    this one...Not Bad........ But, I've had better ( in 44 years ) Sony's in past..... bought because I watch mostly in a darkened room. it's ok.... BUT, still, the big-box style ( long gone ) TV's were/are still superior to these WHIMPY ( picture & sound quality ) flat screens ...... BUT SCREEN SIZE awesome & not obtainable without 4 sp ft of room !!!!!

      Hi MichaelnC,

      We appreciate your decades of loyalty to Sony and your honest feedback.

      For the best picture quality in your darkened room, try setting the Picture Mode to Custom and ensuring the Light Sensor is turned off in the display settings. This will maximize the deep, accurate contrast that your BRAVIA 8 OLED panel is designed for.

      Thank you for choosing Sony.

    Purchased the 55in model a few days ago to replace the 4yr old LED in the game room. Hooked up the PS5 & fired up some Elden Ring… wow what a difference. The palet of colors & contrast is astonishing. Never thought I’d notice something like the different shades of green from plants, trees, grass, etc.. Variable refresh rate is a nice upgrade as well, everything looks & feels buttery smooth. Watched Dune Part 2 in 4K last night & it was the nicest presentation of the film I’ve ever seen.

    Great, shuts off for updates with no warning. Got this tv for the 120fps, for the ps5 pro. It’s fantastic UNTIL IT TURNS OFF MID GAME AFTER A SOFTWARE UPDATE THAT YOU WERE NOT INFORMED ABOUT! That’s my only gripe. Otherwise… so worth it!

      Hi BrennanS,

      We are very sorry to hear that the TV shut off unexpectedly during a critical moment due to a software update, and we understand how frustrating that can be, especially during gameplay. We highly recommend checking your TV's settings under Settings > System > Software Update and ensuring that Automatic software downloads is set to Off and that Automatic software update is also set to Off or Confirmation. This will prevent unscheduled restarts and allow you to initiate updates manually at a convenient time. We're happy to hear that outside of this issue, the 120fps performance on your BRAVIA 8 OLED for the PS5 Pro is fantastic and worth it.

      Thanks for choosing Sony.

    Amazing picture! Sony is amazing when it comes to quality. Hardest decision was picking between the B 7 and Bravia 8, mini LED being much brighter and all. But I ended with the Bravia 8 because I wanted the better blacks and this thing is bright! At the store it looked dim, but trust me, this TV is bright inside my room. My doom does not have direct sunlight, but I do not expect the TV to have issues at normally lid rooms. 120hz at 4k is awesome, I use it to play video games on my PC and it is butter smooth picture. Only thing I miss is the line output to send the audio to my amps, but digital audio should be better if you have a good DAC. Or bluetooth for non-hifi speakers.
