Amazon 4K43N400A vs Sony X85J

First of all, let me say that I rated the Alexa and Smart Features in the middle just because I don't use them -- at least not yet. So don't judge the product based on that!

There's a row of your favorite apps that can be rearranged in any order you like by long pressing the center button of the directional pad on the remo...

On day 2 I was unable to get the TV to respond to the remote to turn on. I used the physical power button in the bottom middle of the TV to start it manually and the remote functioned fine after that. Since that, the remote has functioned flawlessly to turn on the TV. I have no idea what caused the initial issue

The number buttons shouldn't be up at the top of the remote. Means you have to shift your hand every time you want to use them. Also, there's a delay and/or have to double push "jump", "guide" or really any button to get to function. As if you have to prime the pump! Annoying but workable

This TV (I know, it is a FireTV) is very app/streaming centric, but once I found the setting to default to last input, and that is 99% of the time HDMI1, then it behaves like I want, turn on and display my input, not the apps home screen where I have to use the TVs remote to clear it and show input in HDMI1. I mainly use the remote for my satellite service, and rarely use the TV one, but since it is also the streaming apps, I will use it, and it adds yet another Alexa mic to do things from, TV related or not. TV can be slow sometimes to turn on (it turns on reasonably, but doesn't show what is on the input for a while), again thought the remote was misbehaving again, it was just taking time to show anything. Sound is better than old TV, none of them are real great, I do have a sound bar but I can use this TV with out for watching news and normal shows (not action movies or things with lots of audio like music)

We created X-Balanced speakers which are designed to complement the slimness of today's TVs while still giving you a high quality audio experience. Wi...

I will say that the FireTv interface is very spammy. There's a few sponsored banners on the home page. A lot of the recommendations are for Prime Video -- which I have -- but a lot of them aren't free with Prime. They're recommending me content that I have to buy /rent -- which makes it feel like I'm being advertised to

And what that is, is do you see a halo around the logos that I'm showing here? And I would tell you that it's doing a pretty good job overall. I don't...
