Excellent choice
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had read a lot of reviews on this tv (mainly from the Best Buy site). I was a little apprehensive about buying it especially after a few people had posted they had problems with the tv rebooting regularly. After two visits to our local Best Buy, I decided to gamble and buy it. I’m glad I did. The color is vibrant and detailed and the tv was easy to set up and is working flawlessly. The Sony name has never let me down.

Sony Bravia 8
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am very pleased with this product. I am one that does adapt well to change. I typically steal away from Google and Sony products simply because I am not familiar with them. This purchase has changed my mind completely. The picture is perfectly clear and navigating through Google features is seamless and quick. I would recommend this TV to family and friends

Simply Mesmerizing
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I owned a Sony from 2009. A XBR LCD model. Great tv. I needed to update. I was sure I was going to go with an LG. Am I ever glad I didn't. The picture and sound are absolutely awesome. My wife told me I did good! 4K watching is mesmerizing. 55 inch is a perfect size to replace our older 40 inch in our bedroom. And it was on sale. If your in the market for a new tv I strongly suggest you give this model a check out. We love this thing. SO glad I bought it.

Posted .Thank you for the review, MatthewW!
We’re so glad you're enjoying the amazing picture quality of your new BRAVIA 8. It’s also great to hear that the sound exceeded your expectations! That "better than expected" audio is thanks to our Acoustic Surface Audio+ technology, which actually vibrates the screen itself to act as the speaker. This ensures the sound comes from exactly where the action is happening.
Thank you for choosing Sony!

Posted .Hi PhillipE,
Thank you for this wonderful feedback! It's so helpful to hear your thoughts on the K-55XR80 TV.
It brings us great joy to hear that you bought two for your home and are happy with the great quality picture and sound!
We put a lot of work into the K-55XR80, which is part of our BRAVIA 8 line, to deliver a fantastic experience. It uses an OLED screen for incredible contrast, the powerful XR Processor for a clear picture and Acoustic Surface Audio+ so the sound comes right from the screen.
We appreciate you choosing Sony!

Open-Box Purchase
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My partner and I bought this as an open-box item in "excellent" condition. The sound/image quality is exactly what we were looking for and we were able to stay within our desired budget. Definitely recommend for those who want or need a replacement TV but don't want to spend above a certain price range.
I would recommend this to a friendA Very Balanced and Performant TV.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very balanced quality TV and display. The Google TV OS is just great and probably my favorite TV software. It is not the brightest Oled, but plenty bright for my purposes and a noticeable upgrade from previous Bravia sets in a similar class. I personally chose this over the LG G4 after comparing them both for my purposes and after tweaking their respective settings for a more balanced picture for movies, shows, and gaming. I gave up the extra hz performance and peak brightness of the G4 for much better color balance, better gradient handling, overall processing quality and better OS (imo).

Posted .Thank you for sharing your fantastic review, KrisO!
We're so pleased to hear that you're enjoying the balanced picture quality of your new BRAVIA 8 television. It's especially rewarding to know that the Google TV OS has become your favorite TV software. We designed it to be user-friendly and seamless, so your feedback truly validates our efforts.
We also deeply appreciate your detailed comparison with the LG G4. Your comments about choosing the BRAVIA 8 for its better color balance, gradient handling, and overall processing quality are invaluable. It shows that the specific features we focus on, like our XR Processor, are making a real difference in the viewing experience for discerning customers like yourself.
Thank you again for choosing Sony and for sharing your experience.

Sony Bravia from Best Buy, a good choice!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really like my Sony Bravia Google tv. I’m not use to having so many choices of apps. The color and sharpness of the picture is amazing. The sound isn’t bad but I’m looking to get a better sound bar. The people they sent to hook everything up were great. Very helpful. All in all a good choice.

Some issues.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This TV while it has a good picture has some very strange idiosyncrasies that cause it to just shut down without any warning, and you have to figure out some weird AI trick to get it to come back on. If this continues to happen it will have to be returned to the store. And we'll try something else.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from SonyListens
Posted .Hi PatrickG,
We’re sorry to hear about these power issues. To fix this, please try a power reset by unplugging the TV for 60 seconds and ensure your firmware is updated to the latest version. We also recommend disabling "Eco" or "Idle TV Standby" settings to prevent unexpected shutdowns.
Thanks for choosing Sony.
Best regards,

Great TV
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We like that the picture quality does not change, it looks good from all angles, even if you are watching more from the side. We also like no trim around the edge our old tv had that. The picture is nice and crisp. We looked at many tvs and this is a great tv in our price range. We would definately recommend.

Sony
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The TV is great. The only thing I don’t care for is that the remote control has no numbers to select for TV channels. You have to scan through all the channels. To me that’s not user-friendly.
