    Love our Sony 55" BRAVIA 8 II OLED 4K TV!! Could not be happier with the with picture and sound. Also, the glare reduction on the screen is perfect for our home and window glares are no longer seen when the picture is on. Our first larger size TV was a Sony Bravia 20 years. When we wanted to update tried a different brand and was not satisfied. Went back to Sony Bravia and are Sony forever now!

    Refurbished Sony - 55" Class BRAVIA 8 II OLED TV

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I got a refurbished version of a Sony 55" Class BRAVIA 8 II OLED 4K UHD Smart Google TV. It was listed for $1,100, and I asked the store why over the phone, and they didn't see anything wrong with it. I immediately bought it before they changed the price to one for an "excellent" condition version of the TV. I picked it up and got the 5-year warranty just in case. It took hours before I finally realized why it was marked down, but it was so minor that it didn't make a difference in me wanting to keep the TV. I could have gotten an LG C5 or Samsung, but for the price I paid, this TV was light-years better than I could have anticipated owning. The processor is better than the one I had with my LG CX and feels very premium. If you don't like it being so "4K," switch to Cinema, and it still pops without the sensory overload. Even at face value, I highly recommend this Sony TV.

    I needed a new TV researched a lot and finally bought this beautiful TV the picture is basically PERFECT. I bought mine at the Tustin location where they have all TV’s displayed very nice so you can judge no matter what brand you’re buying. The sound even without a sound bar is amazing. I can’t imagine what’s it’s going to be like when I do plug my soundbar in and use it

    This review will sound fanboyish but it is what it is. This TV is fantastic. It is the first TV that I've purchased in my life where the picture has been perfect out of the box. No need to tweak for this and that.. its just ready to go and looks great doing it. I've tried LG, Samsung and even Panasonic this year and this TV just has something the others don't.. extreme clarity. The picture is just clean, no noise, no extra image grain.. just nice and sharp, bright and full of color. True it is the dimmer of the 4 Premium OLED TVs this year but you wouldn't know it. It handles dark scenes with aplomb and bright scenes can sear your eyeballs. Game mode is also great. No dimming, super colorful and punchy. True it only has 2 HDMI 2.1 ports but the internet will tell you that you HAVE to have 4. Not everyone does.. unless you have an Xbox Series AND a PlayStation 5. Switch 2 can use one of the 2.0 ports without any issue. Give this TV a try.. you won't send it back.
