My parents still had a 60 inch projector screen television! Finally bought this as a gift to them, and i am blown away with how easy the remote was to program/operate. Also the selection on the remote for Netflix is perfect for my parents to access streaming content. Watching HD movies really makes the bright colors glow and dark colors dark with the High Dynamic Range. It really pulls you into the beauty of the scenes and forget what movie you were watching! TV is THIN! But built very solid!

Nice Mid Range 4K TV

I purchased this TV with some hesitance as we have always purchased and have been satisfied with Samsung TV's. We purchased a 60" entry level 4K Samsung TV on 11/24/16 and were extremely happy with it until this past July when it was taken out by lightning. For some reason, Samsung has discontinued making the 60" so we decided to look at the 65" mid range arena (with HDR). Obviously we looked at the Samsung entry at this level and loved the picture but were disappointed it was only available in grey. Next up was the Sony, aesthetically it met our approval and the picture was crisp and the colors were vibrant. So we decided to take a chance and made the purchase. After unpacking and mounting the TV to the wall and running through the set up, a software update was available so I opted for the sooner than later and went ahead with it. Once the download and installation was complete, the TV restarted and we were off to the races (I thought). After about 10 minutes of run time, the picture went out and that was it, (see pics below) on what happened next!! With that being said and the TV being only a few hours removed from the box, off of the wall and back in the box it went and we were off to Best Buy to try again. The TV was exchanged with no problems, we opted (nervously) for the same make and model. New unit back on the wall, set up complete and software update successfully downloaded and installed. It's been 3 weeks and I am happy to report no problems with this unit. We are pleased with the crisp, bright, vibrant picture and do notice a difference watching 4K movies with the HDR......

I had been watching this TV since it had debuted as a possibility for our soon to be finished rec room. I love the picture quality, sleek design, and ease of operation with this set. Hooked to my Onkyo surround system, I have a theater like experience every time I watch a Blue Ray or HD Program. I am completely satisfied with this product and

We have five tv’s in the house and our new Sony 4K HDR ULTRA HD TV knocks the socks off the other four! The picture is bright and clear and the colors are strikingly vivid. It is better than being there, The tv practically set itself up - it was so easy. Now we feel as if we are living in the action of the show because we are just sucked in by the wonderful sound and picture . Run don’t walk and get one of these tv’s; you will love it!

I have had this television almost 2 months, 2 days ago I had to hardwire it to my router, the wifi started giving me problems after the last firmware update. Otherwise, the options & abilities this television has are top notch. The picture is amazing. My sales person was extremely knowledgeable & told me that Best Buy televisions have manufacturer panels in them whereas Sam's Club televisions have an after market panel, I went to Sam's Club & looked at around the same model & the picture quality was infact not as good as the one that I ended up purchasing. Overall I am very impressed & happy with my purchase.

The size of the TV is fantastic. The smart TV capabilities are very good. However, the quality of the HD picture is not as vibrant and clear as I had expected. I purchased an open box item for the first time, and the extra savings was helpful.

Everything about this TV is impressive. It was easy to unpack and install. Easy to setup and navigate. The picture quality was amazing going from 4k Tv to 4K with HDR. Its been more than 6 weeks and the picture still looks impressive. The sound quality and the smart content are also top notch.

We bought this tv in Christmas last year 2017. The tv has functioned perfectly to this day July 2018. The picture is very clear and bright. We use it with a Comcast remote and set top box and a Roku Ultra without any problems. I rarely use the Sony Android apps or Sony remote control to watch the programs. I purchased some Presonus speakers and connected it to the audio output of the tv which can now control the Presonus speaker volume. This improved the sound quality drastically. Overall, it's been a great tv.

I wanted a great tv for a great value at the time and this is what I got. Worth every dollar it was under 700$ at the time of purchase it does everything! The picture quality is excellent, but that also depends on your cable provider? Blu ray & 4K dvd look out of this work on this tv. The sound is really good. And the tv is thin as paper and light as a feather. Multiple functions and it does not lack speed works excellent.

Have only bought Sony TV’s since 1989 and have never been disappointed. This 65” 4K Sony TV is the best bedroom TV I have ever had. Bright, Crisp, Fast, Every App you could
Need or want.... Only complaint, maybe get a better remote, like better setup, better quality, something to wow me. Other than that will continue to buy Sony until I die.

Sony X850e and Bose SoundTouch 300 room makeover

Excellent video and audio!
This Sony TV is well worth more than what I paid for. This is a 2017 850e model which I bought in Sept 2018 so price was marked down. i am new at this but I was able to mount it on wall with a little help from a friend.I wanted to save the $300 installation cost to mount it plus the $400 electrician cost to install an in-wall outlet so no wires are visible. Any one with little experience like me can do this. No rewiring work necessary since the power cabling are set up just snap them together. I bought a Power Bridge In-Wall Dual Power Cable Management model Two-CK i found on Amazon. it comes with dual outlet and an opening for HDMI cabling with prewired connectors to a secondary outlet below. No drywall repair needed. The money I saved I used to buy a Bose SoundTouch 300. This combination transformed my otherwise boring exercise room.

I did not go in intending to buy this TV. I actually meant to spend half as much, but when I saw the picture clarity and learned that the cheaper tv was only simulating the higher frame rate, I was sold! Only slight negative, the volume is quite soft, I do find it needs to be on the 20s to be comfy when my Toshiba is good at 12.

I’ve had this tv for about 2 months and have not regret. I love the picture and sound quality of this tv. Although I am still trying to figure out the best calibration for the room , the room is in my basement with no natural little. The only flaw is the a little lag in the apps selection. I am not really worried about that because I plan to get a Roku Ultra for my apps instead of using the tv apps. Not giving 5 star only because of the price.

I absolutely love this TV. It was a surprise gift for my husband in our new house and he was ecstatic! Great quality and sound. I got the sound bar that goes with and it sounds like a movie theater in my house.
