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.

Delivery by BestBuy was excellent and on time. This TV replaces an LG that had a great picture but was difficult to navigate using cable tv. This is much easier. But still a SMART TV.

Sony Baloney
Verified purchase Verified purchase: This reviewer bought the product.Sky Tyler July 18, 2024Review source: AmazonI was initially excited to receive my Sony Bravia 3 43 inch TV but excitement turned into major disappointment. The picture out of the box needed to be corrected and I could never get a decent picture. Color was askew when changing channels. There are no user presets which is frustrating because when the power goes out here in bad weather, the TV resets itself to factory settings. Yeah, having to go through the trouble of fixing the picture again is not worth the money unpaid for this TV.
Oh, and HDR? So dark that I have to fiddle with the picture settings again and then again when going back to HD! Uh uh, sorry Sony, but this has to be the worst TV for the money. Looks like I’ll have to return this item and pray I have better luck with a lesser known brand.
