The Sony BRAVIA 8 OLED TV is a stunning piece of technology that delivers exceptional picture quality and smart features. Its OLED display provides deep blacks, vibrant colors, and incredible contrast. The Google TV interface is intuitive and offers a wide range of streaming apps and content.
Pros:
OLED Display: The OLED technology offers superior picture quality with deep blacks, vibrant colors, and excellent contrast.
4K Resolution: The 4K resolution provides sharp and detailed images, making movies and games look incredibly realistic.
Smart Features: The Google TV interface is easy to navigate and offers a wide range of streaming apps and content.
Gaming Performance: The TV's low input lag and smooth motion handling make it an excellent choice for gaming.
Sound Quality: The built-in speakers provide decent sound quality, though a soundbar or external speakers would enhance the audio experience.
Cons:
Price: OLED TVs are generally more expensive than LED TVs, so the Sony BRAVIA 8 may be out of reach for some budgets.
Burn-in Risk: While OLED technology has improved significantly in recent years, there is still a risk of burn-in if the same static image is displayed for extended periods.
Conclusion:
The Sony BRAVIA 8 OLED TV is a top-tier television that offers exceptional picture quality, smart features, and excellent gaming performance. If you're looking for a premium TV with the best possible image quality, this is a great option. However, while the higher price point may deter some buyers, if you can catch this tv on sale it is well worth it!

When my LG CX failed, I was in the market for something to replace it that still gave me great 4k picture quality and good tech - specifically HDMI 2.1 features - to support gaming. Ended up landing on this Bravia Google TV because the integrated Google interface saves me an HDMI spot and the smart interface performs great with no sluggishness and very familiar if you are coming from a Google Streamer.
Only thing keeping this from a 5* is the glass does act like a very good mirror. It still does well in bright rooms, but if you have a light source at the right angle you will see that mirrored on screen.
Still, an amazing deal for a TV of this quality

Best OLED TV IMHO

I always wanted an OLED TV every time I looked at one. I thought I needed to get one, but they were always overpriced. At least that's what I thought. When my old tv broke, I was looking at a lot of options, including mini LED and a QLED tv's and while those looked great and certainly were less expensive, the image was nothing compared to OLED. Once I decided to get an OLED, I was left with which one? It all came down to Samsung, Sony, and LG. While all 3 looked amazing, the Samsung was brighter but didn't have Dolby Vision. And while HDR 10+ is great, most movies I own are in Dolby Vision. The LG was similarly priced and has great reviews. The OS is something I had a bit of trouble with. I've used LG before and haven't liked the experience. Sony, in my opinion, offers the best of all 3. It has Google TV. The interface is fast and smooth. It offers great sound for a TV, and the image quality is amazing. I don't regret spending extra money, and I'm sure if you buy this TV, you will not regret it either.
Hope this helps.

The Sony BRAVIA 8 is excellent for mixed usage. It looks stellar in a dark room, thanks to its perfect black levels, vibrant colors, and great HDR brightness. The TV has modern gaming features, and combined with its excellent image quality, it's a solid choice for gamers. It has solid reflection handling, but it's only bright enough to overcome glare in a moderately lit room, and blacks look gray in a room with ambient lighting; you don't enjoy the same image quality when you flip your lights on. Fortunately, the TV has an incredibly wide viewing angle, making it an outstanding choice for a wide seating arrangement.

Great TV, love the blacks it has bc of the OLED tech. It also has incredibly good color and picture quality. The brightness is also very good. The LG C5 has a bit better brightness but the Sony picture quality seems to be better. I also like the Android TV OS. Its very nice and easy to use. I paid $1400 after tax for an excellent condition open-box and i have no regrets!

Plain and simple our 65" Bravia 8 OLED delivers a high quality experience that covers perhaps the widest range of media. We tend to lean towards more movies and shows than news & sports but have enjoy them all at different times of day and night. We love that our Sony TV's processors delivering content as true to creators intensions as can be. At the same time, has easy access to features to change the viewing settings as quickly as changing the channel. Swap easily between vivid settings for sports to cinema or professional settings for movies in seconds. The new Sony Interface simply brings their features quickly to your fingertips. For our needs we don't see a better performing TV at this price level with its range of specs & features.

Purchased this TV From Best Buy On Saturday 4/5/2025. The Purchasing Experience was horrible. The Sales Representative was not to pleased to sell the TV nether was he pleased that I didn’t purchase Any Extended Warranty. The Bravia 8 has a descent Picture Quality. Brightness is marginal and The Blacks are good. This TV Excels In A Dark when Watching Movies. Pair The TV with A Surround System And The TV Sound Quality Will blow you Away! Owning Two Other W Oleds I’m having buyers remorse. I’m thinking of returning this TV And purchasing A QD-OLED with a little more Color Brightness. Overall this TV is descent For the majority of all people but TV enthusiasts will demand more.

Great TV. It’s really beautiful picture. The worst thing about this product is the remote control. The remote control is super small super tiny extremely fragile and completely falls apart. Every time you drop it. Worst remote control I’ve ever had in 25 years. Last Sony TV I still have the remote and I use it now because the other remote is just a fragile piece of crap.

I love it!! Got some grief from a few friends for “overpaying” for the Sony brand, but I am happy with it. Deep blacks, high refresh rate, quick responsiveness, picture quality is amazing, got it on sale, and it’s a Sony!! It does have reflections and not the brightest, but works great in my TV room.

Sony oled picture quality is unmatched! My current setup is a 65" bravia 8, a ps5 pro for games, a panasonic ub820 4k blu ray player and a 5.1 surround sound system. After some pretty quick and painless setup, I can say I'm incredibly happy with the result. The bravia 8 gets brighter than previous Sony oled panels, includes significantly more gaming features but also demands a hefty price. If you're looking for the utmost quality, though, you absolutely can't go wrong with the bravia 8.
