Sony - 65" Class BRAVIA 8 II OLED 4K UHD Smart Google TV with Gemini (2025)

I recently purchased the Sony BRAVIA 8 II 65-inch TV from Best Buy, and the entire experience—from purchase to daily use—has been exceptional. The picture quality is absolutely stunning. The QD-OLED panel delivers deep blacks, vibrant and accurate colors, and incredible clarity. Movies and shows look cinematic, and even regular TV content appears noticeably sharper and more lifelike. Motion handling is smooth, making it excellent for sports and gaming, and the brightness and contrast hold up well in different lighting conditions. The Google TV interface is fast, intuitive, and easy to navigate, with quick access to all major streaming apps. Sony’s image processing really stands out, and the built-in sound quality is surprisingly strong—dialogue is clear and immersive without immediately needing a soundbar. I also want to highlight the excellent customer experience at Best Buy. The staff was knowledgeable and helpful in explaining the differences between models, and the purchasing process was smooth. Delivery was on time, the TV arrived in perfect condition, and setup was straightforward. It’s reassuring to buy a premium TV from a retailer that stands behind its products. Overall, this TV is worth every penny. Between Sony’s top-tier performance and Best Buy’s great service, this was a five-star experience all around. I highly recommend the Sony BRAVIA 8 II to anyone looking for a premium 65-inch TV.

[Employee of bestbuy] This TV is absolutely amazing and this will be my one and only TV for years to come. The brightness is insane and lowering it to minimum is a must if you are a night time youtube watcher before bed. However, during the day and for all other experiences, this TV is amazing. The OLED blacks are super dark and the colors are vivid. I got this TV for gaming on my PS5 and for the future PS6 eventually. 120 fps and VRR are noticeable right off the bat. Lots of customization in the settings to make it how you want. Crazy TV. Paired with a good soundbar, i’m set for a longtime.

Product was an open-box excellent. I basically bought a new tv at a massive discount. Picture is gorgeous. Can't beat that Sony processing. It's my bedroom tv, so the 'brightness' is just fine. Sometimes even too bright. Colors are gorgeous. Finally got the QD-OLED I've been pining for. Overall, excellent product.

I recently upgraded from my nearly 10 year old 55” Sony X900E to my first OLED TV. I was deciding between the LG G5 and the Bravia 8 II. I ultimately went with the 65” Bravia 8 II because my experience with Sony TVs have always been great. It’s no different this time. Sony nailed it, yet again. If you haven’t owned or experienced an OLED TV before, words and pictures really don’t do it justice. The sharpness, clarity, contrast and black levels are just something that a backlit LED cannot match. OLEDs are just on another level. It makes everything look amazing on the screen. I have my TV in a bright living room, and brightness is not an issue with this TV, which is something I was concerned about with it being an OLED. If you want the best TV available, this is the one to get.

I own a number of Sony televisions but this one is my favorite so far. Bravia 8 Mk2 picks up right where the A95L left off with brighter highlights and better near black handling. This is made possible by Samsung's 4th generation QD OLED panel which offers more headroom. This is a more efficient panel but Sony has still tuned it judiciously. This is a good thing because it means the Bravia 8 II should be evergreen and allow it to age gracefully with little degradation. However, be advised the included remote is not backlit as one might expect. All manufacturers are going backwards when it comes to remotes and I don't know why! Do yourself a favor and purchase a replacement A90J or A95L remote separately to have a more premium feeling. If Sony were to release this in 77" this TV would be a lot more popular. A95L is still a fantastic option if you want a larger size. A glossy QD OLED with Sony processing is the trifecta for image quality!
