Disappointed
on July 26, 2015
Posted by: LeoNYC
I am a Loyal Sony Customer. Currently I own XBR LX 900 and XBR HX 929 and XBR X950B. I recently purchased X900C 55 inch Very Thin TV. Picture Quality is great if I overlook the bright light bleeding at the edge and if I overlook the 2'x2' hazy spot very apparent with scenes with white background, in the Left upper Quadrant of the screen.Image is attached below. I truly believe that in order to go Very Thin with screen width the picture defects have become more apparent. For the First time Ever I am returning a Sony product. My other 3 Sony TV's are Amazing and hope that Sony Will Consider making a 55 inch TV which is NOT Very Thin and with Full Array Local Dimming. Better Quality Control May have helped resolve these issues also.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Light Bleed, wire issues, great picture
on July 27, 2015
Posted by: wstuartj
I would recommend this TV w/ caveats. The picture is great but there is definitely light bleed as a number of the reviews have stated.
The review by Ivo1 is spot on.
* the picture is fantastic!
* light bleed on edges and the right corner is annoying
* mounting the TV on the wall w/ wired Ethernet connectivity forces the TV to be pushed out on one side and therefore lopsided

Hello wstuartj! Thank you for sharing this information with us, the LCD screen is made with high-precision technology to achieve a high level of performance and picture quality. To achieve this level of performance, the backlight setting of the TV is set to maximize the screen brightness. However, uneven brightness may be observed when the TV is viewed in a dark environment without a video input source, or with a blank screen. This condition is normal and not a malfunction of the TV.
If you should find this affects your enjoyment, here are a few adjustments that can be made to minimize this condition.
NOTE: Some of the procedures listed below may not be available on all television models. If specific information is required to complete any of the steps, refer to the instruction manual of the television. Manuals, Specifications and Warranty information for your Sony product is available online.
1 - Reduce the Backlight Level in the Picture Settings Menu.
2 - Turn the Light Sensor setting to On in the Setup Menu.
3 - Change the Power Saving setting to Low or High in the Setup Menu.
If you are still uncomfortable with the way the television is being displayed, please email us at socialsupport@am.sony.com and include your contact information, model, serial number with a description of the issue you are experiencing with this unit.

Sony is the best TV made
on August 19, 2015

I wanted the 65" Sony XBR-65X900C TV to mount on my brick fireplace wall. I must admit after reading a few reviews, I hesitated to order this TV but I wanted the ultra thin floating style and after professional electricians installed this TV over the fire place and turned it on, we were overwhelmed how fabulous it looked and the color is true to life. The electrician did not calibrate a thing. It was perfect from the start. I am glad I went with my own instinct and wanted to let people know, this is a fabulous TV.

It's been 2 weeks since I purchased this tv & I love the way it is performing. The colors are "rich" and so far no bleeding at the bottom like some other customers have stated.

Awesome TV!!!
on July 20, 2015
Posted by: FlyAway
This is one of the best purchases I've ever made. Sony is top of the line when it comes to picture quality and the appeal of the TV. And this TV is absolutely outstanding. As I think everyone knows, Sony's user interface can be designed to be more friendly. But apart from that, this has great picture quality and is really really thin!!

The TV has worked great since we purchased it and we paired it with a Sony sound bar model HT-NT3 and the sound is great with a super picture quality

I needed a new TV to fit a larger space. I owned a 10yr old 40" TV from Sony that was still going strong. I did some research and was torn between a low end OLED or a 120 hz model with LED, back and edge lighting ( LED was older tech but bugs and issues were worked out). At a certain point all of the pictures looked the same in the store and I went with what I knew was good quality . I haven't used all of the features yet as I just set it up yesterday but so far so good.
As of now; easy to set up myself and happy.

Very easy to set up. I mounted on wall with no problem. Great picture for movies and gaming. Variety of Apps. Refresh rate fantastic for sports. Only complaint is the remote. It's 2017 - can I get a remote that works with DirecTV? Seriously - that is not acceptable.
Aside from the remote issue, this is a great TV
