Great TV. Very nice picture. It is in a bright room and you can see it well. It seems bigger than the same size LG TV that we have in another room. It comes with a nice stand. It is not as intuitive as LG TVs with their menus and apps. The remote that comes with it is junk. For the cost of the TV it's cheesy. Suprising.

Amazing TV! Great for watching TV shows and playing PS5 games even in brighter rooms. My old TV would get significant glare from the natural light coming in but this TV fixed that problem! The speakers work fine but you'll be much better if you add a soundbar. My only regret is not getting a larger size for my setup.

We decided to replace our SONY XBR-65X850B. We had a Best Buy representative come to our home to see what TV would work best in our home because on a sunny day it was hard to see our old TV picture. The room is very bright during the daytime. He recommended a new SONY XR X93L which has much brighter and clearer picture than our older SONY. An OLED TV would not have been a good fit for our bright and sunny room. We do not use the TV sound system, so we did not rate it, because we use an AVR with 5 speakers and a subwoofer surround system. The Best Buy representative gave us great advice on upgrading our system.

I've had the X93L for about three weeks now, and I'm still amazed at how good this set looks. My living room is really really bright, as it has a south facing window wall for passive solar gain. Because of this, it's a challenge at certain times of the day to watch the TV. This beast, with it's super bright Mini LED panel and great relflection handling, meets the challenge. The operating system is very responsive, and intuitive to use. I'm really happy with this purchase. Oh yeah, not to forget, but it also works and integrates flawlessly with my PS5.

Color is great, picture quality is generally fantastic and better than anything I've owned before. That said, there are some big issues. The Google TV interface has continued to go downhill even since I bought the TV a few months ago with more obnoxious ads on the homescreen and less ability to customize the interface. Sony appears to be even worse than the standard interface with fewer customizations possible. The second major issue that I wish I had read about before buying the TV is that the anti reflective/anti glare coating has a bizarre rainbow glare that is super distracting when there is a point source light like a lightbulb. There are other brands that do a much better job and if I had known how bad this was I would have bought something else. Sounds quality without an external system is pretty low, but maybe better than others.

I recently purchased the Sony 65" Class BRAVIA XR X93L Mini-LED 4K UHD Smart Google TV (2023), and I am thoroughly impressed! The picture quality is absolutely stunning—vibrant colors, deep blacks, and incredible detail, especially when watching 4K content. The Mini-LED technology really makes a difference, bringing out the best in every scene.

After several days of tinkering with the plethora of tuning options, we now have this TV sparkling with super sharp detail (without those wavy lines you can get when the sharpness option is too strong) and very bright (without oversaturating the images). You can definitely tell when a broadcast is in 1080 and when it isn't. But the tinkering reduces that difference without compromising the sharpness or light of the modern-day broadcasts. I highly recommend this TV.

Great picture. Good price. Mini-LED cheaper than OLED but with no burn-in problem.
Smart TV features are good. The fact that my phone and TV run the same OS - Android - makes integration easy. Screen casting from my Android phone is painless. I can install the same Android apps on the TV from the Google play store as on my mobile phone is a very nice feature. My TV can be my media center for streaming video and music. The optical digital audio output of the TV can be connected to a high end stereo system for a top-class audio experience.

We decided to splurge on this TV because it was going in a brightly lit living room with windows all around. We essentially never experience glare, and the brightness in “vivid” picture mode is great for especially bright days.
We paired it with the Sonos Arc and mini subwoofer and are very happy. At 10 feet of viewing distance the 65 inch size is all we needed.

Our living room gets all day sun, and this tv is replacind an older sony LCD TV, and we ate seening a step up in both definition and contrast, and brightness. Haf to turn off all the power saving settings and change the presets for HDR to look the best can be. Side egfect from that we see a slight blooming on some news prompter, thinking I need some sort of calibration, need yo research on that. Overall, very happy with this TV.

Bought this TV to replace a Sony 930D that I had for years. I considered going with the A80L OLED, but ended up going with this Sony mini-LED set since we have a lot of natural light in the living room. SO GLAD I did that. This mini LED gets so much brighter than expected. Sony's processing does a great job managing the blooming.

We recently purchased a 65" inch Bravia XR X93L television for our downstairs living room, and we absolutely love it! We wanted a slightly larger TV (this replaced a 55" Sony), but one feature that closed the deal was the adjustable feet on this TV. We have this on a nice-sized TV stand, but the larger TV's often require a large footprint. With this feature, we were easily able to fit this TV on our stand.
Beyond that, and more importantly, this is an outstanding TV. We have 2 other Sony's in our home, and everyone of them offer up some of the clearest pictures we have ever seen. Another cool feature on this set is on the back of the TV, where Sony has designed snap on units which cover all of your exposed wires, etc., giving you a very smooth look!
The picture and performance on this set is simply amazing, and we look forward to several years of entertainment!

I researched and viewed different oled tvs then i came across this model being displayed at the store. I went through the different demo modes on 4 models and the picture on this one just seemed more crisp and brighter. I get the true black with oled models but that honestly is never my focus. My true focus is video games and movies. I stream the majoritt of my content but even antenna channels come through great. This last superbowl had me more interested in the colors than the plays. The procedsor in this thing is producing great images with put any noticable blur. I have it mounted to the wall with dynamic leds to carry the image colors even further and this tv offers extra panel that cover over all the hdmi etc plugged in and allows the perfect surface for the led light strips. "Hey google " can turn on/off the tv and be incorporated into different google home commands/routines and the apps and extra features put it all there for easy use. The remote is a mewer style and its functions are more refined to onscreen. Basically things are moved around a bit from previous models, but this takes little time to master. My sony receiver still operates the same and is arc linked to turn on automatically with the tv. My playstation is way more enjoyable and excitinh with the bigger bright screen. Prior tv 55 invh sony x900E. I think for the price and the size this was the inmistakable winner against the rest.

This TV is excellent . We like the design, fits nicely into our decor. I love the quick menu feature. The picture is detailed and the brightness is perfect. We normally don’t need all the brightness that is available but it is nice to have. The sound is great for internal speakers but we have a sound bar. Would recommend it and buy it again.

Much better picture than my 8 year old TCL. Was worried i might regret not going OLED, but this picture is amazing for the price. For a living room with large windows, i think the extra brightness of the LED makes up for it. Dont see any reason for 8K tvs and in the next 8 years we should see a winner of the brightness and contrast wars.
