SONY needs to wake up before there is a CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT. The issue with these TV's is well known to them. No argument about servicing mine BUT have been waiting OVER a month for the SPRCIAL ORDER PART!! COME ON.. Over $2,000 and they cant make it right with their customers??? NOT GOOD..

The in-TV picture is superb after calibration, however anything being fed in through HDMI has never looked great due to color issues. I state this after hours of work on calibration that worked in-TV but not through HDMI. Having two remotes for this TV that work very different from each other is a problem. There should be one integrated remote. I do appreciate ARC and HDMI control. Those work well. I also like that Android is being used however the processor is slow.

Great features and excellent picture quality. I have been using this TV for more than 3 years and the picture quality hasn't dropped even a little.

Exchanged this TV from an LG, pictures don't compare. Sony is the way to go.

We bought the tv a little over a month ago. We like to use YouTubeTV. Not sure why the tv doesn't respond well with it. We have spoken with Sony and the guy at Nebraska Furniture Mart. Neither suggestion has helped.

I bought this when it come out, never had an issue with it. The only problem I have is, how slow Sony is at updating the firmware.

Great TV. Unfortunately it took three warranty replacements to get to this point.

I bought this a couple of years ago and I’m really happy with it. That said, my next TV will be a Samsung again. I prefer the brighter colors. They say Sony produces more “real” color, I prefer the vivid colors of Samsung.

I purchased this TV brand new for a large amount of money and within weeks it was already messing up. 6 months in, it started randomly going black screen with volume. It stopped for a while and now is on black screen 95% of the time no matter how many times I reset and which method I reset. I will never buy Sony again.

Both this TV in October 2015. always loved Sony because I have several Sony products. I must honestly say, it has not lived up to its promise. The TV seems to have a mind of its own. It shuts off in the middle of an event and restarts.In addition, it does not immediately respond to commands, even after buying a replacement remote. I find it very sloggist. I really will like to replace but I guess my warranty might be up by now.

We don't usually impulse buy, but this sold us the minute we saw it. Phenomenal depth of color, fabulous 3D depth and great up-scaling of our Bluray CDs. Love that it syncs with our Sony BDP so only one remote is necessary. Also, the remote is user friendly and the apps are great.

I just installed the XBR65X850C. i looked online and can't find the screen refresh rate. It says Motionflow 960 but that is meaningless. Other than that it looks OK. Reds are a little too blooming but if you turn the color down a bit it's ok.

Great TV with great picture. My only complaint is the 3D requires active 3D glasses instead of the passive glasses like used at the movie theater. Otherwise awesome TV.

I purchased this TV for my Dad who has been watching a Sony 55" DLP for many many years. It was finally time to upgrade and what an upgrade it is. The picture, brightness, and colors are outstanding. The touchpad remote makes it possible to search for your favorite youtube videos by speaking into the remote. The technology is amazing and very accurate. The bezel is very thin as is the TV's depth. We threw it up on a wall bracket in minutes. We always fought with glare on the DLP. Glare is a thing of the past now even in a room that's full of windows and doors. Baseball games come to life on this beast. Helmets shine, white uniforms are crisp and the green grass pops out at you. I have a Sony 40" W-Series at home that I will probably move to the bedroom to make room for one of these in my living room. It's definitely a show-stopper!

The set up that I am running is Wall Mounted TV, Denon AVR-X4100W receiver, 50' Cable running in wall between the two, using the HDMI ARC plug on the TV and Denon. I made my decision on this TV after so may "mixed" reviews. The previous TV that I had bit the dust, It was a 7 year old 52" Samsung HD LCD, thought it should have lasted longer. The picture on this thing is amassing, I have a Dish Network satellite, and the up scale looks pretty good, what is amazing is to watch a YouTube 4K demo video, that really make this TV shine. I have not had any of the operating issues others have mentioned about the Android System, I am connected to the internet via cable (Comcast) standard connection. The set up was straight forward and just followed the on screen directions, it went thru a firmware update and did take about 60 minuets, The HDMI ARC connection works flawless, and it was plug and play. I have not toyed to much with the picture settings as this looked pretty good to me out of the box, I do appreciate other reviewers giving some of the settings that they are using and may try them. I had considered a Samsung but with the boat anchor i just took off my wall, i was not so sure about their reliability. So far I am a happy customer.

Clear picture with vivid colors and excellent black levels. 4k upconversion is very good ,even better when playing bluray content. When 4K blurays finally arrive on the market I would think this Sony will then be able to display the best picture available!

