Amazon Prime on Sony Bravia Smart TV


Amazon offers its customers one month free prime membership which gets converted into paid membership after free trial experts. You are free to cancel membership during free trail period or anytime during your membership. Being a Amazon prime member also makes you eligible for special prices for products on Amazon and also free next day delivery.

Netflix on the other hand does not offer any free trial membership unless you have been contacted directly by Netflix.

Both Netflix and Prime Video have Smart TV App and Android TV Apps. These apps would appear featured Samsung Smart TV Apps, Sony Bravia Smart TV Apps, Sony Android TV App and on other brands like LG Android TV, Philipps and Panasonic. Android Tv would allow downloading Netflix app / Prime Video TV app from Google play store whereas Samsung smart tv would offer download through smart hub.

Sony Bravia TV Remote for Android TV comes with dedicated Netflix button. Amazon Fire stick and Roku on the other hand have dedicated Prime Video buttons on remote control.

Well this is debatable based on the points we have highlighted above. If you order products from Amazon frequently then Prime Video membership makes you eligible for free next day delivery. Also you get better offers on most products than non prime members on Amazon.

Netflix on other hand has edge on content quality and quantity. Offers multiple plans starting $5.99 so you can select the plan that suits best to you. If you can share your your Netflix account with friends and family you can share cost with up to 4 different people.
