Sony Internet TV with Google TV Review Part 2

This is part 2 of a 20 minute review. This part is linked as a reponse to part 1. Part 1 includes: – still shots of device and remote – regular device startup – quick device startup – device shut down – overview of main navigation – web page navigation – Hulu blockade – Netflix app Part 2 includes: – Pandora app – quick search using the magnifying glass button – quick search for video – quick search for music – YouTube leanback – play a DVD – play video and music on USB flash drive Note: I do not have cable TV, satellite (eg, Dish network), or a DVR. I only use Google TV for online content, physical discs, and local media files. I made this review about 24 hours after receiving the Google TV set top box. The Sony model number is NSZ-GT1. The review is long (20 mins) because I go through each of the operations that were important to me. I shot video of my TV while using the Sony Internet TV. There are also a few still shots of the device and remote. Hopefully this overview will help you make a purchase decision. I complete love this Sony device and the Google TV application / OS. I paid for the device with my own money. The reason I leaned toward the Sony (9) rather than the Logitech Revue (9) is for a couple reasons: (a) I don’t have a blu-ray player, so for 0 I get a blu-ray player, (b) I wanted a small remote, not a keyboard (the Logitech comes with a small keyboard, and you pay 9 for a small remote), (c) I’ve had great past experiences with Sony products

  1. Your review was helpful thank you. how to purge the system of visited sites called clearing the cache I missed. Good pace on your video

  2. It looks cool,but i got a 21inch Imac,i can get the same programs plus more.i like sony and google both,can you get facebook and play farmville and fronterville,i hear there is no flash.

  3. @arkansasrazorbackfan there are three options for buying a google TV product..
    1 Buying the Sony tv that has googletv Inbuilt.
    2 Buying a Sony Google internet – Bluray kinda box
    3 the logintech Google TV
    the least have prety similar functions, but well, just google it 🙂

  4. Thinking of buying soon but worried about the 60hz? Will it affect the picture that much? The set plus keyboard/remote plus features may make up for that for me. Please let me know, my store only has one within a few hundred mile radius.

    If I should get it seperate (google tv + blue ray) whats the best tv at best buy to get around this price range?

  5. Sony shit that blocks all videos Shakira…
    The good news is that Shakira is going to change record label!

    Mierda de Sony que bloquea todos los videos de Shakira..
    La buena noticia es que Shakira va a cambiar de sello discográfico!
