Is there a consensus that Sony tvs are better due to android TV on them?

[–] JohnnyWishbone@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago (2 children)

No I specifically bought a Sony for my parents for ease of use and it is one of the worst purchases I have ever made.

I picked this specific model after looking for 3 months.

No where in any of the documentation or reviews did it say by plugging in a HDD I can only record a channel if I'm watching it and not record one channel while watching another which is a total deal breaker.

Also it has developed a fault where it basically shits its self every couple of weeks and the picture pixelates. It needs to be unplugged for a week and plugged back in. I've tried a new power pack but it doesn't really help. The only other thing I could do is get a new main board but can't source one with 6 months of searching eBay.

Do yourself a favour and buy a cheap LG panel and stick a streaming stick in it and never connect it to the internet.
