An excellent TV if you value Sony quality
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is an excellent TV. Sure, "on paper" it loses out to cheaper, more spec-heavy TVs from the Chinese brands (TCL, Hisense), but this TV is excellent in all the ways that makes a Sony TV great, quality. The colors on the Bravia 3 (like all Bravias) are accurate out of the box. No weird hues, or oversaturation. This TV also has Sony's XR processor which makes lower quality content look phenomenal in 4K. Go ahead and try streaming an old season of Survivor from 2010, which originally aired at 1080i, and you'll be able to see details like facial hair on people's faces. It's honestly like magic. Build quality is great too; it feels hefty and sturdy, not light, hollow and plasticky. TV review sites will give the Bravia 3 mediocre reviews because it has a direct lit panel and no local dimming zones, but honestly, if you value build quality and picture quality, this is your TV. If you wants specs for cheap, go TCL or Hisense, but if you value the Sony quality, this is a great option for the price.

Posted .Thank you for the incredibly detailed review, Alexander!
We are thrilled to hear that you are enjoying the Bravia 3 and that you appreciate the "Sony magic" that goes into our processing. It is wonderful to know that the XR Processor is making such a visible difference for you—there is nothing quite like seeing those fine details in classic content brought to life in 4K!
We also appreciate you highlighting our commitment to out-of-the-box color accuracy and sturdy build quality. While we know there are many options on the market, we strive to provide a premium, reliable experience that goes beyond just the spec sheet. Your breakdown of why the K-65S30 is a great value for those who prioritize picture quality and craftsmanship is incredibly valuable to the community.
Thank you for choosing Sony and for sharing your expertise!

Gus, Sony Social Media Team

Solid LED TV
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bravia 3 has a narrow niche - basic picture quality on a high-quality build that will last a long time - if that is exactly what you’re looking for, this is your best option. Once you upgrade from LED it is hard to go back to it. Lack of local dimming made for blocky blacks w/ poor contrast, but that is to be expected. Not a good choice for gaming or dark rooms. Know what you are buying - significantly better picture quality is available in higher-end Bravia models. I ended up upgrading to a Bravia 5 75” mini LED, which better matched my wants - cost twice as much, but the upgrade was worth it. In the age of $300 65” TV’s, the appliances don’t need to last very long to get your money’s worth. A Sony TV that lasts 10+ years less useful than it was a decade ago. If you don’t have $1600 to buy a Bravia 5, consider a cheaper brand w/ high picture quality rather than the $800 Bravia 3. My personal opinion, Google interface is better than the other stock options. Quick, minimal ads, simple, intuitive, smooth. Four stars as it lags in value and picture quality, commensurate w/ Sony pricing, and LED technology.

Posted .Hi SethF,
We are really happy to hear that you are enjoying the smooth and intuitive experience provided by the Google TV interface! While we understand your observations regarding the differences between LED and Mini LED technology, we take pride in the high-quality build and longevity that Sony is known for. We are glad you were able to find the perfect match for your home with the BRAVIA 5 (Mini LED), and we appreciate your detailed feedback on the reliability of our products.
Thank you for making Sony part of your daily viewing.
Regards,
Dominick
