Pricey but great entry point for an OLED TV.
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A little pricey, but at the same time this was a great way to enter the OLED market. The only thing I haven't been fond of is Sony's GUI. Always feel like they could do better.

Good TV
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We are very pleased with our Sony Bravia OLED 55" TV. It is bright and clear. It has a port so that we can attach our computer and also use it as a giant monitor. It was quite a challenge to hook up the computer and the sound system together and figure out the configurations with the different remote controls! I found one YouTube video that gave me a tip that I needed. You need an HDMI cable and an optical digital audio cable. The sound seemed good, but we use our stereo speakers.

Why no hdmi 2.1?
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Gorgeous picture and easy to set up and use. It's hard to believe that sony would release this tv without hdmi 2.1 to make the most out of the upcoming gaming systems. Should I play my sony playstation 5 on an lg? Looks like it

Posted .Hello Nilla, We are glad that you like the picture quality of your new Sony Bravia OLED TV. There is much confusion about the HDMI versions and concerns about compatibility. For this reason, we do not promote the HDMI versions incorporated on many of our products. Instead, we advertise the features of a product that are associated with a particular HDMI version. The A8H supports the eARC, which is one of the features that are specified in the HDMI 2.1 standard: https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/articles/00246472. We value your input and appreciate your feedback. Thank you for choosing Sony! Vincent
