I would recommend this to a friendGood going Best Buy, and Sony, too
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I replaced my 20+ yr Sony Bravia with same Bravia series from Sony. I reasoned that their would be similalarieties. I am SO pleased great picture quality, easy operation although lots of updates. It was a very easy transition. The price was right and since I'm not a gamer this was a great choice. I have not purchased anything from a store except groceries for such a longtime I was hesitant to buy from a "BigBox" store, but had to, since I could not take the 80lb TV off the wall mount let alone hang a 50lb one. So had to deal with a store. What a great experience, Best Buy was sooooo easy, ordered TV online, setup delivery and install online easy pizzie!!!! The delivery and install was smooth as silk, the installers were polite, conversant and effiencent. The install was no more than 20 minutes, no mess, nothing but smooth operation. I was so impressed. Then there was a $50 price drop!!! Oh no, what do I do???? Not to worry, I called Best Buy, and, low and behold, no problem, I got an immediate refund on my credit card!!!! And then, I had an issue with a link for AppleTV for a free 2month perk, and voila, pomblem solved. This whole experience has been so positive, Best Buy has an excellent customer service staff, they are a real credit to their store, company, It also says alot about the management of Best Buy. I am so very impressed with my Best Buy experience. It is SO wonderful to work with people and not the internet!!!!!!

Poor quality - disappointing purchase
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.TV does not display non-HD in viewable format, way to blurry, no one tells you when purchasing a $1200. item- remote does not have numbers and the buttons are too small

Posted .Hi DebbieM, Thanks for sharing your experience with us. We're sad to hear that you are not happy with the picture quality of the TV.
When watching a movie (720x480) or another video source with SD quality on an HDTV (1920x1080), upscaling the video to something resembling 1920x1080 can cause the quality to look poor. The same condition exists when watching HD or lower content on a 4K TV.
Kindly check the link below. There are information that can help better explain the situation you're having and steps you can take to improve your viewing experience.

Hope this helps. If you need further assistance with your device, you may reach us at [email protected] with the following details :

Nice TV, poor service from BestBuy
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The TV itself is great, but the service from BestBuy was terrible. I was sold things that I didn't need, and not sold things that I needed. The customer phone line and chat lines were worthless and provided contradictory information regarding sound bars, HDMI cables, stands, etc. It's extremely frustrating that you can't call in to the store where you made your purchase, you actually have to go to the store or else rely on the idiots in chat and customer "help" line. On top of it all, the first TV arrived with a huge crack on the screen, at least I got a new TV without too much hassle, although the reschedule took 2 weeks. And, don't believe the prices that BestBuy posts regarding savings, they are rather bogus.

Great TV installation did not go as planned
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The TV is great and installation on the wall went well. I expected more help installing to WiFi and spectrum. Perhaps a misunderstanding on my part but I would have thought that was part of the installation

Do not buy Sony Bravia 65 inch TV
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We had the 45in ? Bravia Sony for years with no problem. We purchased the 65 in Sony Bravia and it's been replaced twice already Within a couple of months. Sony came out but could not replace the motherboard. We had to get another 65 inch. There was so much difficulty in communication that we have had to make numerous Communications with Sony. We did not purchase Best Buy insurance. I personally do not recommend Best Buy insurance. The 3rd TV that Sony brought to us has had to be rebooted about five times! I would definitely not recommend this product. Not a fault of Best Buy. They're great.

Posted .Hello SusieQ,
Thanks for bringing this out to our attention.
We're truly sorry to hear about the ongoing issues you've experienced with your 65-inch X90L. It's definitely not the experience we want for our customers–especially after having such a positive history with your previous Sony TV!
We understand how frustrating it must be to have multiple replacements and encounter persistent problems like the need to constantly reboot. This is certainly not typical performance for our products.
To prevent your TV from randomly rebooting, ensure that it has the latest software update downloaded and installed correctly. Additionally, disconnect any external devices, such as cable boxes, gaming consoles, or streaming devices like Fire Stick or Roku. After doing this, test your TV to see if the rebooting issue persists without any external connections.
If you're still facing any issues, please reach out to us at [email protected] for personalized assistance. Kindly include you name, Best Buy username, TV’s model number, issue and telephone number. We’re here to help!
Thanks for giving Sony the opportunity to change your experience.
Sincerely,
Jenn.

Posted .Hi MichaelL,
We regret to hear that you are not satisfied with the TV. Unfortunately, the X90L does not have Picture-in-Picture (PIP), Picture & Picture (P&P), or Twin Picture (split screen) capability. These features aren't included with this TV model as well as 2021 or later Google TV/Android TV models, and X75H series. However, similar functionality may be available through a third-party service or channel for sports, videos, etc. Check with your cable or satellite TV provider for options.

While we are not sure what device/streaming application you are watching, you may try adjusting the picture settings of the TV according to your preferences and see if it improves your overall viewing experience. For instructions, please refer to the following links:

TV Quite after 78 days
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Quit working after 60 some days.....Best Buy did not step up and replace it sine it was over 60 days. I have Best Buy Total Tech Warranty and they only allow up to 60 days for an exchange. Sad since I bought brand new dishwasher, stove, refrigerator, washer, drawer, 2 TV's a new Pioneer receiver etc. A ton of money all bought at Best Buy only to find out I have to go through Sony now. I will NEVER buy anything again from Best Buy.
