Great service from Sony store first of all. TV is by far the best I have owned (toshiba, Samsung, vizio,Sony). I have read several reviews concerning the set doesn't work and not playing nice with the fmp x-1 but so far no issues, wife and I plugged both in and everything worked out of the box. So many tvs are all following the minimal bezel ultra thin train it's nice to see Sony bucking the trend and incorporating the side speakers (sound is amazing). The extra width provided by the large side bezels gives the TV a sense of grandeur compared to the minimalist design which to me always made the TV seem lacking.

Once you've seen the world in 4K Ultra High Definition, there's no looking back.With Sony 4K Ultra HD, breathtaking detail is depicted with pinpoint accuracy for the most natural images. You also get the widest color spectrum we've ever offered and 65 watts of powerful sound from Built-In Speakers. It's quite simply the most immersive, highest resolution TV experience possible.
Four times clearer than HD:
See more on TV than ever before with over 8 million individual pixels (3,840 x 2,160) compared to about 2 million (1,920 x 1,080) on your current HDTV. Advanced picture processing also ensures that every single pixel displays imageswith superb brightness and authentic detail. It's the highest resolution picture Sony has ever produced on a TV.
Everything enhanced:
Suddenly, everything looks better. Now even old movies and smartphone video clips are enhanced with stunning results. The new 4K X-Reality PRO chip enhances HD (or lower resolution) images by analyzing and refining images with beautifully natural detail and astounding color. The latest Reality Creation database and Super Resolution processing breathes new life into everything you see with phenomenal 4K (3,840 x 2,160) resolution.
More brilliant color than ever before:
Spoil yourself with the widest color spectrum we've ever offered on a television. Unique to Sony, TRILUMINOS Display technology creates incredibly true, natural shades of colors just the way you want them. Har d-to-reproduce reds, aqua blues and emerald greens are displayed beautifully, so landscapes andseascapes look more vivid. Faces look better, too, with natural skin tones.

Sound innovation:
These aren't the TV speakers you're used to. Unique to Sony TVs, Magnetic Fluid Speaker technology allows a thinner, more efficient loudspeaker that offers faithful reproduction of high-fidelity sound. The front-facing speaker system directs sound right at you with 65 watts of power. S-Force® Front Surround 3D simulates 5.1 surround sound, with an enlarged sweet spot that everyone in the room can enjoy.

The dynamic LED difference:
It's all about perfecting a natural look. Dynamic Edge LED backlighting with local dimming delivers pitch-black night scenes and illuminates bright scenes that pop with vibrant color. Rather than illuminating the entire screen, contrast is boosted in just the right areas for a more realistic picture.
Lifelike motion:
Watch the sprinter break off the blocks and race smoothly as the camera follows him from left to right. Even quick motion seen in action movies appears amazingly realistic as Motionflow XR 960 technology, which takes motion claritybeyond refresh rates, smoothing out the picture where the camera can't for clearer, more natural movement.
