FAQs
What operating system does the Sony BRAVIA 3 use?
The Sony BRAVIA 3 runs on Android TV with the Google TV interface, providing access to a wide range of apps and streaming services.
Can I mirror my phone screen to this TV?
Yes, the TV comes with built-in Google Cast and Apple AirPlay 2, allowing you to easily mirror content from compatible Android, iOS, and other devices.
Is this TV good for gaming?
Absolutely. The BRAVIA 3 features a dedicated Game Menu, ALLM (Auto Low Latency Mode), and eARC for smooth, responsive gaming. It's also optimized for PlayStation 5, unlocking additional gaming features and supporting PS Remote Play.
How do I access the exclusive BRAVIA CORE movies?
BRAVIA CORE is an exclusive streaming service for select Sony TVs. You can access it directly from your TV's apps. The TV often comes with vouchers for redeemable movies and a period of unlimited streaming, which you can activate within the app.
How can I control the TV with my voice?
The TV supports Voice Control through Google Assistant. Simply speak into the remote control (if it has a built-in microphone) or a connected Google Assistant device to search for content, control playback, and manage smart home devices.
What is the Eco Dashboard 2?
The Eco Dashboard 2 is a feature that gives you comprehensive control over your TV's energy settings. You can adjust power consumption options, which can help in reducing your energy bills and environmental impact.
What kind of picture quality can I expect from the 4K X1 Processor and XR Triluminos Pro?
The 4K X1 Processor uses AI to upscale content to near 4K quality, enhancing detail. XR Triluminos Pro generates billions of bright, natural colors, while Dolby Vision provides cinematic detail, contrast, and color, resulting in an incredibly vibrant and lifelike picture.
Troubleshooting
No picture or sound
Check if the power cord is securely plugged into both the TV and the wall outlet. Press the power button on the TV itself, not just the remote. Ensure the correct input source (HDMI 1, TV, etc.) is selected on the remote.
Smart features (apps, streaming) not working
Verify your Wi-Fi connection is active and stable by checking other devices on the same network. Restart your router and the TV by unplugging both for 30 seconds. Check if there are any pending software updates for the TV or the specific app.
Poor picture quality (blurry, pixelated)
Ensure you are watching 4K content to experience the full resolution. For non-4K content, the TV's upscaling should improve it. Check the source device's output resolution settings. Adjust picture settings (e.g., Brightness, Contrast, Sharpness) in the TV's menu. If using an external device, try a different HDMI cable.
Remote control not responding
Check and replace the batteries in the remote. Ensure there are no obstructions between the remote and the TV's IR receiver. Try pairing the remote again if it's a Bluetooth remote (refer to the TV's manual for pairing instructions).
