AMAZING Picture!!
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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... "Picture me rolling!!....Big Syke, Nook, Hank....All Eyes on Me! Hahhaha!!!!!"

Really nice 4k TV
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Fantastic value and perfect for a bedroom
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This TV was for a back bedroom which is not overly bright. For that application, it is a fantastic value for the money. The Google operating system made it easy to set up and add all our streaming services to the TV. The picture is fantastic.

Great TV
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great TV. Upgraded from a Sony 3D 1080, so the clarity is really noticeable on the OLED 4K. I use an Apple TV so can't speak to the Google TV but it looks fine. Delivery was ontime and quick - happy there.
