Beautiful picture and sound!
I always buy Sony because no other company can match their picture and sound. Sony is also an extremely reliable TV.

Very Nice Upgrade
The Sony Bravia XR A90K is a nice upgrade to our older Sony HD flat-panel television. Features included in it are clever, navigating endless menus is relatively easy, and initial set-up process is user-friendly. The stand on which it sits is exceptionally sturdy and does not easily slip out of place. This set's screen displays colors that are life-like and fresh, right out-of-the-box. However, there are MANY brightness, clarity, and color adjustments built-into this device, for owners that like to fine-tune the display to their own liking. There are two weak spots: (a) Absence of Component RCA Audio-Video Analog Input Jacks on the rear panel, and (b) A cut-rate bare-bones VERY BASIC remote control which LACKS some of the functions we were accustomed to using on previous Sony remote controls. The one redeeming value of the remote control is the intuitive backlighting contained inside of it---the backlight automatically turns itself on when the user picks up the remote control.

Set up directions lacked verbage
Set up directions lacked verbiage and very difficult to follow with only pictures. Did not have words to tell what part goes where. Hubby invented new swear words putting it together! TV quality and sound are excellent. Perfect upgrade from our other Bravia that finally croaked after 18 years, yes 18 years!

Another Sony!!!
I have been shopping Sony all my life. My oldest Sony is almost 20 years old. Time to get updated with the times. Finally went high high tech! I got the near top best and love the 4k image and the apps! Daughter can’t say I’m an old boomer anymore!

Easy set-up, unboxing and assembly. I've owned Sony products for over 40 years now and only once did I feel I got an inferior product.

Best TV on the planet
We recently finished a major remodel of our kitchen and capped off the project by ordering the Sony XR42A90K. Our kitchen gets a lot of traffic and frequently doubles as my wife's office, so we wanted a TV in the room but not something that would overwhelm the space. The 42" A90K is a fantastic option, having installed it and used it for a bit.
My house is a Sony TV house, having moved away from Samsung products and their awful app environment, short support windows, and subpar performance (in my opinion). This is the fourth Sony TV in our home, and the second OLED. I know LG OLEDs also receive very good reviews, but having a common platform in my house, and one my wife and kids are already familiar with pushed us to the Sony OLED.
â–ºPicture Quality:
I am not a professional TV reviewer, but in my estimation it's hard to beat the picture on a Sony OLED. Our A90K is located in a very bright kitchen and performs terrifically! The picture is very bright, while still offering excellent deep blacks and contrast. Any worry about glare was washed away shortly after powering the TV on for the first time.
→Concerns about burn-in:
I've owned a Sony Master-series OLED in my home theater for years and the TV has not experienced any burn-in at all. I frequently game on that set, for reference, and it's worked great for four years without any noticable burn-in. So, I have no concerns with the A90K at all.
â–ºGoogle TV:
One of the biggest selling points on Sony TVs is the integration with Google TV. It's incredibly easy to setup (using the Google Home App), and use. My wife and I have Google's Pixel series Android phones, and the integration with our phones is fantastic - for example, we display a rotating album of our favorite family pictures on all of our Sony TVs when they enter stand-by mode. It's one of our favorite features and requires very little user input to get it set up.
The next best thing is the responsiveness of Sony TVs. Switching from app to app, or from cable is a breeze and the A90K responds immediately. I contrast that experience with our awful Samsung TVs that had noticeable lag when pressing any button.
â–ºI/O:
→ 4 × HDMI -- 2 × @ HDMI 2.1 (inputs 3, 4); 2 × @ HDMI 2.0 (inputs 1, 2)
→ 2 × USB 3.0
→ 1 × Optical out
→ 1 × Ethernet
→ 1 × IR (input)
→ 1 × RS232C
→ 1 × Composite (requires adapter, not included in the box)
â–ºOther Things:
→ The A90K comes removeable plastic backplates that cover areas like the cord and I/O. They're great for completing a clean, minimalist look. I have my TV mounted on our kitchen wall but still installed the plates since they cover up part of the side panel too. Again, purely aesthetic, but I love the finished look.
→ There's a mic mute toggle on the side of the TV. If you want a more privacy and aren't interested in using the Google Voice Assistant, turn the mic to mute.
→ I do not use the included stand but I do appreciate that it's made out of metal and not flimsy plastic.
→ The TV does use on-screen ads (unfortunately). I believe that most TVs these days have them, and it sucks. At least they're unobtrusive and you can opt out of personalized ads when you perform the first-time configuration.
→ The remote is compact but excellent. It feels great in-hand and sturdy. It has a minimalist approach to buttons which is great in a household with kids.
â–ºIn the Box:
→ A90K TV
→ Remote control
→ 2 × AAA batteries
→ Base plate and metal legs
→ 2 × Cable management straps
→ Manual, user guides, and warranty information
â–ºClosing:
That's it! This TV is fantastic and I'm very pleased with my purchase. The picture quality is fantastic, The user interface, sound, inputs are all the top-notch Sony quality I'm used too! This is definitely a TV I recommend!

