1 review for Sony KD-98ZG9

  1. Mckenna Bentley

    I recently purchased the Sony KD-98ZG9 TV about a month ago, and as a postman, I was excited to finally have a massive screen to watch my favorite shows and movies on. The first thing that caught my attention was the Netflix app, which made it easy to stream content without having to switch between devices.

    However, I must admit that I’m not completely in love with this TV. While the picture quality is impressive, I find that the colors sometimes seem oversaturated and can be distracting. Additionally, the interface can be a bit sluggish, which is frustrating when I’m trying to navigate through different apps.

    One thing I do appreciate about the Sony KD-98ZG9 is the Yes VESA mounting, which made installation a breeze. It’s also helpful that this TV is compatible with a variety of other devices, so I can easily connect my gaming consoles or streaming devices without any issues.

    Overall, I think this TV is a solid choice for those who prioritize streaming apps and compatibility with other devices. However, I wouldn’t rate it as highly as some other models I’ve tried in the past. When compared to other known TVs, I’d say it falls somewhere in the middle in terms of performance and features.

    As for delivery to Oakland, I was pleased with how quickly the TV arrived and the condition it was in upon arrival. Overall, I think this TV is a decent choice for those looking to upgrade their home entertainment system, but it may not be the best fit for everyone.

Frequently Asked Questions:

How do I connect my laptop to the HDMI inputs on the Sony KD-98ZG9 for screen mirroring?

Make sure your laptop has an HDMI output port. If it doesn't, you may need to use a USB-C or VGA adapter or cable to connect to the TV. Ensure that your Sony KD-98ZG9 television is turned on and set to the correct input source for HDMI. This can typically be done by pressing the "INPUT" or "SOURCE" button on the TV remote control until you see the "HDMI" option displayed. Connect one end of an HDMI cable to the HDMI output port on your laptop and the other end to an available HDMI input on the TV. Make sure the cable is securely connected at both ends. Press the "Input" button again on the TV remote control until you see your laptop's display appear on the TV screen. This may take a few seconds, especially if your laptop is sleeping or locked. If prompted, select the appropriate HDMI input source from the list of available sources on your laptop. This can typically be done by going to the "Display Settings" or "Projector" settings in the Control Panel or System Preferences menu. Adjust the display settings on both your laptop and TV as needed to optimize the screen mirroring experience. You may need to enable "Extend" mode instead of "Duplicate" mode if you want to use both screens simultaneously. Close any unnecessary apps or windows on your laptop to free up resources and improve performance during screen mirroring. If you're having trouble getting the HDMI connection to work, try restarting both your laptop and TV, or checking for software updates on either device. You may also need to adjust the resolution or refresh rate settings in the Display Settings menu to ensure compatibility between your laptop and TV.

Turn on your streaming device and select the input source corresponding to the HDMI port you just connected it to using the device's remote control or menu settings (this may vary depending on the specific device). Power on your TV and navigate to the input source you just selected. The image from your streaming device should now be displayed on the TV screen.
