    Awesome TV with quality resolution. Have an old SONY Bravia that's lasted me 10+ years. Upgraded to this newer model with no disappointment. Recommend getting a soundbar for quality audio.

    Good, but not great. This new OLED from Sony has a good picture, but it’s too dim to even enjoy (especially if you watch HDR or Dolby Vision content). I returned it and purchased a Bravia 7 mini LED, which is much brighter with an equally good picture quality.

    The picture quality was very good. The sound was as you would expect for a thin tv. We ended up returning the TV because it does not have a sleep timer to turn off the set. We bought a Samsung OLED and are very happy with that. Both were priced within a few bucks of each other.

      Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, StevenH.

      We are pleased to hear that you were impressed with the very good picture quality of the K-55XR8B. We strive to deliver a truly stunning display.

      We are very sorry, however, to hear that you ultimately decided to return the television because it lacked a sleep timer feature. We understand how critical that function can be to a user's viewing habits, and we apologize that this limitation meant the product did not meet your expectations.

      We respect your decision to choose the Samsung OLED, and we appreciate you providing this valuable feedback regarding features. This information is important to our product teams as we continue to evolve our models.

      Thanks for considering Sony.

      Hi ACgub,

      Thank you for your review! We're really happy to hear that you're enjoying the fantastic picture quality and great sound of your new Sony - BRAVIA XR8B.

      We also appreciate your feedback regarding the remote. While it's designed with a minimalist layout for simplicity, we understand your desire for a numeric keypad and a channel jump feature. You can access a virtual numeric keypad and other functions by pressing the "Menu" button on the remote. This will bring up an on-screen menu where you can find and select the channel you want.

      We're always working to improve our products, and your feedback is incredibly valuable. Thank you for choosing Sony!
