Customer Ratings & Reviews

So far, the TV performs beautifully. I have always had SONY TVs, but my 6-year old X930D recently stopped functioning so I did a lot of research and decided to go with this new OLED and I am really happy with it. The interface is easy to use and very snappy. The picture is incredible. It's my first OLED so I'm still amazed by the contrast and colors. And the high-quality sound made it so I could retire my sound bar. The only thing I could possibly criticize about this TV is its reduced brightness, which I understand is normal for OLEDs. I have a PS5 and a SONY 4K BD Player attached to it as well. I'm overall very impressed by the TV and so long as it is not a lemon like the X930D, I will sing its praises. Hopefully this beautiful TV will adorn my home for decades.

First of all, I am not a 'gamer', so VRR and lack of (2) 2.1 HDMI does not matter to me. What MATTERS is to deliver the BEST possible image quality for movie and regular TV viewing. This, the Sony '65A80J delivers in SPADES! The absolute BLACK blacks, color accuracy (out of the box), and sound from the built in drivers delivers an AMAZING experience! And as a side note, according to a leading consumer testing organization, the Sony 'brand' is the MOST RELIABLE, across the board. What is there NOT to love?

We love this TV - but there are two things that you will need to do to get the picture as vibrant as you see it in the store - (1) It will be set to STANDARD in Settings - Put it on VIVID (2)There is a light sensor setting - you will need to shut that OFF because the TV pictures changes with the light or lack there of in the room! Love it more than ever now! The sound is PERFECT and the set up a piece of cake - it has a mind of its own!

COULD NOT BE HAPPIER with this TV. I was a little worried at first about the lighting before I purchased it because I have a window on each side of the TV in my living room but this TV has not been a let down with the lighting at all! The picture is beyond amazing! I have owned Samsung's, Vizio's, ect and was worried about purchasing my first Sony but I could not be happier. The OLED picture is stunning and this TV is worth every cent. If you are concerned over paying a little bit more for the OLED don't be! Make the jump and purchase this tv you will be glad you did. I did purchase the 5 year warranty to go along with it just because of how great the warranty is and with spending this much money on a tv I thought it would be a great idea to have it. Best TV I have ever owned hands down.

We've had this TV for about a month now and all I can say is I'm completely blown away. The picture is beautiful, great depth, color and it looks great from every angle. I would absolutely recommend the Sony Bravia XR A80J to anyone. I owned two Panasonic plasma TVs when they first came out years ago (one of them is still going strong) and I was always a little disappointed with the LED models that replaced them because the plasma's always had better depth, blacker blacks, rich color and better viewing angle, but this OLED TV is on par with those and on top of that it's 4K. The up-conversion is great as well so everything looks amazing, 4K or not. This is a great TV.

Currently i am using it for gaming, PC, and 4K Blu-rays. 9.5 out of ten for the price and the 120hz refresh rate. Contrast and color are wicked fast. No bleeding affects. No matter what the content is it reacts accordingly. Make sure uoi utilize the ARC for the sound bar. Everything reacts the way it should. Only thing that gets me ia that the sxrwen has like a matte finish when the screen is off. Other than that... All around a great television. I haven't witnessed any burn ins or dirty screen affect since owning this one. Sound quality is a little low from owning other Sony products but it is assembled in to the screen so it feels to have a different impact on the quality sound.

Wow. This TV is amazing. I'm no TV expert, but we upgraded from an old 43" 2017 Vizio, so this TV is the best TV we've ever had. We went into Best Buy with the intentions of shopping the LG C1 Oled, but saw that this TV had a sale going on that made the 65" only $200 more than the LG. Couldn't be happier with the quality. Once you have experienced OLED, there's nothing else like it. And the sound that this Sony produces is just shy of being sound bar quality. We were going to purchase a sound bar but now feel like it isn't necessary. This TV is in a league of its own, and if you're considering it, I say go for it! There have been warnings of the TV not getting bright enough, but I haven't had any issues with that so far.

Excellent picture quality. I purchased a high-quality Sony TV in 2018, and this TV easily provides a much superior picture and sound quality to the earlier TV. Like all Sony TVs, it is reliable and has functioned well for more than a year

Love the picture on it. The software needs to be worked though. WiFi drops frequently and I have a mesh router sitting right behind the tv. Other than that it’s been a solid performer. The colors are amazing. The picture looks vibrant and blacks are deep and fade to and from different shades of black seamlessly.

Got this for Black Friday and we still love it 9 months later. My sister has the same size TV as do most of our friends, but somehow they always mention that ours look bigger. I think it might be a combination of the ratio and that it has such a great picture quality. I also love the convenience of a Google TV since I'm an android person and this makes watching YouTube so easy no matter who's watching. It has great sound too. We haven't even bothered setting up our old soundbar yet.

