Poor manufacture quality and defects

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I bought it on 11/28/2025. And started finding the Red thick vertical lines on the screen after less than 2 months usage, confirmed it's not issue of loosen HDMI or any inpurt port, because this lines are there no matter which page i am in.It's annoying.
We are very sorry to hear about the red vertical lines appearing on your screen. We understand how frustrating this is, especially with a new television, and we appreciate you confirming that the cables and ports are not the cause.
To help determine if this is a software glitch, please try the following steps:
1. Power Reset: Unplug the TV from the power outlet and leave it unplugged for a full 2 minutes. Plug it back in and check if the lines persist.
2. Self-Diagnostics: You can run an internal check by navigating to: Settings > System > Help > Status and diagnostics > Self diagnostics.
If those red lines remain visible during the diagnostic test or the home screen, it likely indicates an issue that needs professional attention. We highly encourage you to contact our Technical Support team immediately so we can look into your warranty options and further assist you:
We want to make sure your BRAVIA experience is nothing short of excellent, and we’re here to help get this resolved.
Thank you for considering Sony!

Amazing Picture, Bad Product

The panel on this TV is magnificent. I truly have never seen a better picture on a display. If the only thing you care about is the panel you won’t be disappointed. The rest of the TV though does not measure up to that high bar. When removing the plastic packaging tape that wraps the TV the tape clung to and pealed away the plastic covering on the frame of mine leaving ugly defects along the bottom center of the screen. Sony refused to honor the warranty and I’m left with high-glare detatched plastic running along the bottom of the TV. Sony assures me this is not a manufacturing defect so expect the same on yours. The TV also struggles with my Sonos Arc Ultra - the TV sets the sound to 0 when I turn it on and Inhave to manually turn it back up every time. Once a week the TV stops emitting sound and I have to pop the back cable cover off the TV and unplug and replug it to get the sound bar working again. The bar works fine with other TVs. Overall fantastic panel shipped in a junk product.
Thank you for sharing this detailed feedback, SadTVOwner.
We are genuinely thrilled to hear your high praise for the K-65XR80M2 panel, and it is rewarding to know you believe you have "never seen a better picture on a display." Delivering magnificent picture quality is our primary focus, and we are glad that aspect is meeting your expectations.
However, we are truly sorry and concerned to read about the significant issues you have experienced regarding the packaging, the frame defect, and the ongoing, persistent communication problems with your soundbar. We sincerely apologize that the overall experience has fallen short of the premium standard you deserve.
We understand how frustrating it is to have a cosmetic defect on your new, premium television, especially one caused during the removal of protective materials. We regret that our previous support response did not satisfy your concern regarding the damage. We take quality control and packaging seriously, and we will share your specific experience regarding the tape adhesion and the resulting peeling of the protective plastic with our packaging team for immediate internal review.
We acknowledge that the volume resetting to 0 and the weekly need to unplug/replug the HDMI cable are unacceptable disruptions, and we apologize for this daily inconvenience. These issues typically point to a persistent communication conflict between the TV (CEC) and the soundbar.
We would like to help you resolve this so you can enjoy the seamless operation you expect. Please try the comprehensive troubleshooting steps outlined in our Community response, specifically performing the CEC Handshake.
We are committed to helping you find a solution and truly regret that the surrounding components have detracted from the panel's magnificent performance. Thank you for bringing this to our attention and for choosing Sony.

As a movie-phile. loved the Tv, but. excellent picture quality.
I had a sony Z9D prior to this. So i was used to super high brightness and very good deep blacks.
straight out of the box, colors are vibrant, contrast is clean, and imiage processing was awesome.
playing 4K moves through the UPB 700 from sony was breathtaking. i didn't see a need to calibrate the tv. peak brightness on scenes was superb.
streaming through an apple tv 4K latest gen, was also very good. it read dolby vision content, and played back no issues. rendering the low nitrate content was also very good. hard to tell you were streaming 4K dolby vision content.
streaming SDR content was all very good. it did a very good job at cleaning up and upscaling the content.
The interface is one of my favorites. i can access the settings very quickly and out fuz if i needed to adjust anything.
it was also great that i could use the tv panel sound and paired to with my surround so i could add more clarity with the center channel i have hooked up.
As for why i had to change and go for the LG G5. it's because of the lack of HDMI 2.1 ports.
it only had 2 compared to 4 on the LG.
i had to unplug and plug things in like the blue ray, apple tv, and xbox so i can take full advantage of 120 frames while gaming, full spectrum bandwidth while streaming for dolby vision and dolby atmos for my older marantz reviver.
Hi Flip, Thank you for sharing such a detailed review! We are very glad to hear you appreciated the excellent picture quality, vibrant colors and smooth processing of the K-65XR80M2. It’s great to know the TV handled 4K and Dolby Vision content so well.
We designed this model to offer quick, user-friendly interface access and flexible sound options to enhance your viewing experience. We understand the importance of HDMI 2.1 ports for your setup and appreciate your thoughtful feedback as it helps us continue improving our products.
Thank you for putting your trust in Sony! Warm regards, Estefany

