Q: Which is better on the difference from this Sony Refresh rate at 60 Hz & The Sony's refresh rate technology of (Motionflow XR960) builds upon the native 120Hz panel

A: Tbh each step up is better on paper and will cost another $200 but in reality i couldn't see any difference between 800e 900e and 930.i went with 800 and haven't regretted the purchase.

Q: How does the brightness of this Sony TV XBR55X800E compare with similar TV's of other brands such as Samsung. I like a bright picture. Thank you very much.

A: I originally purchased the Samsung 8000 series and returned it for the Sony 800E. Completely happy with my decision. This Sony is no joke! I can't believe the quality every time I turn it on.

Q: Do I have to mount this TV or does it have a stand?

A: Yes, the TV does come with a stand and is not required to be mounted.

Q: Does this particular. Model have Bluetooth?

A: Hi JerryFoley, Yes, it does. Here are the Bluetooth profile supported by this TV. Version 4.1 HID / HOGP / 3DSP / SPP. Thanks, >Joffrey

Q: My wife and I always have trouble with being able to hear the sound on almost every television we have ever had. Does the Sony 55inch smart 4k have a good clear sound system? We tried sound bars a few years ago and felt they were not very effective.

A: Hi! Yes, this TV has Sony's Clear Audio+ technology which will provide you the audio quality that you're seeking. You may refer to this link for more information on how good the audio on this TV is: https://www.sony.com/electronics/televisions/XBR-X800E-Series/specifications#features Thanks, -Mark

Q: This TV is updating every other day and changing the settings. We found the sleep timer in the beginning but the TV updated today and now we can't find it. Can we stop the update feature?

A: I would suggest going back through setup settings then say NO to automatic updates. If that doesn’t work do a factory reset. I think a good rule to follow with any technology today is no auto updates, choose when you want to do an update when offered since some we don’t need!

Q: Where is the serial number shown on the Sony X800E ?

A: Looking at the back of the TV, it is on the bottom left hand corner. I had to use a magnifying glass to read it!
