Absolutely love it!

This is a great TV. The colors, the blacks, the vibrancy, the UHD picture (where there is content available) are fabulous. I love the 3D but wish things came out of the screen like in a movie theater (they don't on any 3D tv I know of). The 2D to 3D conversion is amazing. I use an amp and speakers so I can't comment on the built in speakers.
Love that I can surf the web and not just use the built in apps, but my gosh, there are tons of them.
I like that there is a direct to Netflix button on the remote, although I use my Directv remote the most.
I wish this TV would mirror my iPad. That is a shortcoming. Another is that I personally still prefer a printed manual, but it is easy enough to get the digital one on the TV.
I love this tv. Truly.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I really love this TV there are only a couple of things that bring it down by 1 star. First the picture is excellent and I love the passive 3d, I hope Sony continues to produce TV's with passive 3d as I feel like I'm in the theater when I watch my 3d Movies, everyone who comes over to watch movies love the 3d effect. I also have a Panasonic 4k camera and the output to this TV is amazing. Now for the negatives, when I watch TV or Movies at night there is some light bleed from the corners and when the screen is supposed to be black I can see light bleed on many parts of the screen, it's not bad enough for me to return the TV and I've seen it on other brands as well. I wish there was better local dimming on this set, maybe it can be improved with a firmware update.
The other thing I noticed in the instructions is it only supports 3d up to 2k and I know with passive 3d that 4k would be amazing, I hope that Sony starts to support 4k passive 3d, if those things were fixed I would definitely give this TV 5 stars.

Excellent Picture, design, and easy setup.
Cons:
Watch out ! To have great audio from the TV, you need to purchase seperate soundbar system or home theather.
From time to time the TV will make strange loud clicking sound from the build in relay switch.

TV was easy to install, however every picture i see of this tv shows the TV legs at the ends of the tv but mine can only be placed close to the center of the tv. Would really appreciate finding out if mine was just manufactured incorrectly or something.

I am 75-year-old female and other than hooking it up to the cable box, which the guys who brought the TV did, I set up everything else, including my blue-ray DVD player and old VCR player. Only difficulty I had was finding the audio output, which was hidden under the 'plugs' for the VCR player, to connect the sound bar.

Big changes for viewers who demand clarity and brightness. Remote control with more features than I expected. It takes a while to appreciate all the improvements and technology inside
