Q: Questionwhat is the difference between 65 bravia 8 oled and bravia xr8b oled
Asked by doug1.
- A:Answer Hi doug1, The BRAVIA 8 OLED and the BRAVIA XR8B OLED are essentially the same core TV, sharing the same OLED panel, 4K resolution, and XR Processor. The primary differences lie in the included features and promotional bundles: the XR8B is a specialized retailer model that typically does not include the Sony Pictures Core movie credits or the promotional package, and it may lack the XR Contrast Booster software feature present in the standard BRAVIA 8. Visually, the picture quality is designed to be highly similar, making the XR8B a strong value option for those who do not require the extra software or promotional credits. Thanks for choosing Sony. Best regards, Eliab

Q: QuestionHi i was thinking about buying a Sony Bravia 8 or xr8b and was wondering if the xr8b has a QD-OLED panel and which one would be a better for watching movies and playing PS5?
Asked by SB.
- A:Answer Hi SB, Thank you for your interest in the Sony BRAVIA 8 and XR8B! To clarify, neither of these models feature a QD-OLED panel, both use our premium OLED technology. However, if you're specifically looking for a QD-OLED display, you might want to check out our latest BRAVIA 8 II, which does include that advanced QD-OLED technology. As for which TV is better for watching movies and playing on your PS5, both the BRAVIA 8 and XR8B deliver outstanding performance. They share the same gaming features such as 4K/120fps support, Variable Refresh Rate (VRR), Auto Low Latency Mode (ALLM), Dolby Vision for gaming and HDR tone mapping—ensuring a smooth and immersive gaming experience. That said, the BRAVIA 8 includes an XR Contrast Booster, which enhances brightness and depth in darker scenes, giving it a slight edge in overall picture quality, especially for movies. We hope this helps you make the best choice for your setup, and thanks for considering Sony! Regards, Dominick

Q: QuestionI intend buying this tv in US for use in Nigeria. Does it operate on dual voltage?
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer Thank you for contacting Sony. Sony televisions manufactured for the U.S. and Canadian markets are officially rated to operate on 120V AC. If you plan to use this model in a country with a different voltage standard, we suggest using a high-quality, grounded power transformer to protect your TV’s internal components. It is also important to note that this model uses the ATSC digital tuner standard for North America. If the local broadcasting system uses a different standard, you will likely need a compatible external set-top box or streaming device to watch local channels. Additionally, please keep in mind that Sony warranties are region-specific, and a television purchased in the U.S. generally carries a warranty valid only within the United States. We appreciate your interest in Sony products.

Q: QuestionDoes it work with spectrum app
Asked by Biged.
- A:Answer Thank you for contacting Sony, Biged. Currently, the Spectrum TV app is not natively available for direct download on Sony BRAVIA TVs with Google TV, due to a business decision by Spectrum to limit which platforms they make their app available on. However, you can still easily enjoy the service by using external streaming devices (like a Roku or Apple TV) plugged into an HDMI port, as the app is available on those devices, or by casting the Spectrum TV app directly from your smartphone or tablet. This allows you to take full advantage of the brilliant picture quality of the XR8B while still accessing your Spectrum content seamlessly. We appreciate your interest in Sony products.
