The SONY Square gets 3 stars in comparison to the Wonder Lab. This rating is based solely on the differences between SONY Square to SONY Wonder Lab. Their target audience has shifted more so to techy adults instead of techy families.The SONY Square is only a Show Room of the latest specific themed items or products. The showcase per theme lasts for about 4-6 weeks. This is great for adults who are interested into seeing how certain tech things work but it is definitely NOT like the Wonder Lab that was super cool for both adults and children. If you have a family with children, the SONY Square is great for their short attention span for about 10-15mins. Afterward, they won't really have much to do. On the bright side though, there are certain themes that can be kid friendly but you need to follow them on social media to get those dates. They also have artist signings which is also pretty cool.
For any adults that are interested into tech, this is a great store for you! Staff are well educated about their items and products. 4 Stars for the SONY Square and their...
Read moreFor those who lament the passing of Sony Wonder up at Madison and 56th, this space may not have the full breadth of options, but it's just as fun. This space is all things Sony, and with a wonderful staff who are always ready to assist or offer advice, it provides hands on access to the latest Sony products and games. You can play the latest Playstation games on a wall-sized screen, and put a larger-than-life beat down on your friends; or interact with the latest iteration of the Aibo robotic dog; or maybe just check out how good your favorite songs sound when heard on the latest Sony headphones.
But as fun as the products are, this place shines when they go beyond the products. They host great events such as photography seminars which allow you to test the cameras, video game meet-ups, game creation discussions with the creators, or show behind the scenes documentaries that detail how your favorite content was made. Best of all......

Then in june of 2017 (8 months later) it totally died. Customer service sent a repair tech out and they replaced the motherboard. Worked fine for 11 months now i am back in the same boat. After wasting 2 hours of my time on the Customer service line they have scheduled another tech to come out. I have not even had the tv for 2 full years and this the second repair on it.
