    Fails at being a television -- "No Program Info"

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This TV looks great for streaming apps but it is pretty hard to find ANY TV that looks bad these days it isn't the 80's. The one thing Sony did that is really superior to other alternatives is provide access to OTA TV and streaming with one guide UI. Other than cheap FIreOS TV's everyone else requires that you launch a separate app to choose TV stations. The problem is that the latest firmware update (which can not be rolled back) provides 3!! different television guides and NONE of them work. One guide only works on 3 stations, one guide only works to show current program AFTER you watch the channel for 5 minutes, and the primary Google UI only works 1-2 days per month. It basically just worked long enough to pass the initial return window. Support is worthless. Google and Sony point their fingers at each other and no one admits that they simply turned off the servers. They just give you days worth of nonsense to do -- trust me factory reset will not help and clear data for google TV is a disaster. Unlike other content issues there is no work-around for this by installing an external device. There is NO streaming device that handles OTA without either having crap resolution (AirTV) or launching a separate app (any other OTA streamer). Television is the one thing you need your TV to do properly. If you enjoy "No Program Info" definitely buy this. Otherwise save your money and buy a different brand.

    This is an awesome TV, Top quality. Cons it only has 2, 2.1 HDMI ports, one of the being a ARC/EARC. For a gamer with a PS5 Pro and a Xbox Series X I can’t use the ARC for my sound bar without buying a new expensive sounded bar with 2, 2.1 HDMI ports to pass to my console tru. I used the audio digital out cable and it took me days to get the audio delay out of it, watching a movie or playing a FPS was impossible with the audio delay. Sony needed to have 4, 2.1 HDMI ports on this TV.

      Hi Frank, We’re delighted to know that you are pleased with the outstanding performance of this remarkable OLED TV. Your feedback regarding the HDMI 2.1 port feature is greatly appreciated. We understand the importance of having two HDMI 2.1 ports, particularly for users with modern gaming consoles such as the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X. We acknowledge that complications can occur if one of these ports is designated for eARC connectivity. Rest assured, we have taken your comments into account and have already forwarded them to the relevant team for further consideration. Your input is invaluable to us, and we’re committed to continuously enhancing your experience. If you have any more suggestions or questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out. We're here to listen and help! Thanks for choosing Sony! -Jess Sony_US

      Hi MatthewM
      ,
      Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry the BRAVIA 8 OLED didn't meet your expectations compared to the BRAVIA 7 Mini LED; this difference often comes down to lighting, as Mini LED (BRAVIA 7) is brighter and performs better in well-lit rooms, while OLED (BRAVIA 8) excels in darker, cinematic environments due to its perfect blacks. We suggest adjusting the picture settings to 'Custom' or 'Cinema' and ensuring features like 'Eco Mode' are disabled, which might help you achieve the visual quality you are looking for.

      Thanks for choosing Sony.

    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.