I purchased a 65-in Sony Bravia 8i and I can only say this TV is nothing short of spectacular. I have a 65-in Panasonic z95b in the living room and this Sony TV in the bedroom and I love it just as much as the Panasonic. It's not quite as bright as the Panasonic, but the qd OLED colors are absolutely stunning. I do love the Google OS much better than the Amazon OS. It is neat seeing how even though both TVs are OLED the difference between qdoled and the primary four stack OLED.. I will say the Panasonic has more three-dimensionality but the Sony has a unique look to it when watching movies and TV shows that I feel you only get from the Sony. The QD OLED oled colors are unmatchable and I was debating between the Sony and the Samsung s95f and I'm glad I went with Sony as I just feel like it's a more premium television and I prefer the glossy panel over the matte. I also believe the Sony like the Panasonic will last much longer than the Samsung or LG oleds due to a better cooling system. I feel like This TV will last much longer before burn in is an issue then the Samsung or LG G5. The sound is extremely good for television speakers also much better than the Samsung or LG. It doesn't match or come near the Panasonic but that's to be as expected as that TV comes with its own soundbar and speakers going up the left and right side as well as on top. Overall, I am more than happy with the Sony Bravia 8 Mark II and would recommend this TV to anybody as Sony just makes some of the best TVs for Cinema watching. I will say however, if your preference or main use is gaming then I would go with LG G5 or Samsung s95f or even Panasonic z95b unless you are only gaming on a console, In which case the 120 HZ panel is all you can get out of PlayStation 5 or Xbox series x and the Sony does match that
Thank you so much for this spectacular and incredibly detailed review of the 65" Class BRAVIA 8 II OLED TV! We are thrilled to hear that the QD-OLED colors and unique cinematic look have left such a strong impression, and we appreciate your comparison to other premium sets, recognizing Sony's quality and design. It's also great to know you're enjoying the sound quality and the Google OS experience.
Thanks for choosing Sony.

The TV to beat for PQ accuracy and refinement

With the exception of a cheap TCL and a Samsung Frame for guest rooms, I've stuck with Sony TVs for the last 15+ years for the picture calibration, ergonomics and overall quality. There's a reason Sony TVs are noticeably heavier than their Samsung equivalent - they are built to a higher standard. Out of over a dozen units across my family, not a single TV has failed - even my 2009 XBR9 is still going strong. So disclaimer that I have a bias towards the brand. I have also purchased 4 other Sony OLEDs - the A8H, A9S, A80J and A80K, and have seen the incremental improvements over time.
I pulled the trigger on this despite the mixed RTINGS review and general consensus that the latest LG and Samsung flagships have some brightness and feature advantages. Initially, I was struck by how nuanced and film-like the picture was - it really looked quite different from any other TV I've used before - but SDR was shockingly dim in Cinema/Professional modes. It turns out there is a critical setting you MUST change - Peak Luminance. Make sure this is set to "High" before you evaluate! I have been using Professional mode with settings close to the RTINGS calibration, with a couple tweaks to taste.
Once set up, the picture quality is shockingly cinematic, natural and refined. Motion is buttery smooth without resorting to any interpolation processing gimmicks. Dolby Vision content on Netflix has a film-like warmth and subtlety to it, with impressive dynamic range between dark and bright scenes. It's not just that brightness and shadow detail are better than my other OLEDs, which they are, but it captures the "feel" of different scenes much more completely. Dusk and nighttime scenes really feel like dusk and night rather than just being dim, and daytime scenes have a realistic brilliance to them. And different films/shows look more differentiated from each other, giving a stronger sense of the aesthetic the director was aiming for. It reminds me a lot of upgrading to very high-end loudspeakers (I'm a wacko audiophile) that have better frequency response and resolution - not everything sounds better (in fact, bad recordings often sound worse), but you can hear so much more range and detail to everything. While I've never used a mastering monitor before, Sony's claims that this is the closest they've gotten to studio quality in a consumer TV resonate - it feels like you are that much closer to the original source. My other OLEDs, while still great, look decidedly more "ordinary" now.
It's my first QD-OLED so I can't say how it compares to other brands or the A95L, but I will say it handles my very bright living room well - it's very watchable in daylight (not direct sunlight mind you) with minimal glare and washout and wide viewing angles. By comparison, an older X900F LCD I had was literally unwatchable in the same conditions. I'm using a Sennheiser Amber soundbar, so can't comment on built-in sound quality. Android TV UI isn't as fast as e.g. a Google TV 4K Streamer, but quite snappy which is a relief given my A8H has become borderline unusable with Android 11. Hopefully the cpu/ram in the Bravia 8 II will be sufficient for a while.
All in all, a great TV that I plan to keep for a long time. Recommended!
We sincerely appreciate your fantastic review! Your loyalty to Sony TVs over the years means a lot to us, and we are delighted to hear about your exceptional experience with the K65XR80M2 TV. It’s wonderful that you’re enjoying the cinematic picture quality and nuanced performance, especially after fine-tuning the Peak Luminance setting. Your observations regarding the enhanced dynamic range and detail are incredibly valuable, and we’re pleased that the TV complements the bright conditions of your living room so well. We hope you continue to enjoy its remarkable features and performance for many years to come! Thank you for your recommendation!

