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.

    This is an excellent lcd tv. It’s not as bright as my mini led Sony, but the color is excellent, and the Google platform is the best.

    Sony Bravia is one of the best LED TVs on the market in my opinion. This is the 3rd Bravia that I have, I have a 55″ and a 75″ as well, and I just love the picture. My 75″, I have had for 5 years and just recently my Mom spent the weekend with us and commented on how beautiful the picture was. Yes, I am aware that OLED is all the rage, but, this 85″ LED is 1/3rd the price and I don’t think the OLED picture is 3 times better. It is a pretty heavy TV so if you are planning on mounting it on the wall, its about 100lbs so you might need some help there, but I guarantee you won’t be disappointed in the picture.

    This TV gives me a sharp picture and beautiful color, but the real plus was the service I received. The sales person who helped me knew the products and was able to explain the pros and cons of each. All my questions were answered with patience. The delivery and installation was flawless—and tidy. The technicians did not leave until I had a clear understanding re: how the TV worked. They were patient and explained everything to my satisfaction. I highly recommend Best Buy for their outstanding customer service.

    Can’t go wrong with top tier Sony Bravia! Replaced my old one with a new one. Plus Black Friday sale doesn’t hurt.
