I love everything about this TV. If it has a con it would be the sound. I bought the Sony sound bar speaker with wireless subwoofer that's made for this TV. It's the same model as the TV. Buy together and it's truly awesome!
I bought this to replace my old TV and we are more than happy with it. Great Picture and great color. You will love it once you get it on the wall and turned on.
I bought this TV after reviewing several brands this size to replace a 40 inch 8 year old Sony Bravia. Nothing wrong with the old one. I wanted a larger format with more modern features. I’m totally satisfied with the 900F and so glad I chose it.
I'm giving this tv 3 stars because as much I love it, it hasn't been operating properly for me. The first month of use I did notice it had some lag switching from apps to inputs, I'm going on 2 months with this tv now and it doesn't do anything for me now. The screen freezes, the input selections aren't being picked up anymore, and the apps won't load. I tried to go into the TV's "settings" and nothing would display. I know it's a great tv, but unfortunately I'm getting the experience I wasn't expecting from Sony. There's a reason why I wanted to buy this specific model.
I purchased this unit a month ago as an upgrade to a perfectly functioning but somewhat dated 10 year old predecessor, and am thoroughly satisfied. Incredible picture quality, whether HD or 4k. Vivid colors, excellent brightness and solid black levels, compliments of the same chip/processor found in Sony's higher end (and therefore more expensive) models make for top notch performance. Menu system is fairly intuitive and easy enough to navigate. TV also plays nice with other components through the ARC HDMI input. Inter-component communication is almost flawless. Only weakness, at least with my unit, is a buggy Netflix app. More often than not it is excruciatingly slow to load, causing me to have to come out and re-open it repeatedly. I know it is not my internet service because Google Play and other apps work fine. Admittedly, I didn't tweak the audio, but TV speakers also sound a bit anemic. On all but the most basic program material, such as news broadcasts, game and talk shows, TV will certainly benefit from a decent, separate speaker system. Otherwise, where it counts most (picture quality), this set aces it! Sony does it again! All at a competitive holiday discount price. I now know why the set was so highly regarded by online reviewers at major publications as one of the best TV values in 2018. I concur and would readily recommend it to anyone who, though may be on a budget, still values brilliant, vibrant, razor sharp pictures comparable to those of the top shelf units.
