    I got this to replace a Sony 75" that went out. This one has a much better picture which got even better when I had it calibrated. The size is great and the operation of it is very easy. I have it mounted on the wall and is connected to a 9.2 sound system and it's fantastic. I recommend this to anyone wanting to upgrade their TV.

    Great 4K TV, amazing picture. Bright colors and distinct darks. Also has several options for streaming content wirelessly. This is my first Sony TV and so far I have been very happy with it. Also got it on sale at a great price at Best Buy. Best Buy did a great job installing the TV in our theater room.

    Product was good, but your installation man broke the 43” LG removing from box. When returned your return people who checked, confirmed this. I should have had the replacement tv delivered, installed and the damaged one picked up free of charge. Instead, I brought damaged one back and picked up and hung replacement myself! The 85” was installed correctly and is great!

    I am very pleased with my Sony BR-85-X950! I bought two of them for my new house, one for the living room and another in the media room. I am pleased with the resolution, brightness, color depth, user interface and speed. I think that about covers it.

    Massive screen with a phenomenal picture. If you are looking for a massive screen with close to an OLED picture this is your TV. Nothing better for the money. Only down fall is no VRR, but I am not a gamer, so really doesnt effect me.
