Completely happy
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I read a lot of reviews before purchasing my TV and after comparing final details and prices with my BB sales person bought the 55" Sony. I purchased Sony soundbar, PlayStation new router and universal remote and the Geek Squad came out and totally mounted on my wall, including wiring in the wall so no ugly cords hanging, programmed and networked everything and spent time teaching me how to use it all. I'm completely happy with the picture and the whole system! Simple enough for a nontechnical person like me, who still wants great sound and versatility between TV, games, DVR, DVDs and music. Now I can watch the ID channel in every creepy detail Special thanks to my BB sales team and GEEKS :)

Nice Picture, Clean Look
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sony has made a TV with great picture and a clean bezel. Blu-ray movies look great. Haven't tried 4k yet. Very pleased with our purchase. Integrates well with Sony Blu-Ray player and with your wi-fi connection. Stream movies from your computer easily. Chromecast is integrated into this TV. Channel Guide is more comprehensive than your cable providers guide. It includes Cast/Crew, Ratings and Related Content for each show. There are a few cons. -The external power supply is hard to wall mount and keep hidden. It also comes with a very short power cable. -The IR remote requires external "eyeball" type sensors to be mounted somewhere. Also not easy to hide while still giving a clean appearance. The (2) sensors come with sticky backing to attach somewhere, and have fallen off numerous times. -The tv channel guide integrated within the remote doesn't page up/page down and does not automatically go to the channel you are currently on. Besides those things, if you are looking for a TV with great picture and reasonable price this is a good option.

Excellent IPS Panel HDTV (XBR55X850D)
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have been wanting to replace my existing 2007 47" 1080p Vizio for some time now and have been researching a replacement that met my current requirements. Primary goal being, a family room HDTV that had excellent side viewing angles due to our unique room situation shared with an overlooking kitchen area. This requires an IPS panel that will have lower contrast numbers but will maintain color accuracy viewing from different angles. This Sony had one of the highest IPS panel contrast ratings. Used "rtings.com" as the primary information site for comparing numerous makes and models. And if I had a home theater room, then I would have selected a model that had a VA panel with much higher contrast ratios but extremely limited side viewing angles. Regardless, it would have been a Sony. The price point for this HDTV was more than some and less than others but it was the reviews from this site, and many others, that changed my mind from an LG or Samsung, to the Sony. Couldn't be happier! Didn't think I would use the online internet surfing feature, but found I do enjoy surfing with the MIC feature. The one downside to this HDTV, is the low quality speakers. But I knew that going before buying and will supplement with a high end sound bar, sound base, or 5.2 receiver (still researching those). Caught this on sale and saved another $100 and used the BB free deliver service. Will add that the BB delivery team of 2 plus a supervisor were prompt, professional, and keep me updated on the delivery schedule. Got to love that!

Nice TV for the size
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Picture quality =great. Crisp and clear on regular tv as well as 4K. Good sound..had to add a center channel to hear well. Great color. Love the voice search feature. Easy to use once you take a moment to look at the remote. It makes sense which is good.

Great TV when it works properly
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is an amazing tv, the picture quality is beautiful. However within the first week of purchase we noticed the remote control stopped working. I called Sony's customer service line and after 30 minutes on the phone troubleshooting we had the problem resolved. So I thought. The tv worked for a couple of days and then randomly out of the blue it let out an ear piercing screech (that's the best way I can describe the sound) the screen turned a scratchy green color for approximately 20 seconds and then it died. It attempted to reboot on its own but would not fully load unless we unplugged the power source and rebooted that way. After this happened I called customer service back only to be told they would have to call me back. That call never came. So the holidays came and went and we were busy so I figured I would call after. The tv kept doing this same quit/restart at least a dozen times. I finally called again, and after over an hour this time explaining my issue they transferred me to the warranty dept. I was required to submit pictures of the tv, which I did, but it's hard to see the issue when all the picture showed was a dead tv. They denied my claim. So I waited.... I left my phone open on the camera app and sat for two hours waiting until it finally did it again. This time I was ready. I took a video of the tv "dying" as I call it. This finally was enough to satisfy Sony to send me a replacement, which I'm satisfied with so long as this new one works properly. We shall see.

Always get a Sony
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For a little more money, the Sony picture is better than Samsung or Visio. Blacks are blacker like the old plasma TVs. Clarity is exceptional. The set up was terrific. My only complaint: the TV stand is impossible to put together. Just don't try and call the 800 number. The instructions are drawings only. There is no narrative. "Step one- do this." Gee, the only reason to leave that off is because there are so many languages to cover. Directions for TV stand get a failing grade. TV is an Aplus.

Q: QuestionDoes this model have any light bleed?Last year's Sony XBR line suffered from light bleed depending on the particular model. Has that been resolved in this model?
Asked by ArrJay.
- A:Answer To answer your question, It does not have any light bleed. For those interested in what the light bleed is, read on. The light bleed issue was a defect caused on last year's 900c model. Because of the the thin bezel, excess light would show on very dark images, giving a very bright spot on the edge of a set. This issue was fixed by Sony before the release of the "D" model. Many associate seeing bright light on the screen edge during night screens as light bleed, but in fact every TV (that's edge lit) will have this to varying degrees. Turning down the backlight or brightness would fix this. Only full array sets and OLEDs are immune to this. To clarify, It's only light bleed if there is a bright area (or strip) on the edge(s) of your set, no matter what's on the screen and what brightness you have the TV on. Hope that helps.

Q: Questionbest 4ktv for under $1500 the sony 850D or samsung ks8000 good with hdr and sports and gaming for xbox one s that has Hdr10
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer From what I understand, the Samsung has slightly lower input lag, but to be honest, I think Sony makes a far superior television. I find the color reproduction to be far easier on the eyes (Samsung gives me a headache at times) and the android tv operating system is far superior to Samsung's Tizen based one in my opinion. One thing I will say though... Samsung does have the better remote.

Q: Questiondoes the xbr 850d model have directv built in capability
Asked by eyelean.
- A:Answer It does have RVU capabilities. Like my Samsung TV, the Sony 55X850D is able to connect to the Directv Genie system, BUT, the ethernet network connection must be wired. The wireless connection will not suffice. I didn't know that the 55X850D had this functionality when I purchased the TV, but it is a bonus for me. The Directv genie "gateway" showed up in the list of inputs. If your TV has a wired network connection, you will be able to walk through the process of connecting to the Genie gateway receiver.

Q: QuestionDoes this tv have glare. issuses?
Asked by grif.
- A:Answer Hey grif, I use this TV with lights on in my room and I haven't noticed any glare. The only way you can see for yourself is if you go in to the store and use your phone's flashlight then compare that to other TVs around it.
