A: Hi Andrey657, Thank you for your question. The key difference between the Sony - BRAVIA 8 (55") and the BRAVIA 8 II (55") lies in the panel technology. The BRAVIA 8 uses a traditional OLED panel, while the BRAVIA 8 II features a QD-OLED (Quantum Dot OLED) panel. QD-OLED combines the perfect blacks of OLED with the added benefit of quantum dots, which deliver higher peak brightness, a wider color range, and more vivid, lifelike images. In addition, the BRAVIA 8 II includes Sony's AI Scene Recognition system powered by the XR processor. This technology analyzes each scene in real time and optimizes brightness, contrast, and color for a more natural and immersive picture. In short, the BRAVIA 8 offers excellent OLED picture quality, while the BRAVIA 8 II takes it a step further with greater brightness, richer colors, and advanced AI processing for an enhanced viewing experience. We hope this answers your question, and thank you for considering Sony products! Regards, Dominick

Sony 55" BRAVIA 8 II OLED 4K
Love our Sony 55" BRAVIA 8 II OLED 4K TV!! Could not be happier with the with picture and sound. Also, the glare reduction on the screen is perfect for our home and window glares are no longer seen when the picture is on. Our first larger size TV was a Sony Bravia 20 years. When we wanted to update tried a different brand and was not satisfied. Went back to Sony Bravia and are Sony forever now!

Refurbished Sony - 55" Class BRAVIA 8 II OLED TV
I got a refurbished version of a Sony 55" Class BRAVIA 8 II OLED 4K UHD Smart Google TV. It was listed for $1,100, and I asked the store why over the phone, and they didn't see anything wrong with it. I immediately bought it before they changed the price to one for an "excellent" condition version of the TV. I picked it up and got the 5-year warranty just in case. It took hours before I finally realized why it was marked down, but it was so minor that it didn't make a difference in me wanting to keep the TV. I could have gotten an LG C5 or Samsung, but for the price I paid, this TV was light-years better than I could have anticipated owning. The processor is better than the one I had with my LG CX and feels very premium. If you don't like it being so "4K," switch to Cinema, and it still pops without the sensory overload. Even at face value, I highly recommend this Sony TV.
