Had it for several months now and love every thing about it except the remote and some of the navigation. Have it hooked up to my home theater system and did have some issues with the Dolby vision activated

Great, very bright picture! I like everything except it is hard to figure out if you are watching 4K HDR because the video resolution doesnt work while watching the Android Smart TV which is Netflix, Amazon Prime, YouTube, Etc. Also, NO APPLE TV CAPABILITY?? C'Mon SONY, an update is needed ASAP so I can watch Apple TV!!

Had almost a year. Excellent TV. Really shines with 4K DVD’s. Direct TV does not do it justice. Is it worth 4X other 75” TV’s. I’m not sure. If it last 10+ years maybe it was. Sony makes an excellent TV.

I've had my Z9D for a few months and after this recent oreo update I have more access to all the latest 4k enhanced movies and games I could ever want. The onboard voice google voice control is a new idea for me and it's beey fun to use, even my kids are getting a kick outta it. I was a skeptic at first and after much research I pulled the plug and am way more enamored with what this TV really offers in terms of visual clarity, both for gaming and movies, and the smart features that will ensure future proofing your purchase. Good luck! I recommend this fully!

I bought this Bravia 75" Z9D two months ago and finally got is installed by the pros at Best Buy and now have it connected to my audio Dolby Surround sound. The picture is truly amazing! But the other surprise is the integrated controls that make viewing so easy. We stream everything we watch on our smart Sony TV and never use cable channels. our Sony Bravia makes this so easy we just love it!

I am happy I decide to get the TV, I wanted the 65 in but I waited to long and it was only available on 75 in. I look great on screen and all around. To bad there is no more 3D out there.

The Z9F is definitely the best tv I have ever owned. The 4k upscaling is so good that I replay older shows/movies and it seems I am watching them for the first time because of the fantastic color and detail. Sony rearranged their home screen and the apps and features are very good. The remote lets me control my cable box which is very convenient. I can't wait to see what Sony has in store with the 8K sets they are releasing.

I have had this for 5 maybe 6 weeks I have not had it professionally calibrated yet but, what I can say is out of the box with a few adjustments it is the best looking picture I have ever had on a Television. All i need now is for it to last a long time

I bought this about three weeks ago. I went back to Sony because I think the quality is the best. I had a Samsung curve, which broke down two and a half years after I got it. And they are asking me for thousands of dollars to get a new panel. My first Sony Bravia tv, is 10 years old. And I have never had any problems with it. I hope this one will last me that long too.

I bought this to replace my Samsung 9500 UHD and I was blown away with the superior video and audio. This was coupled with my Marantz receiver and Martin Logan speaker system. I could not be happier and I wish I would have originally purchased a Sony UHD 4K!

Even after 2 years Samsung still hasn't dethroned the Z9D as the best overall large TV. While the Q9FN has as good of picture quality, it lacks two important features. Dolby Vision and 3D support. Even if it was missing just one of them it would be enough to sway me to the Z9D. With both of them it's a no-brainer. Hopefully with the next model Sony delivers another knockout and keeps 3D support.

Purchased online two days before thanksgiving online and I received the TV on Dec . 4th, 2017. We purchased the Sony after reading a lot of information online and inquiring at local store about the capabilities of this Sony XBR75Z9D. We found it to be one of the most capable and visually enhanced for our needs the clarity and colors are fantastic and of course all the wifi capability it has to stream movies. This was a treat for us since we've owned a Sony Bravia XBR 65inch since 2003 and it still works but the colors are no longer there along with it being too dark but the TV still works and is in excellent condition and that is the other reason we purchased this 75inch Sony its a brand that has worked for us far beyond what most people have their TVs for.

Gorgeous picture compromised by bright green blown pixel. Terrible quality control for the price. Buy something else.

This product has a great picture but it also has significant problems. It turns on by itself at random times and nothing I have been able to do will stop it. A second problem is that it does not interface well with certain receivers and disc players. When I have all three components on, everything works well BUT if i want to listen to a cd only (therefore not needing the tv to be on since it s only music) and am using only the disc player and the receiver, the tv MUST remain on. If I attempt to turn it off the disc player will show "dropouts" in sound. This sounds like a bit of an odd problem but my dealer says it is a result of the tv port remaining "hot" and searching for a signal. This hdmi "renegotiation" apparently causes the sound dropout. I do not have the technical expertise to know if this is actually the case but I do experience the dropouts so you can judge for yourself.

Unless you never intend to watch any HD cable, network or sports ever again. Their vaunted "upscaling" renders a blurry, fuzzy picture on a par with the old Standard Definition from ancient times. Sony Service says that's the way it is. Don't waste the serious money required to purchase this supposed best of their best 75" model!

I did lots of research before deciding what to buy - back and forth between various options and manufacturers. Finally settled on the Z9D & WOW is all I can say. This set is the very best I have ever seen & far exceeded my high expectations.

After going through numerous models by Sony and Samsung, I landed on this Z9D and cannot be more satisfied. With the best picture out of the box with minimal tweaking needed. If you don't want to pay 20k for an OLED at 75" than this tv will give you the same quality for more than half the price.

Of course the 4K movies look fabulous but it turns out they are even more amazing when watching them at home then when we saw a demo in a store. To top that we were surprised and blow away by how Sony's upscaling makes ALL source material (DVD, HD BluRay, 3D and TV shows) look sooo much better. Colors are fantastic, clarity is unbelievable, motion is wonderful. Not to mention that everyday we find some other Sony adjustment (lots of options if you want that flexibility) you can choose to select that can make things better and/or different depending on what you're watching, what your tastes are or if you're just curious. Yes, it is a costly purchase but it's well WORTH IT !!

Everything looks and works great! Reasons for only 4 stars: 1. Rare 3D ghosts. 2: Menu navigation is somewhat "busy" (convoluted).

Backlight Master Drive - Calibrated Beam LED Design
