Completely Blown Away!
|
Posted 2 years ago.
After experiencing burn-in and returning a 55" TCL LED (6 series), I decided to take the leap and get the TV I originally wanted. I knew this was a crazy amount of money in relation to the TCL, however after experiencing them both, I can only say, wow! This TV has completely and utterly blown me out of the water! After deciding to upgrade to 4k for the first time after feeling spoiled watching my 42" Pioneer Kuro Plasma for well over 10 years, I knew it would take a lot to impress me. This Sony OLED exceeds all of my expectations, and then some, and to me, is totally worth the extra money. No ghosting, deep blacks (as deep as I had with my plasma), fantastic speakers (through the screen!) and a picture that is just mind-blowing. I've got this bad boy mounted on my wall and it looks like a work of art!

The picture is great. It was esay to set up. This is my first Sony TV ... because they typically are more expensive than models with simialr specs. During the unboxing and mounting the quality of product was very evident. Becasue I've separated from dependence on cable it was important to me to have a TV that supported 5G versus 2.4G which is what I was finding with many other brands Looking forward to many years of enjoyment

This will be my second Oled TV in my house as an addition to my LG. I like the Sony better due to it's Android TV user interface is a lot easier to use! I'm a wedding cinematographer and I love how accurate the colors and detail this TV has. I definitely recommend the buying the extended warranty from best buy as TV manufacturers don't know how to fix tvs no matter what brand you buy. All they know how to do is sell.

Posted 2 years ago.
The 55 inch OLED Sony TV has the most vivid picture and amazing sound, it makes for the perfect addition to my Family Room. It has the google assistant which my google home device will operate its sound and additional special features. Having a FIOS TV Sound Remote will give full operation to this Sony TV.

Great OLED Smart TV

Love this Sony OLED Smart TV. Excellent picture quality. The sound comes right out of the screen so no real need for a sound bar. You can still add a sound bar, but I have mine mounted above my fireplace and the sound still fills up the room. Highly recommend this TV.

Best TV Ever!

Posted 2 years ago.
I couldn't be more excited about a TV! My new Sony OLED looks great in my living room and offers the best, most colorful picture I have experienced! I am especially impressed with the full screen sound. I had planned on buying a separate sound bar, but was not necessary. TV was expensive but worth every penny!

This tv has excellent quality picture. Great blacks and bright colors. Am very happy with the sounds as well. The only downside is the motion speed. If you play video games on this tv you may get disappointed. Overall a very good tv. I would recommend it.

Amazing Picture on Sony TV
|
Posted 2 years ago.
Fabulous picture on my new Sony TV. I am very glad it's mounted above the fireplace. It's like being at the theatre. I do wish the sound was louder at a lower volume number. I don't want to purchase a sound bar.
