Comments on SONY PICTURES CORE for Android

★★★★★ Ivo Santos · Apr 18, 2022
Wonderful experience! With a 500mbps connection I'm getting Imax enhanced Pure stream content with Atmos sound quality on my living room. The detail, depth and richness of the sound is simply astonishing and immersive. The only thing lacking in comparison to other services is a broader list of movies, but it seems it's being updated and more movies are being added on a monthly basis. Bra via Core is to this day the go-to service if you want to have TRUE cinematic experience in the comfort of your home.
★★★★★ Bill Koch · Sep 6, 2022
A home run. Out of the park. This app came with my new 65" OLED Sony TV. If you have the bandwidth you engage Pure stream. This gives you a picture that rivals Ultra 4k Bluray discs. It bests Netflix or Amazon 4k streaming by miles. The IMAX enhanced movies are terrific. Now it does have limited content, and it lists itself as experimental, but... this is where streaming needs to go if content is ever going to catch up with what our TVs are capable of. The go-to app to stream from.
★★★★☆ Scorpion King · Feb 11, 2026
If you are an Audio - Surround sound lover, you must watch a movie on this OTT platform to feel the original DTS surround sound.... Mind-blowing audio and video quality
★☆☆☆☆ Joshua Hibbs · Feb 17, 2023
Worked once now won't open, crashes either due to network error or update required. Tried everything but it still doesn't work
★★☆☆☆ Fidel Argueta · May 23, 2026
Unable to watch on this sony pictures core app movies, every time I want to watch get "network connection lost" message... even called customer service could not help me at all, indicated to open a ticket for additional support and then when try opening a ticket I get "error message" on the customer support website SMH, shame this don't work on my bra via tv. the least quality solid and other apps work for now.
★☆☆☆☆ HARISH KUMAR · May 9, 2025
Extremely disappointed with Sony Offering. I bought Sony's top of the line, flagship TV Sony Bra via 9 K-85XR90 at a premium price point. But, Sony offered me with only 10 free movie streaming credit on Sony Picture Core. Definitely should offer more.
★☆☆☆☆ S Manikandarajan Pillai · Nov 7, 2025
Extremely good quality streaming but the IMAX enabled movies are not in IMAX format. Even if I want to purchase the film I cannot trust the app to deliver in IMAX format
