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.

    Pixalates terribly. If there is a dark area on the show or movie you’re watching, it pixalates the area and until it changes, it stays pixalated. The TV doesn’t keep up well with HD movies at all. Constantly blurs. I’ve owned several Sony TVs, have to say after this one, will never buy another. I couldn’t return it because BB told me I had to have the original box, et cetera. Who keeps the box of an 85″ TV? Now I’m stuck with a TV I hate to watch.

    The picture is much clearer than our old 1080P tv. The audio and internal speakers are also much clearer. We no longer have to use an external speaker to clearly hear the dialogue.

    So far, I like this tv a lot. I appreciated the free setup service that Amazon offered with the tv. My one negative feedback is about the digital setup to get it connected to wifi and my google account. That was a bit too much effort. Otherwise, it’s a nice tv.
