Sony 50 Inch 4K Ultra HD TV X77L Series: LED Smart Google TV KD50X77L- 2023 Model, Black

We originally bought a different brand, which failed quickly, repair attempts failed, got a refund. Having a Sony already in a different room, we decided to go with Sony again. Great picture, really good sound for TV speakers, no issues. Set=up was straightforward, quick and easy. Slightly more expensive than some competitors, but absolutely worth it. Ya get what ya pay for - highly satisfied.

While I've had several plasmas and a potpourri of flatscreens I've never had an OLED. So, when I needed a HDTV for our pool house I was thinking about an OLED. With OLED I know it's close to any current 2024 state of the art. But I could not rationalize spending more than for a 65" OLED. I really didn't want a 65" HDTV for the pool house. I wanted a 85" model. That was a bit of a problem too because 85" quantum dot featuring local and/or mini LED dimming HDTVS (the kind that can stand up to OLED comparison) are in the 3K+ and up range. In my homes basement I have a 86" LG with quantum dot tech and area LED dimming...but that one was around 2K a year ago when I got it. The current model by LG was a bit more. Enter Sony. I remember in the late seventies/early eighties the gold standard it TV was the Trinitron. Over the years Sony has risen and fell and they're currently not just riding a rise, but continuing to ascend. This brought me to this HDTV. It's the absolute lowest priced model by a major manufacturer for its size at the moment. And that combined with it being a Sony interested me. I pulled the trigger and I couldn't be more pleased. I won't go into the technical stuff, but I sat down after a slow setup and was blown away. This HDTV really delivers. It's very bright with a wide angle of view. It is not one of those overly reflective screens that you have to juggle room lighting around which is a plus. In the end, though, it's the resolution and color that wooed me. Just amazing considering the size and price. I may not be as critical as the videophiles that obsess over minutia, but I know what looks really impressive and right. This set looks impressive, it does colors right even out of the box, and at the price combined with the fact it's a Sony. Well, I'm more than happy with this set. I do have a sound bar and for movies and music I highly recommend this as a required add-on. That's about it.

Picture quality is great, sound is pretty good too for being integrated. Love the price for the TV overall. HOWEVER, I assumed a Google interface would be remotely acceptable to use and BOY was I wrong. The lag is a complete catastrophe - main menu, in YouTube, in Disney+, in Hulu, doesn't matter. It seems like the TV does not have the operating power to load half the features it has, let alone the ads. I know that my "continue watching" is 4 down-button-clicks, and once I power on the TV I click it 4 times. It can be up to 30 or more FULL SECONDS (not an exaggeration. Literally. I have time to scroll social media) before it makes the noise indicating it knows I made an input and attempts to scroll - and often it won't respond 4 times. And by the time I make it down to that option, sometimes it's now loaded some other show in that spot and I end up clicking on something random. This happens all over the main menu - see a recommended YouTube video you want to watch? Good luck scrolling over to it before something else loads. To add to this, Disney+ and YouTube regularly crash in the middle of what I'm watching (especially Disney+), or act like I don't have internet. No other device in my home has this issue and we have great internet. Each update it seems to get slower, too. I'm not sure if it's just placebo and my frustration, but there have been at least 2 or 3 updates since I bought it and I think it's going more downhill. If I could give it 0 stars I would. I am beyond annoyed with this TV but now I can't get rid of it just to try a different one with a potentially worse user interface. I'm better off watching stuff on my laptop or phone where it's easier to install adblockers and uninstall bloatware. Oh well.

This tv replaced a slightly smaller, wall mounted 2014 Sony Bravia, which gave us an opportunity to compare picture quality, sound, ease of remote use, etc. It was a real eye opener. It might be odd to start with the remote, but honestly, my husband can't stop talking about it. Easy to use and logical placement of the buttons made it a hands down winner. As for the tv, the new screen (which, to be fair, has a higher resolution than a 2014 model) has a sharp, crystal clear image. The speakers are strategically placed to direct sound beautifully, so much so that the new tv's sound set at 26 was louder (using same video for comparison) than the older model set at 42. Instructions were clear; tv mounted quickly on the wall by one person. Google walked us through the installation in about 10 minutes. Spent the most time trying to decide which screen lighting we liked the best. Opted for the brighter at this time. Between the price and the quality, I don't feel you can go wrong with this model. It's a great tv for a smaller family room/kitchen area. FWIW, we have a 65 inch OLED Sony in the living room. Surprisingly, the picture quality isn't that different. Anyway, I would definitely recommend this tv. I haven't read the other reviews, but in my humble opinion, what's not to love?

Good TV at value price. Picture is average and a little dark, even on full brightness. Lacks a bit of saturation. Based on other reviews, I did buy a sound bar but it is not necessary, I almost regret buying a sound bar because the original volume on the TV by itself is fine. There was some hiccups connecting it to WIFI, but otherwise set up was fast between 30 mins and 1 hr. Dont have any tips for WIFI connectivity issues, I just got lucky.. TV does lag for a second or two a couple of times every day but it doesnt disturb watching process as it resumes almost immediately. I am satisfied with this TV but it is not perfect. I bought it to watch TV to fall asleep to at night so works fine for me

Easy to set up and the picture quality is excellent. Always wanted a Sony tv to go with my Sony surround sound receiver. Great colour and deep blacks.

Buena pantalla gama de entrada, hice cambio de una Samsung HD 2017 a esta Sony y puedo decir que es buena, aun que en la calidad de la imagen en los laterales si pierde un poco de nitidez y vida en los colores, la comparo con mi anterior Samsung y aun que era solo HD y del año 2017 se veía de maravilla en cualquier ángulo que te posicionaras, esta Sony al ser gama de entrada no esta mal, el sistema operativo Google es excelente y fluido, es antirreflejante, el sonido es aceptable y la marca habla por si misma en cuestión de calidad.

Super recomendable, muy buena definición de imagen, calibrando los colores puede mejorar aún más, sonido aceptable, buena fluidez de imagen, lee muy rápido los discos HDD a través de sus puertos USB. Sistema operativo muy fluido. Buena TV sin dudarlo.

I am so happy with this TV. I was unsure about purchasing from Amazon, but I gave it a shot and the delivery was great!! The two delivery guys who brought it to my door handled it with care. I highly recommend!!

Awesome images and sound, easy to learn and to set up, very easy remote control, everything is working perfectly... BUT very laggy when it comes to change screen,apps,channels,or between the integrated apps ex. Disney+,Prime etc etc ... and a bit dark screen you'll have to change the brightness etc... and the gaming set up is bad ( I have XBox) maybe better with PS5 playstation. 4/5 stars 👍
