Complicated Without Reason.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This Sony tv gives a great picture......absolutely beautiful. My complaint with tv is that there are dozens and dozens of options and settings that have to be made before you can watch tv. I was making calls to my cable company for help and then to Sony for help. It was like programming a computer. Sony has lost sight of what a tv is for. For instance, when we turn the tv on, the screen shows you a "home page" where you have a dozen or so choices of other places to go to. Nonsense! How about turn on the tv and get a tv channel? We had to find the option for that. That should be the default.

Posted .Thank you for your feedback, PaulG!
We are delighted to hear that you find the picture quality on your K-65XR8B to be great and absolutely beautiful—that is what we aim for!
We sincerely apologize for the initial frustration you experienced with the setup process and the number of options and settings. We understand that making the TV functional shouldn't feel like "programming a computer," and we regret that you had to contact both your cable company and our support team for help.
We appreciate your specific suggestion regarding the "Home" screen default. Your point that turning on the TV should lead directly to a TV channel is a valid one, and we understand why you feel that should be the default setting. We designed the current smart interface (Google TV) to offer a centralized hub for all streaming apps and inputs, but we recognize that for many customers, the traditional TV input is the priority.
We will certainly pass your detailed feedback to our product design teams. Thank you for bringing this crucial usability concern to our attention.

||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Features galore, beautiful picture, works amazingly with a PS5. Why only 4 stars? Only 2 of the 4 HDMI ports are 2.1 one of which being earc, so it limits options

Posted .Thank you for sharing your detailed feedback, James!
We are absolutely thrilled to hear that you are enjoying the "Features galore" and the "beautiful picture" of your K-65XR8B television, and especially that it works amazingly with a PS5. Delivering a top-tier gaming and viewing experience is our goal!
We appreciate your honest comment about the HDMI ports, and we understand why you limited your rating to 4 stars. You are correct that the XR8B series is equipped with four HDMI inputs, with two of those supporting the full HDMI 2.1 specification (4K/120Hz, VRR, ALLM). One of those HDMI 2.1 ports is also dedicated to eARC/ARC functionality for connecting a soundbar or receiver.
This configuration is standard across many premium TV lines, but we certainly recognize that for users who have multiple next-gen devices, dedicating one of the 2.1 ports to audio limits their options. We value this feedback as it helps us assess connectivity needs for future models.
Thank you again for choosing Sony!

Great TV, but dim
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Most everything is truly great, but the brightness is too low for our room even with all the adjustments we can make. If you have a dimmer room this is an awesome TV, but if it is not dim then get something with better brightness.
