    Nice TV, got it as an open box item that was on display in my local store. Unfortunately they were not able to find the original stand to the tv but we were able to make do. Have always heard Sony was the best brand for tv’s (even when I worked for Best Buy briefly) and wanted to try one out. Has a very nice picture, well above what it would be replacing (a 16 year old Samsung) Would recommend!

    This tv has been a huge improvement and Sony is a master when it comes to making good quality TV's and this is no exception. I have this in our gaming room and mostly used for gaming and some streaming and it truly does not dissapoint. This is a well-rounded OLED TV that delivers excellent performance without the premium price of flagship models. While it's still a little on the pricier side (at least when I purchased it), it provides the deep black levels and outstanding contrast OLEDs are known for, along with a range of calibrated modes for streaming services. Its color accuracy and impressive HDR performance make it a great option for both movie lovers and everyday viewing. With its blend of performance and value, the Sony B8 easily earns my Top Choice for 2024.

      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!

    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

    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.

      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 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.

    A Very Balanced and Performant TV.

    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).

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.

    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.
