Good for darker rooms an very low lighting,
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you’re watching tv during the day in a fairly lit area, then you’ll likely find the screen too dark. This tv provides better coloring and focus on an item, person, etc…in the forefront on the scene, but much of the background will be too dark. At night time in low lighting, it’s terrific.

Bravia
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great product. As with all flat screen TVs, a separate sound system is needed. As with most products these days, a manual does not come with the product. The online instructions are good, but I miss the actual book.

I would recommend this to a friendExtremely good but only in brightly lit scenes
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a fabulous TV with a fatal flaw. It quite simply just doesn't get bright enough in dark HDR scenes. 80% of the time it looks marvelous until you get a very dark scene where you literally can see almost nothing. It's because the brightness rating on this TV is only about 750 nits which just isn't enough. I returned this to get an LG C4 (exact same price) which is got about 20% more brightness. It makes a massive difference. So this TV is an almost wonderful TV, the C4 is a wonderful TV. Also the speakers built into the TV screen, which many people have been impressed by, sounded absolutely awful to me.

Movie night
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Wish I had more time to enjoy the TV. It was purchased for movie nights. I did find it a bit difficult to program, but with a little time I have gotten the basics setup including a BluRay. I am sure there is so much more offered that it will be fun learning even more.

Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I feel so far it has been a great tv,we had previously been fans of the Samsung Tv,which lasted us 11 yrs and still going,upgraded to a larger Tv. The sound on the Samsung has always been an issue. The Sony delivers overall great performance so far.

TV won't Turn on
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Well, i bought TV in November 2023... here we are in January 2025. So a little over 1 year of owning the TV and it won't power on. The TV has not even been moved. It worked last night, now this morning it won't power on. Just lovely. Waste of money. Buy a Samsung. My last TV was a Samsung and it lasted 10 years.
