Blacked-out screen & split screen issues
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.TWO TV's - both SAME ISSUE: Bought this TV on black Friday 2024- what a deal! 13 days later, while streaming YouTubeTV app, the entire screen went black with bright lines on the left & right edge, yet the audio continued, strange. When I tried the NetFlix app, it incorrectly displayed only the left half of the screen, but twice! so strange. Luckily I was within the 14 days and returned/exchanged it for another TV, same exact model. On day 50, the replacement TV did the SAME EXACT THING! BestBuy recommended the GeekSquad assess it, claiming it was a software update incompatibility issue. On a whim- I factory reset the tv, and it functioned normally for the time being. After reading reviews (thanks everyone), I'm convinced it will occur again and I don't feel like factory resetting my TV every few weeks and having to repeatedly reprogram the apps and tune the surround sound. Luckily I am a TotalTech member, and BestBuy has been good to me. Also, I always purchase the extended warranties with items like this... just because. BestBuy has been helpful and honored all extended warranties, Thank You BestBuy and GeekSquad crew.

WORST Sony Ever, SO DISAPPOINTED
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Always wanted a Sony Bravia, well this one’s not it - or any of them. In fact, any Sony with Google TV and all the horrible apps would not cut it. (YES IT’S ALL CONFIGURED CORRECTLY as per SONY AND HAS CURRENT, UPDATED SOFTWARE) —1-- CONTANTLY REBOOTS: Over and over the system reboots, have no idea why … SCOURED SONY SUPPORT = NOTHING. —2-- TOTAL GREEN SCREEN: Will switch randomly to a totally green screen when changing from one episode or movie to another, random actions, or switching ports. So bad, even switching to any other source or even my antenna the toally green screen screen will not go away, but the audio continues. SCOURED SONY SUPPORT = MUST UNPLUG TV CONSTANTLY. —3-- NO PICTURE ZOOM: No resizing of picture out of letterbox under any circumstances. The only way to zoom is to switch your player (Roku stick, Fire, Ultra) to 1080p. SCOURED SONY SUPPORT = GET OVER IT, NOT SUPPORTED. So your 65” screen = 20” tall video, unreal. —4— FAILS TO RECOGNIZE AV UNIT(s): Even though most times it works, will not turn on AV unit (tried my late model Yamaha, Marantz, Onkyo, even Sony). It’s not found & switchs to internal speakers. It wont work ever if an external (Say Roku Ultra) is turned on first. Yes, the systems are set up through the “setup” part of the system. it’s totally random. SCOURED SONY SUPPORT = NO ANSWER. —5— POOR VIEWING ANGLE: I sort of understood this factor, but didn’t know it was sooo poor. Unless you are dead on straight in front of the screen, the picture degrades quickly. —6— NEVER THOUGHT A BRAVIA WAS SO MUCH DAILY TROUBLE!!!! Turn on, restart often, turns off/on AV unit several times, switches speakers, screen goes green …. I’d return it if I could. WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND. Just so disappointing from Sony.

Awesome! (Not)
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my 2nd Sony. My first is a 55" Android tv, that's about 5 years old. My 14 year old Samsung plasma finally died and originally, I planned to replace it with another Samsung; however, I'm not confident in the longevity or stability of their Tizen platform for smart tv. In addition, there are numerous reviews of people's tvs tipping over, because there is one support stand, placed in the middle of the tv, which is not strong enough to bare the tv's weight. So to Sony I went. Thank goodness I kept the box, because on exactly Day 14 of the 15 day return window, the picture failed. The screen has a big black bar in the middle, with the picture duplicated on each side of the bar. I was unable to complete an exchange with delivery online, as the only option was to lug this huge box and tv to the store. Fortunately, their call center was able to assist and process and exchange and pickup with delivery. I'm highly disappointed to see the quality is so poor that the unit fails within less than a month. Do better Sony.

Posted .Hello Eric,
Thank you for your purchase and we're sorry to hear that the included wall mount screws/bolts are too short. We highly recommend the Sony SU-WL855 bracket and M6 screws. You can also use a Vesa compliant wall mount with hole pitch pattern of 11 13/16 x 11 13/16 (inch).
Here are some helpful links for mounting the TV on the wall:

Heavyweight Midrange 4K LED
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Yes this, Sony Bravia 65" XR-X90L is Every bit as good as the expert reviews say and by the ones that have Professionally tested this Heavyweight midrange 4K TV but not heavy in price. I won't get into no more than what has already been stated in the comments that other owners who have already stated. This wasn't a compromised purchase for me, I was originally going to purchase the Sony 65" A80L or their 65" X93L. After 3 + months of diligent research comparing all the tradeoffs between the three models I came to the conclusion, anything more is just diminishing returns. I used, (Gene DellaSala's) article (Audioholics) of Professional recommended settings to dial in my Sony Bravia XR-X90L. Yes I do recommend this Sony model it punches above its class. BestBuy's service made my Purchase even easier with their holiday sales they're running.

Great price
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This tv has a great picture for the price. There are lots of features to choose from to get the desired picture you may want. It has plenty of HDMI inputs for all the accessories you want to add. One thing I don't like is the direct tv remote sound doesn't always pair with the tv and that I have to do it every time. Otherwise this tv is a good deal for the money.

Sony 65" Class Bravia XR X90L LED 4K UHD Smart TVx
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very pleased with the TV. Replacing a lower end Vizio 50" so not a fair comparison. The switch is like going from a Hyundai to a Lexus. Keep in mind the picture in the store will NEVER be as good as you get at home so erase that from your mind when you first hook up this (or any other TV). Remote - people complain about this - no numbers. I have not bought a Smart TV in the past five years with a remote with numbers. It functions just fine for what you need. Don't be so soft. Picture - different settings including pre-sets. "Vivid" will knock your socks off if you're not ready for it. That said, my goal with this TV was to dramatically upgrade. Mission accomplished. Colors are vivid and clear. Live sports really pop. Sound - sound is good for a TV. I tested before hooking up my soundbar. A soundbar is definitely the way to go to get more dynamic sound for sports and movies. This on sale when I bought so it was an especially great deal. But even better, it is a great value.

We’re thrilled to hear that upgrading to the XR-65X90L felt like moving into a luxury ride! It’s great to know you’re loving the vivid colors and that "pop" during live sports.
We also appreciate your practical perspective on the modern remote and your tip about adding a soundbar for that extra cinematic punch. It sounds like you've dialed in the perfect home theater setup!
