    Terrible Sound Setup

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

    The picture is outstanding but unfortunately the audio set up is terrible. Trying to pair a bluetooth device and sound won't synch. When I go to settings and manually sync, it holds only until the tv is turned off. The entire process has to be done every time the tv is turned back on. I finally got frustrated and just used the tv speakers and then they were out of sync with the picture. Too much work. Returning and purchasing an LG again which didn't have these issues

      Hi ScottK,

      We sincerely apologize for the difficulties you've encountered with the audio setup on your BRAVIA 8. We understand how frustrating it can be when sound doesn’t sync correctly with Bluetooth devices, or when the TV speakers are out of alignment with the visuals. This is far from the experience we intended for you. If you still have your unit, we encourage you to follow the troubleshooting steps below so we can help identify and resolve the audio issue:

      To resolve the Bluetooth syncing issue, we suggest verifying the settings to confirm that your TV and Bluetooth device are correctly paired. If the manual sync settings do not remain effective after the TV is powered off, it may be beneficial to look for any available firmware updates for your TV that could potentially fix this problem.
      https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/televisions-projectors-oled-tvs-android-/k-55xr80/downloads

      Regarding the audio being out of sync with the picture when using the TV speakers, please refer to the following links:

    GoogleTV Makes Latest Bravia Disappointing

    Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    TV has a fantastic picture, as you might expect from a Sony Bravia. But the GoogleTV integration is gratuitous and non-performant. Does not sync audio and video when using optical connection to a Sony receiver. Poor sync between audio/video is also present when using HDMI with or without the eARC interface - workaround requires using a Developer setting to limit background processes to 2 or 3 - setting reverts to default after restart (which is frequent because of auto-update). Overall: Boo!

    I got the Sony Bravia 8 because it has a reputation for being a really good gaming tee but unfortunately it wasn't. One thing that Disturbed me the most is every single time it detected a TV. It would go straight into Dolby vision and when it's in dilby vision it wouldn't allow me to make any kind of adjustments with contrast or brightness or color or anything. At the same time I had to do an a lot of adjustments in order to regulate the picture settings for SDR and HDR. It was a lot of work and not worth it. So I exchanged it for the LG G4 with which I'm extremely happy!

      Hi Yogitim, thank you for taking the time to share your experience with the Sony - Bravia 8. We're sorry to hear it didn't align with what you were hoping for, especially in terms of gaming and picture control. Your feedback is incredibly important to us.
      Regarding Dolby Vision, this format is designed to automatically optimize picture settings for the best possible image based on the content. Because of this, certain manual adjustments are limited. We understand this can be frustrating, especially if you prefer more hands-on control. We also hear your concerns about the effort required to fine-tune SDR and HDR settings, and we appreciate you highlighting that. We truly hope to have the opportunity to earn your trust again in the future. Thank you for considering Sony! Best regards, -Dominick Sony_US
