Great tv
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great tv with the best motion handling. This replaced a new samsung 90f OLED. The samsung was brighter and colors popped a bit more, but the motion judder/studder was terrible. I returned it and got this, instead. The sony is far superior. Get this.

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.

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.

Would have given 5 stars but the person who installed it failed to connect the external speakers so sound is not great. He has not returned our calls.

Amazing picture, bright, crisp and clear
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We have LG, Vizio and Samsung TV but needed a replacement for our family room. My sister has a Sony and the picture is so clear, so we decided to get one. We could not be happier! I am ready to replace all TV with Sonys. Easy set up, easy installation and great picture - who could ask for more!

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.

Good display for Streaming services only
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have purchased two Sony Bravia TV'S in the last few years. The older one is a X80CK and the new one is the BRAVIA 8. I feel that both TV's are excellent in different ways. The older X80CK is much better when watching regular TV and when streaming shows on many APPS. The BRAVIA 8 has less quality on watching regular over-the-air sub channel TV Shows. These are typically older shows from the 1990's and older. Newer TV shows recorded in HD formats are flawless. In addition streaming content with premium APPS is amazing to say the least. Because the display has no blooming, my family room is darker so I need more room light the keep my eyes from becoming too dry. Lastly, the older set combines Pluto into watchable live TV channels whereas the new B8 doesn't which is why I prefer the older TV for my everyday TV.

Bright, Bold, Beautiful — Bravia 8
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Bravia 8 offers a premium viewing experience with gorgeous colors and deep blacks. I compared this TV among competing OLED and Mini-LED models and while it’s not as bright as some OLEDs and especially Mini-LEDs, the color reproduction and build quality won me over. This is especially noticeable when unboxing the TV as there are no creaks and the metal band encasing the screen adds a premium touch. While I’m not a fan of the interface, it is snappy and offers solid recommendations.

Posted .Thank you for sharing this thoughtful and insightful review, Ryan!
We are absolutely thrilled to hear that the BRAVIA 8 won you over after comparing it against competing OLED and Mini-LED models. It's incredibly rewarding to know that you are enjoying the gorgeous colors and deep blacks that define the premium viewing experience we strive to deliver.
Your feedback on the build quality—noting the absence of creaks and the premium metal band—is especially valuable. We believe the quality of the physical product is as important as the picture, and we're glad this detail stood out during your unboxing.
We also appreciate your honest feedback regarding the interface; it's great to hear that despite your personal preference, you find it snappy and that the solid recommendations enhance your viewing experience.
Thank you again for choosing Sony to be the centerpiece of your home entertainment!

Great Sony OLED TV
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.In 2020 I made the switch from using another brand on TV to Sony when I bought my first 65" Oled TV, I have been updating all my sets little by little and the last one I bought was the 55" Sony Oled. It continues to perform at a high level and the google software is easy and intuitive to use. Great picture quality and especial when viewing a movie with great film quality.

Best TV Experience
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.*"A Cut Above the Rest"* I'm absolutely loving my Sony 55" Class BRAVIA 8 OLED 4K UHD Smart Google TV! Yes, it's pricey, but trust me, you're paying for top-of-the-line features that make it worth every penny. The OLED display is stunning, with vibrant colors and pure blacks that make you feel like you're right in the action. The Google TV platform is super intuitive, and the built-in Google Assistant makes it a breeze to find what I'm looking for. Plus, the sound quality is impressive, thanks to the unique "screen speaker" technology. If you're a serious cinephile or gamer, this TV is definitely worth the investment. It's not for everyone, but for those who want the best, the Sony BRAVIA 8 is a cut above the rest. *Rating:* 5/5 stars *Would I recommend it?* Absolutely, if you're willing to splurge on a premium TV experience!