Excellent TV
I originally was going to buy a different Sony TV and decided to buy a Sony A90K instead, it does cost more than the other one, however it is worth it !! There are many features including a fantastic sound system built right behind the screen, no need for a sound bar. This TV works seamlessly with my Sony UBP X700 /M Blu-ray / DVD player. The picture is excellent and there are many built in apps ( Netflix, Disney+, Prime Video ) and it will connect to Google You Tube. One neat feature about the remote is a automatic backlight when you pick up the remote. You can use just a digital antenna with a coaxial cable if you don't have the internet and wi-fi. I didn't buy this TV for gaming, however it has HDMI inputs for video gaming as well. Just a great TV !!

Awesome Television.
I bought the stove a few weeks back. To replace an old Sony 40 inch 3-D television that I’ve had for 13 years that I simply loved and it’s still working fine. I’ve been very pleased with it in the picture on. It is really good in the sound quality much better than my old 40 inch..

The great picture and features of this TV are bonuses to the fact that this was the biggest screen (48”) that fit into our entertainment center (Due to its “thin” frame and short table top stand option.

Better picture than I expected.
I’ve only had this for a month but from watching cheers reruns through my Apple TV on the Sony XR a 90 the picture is amazing. I was so impressed that when I turned on my 4K Apple TV, the TV actually checked my HDMI cables with Apple TV and said I was able to receive Dolby Vision as well More than what I thought I would get. I thought I’d only get Atmos and 4K now I’m even getting Dolby Vision through my Pioneer elite receivers as well. Definitely recommend this to anybody who doesn’t need just for gaming but is really interested in a quality studio picture.

Great product
I purchased this product about a month ago and are pleased with the superior quality of the picture. The sound is very good as well. Telephone service support has been prompt and excellent. I regret it does not have any split screen capability (picture in picture or side by side). The remote could be enhanced with a number pad as opposed to the number button and subsequent laborious on screen number selection protocol.
This TV has increased my viewing enjoyment and was a worthwhile purchase.

Nice balance in Picture quality in any Scene
This Bravia is our main TV, and it is delightful. We were pleasantly surprised by the sound quality without an added sound bar. The picture quality is excellent for all types of viewing. Sports, movies, and talk TV are clear with an outstanding color range. It was easy to set up, and the remote learned a full range of devices and managed them efficiently. When high-definition input is available, the picture quality is stunning.

Excellent Quality and Build
I love the top quality picture for my gaming and movies! It’s also built very sturdy and nice with the covers to cover the cords on the back of the TV. I LOVE that it comes with a stand that rises for those of us that have sound bars we can’t place anywhere else. Also, the remote is gorgeous and it lights up! Perfect for me seeing what you’re pushing on the remote at night. I’m very pleased with the overall experience of this TV.

I think the Sony Bravia TV is a good TV except for the fact that I had to have it replaced when the picture blacked out. I was very pleased and amazed that P.C.Richard’s replaced my nonfunctioning TV. I will recommend this store to family and friends because of this and of course because it is an excellent store.

EXCEPTIONAL PICTURE!
I wanted an OLED TV for a while and I wanted to be Sony, since we were using Sony TVs for decades and never have had complains with quality. Problem was, for where I need it there was many large options, but I could fit only something under 49 inch. This 48 inch OLED TV fit in it nicely. After installing and setting up all things and apps sat down and WOW! It's only one life and every day of it counts. Watching daily such a perfect picture justifies the money spent. If I had to do it again, I would in a heartbeat.
