Dude, Sony USED to make the best TV's and did for decades, but since around 2008 or so Samsung has made better TV with a better reliabity record.  It's why Sony is selling off it's TV business.

selling off??? 2015 4k bravia line says no i guess...

Really not sure if you are kidding or just out of touch.  Yes, Sony sold off it's PC deivions a while ago and has been looking to do the same for TV.  They haven't made any money off TV in a decade and recntly Samsung paid them nearly a billion on their join LCD venture.

"After years of losses, Sony now aims to lift operating profit to Yen500 billion ($4.2 billion) in three years. It expects to eke out an operating profit in the year ending in March, with the TV business turning to the black for the first time in a decade.

Mr. Hirai said Wednesday that he envisioned spinoffs of other units. He also said the company would consider a sale of the TV unit or the company's struggling smartphone business, though he said nothing was currently in the works.

"I think we have to keep those possibilities in mind," he said."

Just this week they reject an offer on Sony Pictures.  George Clooney helped bail them out.
