    Bravia 8 - Great Picture

    Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This TV is one of the best pictures I have seen in a while. The peak brightness is a lot higher than the model it replaces so in a brighter room it still looks good. The screen has a low reflection so viewing for different angles is a lot easier since there is not a lot of glare. Overall, I would rate this a buy.

    We bought a 2025 Samsung 65 inch smart TV after purchasing and returning a 55 inch Sony. The Sony oicture was too dark and we couldn't adjust the light to he bright enough. The Samsung picture is great, but has too many AI features for my wide, but otherwise we are used to Samsumg products. The process for exchanging was simple and made easy.
