This is good news as far as I’m concerned. I was burned by an expensive Bravia TV with a lack of promised feature support, poor quality control, zero customer support, and unfixable hardware design flaws that made several prominent features permanently unusable.

TCL on the other hand might have always been a budget brand, but their TVs are very well made considering their price point. They are much more competently made TVs with a level of quality control that blows Sony out of the water. If they commit to making the Bravia series at its current price point, as opposed to just turning the Bravia line into budget TVs, I’m reasonably confident they can deliver.

Honestly sounds like nothing is really changing except branding and maybe where panels are sourced from.

My TCL has been going strong for 8 years now. I’ll stand behind supporting That Cheap Life.

Sony has always been shit at supporting their TV line. I certainly don't slthink this means things will get any worse per se. Maybe some hope for improvement.

I avoid Sony purely because they push exclusives on consoles. Totally unrelated but I guess that's one of the negatives of being a big brand.
