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 5 months ago 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: QuestionDoes this TV have variable audio output and what type of connection is it?

Asked 2 weeks ago by Dave.

• A:Answer Hello Dave, Thank you for considering Sony products! We appreciate your inquiry about the variable audio output and connection types on the K65XR8B TV and are happy to assist you. The Bravia 8 provides Variable Audio Output through its Optical Digital output and HDMI eARC/ARC ports. This means that if you connect an external sound system, you can often synchronize and control the volume levels directly. The K65XR8B also supports Bluetooth connectivity for a wireless audio experience. Please note, this model does not have a 3.5mm analog headphone jack, so for wired analog setups, a Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC) connected to the Optical port is required.

Q: Questionwhat is the difference between 65 bravia 8 oled and bravia xr8b oled

Asked 4 months ago 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: Questionis the TV AI controlled

Asked 2 weeks ago by Ed.

• A:Answer Hi Ed, The Sony BRAVIA XR8B is indeed powered for precision through its integrated XR Processor™. This system utilizes an advanced AI scene recognition feature that detects and analyzes visual data with flawless accuracy. Rather than being "controlled" in a literal sense, the TV uses this intelligence to optimize the picture in real-time, adjusting every frame to achieve the ultimate level of realism based on what you are watching. Beyond just the visuals, this AI-driven approach extends to your audio experience to ensure you never have to deal with muffled voices again. The new Voice Zoom 3™ technology employs AI machine learning to specifically recognize human dialogue within a soundscape. It can intelligently amplify or reduce volume levels so that even whispered conversations remain loud and clear. We hope you find this information helpful, and thanks for considering Sony! Regards, Dominick
