Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The UI on the Home screen (Google TV) is snappy and responsive, on top of being the best system to use on any smart TV. The picture quality out of the box is outstanding, especially in Cinema mode.

Excellent TV, easy to setup, beautiful picture
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sony has made an excellent line of TVs even better with this second generation OLED TV. The picture is stunningly beautiful. I was also impressed with how much Sony has improved the setup process, especially with the apps. QR codes for logging in to the apps made it much easier to authorize the TV with the app. No need to remember passwords! The TV also did a great job of recognizing all of the devices attached to the four HDMI ports. Again, It was very easy. We love the TV.

Posted .Hi LARRYM, thank you so much for taking the time to share your detailed experience—we appreciate your honesty and enthusiasm! It’s wonderful to hear you’re enjoying the BRAVIA 8 MKII and that its picture quality stands out for you.
OLED technology does offer exceptional color and contrast, but as you’ve noticed, it can be susceptible to image retention (sometimes called “burn-in”) with prolonged static images. Activities like leaving a channel logo, paused video, or music app on screen for long periods can gradually cause this effect. Your experience is a great reminder about the importance of screen management, and we’re glad you discovered the screen turn-off feature on the new BRAVIA—it’s an excellent way to protect your OLED panel during music streaming or any situation with a static display.
The BRAVIA 8 MKII is designed with smarter tools to help prevent burn-in, including pixel shift, screen savers, and customizable screen-off options. Using these features during static usage (like streaming audio through apps) can help ensure you keep enjoying vibrant picture quality for years to come.
If you ever have questions about settings or want tips to optimize your BRAVIA experience, our support team is here to help. Thanks again for coming back to Sony and for highlighting practical ways other users can take care of their TVs!

Big Upgrade
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall a very nice TV, that is now at a much more reasonable price. At first glance I think it looks about the same as the A95L, but with the upgraded processor it feels a big less laggy in the menus and hopefully a bit more future proofed. One note is that the SDR brightness is a bit low until you mess with the configurations to brighten it up a bit.

We appreciate your note regarding the SDR brightness; adjusting the settings can definitely help improve that aspect. Your feedback is invaluable as we strive to make our products even better!
Thank you for choosing Sony!

Simply astounding
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Picture is superb out of the box. Coming from the A80j which is still running strong. The HDMI connection via e arc seems to be having a problem staying connected once I shut off the TV or Cinema 50 receiver, I’m considering returning but the picture is so beautiful the decision is touch to make

Posted .Hi Mikey, thank you for taking the time to share your experience! We're really happy to hear you're enjoying the superb picture quality right out of the box of the Sony - BRAVIA 8 II. We understand that issues with the eARC connection can be difficult and this is certainly not the experience we aim for. We want to ensure all aspects of your TV function properly, here are some troubleshooting steps that can resolve the problem:
1- Perform a power reset of your TV and Receiver. Turn off both devices and disconnect the power cords and HDMI cable from both devices for two minutes, then reconnect the HDMI cable to the HDMI IN ARC of the TV and the other end to the HDMI OUT ARC of the receiver. Connect the power cords, and turn on first the TV and then the Receiver.
2- Enable the BRAVIA sync settings on the TV by going to settings > channels and inputs > external inputs > BRAVIA sync settings > BRAVIA sync device list > enable
3- Make sure the eARC mode is set to Auto. In settings go to display and sound > audio output > eARC mode > auto
If these steps don't resolve the issue, please don't hesitate to contact our customer support team directly through the link below, they would be happy to walk you through more in-depth troubleshooting or discuss potential solutions.

Video and Audio are stunning
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Upgraded from an LG C9. The picture quality is amazing. I wasn’t expecting a big difference going from one OLED to another, but I’m impressed. Main reason I upgraded was cause the audio processing on the C9 was awful. Had issues getting great sound. The Bravia does a great job with audio processing and I’m able to play content at any quality.

Great viewing angle and brightness
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.What a difference a few years make in television technology. I upgraded from a 2012 Sony Bravia and my mind is blown. The picture quality was as good as expected but I am truly impressed by the brightness and the viewing angle. I don’t feel like I even need to swivel the televison anymore, no matter where I am in the the room, the picture is fantastic. Highly recommend.

Probably the best TV in the World right now
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is an excellent TV, and combined with a Sony Bravia sound system - totally worth the price for an unparalleled experience.

Best TV ever
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is by far the best I have ever owned. I upgraded from another Sony Bravia, but this one is far superior. The color rendition is superb and the black level is fantastic. My wife even noticed and she doesn't pay attention to things like that. I compared it to others in the showroom and nothing else came close.

Best TV ever!
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Wife and i went to replace an 8 year old Sony XBR 65 inch. We were going to jump to a 75inch, even though it wasn't necessary. When we got to Best Buy. The picture on this TV absolutely blew ever TV up there out of the water! I have always wanted a high end OLED. My wife fell in love too. We were sold! Its a 65 inch and was $500 more than i wanted to spend but the quality is outstanding! My family members and friends are also blown away. Its so nice i highly recommend this TV!
I would recommend this to a friendBrand response from SonyListens
Posted .Thank you for the incredible review, Mattzeus!
We are so happy that you and your wife fell in love with the BRAVIA 8 II! Upgrading from an 8-year-old Sony is a big jump, and there is truly nothing like that first experience with a high-end OLED—the infinite contrast and "pure black" really do make a world of difference.
It’s wonderful to hear that your family and friends are just as impressed as you are. We’re honored to be the center of your home entertainment for the next chapter!
