Sony the one and only !
|Posted .Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.I bought the LG CX and kept it for several weeks .I was no stranger to LG Oled ‘s had one previously . Everytime I went into Best Buy I was drawn to the Sony, I could see more detail, the LG had a little more pop to it, but I prefer more detail.. I ran into the Sony Rep who there.. great guy ! He pointed out a few things and confirmed my opinions on the Sony... 3 days later the Geek guys delivered my new Sony and it’s a difference. Paired with the Panasonic UB 9000, it is a sight to behold, Blu rays look like 4K discs. Just buy it, you won’t regret !

Worth every penny!
|Posted .Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.Best TV I have ever had. Even streaming from Disney + I can’t wrap my head around how truly awesome the picture is. I had this wall mounted over some ship lap and relocated my outlet to hide the wires. 100% happy with this purchase!! I am glad I listened to the Best Buy employee because I was about to buy something else haha! The TV does draw a lot of power so make sure your outlet is set up for that! I flipped my breaker plugging the vacuum in while the tv was on but I installed a new outlet and all is well now.

Best value for a high end OLED, and it’s a SONY!
|Posted .Owned for 1 month when reviewed.Pros mentioned:Color, Picture, Sound qualityCons mentioned:InstructionsAs soon as I saw the Black Friday price drop, I bought this A8H to replace my Sony XBR900C...an excellent 4K television still even by today’s standards, but man this A8H was a awesome step up. I’m not going to get too technical here; it’s prickly more helpful to just sharing a few things about this TV that’s made made streaming / viewing experience better. First show I watched was Queens Gambit in “Netflix Calibrated mode”..... whoa what a substantial improvement right out of the gates. I’m now able to stream my favorite content in Dolby Vision (no calibration needed) and even non Dolby 4K content looks awesome in cinema mode. Crisp colors to complement perfect blacks as expected with OLED. I was also able to disconnect my nvidia shield, as the processor on this unit is snappy enough to run android TV and all my apps on its own.... still love my shield, but it’s redundant on this TV. Plus another nifty feature I discovered was this unit’s Android TV operating system does a good job integrating streaming channels from Xumo, Pluto, and Peacock right into the “TV app”. It can even be customized to remove all those excessive Pluto/ Xumo channels you’ll never watch from the TV guide! While I do have a soundbar that certainly improves the soundstage and viewing experience for my room, I have to say that I was very impressed with the built in Surface Audio technology on this television. Versus my former Sony, the built in speakers on this one are clear, clean, crisp and have some punch. It does lack deep bass of course, but I sometimes toggle from “Audio System” to “TV speakers” while on Spotify or viewing on Netflix just to make sure the soundbar is on. Yes, I have watched shows with the soundbar unknowingly off. The only negative I have, is that I wish this television had the center channel option that’s it’s master series brother does. I think the tv would make a good center channel. Ultimately, for the price, this is a top notch OLED television with higher end specs and features, a solid Android TV operating system with the processor to smoothly run it, and surprisingly good built in speakers. It also has Apple TV app and AirPlay, making our casting a little easier now from iPhones.

Bravia Again!
|Posted .Once again Sony Bravia come through! This is my third Bravia TV I have purchased since 2006 and again the 65” OLED is a home run. The ease to interface with other Sony equipment like my Sony STR-DH590 Multi Channel AV Receiver makes it a pleasure.

They Got It Right!
|Posted .Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.Pros mentioned:PictureCons mentioned:Hdmi inputI originally walked in to Best Buy with sole intentions of purchasing the LG CX 65 inch, but a funny happened, I spoke with one of the video representatives. As I was trying to gear up for the next gen consoles, and I realized the pricing on all these great televisions including the Sony’s. And realized that LG CX was geared towards gamers. Not that I’m not a gamer but I’m an occasional gamer I’m not into online game play deeply. I’m more into cinema I love movies, broadcast football games, etc. And I currently own an LG C8 which has an incredible tv by the way, and absolutely no so-called burn in or image retention issues AT All!!! I get so tired of all this the sky is falling fear mongering about OLED TVs they fantastic televisions! I used to sell them at HHGREGG!!!! But I’d been keeping my eye on the Sony’s for sometime and so when they started advertising they’re Black Friday prices I said whoa!!! And I swerved into this Awesome A8H!!!!! And my God!! The picture quality along with Sony’s processing has to be experienced to believed!!!! I hear a lot of people complaining about it’s lack of 2.1 Hdmi and the 120 hz for gaming, I game but I’m not one of these Call Of Duty hardcore gamers. The set suits me just fine! I’m a realist, I know exactly who this television was meant for, and it is for people like myself who enjoy films and HDR content at its best!!!! Oh almost forgot the incredible absolute black levels!!!! And I thought the C8’s blacks were awesome!!!! My C8 LG is a 55 inch by the way....... I’ve been wanting a 65 inch OLED forever so this incredible set of coincidences to be able to purchase this colossal set!! These televisions in my opinion are well worth the price because of what I get for my money and that just an amazing consistent picture! What are You waiting for!!!!

Great TV!!!
|Posted .Pros mentioned:Design, Picture, Set upBeautiful, delivery was quick and easy, very nice delivery men. Set up was super easy - I did watch the set up video prior so that made it even easier. Programming was easy - even to our direct TV remotes.. The picture and sound are both wonderful. Best Buy is my all time favorite for all electronics & appliances! My pictures really do not show the absolute quality of this TV.

The WOW Factor!
|Posted .Owned for 1 month when reviewed.Pros mentioned:Set upCons mentioned:RemoteThe first impression after setting up the TV: WOW!! This is my first OLED TV and I'm impressed. The picture quality is just "Next Level". It's definitely worth every penny. Pros: HDR / Dolby Vision movies look amazing True Blacks - dark scenes are awesome to watch Color Accuracy Motion clarity / Black Frame Insertion (BFI) Android TV apps are super fast and smooth Easy to setup Super thin Bezel Very sturdy build quality - doesn't wobble like its competitors Adjustable stand (accommodates space for soundbar) Cons: Nothing I could think of about the TV, it's a stunning TV. But the remote could have been more modern, it looks clunky and old. One more minor thing - ethernet port connectivity provides a max speed of around 90 Mbps even though I have 1000 Mbps internet. PS: My Apple TV reaches 800+ Mbps.
