Product Reviews

I bought this model a month ago & I can safely say its the best tv/picture I have ever seen. Packed full of features & a very easy setup process. It recognises any HDMI connected device & auto configs them. Maybe expensive to some but you honestly get what you pay for, a stunning experience.

I needed a replacement TV, read the reviews but was swayed by my previous the by Sony. The dilemma was whether I get the 49 or 55 inch model. I chose the 49 and I'm glad I did as it works well in my front room, the 55 would actually have been too large and I would have missed the peripheral action. Colours brilliant and sounds great, but do get a bit of bass boom very rarely as it is a bit odd. Would recommend to anyone.

Not a great tv for the money , just ok , Poor quality screen , cloudy patches on screen when no back light on , to be fair you hardly ever notice this. Brown stain in corners seen when screen is white or pale blue. Motion judder easily removed by engaging motion settings for panning left to right but lots of judder when movement from bottom to top , the only way to get rid is to put motion settings to auto but this makes films look like they are a live on stage play , it is called soap opera affect and some people hate it. Sound through blue tooth headphone when watching the likes of Netflix or Disney has to be turned up to 70 or 80 sometimes , normal tv is 15 to 20 it also breaks up sometimes This does not happen on my other TVs. The remote is Bluetooth and has thrown a few wobblers, I have had to turn tv off to reset 3 times in 2 weeks. It is very bright , so at night sometimes when watching hdr content you have to turn brightness down a lot or it hurts your eyes. There is blooming from white objects that sometimes goes into black bars , not bothering me to much , but when white letters in middle of screen blooming is very evident. LIKES. the picture can be very good apart from the judder the best I have seen the colours are amazing . Love the android operating system. The sound from speakers is very good for a thin tv. But for the price overall I am disappointed . Only slightly better than a £500 tv. COME ON SONY YOU NEED TO IMPROVE ON THE ABOVE ISSUES.

Already have the 75" model so didn't twice about buying it's larger sibling. Can't really comment about its sound as use it with a 7.1 amp.

Amazing motion processing for watching sport with no banding or judder. Highly recommended.

Good for the money sound and picture checked out a lot before hand winner in the price band I think

Replaced our Sony hx923 after long 9 trouble free years absolutely satisfied with my purchase of x950 love it

Its now two weeks , We are enjoying everything on this 85 inch TV. Its amazing to watch, Bur you need big room. Great product...Very good for retirement and my kids come to watch sports etc.

The Sony TV was purchased through Sky insurance policy. We paid extra on top ensure we got a a good product in total £879.62. Since we received the TV we have had problems with both poor picture & sound quality. I contacted Sony Customer Support on numerous occasions with evidence of these issues but the problems still remain. We have followed all the processes, updated the software etc. But apparently there are problems with this model: Sony KD-49XH9505. Very unhappy with the purchase. No satisfactory resolution found.

Excellent picture and great sound too. The software is quick and was really easy to set up. Would highly recommend

Best TV on the market for picture, quality and sound, 1st smart tv as last bravia was not and has now been relegated to the bedroom

Fantastic display, nice & responsive software, great app selection. Very good remote too, love the fact it lights up (super handy in the dark!). As with most thin TVs the sound doesn't live up to the picture quality, but that's physics for you

The size of the bezel (small) on this TV meant I could up-rate my 40" Sony Bravia TV with a 49" model without losing much space. Good clear picture, smart TV functions are good. I went full array rather than OLED because the TV is adjacent to a large amount of glazing,

I did a fair bit of YouTube research and it was a toss up between this model and an LG OLED BX bla bla whatever.... There is very little between the two with the LG coming out on top on black to white contrast as you would expect but the Sony holds it's own everywhere else. Costco had a in store deal where I could get the 65" model for under 1200 quid so it was s no brainer for me. I bought it...stuck it on the wall...set it up...all easy BTW and I've been loving it ever since. My wife is a bit sick of me saying....that's a good picture...all the time. My other TVs are quite high end and appreciate when the image is how it should be. If you are disappointed with this tv you will need to spend significantly more to best this product in performance. I'm hard to please, ask my wife...but I'm impressed with this telly every time om infront if it.

