You don't have to worry about screen burnout, as this Google TV has 4 built in screen savers that change the screen picture.

Good Picture but prone to frequent restarts
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Pros: 1. Picture quality is good 2. Sound quality is good 3. Stand is sturdy 4. Has a game mode that dramatically reduces input latency Cons: 1. Periodically turns restarts after longer period of use (even after turning off various power saving modes) 2. Does not automatically detect when connected to gaming device and switch to game modes (which is required as latency is sufficiently increased in other picture modes) Overall, I have not been pleased with this purchase. Mainly due to the periodic restarts that frequently happens while I am enjoying content. It will freeze then restart and is good some for some time. Unfortunately this started 2 days after the return period. I will be buying a different TV to replace this one.

Purchased for ps5 pro
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great, shuts off for updates with no warning. Got this tv for the 120fps, for the ps5 pro. It’s fantastic UNTIL IT TURNS OFF MID GAME AFTER A SOFTWARE UPDATE THAT YOU WERE NOT INFORMED ABOUT! That’s my only gripe. Otherwise… so worth it!

Posted .Hi BrennanS,
We are very sorry to hear that the TV shut off unexpectedly during a critical moment due to a software update, and we understand how frustrating that can be, especially during gameplay. We highly recommend checking your TV's settings under Settings > System > Software Update and ensuring that Automatic software downloads is set to Off and that Automatic software update is also set to Off or Confirmation. This will prevent unscheduled restarts and allow you to initiate updates manually at a convenient time. We're happy to hear that outside of this issue, the 120fps performance on your BRAVIA 8 OLED for the PS5 Pro is fantastic and worth it.
Thanks for choosing Sony.
Best regards, Eliab

Posted .Hi DAVIDL, thank you for sharing your feedback and highlighting both the great picture quality and your concern with reflections on your K55XR80.
Reflections on the TV screen can sometimes occur when there are strong light sources, such as lamps or windows, positioned behind the main viewing area. This is a common characteristic for many flat-screen televisions, as the screen may reflect ambient lighting in the room.
To help minimize this effect, you can try a few adjustments:
- Position the TV so it faces away from direct light sources.
- Adjust the lighting in your room, reducing strong lights directly behind your viewing position.
- Use curtains or blinds to control sunlight if the TV is opposite a window.
- If possible, use lower-brightness or indirect lighting in the area behind the TV.
We appreciate your input, which helps us continuously improve our products and support resources. If you have further concerns or need more tips, please feel free to reach out to our support team.
Thanks again for choosing Sony and for being a valued customer!
Best regards,
Gus
