Pros & Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional Picture Quality: Users consistently praise the sharp 4K resolution, vibrant yet natural colors, and the ability of the X1 processor to upscale older, lower-resolution content with impressive clarity.
  • Strong Value for Money: Many reviewers highlight that this model provides the premium build quality and performance expected from the brand at a much more affordable price than high-end OLED models.
  • Intuitive Google TV Interface: The smart TV platform is frequently described as snappy and easy to navigate, offering seamless integration with popular streaming apps and effective voice control via Google Assistant.

Cons

  • Frequent Software Freezing: A recurring issue among users is the TV's tendency to freeze or become unresponsive, often requiring the unit to be physically unplugged and restarted to restore functionality.
  • Poor Remote Control Design: The included remote is widely criticized for being too small, lacking a numeric keypad for direct channel entry, and having no backlighting for visibility in dark rooms.
  • Unreliable Wi-Fi Connectivity: Multiple customers reported that the TV frequently drops its wireless connection or fails to find networks entirely, necessitating frequent network resets or hard reboots.

Customer Fit

  • Primary audience: People using this model as the main living room TV praise the large screen sizes (65–85"), theater-like feel, strong color, and clear dialogue for sports, movies, and everyday shows from across the room.
  • Secondary audience: Many buyers explicitly installed the 50–65" sizes in bedrooms and liked that it’s easy to mount, sounds good without a soundbar, and is quick to get streaming.
  • Ideal scenarios: Reviewers say PS5 gameplay “looks great” and input lag feels low for casual gaming, but competitive players wanting 120Hz/VRR or simultaneous 4K+HDR may be disappointed.

  2. Excellent Picture Quality and Size

    It took a while but my husband finally got this installed in his mancave. He kept changing his mind on which wall to put it of course. The picture quality is excellent and the sound is crisp. Whenever I retire my soundbar and speakers from my gameroom, he’ll get to take them over so the compatibility with other Sony devices and most major TV brands is a huge bonus (my LG soundboard is not so widely compatibile). He’s very happy with the size, quality, and ease of use so I’ve had no complaints from him.

    All around it’s a good purchase.

  4. The Absolute WORST

    The absolute WORST!
    1. I bought it so that I could use my Sonos surround sound with it. I PREFER Samsung but they don’t pair with Sonos so Sony it was
    2. It was GREAT until 3-weeks ago (oddly AFTER the return period ended).
    I now have to do the following JUST to watch tv
    -unplug the tv
    -RESTART my WiFi router
    -plug tv back in
    -HOPE and if that fails, repeat steps 1-3 which is counterproductive
    Giving it 1-star because I can’t give negative stars
