It would not consistently turn on for some reason, after a week, saw the label said Made in Mexico, and subsequently returned it.
I also noticed it had issues with voice syncing, which I've never seen on a live broadcast, unless its the Spectrum set top box issue.
Instead of trying another Sony, I suggested we get Toshiba, as I already have a Toshiba 75 for 5 years now.
I explained the drawbacks of OLED, such as burn in, lifetime and energy demand.
Amazingly, the brightness of Toshiba (Hisense) is blinding, compared to the OLED, and the FireTV is way more advanced than Google TV OS that is on the Sony.
After showing them Alexa, they got a $18 Fire Stick for their old Samsung 1080.
Even the reviews on the Sony is mixed.
Wait until I show them how you can connect USB flash to the Toshiba and have DVR rew/ff the live program in progress. I use this all the time. Start the NFL game, then go shower, get my food/drink, and then choose 'watch from beginning' and then it goes back 90 minutes to the beg of the game and i can skip thru downs, commercials, halftime etc.
So the 3h game turns out only to waste 1h of my life instead. Winner.
During covid, i even had zoom installed and my logitech webcam and was doing zoom meetings in 4k 75 inches.
I don't think they will need that feature but running android and being able to sideload and download custom apps is a true win for a geek.
Prior to this Toshiba, I was a big LG WebOS fan (RIP Palm), but too many restrictions, and apps discontinued, missing, unavailable.
I heard you can install modded hacks to the LG, but TMW and why bother when there's this option.
