Excellent television
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased both a 77 inch and 65 inch models of this TV for two separate rooms. I'm glad I did. The picture is beautiful and I love the Google TV interface. Best Buy did an excellent job installing the televisions and receivers I purchased.

Amazing tv
|Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.May not be as bright as its competition, but with Sonys processing power, my gosh, stunning image quality and amazing sound quality with an awesome OS, I wish it could brighter in certain scenes but I know that it could mean sacrificing image quality.

Sound problem
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had a Bravia for almost 5years and was very pleased with it.Thought it was time to upgrade to new model and that was a mistake. The picture is great but sound is not so good.Spent days on menue and spoke to sony with no help to correct it. It gets worse when taping a show or streaming.Bought sound bar , it helped a little.

Main board failed in 7 months - part out of stock
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased in December 2025. The picture is very good, sound with built in speakers is OK, but good with Sony Bravia sound bar. The TV has turned off in the middle of watching perhaps a dozen times and won't come back on unless I unpug it, wait a while, then plug it back in per Sony's instructions That seems to reboot it and it works again for a while. Then in july 2025, 7 months after purchase the red light at the bottom of the tv started blinking - 3 blinks, a pause then 3 more blinks. It wouldn't turn on. I unplugged it to reboot it, but it still wouldn't come on. A google search said it was a hardware issue. Contacted Best Buy who wouldn't help because tv was still under warranty. Contacted Sony who diagnosed it as a main board failure. The ordered a new board and gave me the name of a local company who would repair it when the part came in. Then I got an email from Sony saying the part was on back order. A week after it quit working Sony says they don't know when the part will arrive - blamed it on the tariffs interupting supply chain. I have a Best Buy Total Protection Plan but BB won't help while Sony is trying to resolve. So my $1700 tv quit working after 6 months and we have been without tv for a week.

Best TV I’ve ever purchase’s
|Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I used to think all TVs were pretty much the same—until I upgraded to a Sony. The difference was night and day. The advanced processor brings every scene to life with astonishing clarity, turning fast‑paced, action‑packed blockbusters into silky‑smooth thrill rides and making old shows look fresh and vibrant again. I love watching my movies and shows on here!

Great TV
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Other reviews don't do this Bravia 8 justice. I absolutely love this tv. I had a former Bravia from 10 ish years ago that still works that I have and loved. I upgraded and bought a LG TV OLED 6 yrs back. We needed a bigger Tv for the new home living room and took the plunge on the Bravia 8. So much better than the LG in terms of use. My only complaint which was the same issue with the LG was dark movies/shows are hard to see on the picture during certain times of the day. Probably could play with the settings which I plan on doing soon.

Sony Bravia TV is the state of the art
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is one of the best televisions I have ever owned. The images are razor sharp and the colors are quite vivid. Close ups show the pores on people's faces as if they are in the room with you. Can't ask for more.
