  • QuestionWhat’s the difference between this and the Bravia 5

    Asked by Rick.

    • Answer Hi Rick, We appreciate your question. We're happy to clarify that for you! When comparing the K-55XR8B and the BRAVIA 5, you're looking at two great TVs, but the true distinction lies in the core display technology and what each is intended to be the best at. The K-55XR8B is an OLED TV. The key advantage here is that every single pixel is self-illuminating. This means when a pixel is supposed to show black, it turns completely off. This unique capability gives the XR8B perfect black levels and virtually infinite contrast. For cinematic viewing, especially in a dimmer room, the OLED is unmatched because of the incredible detail it maintains in dark shadows. In contrast, the BRAVIA 5 is a Mini LED television. While it still uses our top-tier processing, it's a traditional LCD screen with a radically improved backlight made of thousands of tiny LEDs. The critical difference here is brightness. Because it uses a powerful, dedicated backlight, the BRAVIA 5 can achieve significantly higher peak brightness levels than the OLED. For additional specifications of the XR8B, please visit the following link: https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/televisions-projectors-oled-tvs-android-/k-55xr8b/specifications So, in short: the XR8B is better for contrast and perfect blacks, while the BRAVIA 5 is better for superior brightness. Both are solid choices; your final decision will ultimately depend on the specific features you prioritize and, of course, your budget. Thanks for considering Sony products! Best regards, Estefany

  • QuestionDoes this TV have screen dimming to view easier at night?

    Asked by Charles.

    • Answer Hi Charles, That is a great question about viewing the BRAVIA XR8B comfortably at night. Yes, the TV is equipped with a specific Picture Mode designed for a softer, less intense viewing experience, which is ideal for nighttime. The BRAVIA XR8B features a "Calm" Picture Mode. This setting is engineered to produce soft colors and gentle contrast, specifically making it suitable for displaying calming and relaxing content in low-light environments, like viewing at night.

  • QuestionCan a sony DVD player be hooked up to the TV with cables? What inputs are there?

    Asked by Anonymous.

    • Answer Hi there, Thank you for your question! Connecting a DVD player to the Sony - BRAVIA XR8B is certainly possible, provided the player utilizes an HDMI connection. The TV is equipped with four separate HDMI ports, giving you multiple options to plug in your DVD player and other devices simultaneously. Using HDMI ensures you receive the best possible video and audio quality from your source. For comprehensive details on all the connection ports available on the back of the television, please check: https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/res/manuals/5057/c9d7881a9ee15e1d6f0efc6f28a510b3/50577391M.pdf Thank you for considering Sony!

  • QuestionCan this tv be mounted on a onkron mobile stand

    Asked by Anonymous.

    • Answer Thank you for contacting Sony. To confirm compatibility with any ONKRON mobile stand, you need to check two main specs on the stand's description against the TV's requirements: -The VESA Mounting Pattern for the BRAVIA 8B, 55" is 300 mm x 300mm. -The Weight of the BRAVIA 8B, 55" (without its factory desktop stand) is -approximately 37.7 lbs (17.1 kg). We recommend you compare these two specifications with the features listed for the specific ONKRON mobile stand you are interested in purchasing. If the stand supports VESA 300mm x 300mm and has a capacity of at least 40 lbs, it should be compatible. We appreciate your interest in Sony products.

  • QuestionCan I use the legs to place them in the center stand section?

    Asked by IsmaelH.

    • Answer Hi Id, The feet (legs) on the BRAVIA 8 (XR80B) TV are designed to be placed in one of two positions: a wide position or a slightly narrower position. While the legs can be set up in a narrower stance compared to the very wide-set standard configuration, the standard detachable legs do not offer a single, central pedestal stand option. If your TV cabinet is quite narrow and the two provided positions are still too wide, you would need to purchase an aftermarket universal TV pedestal stand that attaches to the VESA mounting holes on the back of the TV. Thanks for choosing Sony. Best regards, Eliab

  • QuestionDOES THIS TV WORKS WITH 240 VOLATGE IN OTHER COUNTRIES LIKE INDIA?

    Asked by Krishna.

    • Answer Thank you for contacting Sony, Krishna. The ability of a TV to work with 240V depends entirely on the specific regional version you purchase. Models sold in regions like India, Europe, or other 220V–240V countries are designed to operate within the AC 220V–240V range and will work directly. Models sold in the USA/Canada are often designed to primarily operate on AC 120V power. While some specific models may be labeled for 110V–240V operation, we always strongly recommend checking the label on the back of your specific TV unit near the power cord input. To ensure safety and proper operation in India (which uses 220V to 240V): Look for the "Power Requirements" or "AC Input" specifications on the sticker on the back of your K-55XR8B. If the label says AC 100V–240V, it is dual-voltage compatible and will work with a simple plug adapter. If the label only says AC 120V, you must use a high-quality step-down transformer to avoid damaging the TV. Additionally, please be aware that TVs purchased outside of India may have limitations regarding regional features like the local DTV tuner standard (broadcasting) and the warranty, which is usually only valid in the country of purchase. We appreciate your interest in Sony products.

    Asked by Goose.

    • Answer Hi Goose, That's a great question! The Sony - BRAVIA XR8B is very similar to the BRAVIA 8 (XR80) in terms of panel technology, as both models feature OLED displays for excellent color, contrast, and viewing angles.
