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.

GOOGLE DATA COLLECTION DEVICE
Verified purchase Verified purchase: This reviewer bought the product.Placeholder September 27, 2024Review source: AmazonI decided to go with a Sony because my last Samsung lasted less than 3 years. It was nearly twice as much $ as a similar size Samsung. Set up was pretty easy, picture good, sound no better worse than other TVs. The remote is TERRIBLE, and the TV won’t pair up with my Bose system remotes. The guide (if you could see it) is USELESS, it seldom populates the listings of what’s on. What good is that? If you page through the channels to quickly, it gets stuck on the last channel’s audio so you need to restart the TV to clear it. During set up you have to sign several authorizations to use all the functions. The agreements are 100s of pages long so you can’t read them all. So you basically give GOOGLE free access to listen to / watch what goes on in your household. If I knew about the google stuff I would never have bought this tv.

Not a happy SONY customer
Verified purchase Verified purchase: This reviewer bought the product. Incentivized Incentivized review: The reviewer received a benefit for sharing feedback.NotHappy September 27, 2024Review source: BestbuyNot happy with this purchase. Remote control is very small with the buttons so close together that 90% of the time you make the wrong choice in the menu. The screen is chockfull of apps and information that you don’t need and which is overwhelming. When you try to turn off the set 2 choices appear. One says Re-start and the other one says Close and it takes several tries before you can actually turn off the set.

Not what I expected from Sony.
Verified purchase Verified purchase: This reviewer bought the product. Incentivized Incentivized review: The reviewer received a benefit for sharing feedback.AnthonyD September 27, 2024Review source: BestbuyGreat picture, easy set up. But the Wi-Fi keeps dropping. The only way to fix it is to unplug the TV and plug it back in. I have bought several smart TVs. I have not had this issue with any other one. I also have a Sony TV that I purchased several years ago and no issues. There must be something wrong with this TV or it’s a design issue. There’s no reason for it to keep, losing the Internet.
