Q: What is the width of the 49 inch Sony? What is the height? Will it fit in my space which is 46 inches?

A: Hi solveig, Here are the dimensions of this TV. TV only: 43 1/2 x 25 1/2 x 2 7/8(1/2) inch (1102 x 646 x 70 (12.5) mm). TV with stand: 43 1/2 x 27 3/8 x 10 inch (1102 x 694 x 252 mm). Stand Width: 22 5/8 inch (573 mm). Thanks, >Joffrey

Q: What's the main difference between this (720 series) and the 800 series? They both appear to be 4k HDR sets.

A: Hi Mark, The 800E model is already an Android TV, has 4 HDMI ports and features the TRILUMINOS display for better color enhancement. You may check the links below for more information: https://docs.sony.com/release//SPECS/KD49X720E_mksp.pdf https://docs.sony.com/release//specs/XBR49X800E_mksp.pdf ~Ralph

Q: I was told by the salesman at one of your Best Buy locations that I would be able to download more applications to the tv. I have a roku and I wanted to get sling onto this tv and use the roku on a different tv in our house. How can I get sling on my TV?

A: Hi MattyB, unfortunately, this is not an Android TV. Installing application is not possible. You can only use the pre-installed applications. For more information about this unit, please visit the link below. Thanks! ^Ron https://docs.sony.com/release//SPECS/KD49X720E_mksp.pdf

Q: Will this TV be compatible with my existing devices?I have Xfinity cable, Xbox 360, Sony Blu-ray DVD player and Apple TV.

A: I have apple tv 4th gen. The tv works with it. However, it does not work as well as the Samsung I used to have. The Samsung gave me much more control, or management, of turning on and off the tv and inputs from the apple tv remote. The Sony makes you select the inputs every time I switch from it to my air antenna. The Samsung would auto default back to air antenna when i shut off the apple tv. Also, on the Samsung I could set whether the tv turned off with my apple tv or not. The Sony tv turns off automatically when I turn off the apple tv which is annoying and there is no way to prevent it I have researched extensively. If I had it to do over I would go with a Samsung because it seems to give you so more control over micromanagement of various aspects. I am still under grace period to return the Sony and might still do it.

Q: I purchased a Sony Bravia 55' TV (model X720E) from Best Buy. Question: How do I activate the 4K upscaling feature? Not much info in the manual.

A: Hi BAB, here's the step to activate the 4K upscaling. 1. On the supplied remote control, press the HOME button. 2. Select Settings. 3. Select Preferences. 4. Select Setup. 5. Select AV Setup. 6. Select HDMI signal format. 7. Select Enhanced. Regards, -Erin

Q: Any way of retaining the TV speaker sound while a cable is plugged into the headphone port. I want to wall mount the TV, the headphone port will be out of reach. I hope I can plug in a 3.5 mm extension cable so that the port is still accessible.

A: Hi Burt, Yes, it does have a headphone speaker link function that allows you to listen to the TV speakers and connected headphones at the same time. You may refer to page 30 of this link for more information (headphone speaker link): https://docs.sony.com/release//Manual_4686051111.pdf ~Ralph

Q: Will it last more than 3 years? My Sharp 50 inch lasted exactly 3 years and I was told that’s typical for a tv. Which I found odd.

A: Hi Andi, yes, it will last for more than 3 years. As long as you follow the recommended operating environment for the TV, it will last for a very long time. You may refer to page 5 of this link for detailed information: https://docs.sony.com/release//Manual_4686051111.pdf Thanks, -Mark
