|I was happy with it at $1300,
A brand-new Sony 43″ 4K for $800? Yep. I was happy with it at $1300, now I’m absolutely delighted.
This TV has one of the best pictures I have ever seen. And for me, that’s the bottom line. Netflix in 4K, which was added 5/31/15, has to be seen to be believed. It really is as good as you’ve heard.So is YouTube in 4K. Amazon Prime Instant Video in 4K isn’t here yet, but the 1080 version is, and it looks great.
Every source you play through this TV is upscaled to 4K, and everything looks wonderful. Regular TV, recorded HD TiVo programs, streaming shows, Blu-Ray, AppleTV, the Playstation 4, and even a PC when using this as a computer monitor. Plus, I use a Google Nexus 6 smartphone, which shoots video in 4K. I uploaded some clips to YouTube and they look insanely good on the TV. Everything looks better than ever.
It has a lot of inputs: 4 HDMI (all support 4K) 3 USB, one component, one composite, ethernet, antenna, etc. One great feature, for those of us who have older AV receivers without HDMI capability – all the audio that enters this set, whether HDMI, streaming, OTA or analog, is output via the digital optical cable. So I can just leave my receiver on TV input, and everything comes out great. It does produce surround sound – but the 5.1 lights on my receiver don’t come on. No big deal – the surround sound is excellent.
To use this for 4K streaming, you will need fast internet. But that’s true of every 4K set. I have 75/75 and it’s great. The only issue is sometimes on YouTube or Netflix 4K, the picture stutters a bit from time to time. It will stop…and a second later start again. I’m not sure whether that’s this TV, or my internet. I’m going to try a test with the Nvidia Shield 4K STB, to see if that stutters, too. I’ll let you know.
In a way, this TV is like an enormous smartphone. It’s powered by Android TV, using Google’s Lollipop OS. It has apps like a phone, has to be updated like a phone, and even needs the occasional restart like a phone. It connects to the Google Play store, as well as Google Music and Movies.
Sony is gradually releasing the software for this set over time, when it becomes available. A lot of it is just being approved for Android TV. That’s why Netflix just came out – Google just released 4K Netflix for Android TV three days ago. I believe a browser will arrive soon, along with Amazon 4K, and perhaps Ultraflix (4K movies). So far, the updates happen every two weeks, on Sunday morning. So we’ll see what, if anything, we get June 14th.
This model is Sony’s entry level 4K. It does not come with the voice-activated remote, and does not feature some of the the ultra-high-end picture elements the huge screens do. But I had to fit this into a specific cabinet, and I needed this exact size screen.
For me? The unbelievable picture quality, the price, the features and the size make it a home run.

|Great as a computer monitor. It being a television is just a bonus.,
I had no issues with the setup process to convert this television into a monitor. Some assembly is required for the base, but in my estimation it is worth the time as the base is top quality. It is sturdy, stable, and made of metal. Very good for ones peace of mind. The initial booting up, and loading of the monitor is straight forward, and fairly painless. Though it is somewhat time consuming as the television take a little under an hour to fully install all the necessary files from your wireless modem. After that I simply set the television where I wanted it. Plugged it in, and hooked up the HDMI 2.0 cable to it, and to my gaming rig. Turned it on, scrolled down to the appropriate input device and clicked. My computer had no issues recognizing the device, and neither did my graphics card, or my drivers, and my computer had no issue at all using the television as far as audio was concerned. Definitely an added boon for yours truly as I was really hating on my old speakers.
There are a couple things that some should know that are new to the prospect of 4K. First while you can game in this resolution, and you will in time be able to watch 4K content through your televisions smart function, or watch 4K videos online. To be honest there aren’t too many available at this time. You will probably not be using the resolution for your other applications as most application haven’t been coded to scale properly at this time. Icons shrink, you get unsightly side bars, and well it is just a lot of hassle. Until companies update their operating systems, and their webpages, and so on and so forth. Good for gaming, good for streaming, lousy for browsing. The manufacturer can’t be held liable for that others need to catch up.
Second you need a 4K capable graphic card with HDMI 2.0 support as that is the only option in this situation, and obviously the cable to make it all happen, and perhaps most importantly of all be comfortable with a certain loss in performance. Unless you are running a beat you are going to take a hit in the frame rate department even if you turn a number of things down. One advantage is the higher resolution does make a number of graphical features redundant.
Now that all being said there is one other caveat. If you game on consoles this review doesn’t apply to you. Your machine will not allow you to be able to game at this resolution. The hardware is insufficient to the task. Even mid to high end gaming PC’s struggle to run this resolution. Well to be honest that is relative as most things are, but the point is still valid. I even have me doubts they can offer streaming at this resolution. I really don’t see how that is doable or practical. Maybe through some wild accessories, but you will have to pay for them, and honestly this television is seeing to that being redundant. It doesn’t need a console to connect you to that content. So anyway you can’t game at 4K with the current crop of consoles. For you that will have to wait till next generation, and cross your fingers on that.
Anyway in my opinion excellent as a monitor if you want to game loud and proud. It also being a functional television is a bonus as it has plenty of connection options, and the smart television functions only add to the package further. A great value for the purpose. I personally felt better by being able to see the television in action before I bought it. So I purchased at a brick and mortar.
