    Expectations Lacking

    We purchased this TV based on the picture quality and recommendation we received from our sales rep in store. I do not know if our installation team were thorough enough when adjusting our picture and connecting our sound to our Sonos sound bar, we have not been pleased with the picture quality, it does not meet with the expectations we had from what we saw in store and we’ve had issues with the sound connecting with our sound bar and syncing with the sound in the broadcast, there seem to be some sound delay where we need to make adjustments frequently. For a mid-level entry at this price point, I feel like there was a lot of hype and I expected more, and not have to constantly mess with the sound syncing between the television and the sound bar..

      Hi EricK,

      Thank you for choosing and purchasing our BRAVIA 7 Mini LED QLED 4K UHD Smart Google TV. Your feedback is greatly appreciated. Please allow us to help you and turn this into a better experience.

      For picture quality, the issue is occurring most likely because of the quality of the content or connectivity. You may try to improve the image quality by adjusting the Picture mode, Sharpness, and Resolution settings. Check this link for picture settings.

      https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/televisions-projectors-lcd-tvs-android-/k-85xr70/articles/00190409

      If you're using cable box, you may request a high-definition cable or satellite set-top box from your service provider. For best picture quality, set your cable or satellite set-top box to 1080i fixed. The type of connection from your set-top box determines the quality of the picture. For best picture quality, request a set-top box with an HDMI connection. The second best choice is Component video.

      For soundbar, connections will differ depending on your TV model and Soundbar system. Please check this link for guidance.

      Hi JamesC,

      We're very sorry to hear about the issues you're experiencing with your BRAVIA 7 TV. This is certainly not the experience we want for our customers, and we appreciate you bringing this to our attention.

      Regarding the TV powering off on its own, this can sometimes be resolved with a few simple steps. We recommend checking for any pending software updates and ensuring the power cord is securely connected at both the TV and the wall outlet. You can also try a power reset by unplugging the TV for a minute, then plugging it back in.

      We also have a helpful support article that can guide you through some troubleshooting steps to resolve this issue. Please visit this link for recommended steps: https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/articles/00032613.

      If the power issue continues after following the steps in the article, please contact our support team directly. We would be happy to troubleshoot further with you to find a solution. Here's the link: https://us.esupport.sony.com/support/s/support-contact?language=en_US&category=tv

      Thanks for choosing Sony!

      Sincerely,

    Worst Rescheduling process ever experienced

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This is one of the worst service i have ever received for any purchases. TV, Soundbar, Subwoofer was delivered and could not do the installation because they did not have a TV mount. I was told by associate that if I had wrong size mount the installers will have one but i have to purchase. On the day of delivery - December 9th, i was told to reschedule after having the Mount. I called 3 to 4 times to reschedule and It is December 13th and they are still unable to reschedule. This is pathetic service, even after being Best Buy Total Member. I asked this issue to be escalated 2x, still no response from local store. I would not recommend Best Buy purchases or services to anyone who wants quality customer service.

      Hi NealP,

      Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We are truly sorry to hear that the brightness of the BRAVIA 7 has not reached the levels you were looking for, especially given your investment.

      The BRAVIA 7 is designed to be one of our brightest Mini LED displays, and often, certain default settings can limit that output. To ensure you are getting the full brilliance of the screen, we recommend checking these specific settings:

      1. Disable Power Saving: Navigate to Settings > System > Power and Energy > Power saving and set it to Off.

      2. Turn Off Light Sensor: Go to Settings > Display & Sound > Picture > Light Sensor and turn this Off to prevent the TV from automatically dimming based on your room lighting.

      For a more in-depth look at how to maximize the color vibrancy and overall luminance of your display, we have provided a complete guide here: https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/articles/00190409

      We sincerely appreciate your feedback, as it helps us continue to improve. We hope these adjustments help you achieve the premium picture quality you deserve.

      Thank you for considering Sony!

      Regards,
      Dominick Sony_US

      Hi Michael,

      Thank you for reaching out to us with your concern. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused by your Sony BRAVIA 7 TV turning on and off by itself, as well as the frequent freezes you have experienced. This is not the level of service we aim to provide, and we are committed to improving your experience.

      To better assist you, we would like to gather more information regarding the frequent freezes occurring on your TV. Are these issues present when using streaming platforms such as YouTube, Amazon Prime, Netflix, and others?

      In the meantime, you might consider performing a power reset by following the instructions provided in this link: https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/articles/00141896?utm_source.

      Regarding the issue of your TV turning on and off by itself, it’s worth noting that Sony TVs are typically shipped with energy-efficient settings to comply with Energy Star standards. These settings can sometimes lead to the behavior you are experiencing. We recommend adjusting the energy-saving settings and disabling the sleep timer and auto shut-off features. For guidance on how to perform a factory data reset, please visit this link: https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/articles/00032613?utm

      Hope this information helps!

    We were due for an update in technology , after having to replace a power supply in a Samsung that was only a few years old. The Bravia 7 compared to many others in that price range was definitely the better choice, It does not disappoint and I highly recommend, Sony leads the way in processor's and upscaling in all my research and I discovered this to be highly true.
