Sony BRAVIA 3 K50S30 50"

62 out of 100 high confidence 219 reviews

The Sony Bravia 3 receives mixed feedback. Many users praise its excellent picture quality, vibrant colors, and good value for the price, especially for gaming and secondary rooms. However, a significant number of reviews highlight frustrating issues with WiFi connectivity dropping, the TV turning on by itself, and smart home bugs requiring hard resets. Open-box purchases frequently arrive damaged or missing parts like stands and remotes, leading to poor customer service experiences.

  • Excellent picture quality
  • Vibrant and accurate colors
  • Good value for the price
  • Great for gaming
  • Easy setup
Cons
  • WiFi connectivity drops frequently
  • TV turns on by itself at night
  • Smart home bugs require hard reset
