Asked by Silver.
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.

- A:Answer Hello D, Thank you for considering Sony products! We appreciate your question and are here to assist you.

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: QuestionDoes this tv have a better picture in highly lighted room or dark room.sony 65 inch tv class Bravia xr8b oled 4k hdr google tv
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer Hi there! Thank you for your question regarding the performance of the Sony BRAVIA XR8B in various lighting conditions. The BRAVIA XR8B features a high-performance OLED panel which provides an exceptional picture in both bright and dark settings, though its inherent strengths lie in low-light environments. Here is a breakdown of its performance: - Dark Rooms (Where it Excels): Due to the nature of OLED technology, the BRAVIA XR8B achieves absolute black and infinite contrast. This means that in a dark room, details in shadows are preserved, and colors pop dramatically against a truly black background. This is where the TV's performance is truly unmatched. - Highly Lighted Rooms (Excellent Performance): The BRAVIA XR8B is designed with a high-luminance OLED panel and a temperature sensor. This technology allows the TV to precisely control light for greater color and contrast in highlights, resulting in brighter pictures than previous OLED generations. This allows it to perform very decently and deliver a great image even in a bright room. Here is our recommendation: While the BRAVIA XR8B performs beautifully in bright rooms, if your primary goal is to have a TV that excels in highly bright environments (e.g., a room with large windows receiving direct, intense sunlight), you may want to consider our Mini LED models. For superior peak brightness to combat intense glare, we recommend checking out our Sony BRAVIA 5 or BRAVIA 9 Mini LED models. We hope this helps you choose the perfect TV for your viewing space and thanks for considering Sony! Regards, Dominick

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
