Disappointed
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I used to love the quality of Sony TVs, but the last one I purchased didn't last 5 years (bad tuner). But I thought that was an anomaly and I purchased this one, a more expensive model. I am disappointed with the brightness when in the cable mode. I have seen a few glitches, I think this one will have end up having tuner issues as well. This might be my last Sony.

Open Box nightmare
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Beware open box at Best Buy. This was listed as an Excellent condition product online, ordered for delivery and came with no power cord, remote or manual. Best Buy expected me to purchase these separately. I returned it. Sales associates in the stores have told me since that Open Box is a HUGE gamble. Best advice, only buy Open box if you're actually in the store and can find out the contents.

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

Posted .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.

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

Beautiful Picture, Horrible Device
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love Sony, but I cannot reccomend this product. Sad because the picture is beautiful, love the OLED and 2.1HDMI & Dolby Vision. But it constantly doesn’t even turn on! It forces me to unplug and plug it back in 2x a week. I bought it not even a month ago, and wish I had gone with an LG or something that works as advertised. Aldeady had to factory reset the TV, but still the same issues of not turning on when hitting the power button continue. Will probably be returning it since I have 60 Days. Very disappointing. It’s acting like my old Bravia which didn’t have these issues until 5 years in.

Posted .Hi TomG,
We are sorry to hear that you are experiencing issues with your Sony K55XR80. If you still have the TV, we would like to ensure that you get the best experience out of the K55XR80 TV.
To troubleshoot the issue where the K55XR80 TV does not turn on and requires you to unplug and replug it, follow these steps.
Unplug the TV power cord from the wall outlet (or from the back of the TV if the power cord is detachable), wait for two minutes, and then plug it back in. Ensure the power cord is securely connected. Using the remote control, press and hold the POWER button until the menu appears, then select "Restart."
Alternatively, navigate through the TV menu: Quick Settings → Settings → System → Restart → Restart.
Turn off the TV and disconnect all external devices such as USB drives, hard drives, and HDMI-connected devices. Turn the TV back on to see if the issue persists. If the TV works fine without the external devices, reconnect each device one at a time to identify if a particular device is causing the issue.
Also, please verify that the wall outlet is functioning by connecting another device. If the TV was connected to a power strip or surge protector, try connecting it directly to the wall outlet to rule out issues with the power strip.
Ensure your TV's firmware is up to date. This can be done through the TV settings menu. You can also check for the latest software update on this link: https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/oled-tvs-android-bravia-8-xr80-/k-55xr80/software/00346878
Should you need further assistance or if the troubleshooting steps did not resolve the issue, please contact us for help at socialsupport@am.sony.com with the following:

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!
