Best picture I have seen for the price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is an incredible product. Picture is absolutely amazing and sound is so good that I may not get a sound bar (which I had planned to do.) User interface only ok; the Sony I had from 10 years ago was better. I wish I had not installed Google TV. Quite a nuisance. As for the TV itself I could not ask for more. To qualify my response I mostly watch sports and movies. Hockey is amazing on it.

Purchased Over Samsung
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've had a few Samsung TVs over the years and grew tired of the problems that would develop after 3-4 years with usage. So far everything is amazing on this TV with the exception of the output level of Bluetooth sound. I have to turn the TV volume up to 70 or more of the max range to hear at a normal level with the external speakers volume at max. I've seen another few reviews stating the same. The TV speakers play normal though with the normal volume setting at 24-28. I've looked for a setting that increases the output level but have had no luck. Playing through a home theater system is not an issue either, just Bluetooth. I'm not a Google fan so I do not use any of those features associated with the TV or internet. I predominantly use this TV for watching streamed programming through my Roku and 4K disk movies from an OPPO player.

Posted .Hi JasonJ,
We are sorry to hear about the low volume output you are experiencing with Bluetooth speakers on your new BRAVIA XR TV. This behavior is sometimes caused by a volume normalization or dynamic range setting.
Please try navigating to the Sound Settings menu and look for Advanced Settings (or Audio output), then find and change the Dynamic Range setting from Standard to Compressed. Compressed mode increases the overall audio level, which should significantly boost the Bluetooth output without needing to use volume 70+. If this does not resolve the issue, un-pair and re-pair your Bluetooth speakers.
Thanks for choosing Sony.
Best regards,
Eliab

Sony-65” class Bravia XR8B OLED TV
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had this for a week now and the picture is awesome. The sound is also decent (I did not get a sound bar as I already have a surround sound system by Sony). Tim at my local store was awesome as well as he spent over an hour talking me through the differences between brands. Delivery was quick and went off without a hitch.

Great price per value
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great picture and tech is amazing like the AI features, only issue is some handshake issues with older Sony sound bars but I mean it is what it is, the power saving mood is a little annoying, if you pause something for a hour the TV shuts off even when eco mode off.
