frozen interface. Additionally, please ensure all background apps are closed and consider enabling "Apps Only Mode" in the Google TV settings to significantly improve system speed and responsiveness. If these steps do not resolve the search spinning and black screen issues, please reach out to our dedicated support team with your serial number so we can investigate a potential hardware repair under your warranty: https://us.esupport.sony.com/support/s/support-contact?language=en_US.
Thanks for choosing Sony.
Best regards,
Eliab