Picture is awesome. Netflix 4K looks better than thru the 4K media player I needed for my old Sony 4K set. However, I upgraded because this website said Amazon 4K streaming was available and it is also Directv 4K ready. Neither is true. I hope these are added soon.

Excellent picture. Had help setting it up because I purchased a new blue Ray player and 4K receiver at the same time.

SO FAR EXCELLENT PIC. BOUGHT FROM SONY ONLINE STORE BEFORE PRICE WENT BACK UP. WEEK LATER THEY LOWERED IT ANOTHER $100. DO AGREE WITH OTHERS THEY COULD HAVE AT LEAST PACKED 1 PAIR OF GLASSES SO YOU KNOW THEY WERE COMPATIBLE.

Awsome 4K TV
By Manjinder
This TV has very vibrant colors and awesome, brilliant picture . 1080i picture direct form outdoor antenna looks much better than 1080P TV. The Blu-ray picture almost looks like 4K. Start-up time is fast. Lots of apps now because of Android. I have not checked the 3D as no glasses came with the TV. Conclusion: Worth of its cost, in picture quality Sony is the best.

Google Cast: Plays nice with your other devices
BRAVIA is Google Cast ready so you can easily cast your favorite entertainment like YouTube from your personal device on to the stunning BRAVIA screen. You can cast from Android, iOS or your laptop.
Say what you want to see with voice search
Spend less time browsing and more time watching. Voice search on Android TV lets you search for content across different services without ever having to pick up the remote. You can also get recommendations; asking for "romantic comedies" for example, brings up a list of suitable options.
Simply intuitive: the One-Flick Remote
Interacting with your TV has never been more intuitive. Flick comfortably through what's on screen with the touchpad - you don't even need to point the remote at the TV screen. Forget fiddly text input: all you need to do is talk to your One-Flick Remote. It works with NFC, so you can even share photos wirelessly from your smartphone on the TV screen - all at a single touch.
Show smartphone photos in 4K with MHL
Enjoy your smartphone media and apps on this TV with Mobile High-Definition Link (MHL). Play videos and photos in 4K, use your apps on the big screen or listen to MP3 music through the TV speakers. A single cable connects to BRAVIA while charging your phone's battery.
Bass reflex speaker for bigger, better bass
Hear more from a compact speaker box, with intense, focused sound. The bass reflex speaker produces clear, rich sounds from crisp highs to extended lows. The isolated box design ensures highly efficient sound reproduction, so that every detail is heard clearly.
DSEE restores detail to your digital music
Low-resolution Internet video, catch-up TV and other heavily compressed audio files don't always sound so great. A large amount of information gets thrown away when digital audio is compressed. With Digital Sound Enhancement Engine (DSEE) technology, lost frequency components (especially high frequencies) are restored for natural sound with a more spacious feel.
Cinematic S-Force Front Surround
Enjoy an immersive soundstage that pulls you into the heart of the action. S-Force Front Surround mimics the way the brain correlates sound sources to create proper volume, time lag and sound wave spectrum - using only left and right speaker channels. By naturally emulating three-dimensional sound fields, you'll enjoy rich, high-fidelity audio across a wider listening area.
Clear Phase for smooth, balanced frequencies
BRAVIA uses a powerful computer model to analyze and compensate for inaccuracies in speaker response. It does this by "sampling" the speaker frequency with higher precision. This information is fed back to cancel out any peaks or dips in the speaker's natural response - resulting in pure, natural audio with smooth, even reproduction of all frequencies.
One-touch mirroring to see your smartphone screen on BRAVIA
NFC (Near Field Communication) technology removes the need for wired connections and complex setup sequences. Simply touch your NFC-enabled xperia smartphone or tablet to the One-Flick Remote and wirelessly mirror the screen of your mobile device on the large, beautiful BRAVIA screen. Multiply the joy with family and friends by watching videos together, browsing together or selecting the next vacation destination on a map. No NFC? No problem. You can also pair the devices manually.
Make the moment yours with Photo Share
Share photos through BRAVIA and let your friends save their favorites. Wireless transfers are quick and stable over your network. Photos can be shared at their original size, with your Android (Android 2.3 and above) or iOS (iOS5 and above) smartphones. There's no Internet connection and no apps needed.
Enjoy optimized graphics with Picture Mode: Game
Created in collaboration with experts at Sony Computer Entertainment Worldwide Studios, Sony's dedicated Picture Mode: Game optimizes picture quality for a greater gaming experience. Colors appear more natural and every scene is more detailed, so you will enjoy graphics just as the developers originally intended.
