There is also an option to adjust the Sound mode effect as well as Sound customization to adjust the sound quality for each sound mode in models with Sound mode. that can be found under [Settings] — [Display & Sound].
Smart, powerful, and sleek, the BRAVIA X85J 4K HDR LED TV is designed for all your favorite content. Powered by the 4K HDR Processor X1 and TRILUMINOS PRO, picture quality comes to life with billions of colors and realistic contrast.

You can tell there is a difference in quality of the picture between different 4K TVs. The movie quality is excellent. It's just better than other 4K TVs.

Out of the box the Left button in the d-pad of the remote didn't work. Spent over 1.5 hours on chat with customer support doing the most ridiculous troubleshooting steps before they were convinced the button actually didn't work. I understand that things are defective on occasion and I wasn't even mad that the remote was broken. But the amount of time and effort it took on my part to prove that it wasn't working was just unacceptable and I will never buy another Sony product again - because of how bad Customer Support is.
