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.

This is the one
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was upgrading from a 9yo 49" LCD and when I saw this in store I instantly knew this was the one. Absolutely beautiful picture quality. The colors are deep and vibrant. Surprisingly good sound and it's plenty bright. I use an AppleTV with this, but the native Google TV os is sleek and easy to use. Setup was a breeze.

Best ever
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The colour contrast is easily the best I've ever seen. Delivery was excellent and Sony packaging is superb. Wall mounting was easy, the TV only weighs 49 lbs. Setup was also easy, just follow the prompts on the screen. Best TV experience I've had and the TV has the best picture I've ever watched.

Bocanegras Review
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Beautiful picture quality. Not satisfied with the remote control that came with the unit. I would prefer to have one with a numeric key pad to be able to change to a numbered channel. Also, since it is a Google capable TV, I would like to have a Google icon high on the menu to go directly to the site. Lastly, I would have liked the closed caption button directly as a button on the remote. Thanks

Posted .Hi JesusBocanegra,
We're so glad that you like the superb picture quality of this TV. We also understand you would like to use a remote with a numeric pad to manually select and navigate channels. Unfortunately, there is no numpad and Subtitle/CC button on the supplied remote control on this TV as it has a newly design with smaller, sleeker, and less buttons. To display closed captions/subtitles on the TV screen, press the MENU button to access the Control Menu, then select the CC/Subtitle option. It will ALSO display a menu on the TV to use button functions that are not on the remote control on the screen so you can easily enter a channel.
For more details about the supplied remote control functions, refer to this link: https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/articles/00260979
Thank you for sharing your feedback and for choosing Sony!

Great TV just one issue
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had the earlier version of this same TV so, when it was damaged, I replaced it with the same model. The picture if fantastic, it integrates easily with my surround sound system. Controls are easy to use. I use an OTA antenna and this unit has an excellent tuner and also gets the next gen channels very well. My one complaint is that when I watch OTA tv, this tv does not have the capacity to pause the program or to back up and review what just happened (instant replay). Many cheaper models do have that capacity and I was surprised that this tv didn't. But that did not keep me from buying the exact tv again so make what you want of that!

It's fantastic to hear you chose to replace your previous Sony TV with the new BRAVIA 8!

It's also great to know our tuner is delivering excellent performance, especially with next-gen channels.

Sony Bravia 8
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After careful research, we went to BB to look over my top 3 choices for a new TV. An associate, Braeden, helped us choose the Bravia 8 TV after asking where the TV will be located, near windows, in a light or dark room etc. Our choice became clearer as we looked at other sets. Upon installation, all the research and guidance helped us purchase the correct TV for our room. Superior color, super thin unit, very easy setup, and the remote is user friendly. We are extremely happy!

Stunning
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I recently upgraded to this Sony BRAVIA 8 OLED, and it has completely transformed my home viewing experience. The picture quality is absolutely stunning—deep, true blacks, vibrant colors, and incredible clarity. Movies, sports, and even regular TV look more lifelike than ever. The motion handling is super smooth, so fast-paced action scenes look flawless. The sound quality really surprised me too. The Acoustic Surface Audio+ makes it feel like the sound is coming directly from the screen, which adds a lot of immersion without needing a soundbar right away. The Google TV interface is easy to use, responsive, and makes finding content across all my streaming apps very simple. I also like how quickly it connects with my smart home devices and voice commands. Design-wise, it’s sleek and minimal with very thin bezels, so it looks gorgeous mounted on the wall. Setup was straightforward, and everything worked smoothly out of the box. Overall, this TV is definitely premium. It’s perfect for movie nights, gaming, and everyday use. Worth every penny if you’re looking for top-tier OLED quality with smart features built in.
