Not Ready For Primetime

This TV was released too soon and doesn't match the quality of other SONY TVs I've owned (only XBR models). The TV loses its WiFi connection within a day and then doesn't see any WiFi connections unless you reset it and do the initial setup again. When the TV is off and you press the power button, it takes 5 seconds before the TV shows any response and by then you've pressed the button again, and the TV turns back off as soon as it comes on. Entering a WiFi password with 16 characters with mostly upper case letters takes forever since you have to shift each character since the TV doesn't simply toggle upper/lower case like most modern products. The picture quality doesn't look any better than my HD SONYs even streaming 4K content.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This is my first smart LED TV ever .. over all it is good experience, enjoying it for past two weeks .... yet exploring it's many features. Below are my observations and issues faced :: -I can see BLUETOOTH option in this TV (not tried yet) .. not sure why it's not mention in product catalog - Wish it could have TRILUMINOS ..some time color seems a little washed especially in a well lit room - sometime during fast moving object colors seems out of focus - Netflix crashed twice ... every time have to restart TV .... called technical support, even they don't have much idea about features and issues with this set - Google Cast not working properly .. sometime it works, always have to restart TV - Not sure if this set support PIP and browser currently .. have latest upgrade installed - Hope to get HBO Now and other popular apps in next upgrade - Waiting for more 4k content to watch - Horrible delivery .... that guy instead of lifting TV .. vertically roll over TV set .. just for 10-12 steps ... shocked inside out on seeing this ... thanks it does not affect TV
Slow tv for a smart tv. No many apps at the store. Any updates to speed up tv will be nice.

Again, thank you for your review.
4K Models of SONY are too big for Bedrooms. I am using 40 inch W600 which does not play 4K content. I wish that this model will also have copy, delete, move and recording option on any attached media.