I am still learning about the array of features this TV has got. The picture quality is amazing. On installation the set up was so user friendly and I was able to set up the Web browser features using google with my phone. Looking forward to continuing to be amazed by this product

I bought this tv to replace my existing Sony tv which had given me 11 years of trouble free use. What a difference in picture quality 11 years and full array LEDs has made. Also the built in streaming facility makes accessing all the various streaming service apps quick and simple.

Iv had this tv a few weeks now, looks great, easy to set up and use the features! And mostly I love the more natural colouring rather than everything being so bright and in-natural! Perfect picture!

Bought this to replace a 40 inch Samsung. This has a lot more features, easy to operate remote. The one thing I didn’t like was that the TV leans backwards.

I bought this a month ago and am very pleased with it's ease of use and great picture.

Fabulous sharp images. Even makes the b&w stuff look superb.

This is my second Sony Android TV and this one is head and shoulders above the previous model I owned,The picture is good straight from the box needing only minor tweaks,the sound is about what you would expect from s TV these days ,I guess most customers will have a soundbar,only criticism is the remote isn't the backlit version

I’m well please with this tv it has great sound great picture

A special product but oh dear do we need a written operators manual.

The TV meets all expectations. Top functions. Fast responce. Perfect quality.

Bought one month ago, 10 years after buying my previous Sony TV. What a difference in terms of image, features and speed. Connected to my Home Cinema receiver, the sound is great, from tv as well as from music app. Last highlight for Netflix picture and sound quality

Excellent television, brilliant features and the colour is absolutely superb

Bought this to use with a PS5, upgrading from an old 1080p SDR TV. The colours are really impressive and makes the environments in the games much more beautiful. The display brightness adjusts automatically to the ambient level, and the full-array helps make dark games both easier to play and more immersive. The sound is great. The menus on the TV are fast and well-designed, making it easy to use. It is definitely worth making the change to 4K HDR displays and this is one of the best TVs at this size-range.

Searched all products within my price range and this hasnt dissapointed me. Stick with what you know, sony all the way

Very easy to use and in our use, only antenna wire and electric cord needed. Great colors and hi-fi sounds. It is useful to read the installation guide before ripping the package open;)

had 2 weeks now , has the old I wanted was not in stock anywhere

I owned it for almost two months and I am more than happy with it. Really excellent TV.

It’s been on the wall for 10 days, better colour than the previous 55” LG Smart and doesn’t lose internet connection like the LG did regularly.. Set up was straight forward the Humax works well with it too...

Had a 6 year old Samsung which was also a 5* What Hi-Fi and TV rated product which had developed a white dot in the top left. This was also rated 5* but I have to say the picture is so much better. The sound is great and once hooked up to my Sonos sound bar is amazing. I have another Sony TV which is also an Android TV which made the use of this one seamless. I am very happy with the picture, sound and features on this TV. The remote is also very simple to use. I have owned LG, Samsung and Sony previously but the picture quality of Sony right now seems to be better. Would recommend this TV, very happy with it.

Excellent image, great sound quality, even without an external sound system. Auto detect on HDMI works pretty well, and for the most part, the interface is intuitive to use.

TV is about a month old now. Best features are; -sound - android OS is very punchy. - Google assistant is great,vstill learning it.. you can turn TV on off, volume, change channel easily by speaking. - very bright contrast, very noticed in games and sunny beaches etc, light through mountains etc. - remote control doesn't feel cheap with a nice weight to it, lights up too. - very sharp with the right content. The only not so great is the blacks could be deeper but to get that you would pay allot more for OLED and I don't think they offer the same brightness this set would because the have tiny bulbs and would burn out the screen. Also I am having trouble with the built in Chromecast, the app for it doesn't appear to be free so I just used my normal Chromecast. So my choice was this TV because it had one of the best TV processors out there, X1 Ultimate and saved a fortune over OLED with peace of mind it is more durable than oled. TV is rich in colour, brightness and sound. So yea, I would recommend and it should last longer than expensive OLED.

