Very Good TV
TV is excellent. Easy to set up and looks great with streaming services and off air broadcast. Only down side is I thought this had a built in ATSC 3.0 tuner for NextGen TV like my other 50" Sony.

SONY BRAVIA
I installed and set up this tv without any assistance and can honestly say it is hands down the easiest set up I have ever experienced. Thank Sony for getting this right.

Terrible Product
I purchased this TV from BestBuy about 2 months ago. This TV turns itself on all by itself, even with all the settings that allows it to turn itself on are disabled. I have exhausted all resources from Sony trouble shooting, and all videos and forums I can find on the internet. Apparently, Sony doesn’t even know what causes the problem. Turns itself on randomly at 3 AM and at least once at around 1AM. Kind of odd that it turns itself on at #am every night. I have resorted to turning the volume off at night so at least it makes no noise when it does this.I will never buy another Sony product.

Nice picture, poor support and documentation
I bought this to replace an older Sony and indeed this has a great picture and great App/streaming capability. But the negatives are too strong. There is inadequate documentation of how to operate the settings online or anywhere else. Many of the settings end up greyed out with no explanation. The remote is completely inadequate. No ff or rev as an example. Forget about universal remotes because this one is paired and won't teach. Tech support has few answers to questions(new TV?) and would not even give me IR codes for the Settings function. It does integrate well with other Sony devices but there you cannot even listen to headphones and speakers at the same time. I would not recommend purchasing this line of TV

Exellent television
I really like the picture on this TV, its sharp, clear picture defines an excellent experience of watching TV. It is an entry level TV in the Sony lineup and worth the money that I paid for it. It took a bit of time to get the picture the way that I wanted, which means one may have to change some of the settings to fit your personal taste in viewing.

Sony TV
IJust traded my old version of Sony TV for a new Smart Sony TV. Had some help with the set-up but, so far, I'm enjoying the picture perfect color and sound.

Your customer service is awful.
Never buy a SONY product. You get no help. Heaven help if you need assistance. Don't bother. Just buy another brand.
