Gorgeous Dolby Vision OLED by Sony
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This TV is absolutely gorgeous. It's my first OLED coming from a Panasonic plasma, and the difference in detail, along with the beautiful HDR is just jaw-dropping. If you can still get this TV, BUY IT! It's plenty bright for my use, Dolby Vision Bright is actually TOO bright for us. Dolby Vision Dark mode is perfect.

Get one
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The picture is amazingly beautiful, edge to edge. Sharp colors and true definition, right out of the box. The only negative is the remote. Its lack of numbers is especially antagonizing when viewing local channels off the antenna. It's irritating when scrolling through all of the 'sub' channels, and one must repeatedly hit the up or down arrows when tuning. For a couple of $$ more, they could have given us a better remote!

The ABSOLUTE best!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It’s as if I’m seeing colors I’ve never seen before. The clarity is superb. I LOVE this television set. It’s the best I’ve ever seen. Only complaint is it would be nice if the hand held control would light up when using. In the evening, with the lights off, it would be easier to see the control selection. Other than that, nothing tops the quality of this set.

1 Year ownership Impression
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought the 65" version of this TV as an open box almost exactly 1 year ago. For the price $1050, I am still happy with it today. I am using it as a secondary tv to a Sony 75-850E (2017 model), in my living area. The new tv is better in every way. I new it wasn't as bright as some other models, but wanted to experience OLED. 4k YouTube videos are INSANELY life-like. Have had many compliments and would buy again at that price 10/10. Best Buy in general has been great to work with. Pricing for most things, when on sale or even open box are generally really good. I will be looking to upgrade the 75" with a Bravia 7, when I can find the right deal.

Sony A80L is awesome
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This TV is amazing. The color is great and motion appears smooth. Blackest blacks I've seen on any TV I have had. Best TV you can get in this price range, in my opinion. I guess that's why I bought it to begin with. At the current sale price, how could I pass it up? The sound quality is pretty good too, but I only used it's speakers for two days before getting the theater system set up.

Great TV. Center Channel needs better explanation.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Let me begin by saying I'm a Sony guy. This purchase is to upgrade my 2016 55" Sony Bravia. I want to say the upgrade was well worth it. Incredible picture and overall great TV. Great job Sony. Now, unfortunately for the letdown. I was extremely excited about the fact that the TV screen would replace the need for a center channel speaker. Not to put blame on any one in particular, but I feel Sony, and Bestbuy should have made it more clear what is required to accomplish this feature. I also should have done a little more research myself. That said, I am now aware that the only way to achieve this is to buy higher end Sony soundbar or AV receivers. By the way, it took 3 calls to Sony Tech support before some one was able to figure this out. All of my components are Sony. However, not high end enough to have the capability to use a feature that I was very excited about. Not sure how to take this, except with disappointment. Again, great, no exceptional TV. But connect ability should be more achievable, without going to the higher end of components. Now I have to purchase another center channel speaker. Thanks.

Sony is the best TV out there.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love the quality of the picture and the ease of setting it up. The sound is very good without a sound bar. Nice and sleek, looks good in the room. My second Sony Bravia. My 17 year old one was still working but I wanted a larger screen. I never had to repair my old Sony.

great TV
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sony OLED is awesome. We are coming from a 10 year old Samsung LED and this is on a whole new level. The A80L was very easy to mount and setup. We have lots of ambient light in the room and no issues with brightness. Upscaling is fantastic on SDR and HDR is almost lifelike. I definitely made the right choice with this TV

Nice tv!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This tv has a wonderful picture with vibrant colors and dramatic blacks. The colors are saturated and deep. Be sure to buy a sound bar or similar accessory audio device to use with it as the internal speakers are pretty inadequate. But I would buy it again!

Sony OLED TV
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This tv gives a nice picture and the sound is good without additional speakers but at times the scene is dark in parts. I am not sure that this tv was worth the high price as our other tv that is not oled also gives a nice picture, though granted not as impressive, and was a lot less expensive. We do like Sony though. The Sony tv we replaced with this tv lasted many years with no issues, so we do recommend this brand and if you don't have any issue with the price, this tv is a good one.
