Smart tv sony 43 inch beeldscherm 2018
Sony’s TV range is generally respected for strong picture processing and natural motion, but “Sony Smart TV” is too vague to benchmark confidently—screen size, model year, resolution, and panel type make a huge difference. At €100, the price looks fair against recent comparable asking prices: the median is €103, with the middle half spanning €57–€204. It is neither an obvious bargain nor an ambitious ask without the missing specifications.
The worthwhile angle is Sony’s typically convincing image quality, especially with broadcast and streamed content, plus a generally polished interface. Before buying, confirm the exact model number and screen size, then test cold booting, every HDMI input, Wi-Fi streaming, remote response, speakers, and the panel for dead pixels, uneven backlighting, or OLED burn-in. Verify that the stand and remote are included. If it is a working 4K set of reasonable size, €100 can be sensible; if it is small or notably old, negotiate.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Sony emerged from the ruins of post-World War II Japan, founded on May 7, 1946, by Masaru Ibuka and Akio Morita as Tokyo Tsushin Kogyo K.K. in Tokyo's Nihonbashi district. Starting with radio repairs and Japan's first magnetic tape recorder, the duo secured transistor licensing from Bell Labs, pioneering the TR-55 transistor radio in 1955. Renamed Sony Corporation in 1958—from the Latin "sonus" for sound—the brand symbolized Japan's ascent from cheap imitations to innovative leadership, fueled by Ibuka's engineering prowess and Morita's global marketing vision.
Sony's hi-fi legacy spans headphones, amplifiers, speakers, turntables, and DACs, alongside landmark formats like the Compact Disc in 1982 and Blu-ray. Iconic products include the Walkman for portable audio revolution and Trinitron televisions, blending consumer accessibility with cutting-edge tech. Today, offerings like the Signature Series headphones and ES amplifiers target discerning listeners seeking refined soundstaging and dynamic range.
Positioned as a mid-to-high-end powerhouse, Sony commands respect among knowledgeable buyers for blending mass-market reliability with premium performance, outpacing many pure audiophile brands in innovation and value. Far from vintage relic or niche boutique, it dominates with forward-thinking engineering, holding strong market share in headphones and streaming ecosystems.
