Solid Product
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We have truly enjoyed the tv. The picture is very clear and clean. The picture and sound are far better than our LG TV which was comparable in size and quality. I am very impressed with Sony and very pleased with their product.

Great TV but even better service!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Originally purchased A80L - 65". I found it to be a bit too dark and immediately new this was not a keeper. Next day went to Best Buy in Mt. Laurel, NJ. to return/purchase next model up which is the Bravia 8. Absolutely love the 8! Picture is great, crystal clear with plenty of detail and most of all bright without having to max out brightness. Equally delighted with the service at this store. I have not received such fantastic and prompt service like this in over 20 years from any establishment. I was dreading going to the store for the return/upgrade but, the first two young men a ran into teamed up and one proceeded to process return while the other individual went and got the tv. I was in/out of store in less than 5 min. Turns out the first Bravia 8 was DOA just a black screen would not turn on. I was annoyed to put it nicely but returned to store several hours later to now exchange this defective unit and a completely different staff again provided me with exemplary service, and I suddenly did not feel to frustrated. Again, exchange was made promptly, and I was in/out of the store in less than 5 min. Whomever manages this store is doing a fine job. And the employees deserve a company sponsored picnic or tickets to a game for performing outstanding customer service. Almost forgot to mention the team at Best Buy also removed tv from my vehicle and loaded exchange/replacement on all three visits

The best clear natural picture possible
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I originally bought the S90 Samsung 65" but after getting it home and set up I had dark sports floating around when it was on for a hour or more. When the spots weren't there I start to notice that the reds were set way to high and the picture looked fake. I retutitnto best buy and started talking to one of the blue shirts about it. He took me over to the Samsung and LG booths to see the differences. Then asked me if I had considered Sony, which I hadn't. All the reviews say Samsung or LG with Sony a distant 3rd. Once I saw the Sony Bravia 8 picture I was in love. It was by far the most natural picture out of the three. So, I paid the difference and brought it home. I've had it for the last month give or take a few days and I absolutely love the natural hues and lifelike picture. I am so glad my Samsung had a bad panel. Thank you to BB for their generous return policy and Sony for the amazing panel they delivered. Another thing I almost forgot about the Sony is that it is a sturdy frame, the S90 felt like I was going to break it every time I adjusted the horizontal or vertical axis. The Sony doesn't feel like it's twisting or anything. It an almost perfect piece of technology.

Great buy
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This OLED TV delivers impressive picture quality. Colors look vibrant and accurate, black levels are deep and inky, and the TV handles motion smoothly for sports or action scenes (used for super bowl). While it can be pricier than some competitors, its overall image fidelity justifies the premium for many serious home theater enthusiasts.

Good balance between quality and price
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This TV provides a relatively good balance on performance and price. I appreciate the Sony hardware and Google software combination. This is a good buy for those who already have a home gaming console such as a PS5 and don't want to pay more for random bells and whistles from new AI features, where it is only worth if you don't have a PS5 or other console to support you on that end. The integrated speakers are great for those who can't fully go in on an external sound bar if you have close neighbors. The sound is still punchy and dynamic. The only Con is that it takes some experimenting with the setting on your OLED brightness ranges between different media outlets. Especially if you use it for gaming, but it does come with an adaptive feature that for brightness that helps with generic media switching.

Awesome TV with crosshairs
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Picture looks great, I'm a Sony fan due to how good there motion is on low as I'm susceptible to the soap opera effect. When I compare this to the other top 2 here are my favorite feature. I think the rest of the stuff visually is pretty comparable between LG and Samsung. This lets you pick crosshairs and only comes on when you start playing PS5, cxrosshairs are dot, cross and something else. You can also pick your color. I think I'm a better player cause of this feature otherwise im old and kind of suck at gaming but i enjoy it. The other feaure is using settings to quickly go into eco mode, I like this to basically dial down the tv for late night viewing. AKA I sleep with the tv on so i want it dimmer and also the sound to stay at the same level so it doesnt wake me up when youtube decides to put on 10 second ads and crank up the volume. This is a 65" I bought. I went from a Panasonic Plasma 65 in the spare room. I enjoy the contrast much more on this. You shouldnt have buyers remorse. Also overall for what it is the sound is clear and enjoyable for casual gaming or watching tv. Again CASUAL, means it wont make your ears bleed. Nice job Sony.

Absolute Gem of a TV
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.4K Flat Screens haven't been around that long, and the quality on some is lacking. But the Sony Bravia 8 OLED 4K exceeded my expectations immediately. I couldn't believe how clear and crisp the images were. And the colors are perfect. I love the fact that the darker images aren't unaccessible to the eye by being too dark.