Total UI Disaster & Total Picture Perfection
|

Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.
This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
After using my Best Buy Sony OLED tv for a few months, I can honestly give you a clear, concise review. The BAD (NO, THE TERRIBLE) is this Google User Interface (UI), which is a total disaster. This tv is primarily a tv first, but try to figure out how to find the normal live tv IS A TOTAL DISASTER! It's almost impossible for someone unfamiliar with computers such as children or the elderly. The live tv is hidden embedded deep within the UI. Next, you want your favorite channel and punch in, say channel 7, but noooo, you have to enter 7, then decimal point, then 1, then enter. My old Sony tv is smart enough to know that I want a channel designated as 7.1, so it prompts me, but this new Sony has a convoluted Google disasterous UI. So, be warned that this Google software is so difficult to use, and Google forces you to work through paid offerrings that you have NO interest in. Why can't I turn off all of these pay, pay, and pay features? NEXT IS VERY, VERY IMPORTANT: if you use an over the air antenna because you prefer to avoid cable tv's hugh prices, that rachet quietly up and up and up, then listen up. In a place where I live (Los Angeles), I would consider LA to be a MAJOR TV NETWORK LOCATION, then realize that this Sony tv ONLY HAS A SINGLE OVER-THE-AIR ANTENNA JACK, so why is that importsnt at all? Some networks in LA have transitioned from analog antenna signals to a new digital system, which would normally not be an issue. However, you won't believe this! You need an indoor (or outdoor optionally, but not necessary) DIGITAL antenna with RABBIT EARS for certain tv stations in LA, such as watching football on FOX, channel 11. But you also need a separate modetn digital antenna with the round, circular antenna for the other digital stations. But remember that there is only a SINGLE antenna jack in the back of the tv!! A big fail! Almost a "deal breaker." Now, let's get to the picture. I have the tv setup with a new Sony 4K/Bluray player, which takes almost 3-5 minutes to startup, but this Sony dister is for a player review. And I have a Nakamichi DRAGON sound bar, with wireless surr ound speakers for ceiling, rear, side, and two subwoofers. If you are considering what to buy for your dream ststem, then run, don't walk to get your DRAGON. But I digress, THIS SONY PICTURE MAKES ALL PREVIOUS MOVIE VIEWINGS OBSOLETE! It is unbelievably great, so much so that your old Blurays or 4K's will need to be watched again. You have read other reviews which have said that a tv has a grwat pucture, but this is better than any picture that you have ever watched, so much so that it is the equivalent to the jump from black& white tv to volor tv...it is that big of a increase in picture quality. Which leaves the incredible disasterous remote control. Oh my gosh, this half sized remote is so bad that I am forced to use the bigger remote from my old Sony tv, as it is that bad. How in the world did Sony match up such a great picture with such a useless remote and an agonizingly bad GOOGLE USER INTERFACE? I believe that you should definitely buy this amazing tv for its pucture, but be prepared for the disastrous UI and equally twrribly insufficient, unlighted remote control. Oh, before I forget, the Google interface to change your settings is way beyond being unusasble, as it is the worst disaster in this tv. Just tey to find some feature to adjust or change, then be prepared to spend the next thirty minutes IN TOTAL, COMPLETE FRUSTRATION? No, it's beyond frustration, it is a cluster! I just spend 3 sessions to attempt to find the switch for my audio between the tv speakers vs. my Nakamichi Dragon! I am not kidding when I tell you that someone unfamiliar with co.purts, or is a child, or is an elderly person, then this Google UI is not for you. But otherwise, this tv picture has a clarity that makes a closeup face appear to be live in your living room. No kidding, it is that good! In closing, buy this tv (but be prepared for deal breaking UI issues). BUY IT NOW, YOU WILL THANK ME!
We are thrilled that the BRAVIA 8 II’s picture quality has made such a massive impact on your home theater experience! To simplify your experience, you can enable "Apps Only Mode" in the account settings to hide unwanted recommendations, or press the "TV" button on your remote to jump straight to your live channels. For easier audio management, you can toggle between your TV speakers and the Nakamichi Dragon by pressing the "Quick Settings" (gear icon) button, and if you prefer a larger, backlit remote with a full number pad, the Sony RMF-TX920U is a compatible option. We truly appreciate your feedback as it helps us improve.
