Perfect TV for my family wants and needs!

Wanted a small TV for our living room that didn't scream "TV!" and could blend into the decor; this was the perfect choice. Main uses are for morning kids cartoons and catching the news. Don't be bothered by the 720p resolution in the world of 4K TVs; at 24-inches 720p is fine and clear and you would hardly get any additional benefit if it was 1080p or 4K at this size.
The TV is lightweight and thin and the white color of the TV gives it a premium look and feel. The remote is also lightweight and has every button you need to function this TV.
The built-in smart TV function works good but a little slow. The interface is nice and has every major streaming service you need (Netflix, amazon, hulu, vudu, googleplay, and youtube). You can download additional apps from a limited selection but you cannot search for other apps outside of that limited selection to download so I was disappointed that MLB.tv was not included. You can always plug-in a separate streaming device that fits your streaming needs better.
Overall this is a great little TV. I did encounter one stuck/dead green pixel on my unit, but you could only see it if your face was right up at the screen; from our normal viewing distance it was not noticeable at all.

First off, I must say that this HDTV is an amazing value if you got it at the Black Friday price. I've had this TV for over a week now and for the most part I am happy with it.
I originally had bought the 60-inch KS8000 but it was a little too small for my basement and also had light-bleed, so I upgraded to this 65-inch KS8500 with the curved screen. While the curved screen doesn't really enhance the viewing experience all that much (to me at least), the curve combined with the excellent design of the TV makes for a nice presence in our basement family room.
It took me a week but I've finally found the right picture settings that to my eye give me the best picture quality in both a brightly lit room and an almost dark room. That said, 1080p and 4K content looks amazing and so does HDR, though I'm not completely sold yet on HDR. I guess you can't complain about images/pictures looking more "life-like" with millions of colors added in HDR over the standard 4K, but it comes at the expense of the screen being so brightly lit that my eyes get fatigued from looking at it after a while. Eh, maybe it's just old age ;-) But the 4K and HDR makes this TV future proof so I'm glad to have it.
The reason I only gave it 4-stars is because I'm experiencing a little light-bleed from the bottom of the display. This is somewhat common with edge-lit TVs, which this one is. The 60-inch KS8000 I had prior to this had the same light-bleed coming from the bottom of the display, but it was much worse. The light-bleed I'm experiencing from my 65-inch is much less; still noticeable BUT so far tolerable. I only see it when there are green, blue or gray colors at the bottom of the screen; I don't see it or notice it when there are black colors, which is surprising. So regarding that, I'm sure not all 65KS8500 owners will experience this and maybe I'm just OCD about it b/c my wife doesn't really notice it and my kids don't care. My only other knock against this TV is that the Tizen OS (Smart TV) software is a little sluggish at times. There's also delays when trying to open some apps and movies/shows, but that could be due to Internet coverage, so make sure you have a strong wi-fi connection!
Overall I would recommend this TV to anyone that wants to have excellent picture quality, good looking TV design and a future proof investment!

1 out of 5Software Bugs Beware
By Mike
Awesome picture quality but the software bugs Sony is typical for are a deal breaker. Never should have purchased this TV. It turns itself on by itself at random times and there is no software fix for this according to Sony's site. This has been an ongoing software bug for many years. Wished I would have read reviews before this purchase. Also the Smart TV functions are extremely difficult to navigate. Sony filters out specific app's so you can't download them from the Play Store. Example DIscovery Go app and others. They need a non proprietary OS like Android Pure Edition. Let the owner decide what app's they want to install.

Why is it when streaming some 4K content on Netflix like for example the show Narcos in low light scenes the picture looks kind of grainy? Is this a setting that I can adjust ? I leave it on Dynamic mode. Any suggestions ? Is the TV defective??
Yikes, take it off Dynamic mode! Standard or Movie modes are what most people use. Adjust settings from there.

Is this tv edge lit?
Yes, this TV is edge-lit. That's why it's so thin! Full array Back-lit TVs are thicker and more expensive.
