First impression BRAVIA 3 Sony

First impression of the Sony BRAVIA 3

The box of the Sony BRAVIA 3 contains 2 remotes with batteries, the manual, a quick start guide, 2 leg stands, and the power cord. The high build quality f the BRAVIA 3 stands out to me right away. The thin screen has a sleek finish and feels sturdy at the same time. I can attach the leg stands to the bottom of the TV without screws. This way, I quickly set up the TV and didn't need any tools.

Bright 4K screen

The Sony BRAVIA 3 is a 4K LED TV. Thanks to the sharp 4K resolution, I can see every detail of my favorite movies. The TV has Edge-Lit Local Dimming and uses LED lights behind the bezel for vibrant, bright colors. Thanks to the distribution of the LED lights, an edge-lit screen is usually less bright in the middle. I don't notice this with the BRAVIA 3. The entire screen is equally bright.

Convenient Google TV smart platform

On this TV, I can stream movies and series via the Google TV smart platform. The menu is clear and shows the most popular streaming services. For example, apps like Disney+, Prime Video, and Crunchyroll. I can quickly turn on a new series. Above the popular streaming services, I can see a row with series I'm currently watching. This saves me a lot of time. I know where I left off right away and quickly continue watching.

Game remotely with PS Remote Play

I think the BRAVIA 3 is a must-have for gamers. That's because of the PS Remote Play app. Via this app, I can remotely play my games on my PlayStation 5. For example, does your BRAVIA 3 hang in a bedroom, but is your PlayStation 5 in the living room? I can effortlessly continue gaming there. I just need a stable internet connection. The resolution of the screen is a bit lower via the app, but I find the image quality good enough for a nice gaming experience.

Conclusion

The Sony BRAVIA 3 is a nice starter model and a real must-have for in your bedroom. The TV has a bright 4K screen. Via the Google TV smart platform, you have quick access to your favorite streaming services. You see an overview of series you're watching right away, so you can continue where you left off. Thanks to the PS Remote Play app, you only need 1 PlayStation 5 for your entire household.
