Sony - 55" Class A9G MASTER Series OLED 4K UHD Smart Android TV (2019)

After 11 years with a Sony Bravia from Best Buy that never failed me once, provided superior picture quality, and which didn't even look dated... I decided to upgrade to this 2019 model. FYI - I donated the old Bravia to Goodwill and they were shocked at how new it looked. I'll start with the one caveat you should be aware of: It's missing the latest hdmi 2.1 compatibility which I was aware of when I purchased it. I honestly don't think it matters. This is one of the only 55 inch tvs with a 120hz refresh rate (240 motion rate) out there and the Sony X1 processor is blazing fast which I'm confident makes the picture quality incredible. It's designed to have accurate color to the specs of the entertainment industry that puts out content and it shows (that's why it is the Masters series). On black Friday I picked it up for around $1600 plus tax. It was a steal. Beyond the smooth refresh rate which really sets it apart and the obvious superiority of OLED especially with black contrast .. the sound will stun you.... There is a reason that the provided stand doesn't lift the tv screen more than a centimeter off the tv cabinet. It does not need a sound bar at all - which most folks place below the screen. The sound on this model, however, emits from the screen itself and it is stunning. I've also used the unique option of wiring the tv into a receiver so that the tv screen sound becomes the center speaker in a 3 speaker surround system. Incredible sound. Way better than a sound bar. The Android TV integration is flawless. Super fast and allows for google assistant voice commands. "Hey Google, turn off the tv". Simple command but SO useful. And this tv is thin. I mean super thin. So far im extremely satisfied with my purchase just like I was 11 years ago when I bought my last Bravia. Now, I may have stayed loyal to the brand but I did plenty of research on other brand models. LG is an obvious option to explore considering any OLED tv starts with LG parts, even Sony. But the fit and finish of LG feels cheaper to me Were I have waited to buy the newest tech this year, LG would be a stronger consideration due to the 2.1 hdmi tech. But Sony's X1 processor pretty much puts me at ease. It's fast and produces insane picture quality. I couldn't upload a pic of the new tv (I think the file size is too large). But attached a pic of my 11 year old 40 inch Bravia which still looked and worked great. From a value perspective, I'd rather have a top of the line OLED 4k 120 refresh rate Sony Bravia with top of line processing for under $2k than pay closer to 4-5k for nearly the same quality but 2.1 hdmi compatibility in 2021. There's a reason that this exact Sony model took Digital Trend's best TV honor of 2019.

This Sony is expensive! Worth every dollar in picture, set-up SmartTV applications and all. Never had a SmartTV and this is the MACDADDY of them all. If you can't afford to buy outright then set up to make payments. First TV I have ever purchased that was worth all the hype and ratings in the magazines. Set up by BestBuy staff was on target and training was first rate. Tech took the time to make my current wall-mount work which saved me some bucks on my package and went through all the steps to help me get internet and email all set through the TV. Sound and picture are immaculate, crisp, sharp defining...... and any other adjective you can think of. This was the 40th Wedding Anniversary present my wife wanted; now how could I deny her that!!!

At this very time in the Tech World there are few Companies such as Samsung, LG, Vizio for example that are producing Fine LCD TV'S. However, The Best, finest, Sharpest Picture are the OLED sets I've seen in person. Choosing between LG & Sony, I purchased Sony. Since having a Sony set for many years just figured it's time to Step up. There is room to calibrate for the best picture per your room which I managed to get set. Am Extremely Happy Especially, when I play movies on Blu -Ray. Could have got a 65" set But 55" suited me & my budget just fine and set on bracket on my wall Perfectly! In closing, YouTube, Netflix, Look Excellent as well. With Surround Sound & 8 Speakers, Everything is Enhanced for a Wonderful Rockin Experience.

I’ve own this mater television for about seven months & it’s a joy. I purchased this television for sound & color quality which I gotten . I rate sound an 8/10. Sony Dolby audio actually minimizes the volume audio sound and gives more depth sound. As for color , I would rate 10/10. Colors are so bright & especially black at night. Though in daylight you can see shades reflections, so owning this television like all the other reviews may have it in a tight corner that is dark as far away from the light. I have not owned this television yet for a year so can’t rate it the long lasting review. Thank you Sony for the experience.

I’ve been reviewing and comparison shopping for over a year and came to the conclusion that this was the best TV experience out there. Si, when the price was reduced I finally had no excuse to keep looking. I decided on the Sony Bravia A9G Master series and was not disappointed. The TV had as great a picture at home as it did in the showroom, which was one of my concerns. Now, finally great details for football games, as well as, movies with that theatre experience. The purchasing experience was incredible as well, due to the very knowledgeable and friendly staff at Best Buy!!!

Probably the best display we have ever owned. Color, sound, and compatibility top notch. Outstanding Best Buy Black Friday discount did the final convincing.

This is an outstanding product and I am happy to have been able to buy it open box (only the box was open the rest was immaculate) at a really great price. The OLED provides you with a rich blacks that makes the image standout. Just watch the Game of Thrones seasons and you will notice what you were missing. The adnroid system is really good for the new generation of TV watching is so simple to use and to access the apps. The sound is great with this TV, BUT if you going to buy this model you should make yourself justice and at least buy a 5.1 soundbar you won't regret it.

Best tv has everything that I need. The sound is amazing. Best way to have sound is coming from the screen. Awesome look. The view is top of the line.