Have no doubts this is the best television I have owned superior colour great price and very very happy with the performance of the television five-star to Sony

Great ttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt

I had it for over a week now & getting to love it more.

Bought this a few weeks ago, blown away with the quality, only have one issue, the built in chromecast is a little flakey. But apart from that. Landed.

I already owned a Sony Bravia tv but having moved to a larger flat I decided to treat myself to a larger model and as usual I am more than happy with my purchase.

Bought my Sony TV about a month ago lured by AV forums for maniacs that discuss blooming, black uniformity, colour calibration and other stuff that regular people rarely pay attention to. I have to say that this time around they were right. HDR even though not as good as with larger brothers (55ich and up) is fantastic, contrast, brightness clarity really outstanding. Local dimming sings it song and I am rewatching some of my movies in 4K just to enjoy the view! Dolby Sound, even though again not as good as with bigger brothers (fewer speakers -  only two), it is very good. When hooked up to my Yamaha receiver it clearly gives this awesome spacial "cinema theater" like sound. My missy words not mine but this time around I agree. The only annoying thing is that they give you "cheap" remote control. In the end you are buying premium product (yes I know it is not 55 inch, not everyone lives in a mansion) but they give you a "cheap" remote control. When you buy the 55 inch version they give you a nice fancy remote control for 49", sorry but nope. Otherwise, we will see how long it lasts! But I am very pleased with it at the moment. Top product.

I bought this tv a couple of weeks ago, having bought Sony brand tv's for the last 30+ years, and I am not disappointed. I know there are other brands on the market which are cheaper, but I think that generally you get what you pay for. On opening the box on the top of the packaging there is a sheet of paper warning when removing it from the box and setting it up not to press on the screen itself to prevent damage - I had read a review warning of this happening, so if people don't bother reading instruction/warning information then I have no sympathy when they damage things! In my view it is too expensive an item to not take heed of warnings! There are a couple of differences to my last Sony tv (purchased 4 years ago - which is now in my daughter's bedroom!), which initially took some getting used to, but I am very happy with it overall.

I bought this TV 2 months ago and I’ve been fairly pleased with it except for the remote control which doesn’t seem to be working at all. Need to contact Sony and request its replacement.

We have had this TV for about a month now and are very pleased with it. One thing to note is that the legs of the stand are at the extreme edge of the screen. This put them outside of our unit that it was to standing on. We had to purchase a centrally located stand that attaches to the wall mounted fixing points. A facility to use the remote as a 'mouse' to enter details during setup rather then moving the cursor around by up/down left/right movements would be a big advantage.

Bought 55xh9505 October 2020 and i am very impressed of the quality of image this tv has! The android comes as a bonus and is very fast and has so many apps i can use, almost as smart phone! No regrets i bought this tv! Totally recommended !

Excellent quality and picture and features and values

We changed this color TV from Samsung , which we were able to use for almost 3 months, to this Sony color TV, the sound is less but the colors are fantastic.

I have been installing TV aerials and satellite systems since 1992 and I have wall mounted over 600 hundred televisions to date, I have spent literally hours trying to get a good quality picture from this TV and it is impossible!!! My 8 year old Samsung 8000 has a much better picture quality!! The images are so smooth on this TV it is ridiculous, and the noise in the colours is a joke! The darkness around the edge of the screen makes me wonder what if Sony engineers are blind! The sound is good but I like to watch the TV not use it as a radio. FLAGSHIP LCD!!! NOT!!! IT'S GOING BACK TO THE SHOP

Had this tv a few weeks now very happy with picture and happy how smooth it runs the android side of things.Must admit I encounter a few issues which I manage to solve by joining the Sony forum and searching for fixes.I still have 1 issue that I don't know if I can fix but I will keep trying. Overall very happy with this tv

Our last TV was a Sony Bravia 40inch 14 years old this one is unbelievable so we still have a lot to learn

We bought this a month ago and so far its been brilliant

Out of the box, it works like a charm. Without having to make any picture adjustments it looks great. Youview HD, great Bluray disc, great 4k on amazon and netflix. Great Now TV sports. Great Expensive at £899. Yes, definitely.
