After 1 month with this TV, I have found no significant issues and the usability is great with the Google tv interface. The sound quality is exceptional for TV speakers. Like with most mid-range OLED TVs, the brightness leaves a little bit to be desired in a brighter room. If you have curtains or shades, or just watch things when its darker out, this isnt really a problem at all since it still gets plenty bright. The picture quality, color vibrance, and motion handling are all great in my experience so far. For gaming, one warning if you have multiple next-gen consoles or a PC, only 2 of the HDMI ports are 2.1 compatible. This is more of a future proofing concern I think, but worth noting anyway. Input lag is apparently higher for this TV when gaming compared to other similar valued OLED TVs, but I havent noticed anything significant during my time playing.
I would recommend this TV for most when its on sale as the brightness and only having 2 HDMI 2.1 ports drops the value down lower compared to other similar priced OLED TVs that are brighter or have more HDMI 2.1 ports.

This is a great TV from Sony. To be honest, I went into Best Buy after doing research and was leaning toward a Samsung Q80C or S90C. As someone who loves Best Buy and looking at TV's, I'll share my thoughts about the TVs. The Samsungs were nice, and one was less expensive, but I wasn't a fan of how thin the screen on the S90C was. I also didn't a QLED and they don't have Dolby Vision. The S90C screen was almost paper thin. I moved the tv to look at the back and it wobbled and flexed, which concerned me a little. Some might desire that, but it seemed risky to me. I talked to the reps and they shared pros and cons about the Samgungs and I mentioned my research about the Sonys. I didn't want LG, Fire, or TCL and know some folks love big TVs and low prices, but I wanted quality. The Sony A80L is an amazing OLED. The picture is great. Some folks think the Samsungs are better because they can be brighter, but after some tweaks on the TV, its perfect for my liking. Super bright doesn't mean better. Make sure you pick the TV right for you and your room. I think the Sony has a better user interface and everything on cable looks great. Hit the Netflix button and it pops up super fast and plays immediately. PS5 looks amazing as does anything streaming like Netflix, Hulu, or Amazon. This Sony is designed to show you what things are intended to look like. I have it paired with a Sony sound bar and its perfect. I'm very happy with my purchase, especially after researching for weeks and pulling the trigger during the black Friday sales. Go into the store and play around and pick what works best for you. TV's are not created equal :)

Picture quality is excellent. When the techs were going through the initial setup of the TV, Dark Knight was on. I was blown away by the picture quality. The blacks were actually black, and the colors were incredible. My receiver and feed was still 1080p, but that never looked this great on my previous 1080p TV. Even the sound is good. Especially for built-in TV speakers.

After three years of saving Best Buy Gift Cards and researching televisions, I finally decided to buy a 55 inch Sony a80l.
No regrets so far. Picture quality is excellent as expected! Brightness has not been an issue.
I will now start saving for my upgrade to a 65 inch in four or five years.

OLED provides the best picture! I have a Samsung Q80 in my living room that company regularly comments about how good the picture and colors are when they visit. The picture on the Sony Bravia OLED completely blows away the picture quality and clarity of my Samsung. I don’t think I will ever purchase anything but Sony OLED to replace or upgrade the TVs in my house.

I bought this TV to replace my 2010-era Panasonic 1080p LCD TV and I love it. I was on the fence about buying a smart TV for years because I didn't want to deal with laggy or annoying interfaces or not getting app updates once the manufacturer stopped supporting the device. But this TV has the same UI as my Chromecast streaming devices and very similar to my Nvidia Shield that I used on my old TV. And if apps stop getting updates, I'll go back to using a streaming device plugged into my HDMI input.
Image quality on this TV is fantastic, especially when paired with a 4K/UltraHD Blu-ray player and UltraHD Blu-rays (the ones that come in the black cases). The image processing on this TV is great for streaming too. I don't notice nearly as much pixelation in dark areas when streaming shows on Netflix or other apps. Even old 1080p content looks good.
I have it connected to my Sony sound system so I can't comment on the sound quality of this TV. Other reviews I've watched say it's decent but I would probably still plan to get a sound bar or something for the best quality.
I wish it wasn't so expensive but I have no regrets with this purchase. It's worth every penny.

Great picture, however, when using the remote as probably 100 % of people would, the TV will lock up, and will not respond to a channel change, or any other change. I have to unplug the TV to reset it, or it will not respond at all. A manufacturing lack of Quality Control. Also the Remote Control Does not have number Buttons on it, Re Engineering of this obvious mistake is very necessary.

Yeah sure it's an OLED and the contrast is great, response time is spectacular, Fine, sure, whatever.
Forget all that. You can get that out of an LG B4. This is much more about the listening experience than the visual.
The screen vibrates. It's supposed to, and you can't undersell how cool that is. I already had a Paradigm surround sound setup, and the display acting as an additional center channel just adds a whole new dimension to the soundfield. That "Acoustic Surface Audio" or whatever SONY calls it has changed the way I interact with the TV; watching/viewing is secondary, all I want to do is listen to all the little details that got washed out before.

After experiencing lifetimes of 5 and 6 years respectively on two mid-price models from Samsung, it was time to look elsewhere. Sony has always been about optics and sound and not household appliances. Based on reading many, many reviews and several viewing trips to the local BBY, it was decision time. As a brand, Sony models stood out from the pack. OLED was a must-have requirement. All the research and store level viewing was good, but having the actual in place in our home was even better. In particular, the sound quality and related options are just great. I’ve sat in front of friends’ tv’s with sound bars setups that aren’t any better than this model. Very pleased with this tv and especially the way BBY handled the transaction, delivery and set-up that exceeded expectations.
