Rated 5 out of 5 by from Forced BUY (Last of its kind) I rarely give a perfect rating but times are changing and products are being discontinued without replacement. (I'm a SONY fan = all electronics are Sony) Buy while you can. Expensive but worthwhile. Sony mid-level TVs last me 10+ years (this OLED expected at 7 YEARS due to potential "burn in" risk) There will never be flagship 42/43 inch TVs anymore (Sony 2024 models start at 55 inches foreseen as permanent) Picture is great. Sound is the clearest I've ever heard for a TV (soundbar is still needed for movies) Only annoying thing is AAA battery must be NEW (used, and older batteries still work on older remotes BUT NOT THIS REMOTE) for the MSRP of remotes there should be a rechargeable battery with the AAA as an optional backup _____ Only dislike is NO 3.5mm audio out (can't use older SRSZR7 without a HDMI splitter eARC) also this should be marketed like EUROPE (5 year warranty and 2nd plastic remote with numbers) _____ Sony id pay more for smaller TVs. (43, 50 max = LED, OLED, MINI-LED) your picture processor are worth it. Also the DSEE is excellent but should be upgraded from HX to Extreme (DSEE Ultimate for soundbars, and ES RECEIVERS)

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Full control over screen settings I have had this TV for over a year and it has been great. When I watch other people's TV, they are often far too bright for comfortable viewing and the brilliant whites are very hard on my eyes. I can fine-tune the brightness on this Sony and people have mentioned how much nicer it is to watch than their own screens.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from My Wife Loves it I was going to get a LG evo C but knew that Sony has the best sound - It was more expensive but it has 4 HMDI 2.1 ports. We are rewatching all our 4 k movies over again and the colors are awesome. Just wish their was a PS app that I could stream my ps 5

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Hey, It’s SONY!! We have an in home cinema room and have avoided a tv in our main living area since I completed my custom build 7 years ago. Well, our third son is deployed and we wanted to share the holidays the best way possible! After reading reviews and ratings, which SONY always seems to at at the top or close, and recognizing our space requirements, I happily went with the A90K along with the SONY ATMOS sound system, SONY camera, and the SONY wireless headphones. Needless to say I’ve concluded the cinema room may get much less use. Brilliant colors, sound, ease of use, tied to Alexa, and conference app. We are empty nesters sat this point and feel like a teenager with a new toy again. Thank you for incredible engineering and class of design!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Love the picture and sound With the OLED screen, the picture stays bright from all angles, and the sound is quite good. How they make the screen the speaker? Beats me, but it works! Operation is smooth and seamless, and it interfaces well with our variety of feeds (3 dvrs, Fire TV, and a computer).

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Outstanding picture quality and sound I replaced my older Sony BRAVIA 43" with this newer 2023 Sony BRAVIA 42" model. These the largest sizes that would fit in my entertainment center. Great picture quality and sound. When figured out add my Sony 5.1 entertainment center in the mix, sound was even better.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from OLEDs are from outer space! Lol. I bought my TV about 3 weeks ago and I couldn't be happier. The picture has settled down and looks great. I'm coming from a LED Sony x800h set and though I liked that set , there is no comparison to the OLED picture on the A90k. No buyers remorse here!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Plush It is unfair to compare this product to my previous screen (a 15 y/o Aquos) but it is certainly an upgrade to go from an LCD screen to this OLED model. I generally like the Google TV system. I do not like the motion smoothing features of any sort because they seem *overly* natural, and I think this tends to undermind the style of the camera work, oddly. The annoying part is that I seem to have to turn it off when I encounter a new app or configuration -- I can't just say "I don't want this ever". Nevertheless, the screen resolution and color definition are fantastic, so on the whole I find it to be an excellent product.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Sony OLED outstanding picture and sound. I purchased this for a small bedroom after I already had gotten the LG version of this TV. With the LG, it required a sound bar because it sounded terrible. I didn’t want to sound bar in my bedroom so I decided to get the Sony because I know of the acoustic sound in the screen. It was like night and day very pleased. Don’t need a sound bar and perfect for my application in the bedroom.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Sony 42 inch OLED spectacular picture and sound. This is an excellent TV in every way. First off, I had the LG version of this but it requires the use of a sound bar because the sound was terrible. I had it in my bedroom and it’s a small bedroom with the Sony with that acoustic Soundsystem. You don’t need a sound bar so I have now eliminated some thing from the stand, which is what made me quite happy. The apps work beautifully the picture is gorgeous and you don’t need any sound enhancement to be able to watch TV and a movie. Is it a little costly yes, more than the LG, but I think it was worth it. Go ahead splurge on it you’ll be very happy. I’m not a gamer so I can’t give an opinion on its performance with gaining.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Sony Excellence I have had my tv for about a month and I am really pleased with it. The colors, the picture quality and sound are all top notch. Wifi and Bluetooth means less cables and clutter since it is connected wirelessly and at night I use my Bluetooth ear buds.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Sony A90k 42 Excellent picture quality out of the box. Used for bedroom not a gamer but understand that many who look at these reviews are interested in that performance and can expect great performance . My own use are movies and streaming and it is excellent. The build quality is top notch as I have come to expect from Sony .

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Love, Love This Sony TV’s Picture & Sound Quality This is my second purchase of a Sony TV. The brilliant color and audio options available with this TV are so helpful. The images viewed in on-screen movies (or shows) are an absolutely beautiful experience. Initial set-up, speaker, and Bluetooth connectivity was easy. Also, the added feature of being able to choose several free Bravia movies is very much appreciated but not expected.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great TV This is a great TV. I had an older model that still runs perfectly but I wanted a 4k TV. The biggest difference that I see is that this TV is a lot lighter and doesn't have many of the inputs the old TV had (Computer, RCA's etc) The quality and sound are both great and stand up to the Sony brands reputation.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from This is the 42" TV I have anticipated for years I bought an LG Nanocell 42" for my bedroom to upgrade an older Samsung TV a few months ago. It was good but I knew an OLED would be introduced to the market at some point. When Sony and LG 42" OLED was available for sale it was a matter of deciding which one to buy. After reading the reviews Sony was the TV for me. Yes it is expensive for a 42" but the picture quality is amazing. I later installed a JBL soundbar but the sound from the TV is very detailed. The backlit remote is great. Overall this is the 42" TV to buy if you want the best picture and sound.

Does PC Richard deliver and set up tv

Asked by: Hawk137
Yes… BUT: additional charges if you want more than just removing the TV from packaging . Mounting and programming the set can be purchased as part of PC Richard’s installation options. I just had the unpack set and put it on my tabletop swivel stand( free). I did everything else myself.
