Excellent TV, Could not be more happier then this.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Sony 85" Class BRAVIA 3 LED 4K UHD Smart Google TV is an entry-level model in Sony's 2024 lineup, offering a large screen size suitable for various viewing environments. It features a 60Hz refresh rate and lacks advanced gaming features such as HDMI 2.1 bandwidth, Variable Refresh Rate (VRR), and local dimming. However, it does support black frame insertion, Auto Low Latency Mode (ALLM), and Dolby Vision. RTINGS.com Picture Quality: The BRAVIA 3 delivers decent picture quality for mixed usage. Its wide viewing angle makes it suitable for group settings, as the image doesn't degrade much when viewed from the sides. However, it has poor contrast, resulting in blacks appearing gray when highlights are on screen, which may not be ideal for dark room viewing. Additionally, it lacks the HDR brightness needed for impactful highlights. RTINGS.com Performance: For TV shows and sports, the BRAVIA 3 performs well, offering very good image processing for low-resolution and low-quality content. Its wide viewing angle and decent reflection handling make it suitable for rooms with some ambient light. However, its reflection handling is only adequate with lights placed directly opposite the screen. RTINGS.com Gaming: The BRAVIA 3 is not ideal for gaming due to its lack of modern gaming features like HDMI 2.1 bandwidth, 4K at 120Hz, and VRR. It offers 4K at 60Hz with noticeable screen tearing and has a decent response time, resulting in some blur behind fast motion. While it has low input lag, it doesn't provide the optimal experience for modern gaming consoles or PCs. RTINGS.com

Sony 85 inch.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this 85 inch Sony TV. I really wanted the ninety eight inch. I have very high ceilings, so a small t v wouldn't look great.It turned out to be great.I can look from the kitchen. The picture quality is perfect.No complaints at all.I have it hooked up to my morantz receiver you can hear every detail. I am very pleased. This is my third or fourth Sony. Once you have a Sony, you will not go back to anything else.

Worth the upgrade!
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Huge upgrade from my Samsung! I didn’t plan on buying a new TV, but my 75” Samsung went out after only 3 years. Apparently this isn’t uncommon for the year mine was made. I was hesitant to spend a bit more with all the less expensive brands available now, but I’m so glad I went with the Sony Bravia. The picture is super clear, and watching movies on it combined with my Sonos system is amazing!

Overall thoughts
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sony doesn't allow for the Xfinity app to be installed so you have to do a work around. Picture quality is great. Sound quality is ok considering the speaker size.

Posted .Hi SamT!
We are thrilled to hear that you're happy with the picture quality on your BRAVIA 3 TV. The powerful processor inside really helps to bring out vibrant colors and stunning clarity, making everything you watch look incredible.
If the Xfinity app is not available for installation on your television, the most reliable solution is to use a third-party streaming device, such as a Roku, Fire TV Stick, or Chromecast, or cast content from your mobile device using Chromecast built-in or AirPlay if supported. Direct installation is not possible if your TV’s Play Store does not show the Xfinity Stream app.
Thanks for considering Sony products and for your feedback.

TV with a lot of great features
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The ease of use is amazing for this tv. A lot of other tv’s that I’ve had in the past weren’t really easy to navigate and lagged a lot on the smart tv feature. Luckily, this tv doesn’t have any of those problems. The only downside to the tv is setting up soundbars to work correctly.

Little fustrated
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought new tv, took it home from the store. Got it home and opened it up set it up and plugged in. Wouldn’t turn on, got flashing red light. Contacted customer service, was told they would ship me a new tv. The next couple of days called to verify appointment and was told they have no record of anything. Was super frustrated. Now I have an expensive paper weight. Was transferred to another agent and was told they will be shipping me a new one for exchange. Finally got the new tv. Now it works like it’s supposed to. Just wish this would have happened the first time. The last agent I talked to was super helpful and easy to work with. Handled all my concerns the way it should have been done the first time. After all that it now works well. The delivery guys were awesome and on time
