    I was skeptical when looking at the price but took the leap. And wow am I glad I did. This thing is so premium. Of the highest qualities compared to what other tvs are these days. Just feels sturdy. And looks amazing. Color and picture quality is outstanding. UI is one of my favorites for a TV. If you have a PS5 and some Blu rays, it’s wraps. So good. Buy it if you’re gonna buy an OLED tv

    Great picture, great sound for factory tv speakers, and easy user interface. Only reason I gave it 4 stars and not 5 is because the remote did not have backlighting like other Sony OLED TVs. I purchased a factory replacement with the backlighting and it works like it should.

    Not a big difference between Bravia 8 and Bravia 8 II. Nice bang for your buck! This is my first oled, and I am so excited! I've been buying sony since the old Wega Trinitron days. Seeing is believing! You can see the difference with the Dolby Vision and standard. I know I know what you're thinking. I might be biased but hey...

      Hi DebraB!
      It is most rewarding to hear that your new TV is delivering such a beautiful picture. We love that you’ve paired it with a soundbar to get the full effect!

      The K-55XR8B features a stunning OLED panel that produces pure blacks and vibrant colors for a lifelike image. It also uses Acoustic Surface Audio+, where the screen itself acts as the speaker, ensuring the sound perfectly follows the action on the display.

      Thanks for selecting Sony!

    This is an exceptional TV, although it would be nice if the spacer screws for wall mounting were included in the packaging. The picture is quite detailed and the ATSC 3.0 "NexGen" tuner is a great feature that many of the competitive TV's just do not have. I think is plenty bright for many people's tastes.