This is a great TV !! I have the 65A80J. As a note I also have a LG 77” CX and LG 48” CX both also OLED’s. From my review you are going to get an honest home review!! Let’s get a baseline, it took me a few good months to get my LG CX’s to perfection. LG does a horrid job at SD type content, played on anything, so I had to use ROKU ultra devices and up-convert all content to Dolby vision output, and in doing that my LG’s are second to none! I don’t use that crappy 60’s standard that others say the producers want us to view it way, that is back in the 60’s look, white is not white , it’s crap!!! Once you actually view the way a new tv should look then their is no going back at all!!!! So now I got that out of the way, Before the new Sony VRR update I could not get this A80J to look no where as good as the LG’s, yes I tried everything. So I used the Sony to do all the upscaling by using the google TV, now I thought I would hate google tv but to be honest, it’s definitely now second to Roku and a close second. In using the google tv, I got the picture pretty good with practically no artifacts in SD content BUT could not get the colors just perfect like the LG’s. I also purchased the A90J remoter that is backlighted and love that remote !!!! Works perfect on yhe A80J!! Then a price drop happened and I just could not justify returning the tv. Just then Sony came out with the VRR update, as my PS5 still does not have it but I really don’t care as I don’t see problems without VRR yet. So now I figure to use the Roku ultra again and low and behold all content unconverted thru the Roku Ultra is now pretty perfect as my LG CX’s !!!! Colors look identical, blacks and gray are perfect on all TVs, others say nothing was done on the new Sony firmware to do this but Sony did something as it has definitely changed!! To the great also. I love the semi gloss on the 65” it works great no matter what you read test environments say. I had a Samsung glass screen before and now I can see the picture with the glare. I did see some image retention during the initial 100 hours but can not see any now. PS5 is awesome on this set, I have not tried the PS5 to my LG’s and don’t care to, as I know I will never see any lag on either. I read others having issues with eARC and ect… but I have never seen any problem after the VRR update with my audio system or anything. Just a note that on every forum you see people having issues with any brand TV. So end result, buy this tv over the LG C1, unless you get the C1 for 200 or more less than the A80J, and I would not recommend spending the extra for the G1 or A90J at all, save your extra money and buy a newer tv 3-5 years down the road when pictures should actually be better than this model. I love my LG CX’s just a very slight tad more over this Sony but I can not get the CX’s in 65 no more and I got this 65A80J to look great now. Now if I was using internal apps then the Sony just blows away any LG. Hope this helps Thank you for reading Whatever you buy , enjoy !!

Very impressed with the presentation of my BRAVIA XR A80J. Bright, life like colors, many shades of black. Great sound, easy to navigate GUI. I recommend Sony BRAVIA TVs.

Easy setup. Amazing contrast and clarity. Surprisingly good sound. Visually stunning picture. If you are a visual person then this tv is for you. Blacks are deeply black. Best tv I have ever owned.

Wanted a Sony OLED for 4 years. Finally got it a year ago and couldn’t be happier!! Picture is far superior than all other brands. Add a soundbar or home theater set up and you are set!

Like many other OLED buyers, we are Plasma owners. We have a 9 year old 50" Plasma Panasonic, which still works perfectly (with NO burn in). Decided this was the year to finally get an OLED. After much research, the only option for us, was this Sony, 65". We don't game at all. The only snag was, when we plugged in the TV, it came on automatically, for 10 seconds, then shut off for 3 seconds, and kept repeating. I unplugged the TV for 5 minutes and tried again, but the same thing happened. I called Geek Squad and he said, yes, you have a software problem, I'm sending you a replacement. The replacement box was nicer and cleaner, which was a good sign. The replacement started right up, getting started was pretty fast. Seeing OLEDs in a store, on demos, with demo settings is one thing. Seeing it in your home, looking just as awesome is another! I immediately went to youtube and started watching OLED demos, and they were mind blowing. We still use cable, so I was curious how that would look. I had to do a little tweaking to the picture settings, but it looks amazing. The upscaling is really incredible. I've seen a few say this TV isn't bright enough. For us, it was too bright and I lowered the brightness. And this was in standard mode. Vivid is way too bright and, for us, doesn't look good, so we'll never use that setting. I set the brightness to 35 or 40, depending on the show and lowered the color from 50 to 45, and the other setting from "neutral" to Expert 1, to warm up the colors. With these adjustments, it turned out it almost looks identical to the Cinema presets. As great as this OLED looks and as blown away as we were, the biggest shock to us was the sound! We have a 4 year old LG sound bar with sub woofer. While the TV obviously doesn't have the bass of a sub, the overall sound quality was better. We unplugged the sound bar and just use the TV. Our neighbors couldn't believe they were listening to the TV, when they checked it out. Sony is knocking it out of the park on their acoustic technology. We've only had this for 2 weeks, so far, but could not be happier with this TV. If you are on the fence about an OLED, try it out. Breathtaking is the best word for this television!

It has been wonderful, I can see the pictures very clearly and the sound is out of this world, you have to buy one yourself to understand the quality

i had an LG OLED tv it was when they first became available so it's time to go from 55 to 65 inch i looked at the LG C1 and the Sony A80J both sets have outstanding color and roughly the same inputs, but I've had Sony's before and have a soft spot for them, plus a had pretty bad burn in in the LG, granted part my fault for using vivid settings for too long. What it came down to for me was the LG was geared for gamers and the Sony was geared for me. Have had it for a month now and I'm not sorry for my choice. One unfortunate thing is my LG sound bar didn"t like the Sony so I upgraded to a better Sony bar not upset with my choice there either!!!!

Love it so far! Still learning the appropriate settings to use. Motion can be tricky at times because there isn't one setting that I like enough to just plug and leave. But the picture is great. I was nervous switching from a QLED, but I'm happy now. Coming from a KS8000 I miss the super bright highlights at times, but the picture is plenty bright for our living room that has moderate brightness. The sharpness is a huge upgrade. I feel like the colors are every bit as vibrant, if not more so. Again, just doesn't get as bright for highlights. Love it!

Love love this Sony Bravia set! We have a 77” version in the family room and I wanted to add one to the master room…this set is great—picture, color, ease of streaming.

Great Tv, was supprised by the audio qualty. 4k experience top notch. Would definitely recommend. TV appeara to adapt will to lighting in the room.
