Customer Ratings & Reviews

Excellent TV. I purchased an open box for $500 off the sale price. Once you dial in the settings, the picture is excellent. Due to the operating system and build quality, I decided on Sony over SAMSUNG and LG. Research showed that Samsung has lost its way with quality control and LG OS become sluggish over time. Brightness was not a issue as its dark room.

I've had this TV for one day and I really love it. I watched local TV news, streamed NCIS on Paramount Plus (although strangely the pause function doesn't work, but that's an app problem) and then streamed Greyhound on AppleTv+. Greyhound looked and sounded so real in Dolby Vision and Atmos. Best Buy did a superb job of setting up the three new Sony TVs and two Yamaha receivers. I only wish this came in an 83 inch.

The picture is the best I have ever seen on a screen. No issues, except one small gripe. The plastic cover surrounding the screen while it was in the box somehow left a residue on the bottom right of the screen. I don’t dare try and remove it or clean it. You cannot see it while the screen is on, but it is slightly annoying to look at for it being a many thousand $$$$ screen. Makes me wonder why they couldn’t have applied a protective film in addition for the packaging. Small issue. The picture on this screen is magnificent.

Outstanding contrast and colors, perfect size 77”) for viewing from 8 feet away.

Great TV. Excellent motion handling. Great performance with colors. I do wish the highlights could get brighter, or that the colors could pop more. Regardless, the TV looks great. Brightness can really pop in Dolby Vision and my complaints quickly fade away. I didn't even know about the reality creation feature until I was fiddling with settings. It is an amazing feature that you should try if you own a Sony that supports it. It can bring about some details that can be hidden, even in 4k native content. Low res content gets a nice detail bump from it. This TV does come with quirks that may effect you. As of the firmware out in November 2024, when you want to use Dolby Vision from a video source, like an AppleTV, and 120hz/VRR signal, like from a PS5, and you connect them to the same HDMI source through an AVR, like a Denon x4800h, you will unfortunately not be able to activate both the PS5 or AppleTV's fullest features without continually flipping through Enhanced and Enhanced/VRR settings on the Sony. You can get either Dolby Vision at 24hz or 60hz, but you cannot also get 120hz/VRR when you switch your AVR to the PS5. Vice versa, you can get 120hz/VRR from your PS5, but you won't be able to get Dolby Vision from your AppleTV or UB820-K. This is something to do with the EDID and effects others Sony TVs like the A95L. Sony is aware of the issue and I hope they are working on a fix. You can check their support page if you want to verify the issue. You will also find this issue discussed on AV Forums. The workaround is to hook one device up AVR and one direct to the TV. For me that meant the PS5 goes directly to the TV and my video sources to the AVR. While it isn't currently effecting me, it kind of sucks that now I actually do need to worry about the HDMI 2.1 inputs in the TV because my AVR cannot be fully utilized. First world problems, but maybe this can be fixed with a firmware patch in the future... Other quirks are that this TV sometimes fights me with what audio output mode I'd like to use. I have no idea why it thinks I'd use the TV Speakers over my external speakers, but it happens sometimes. Maybe it is a latency issue with the bootup from the Denon and the TV. Regardless, some niche positives with the TV are that you can see detailed input signal info from a menu option for your standard content as well as a different version of the same information in game mode. This will include color depth, and resolution, audio signal. The game mode detailed info also shows current Hz which updates live. I do wish that game details would stay on the screen longer, but it is at least nice to have. I also really like that I did NOT have to sign into a google account to use the TV and that it did not try to hide that option. Because I didn't sign into google, I am not dealing with all the bologna ads and bloat. It lets you set it up as a "dumb" TV, or at least as close as we can get to a dumb tv today.

The unmatched crisp quality or color and contrast is just the beginning of this unit. The unlimited settings and features seem endless as I enjoy every Movie, Sports events, even my grandkids favorite animated movies. I would recommend this to anyone wanting the highest quality at a mid level price.

Great picture, easy to set up and use. We spent plenty of time viewing in the showroom before making a decision which model we would ultimately select, the A8 OLED. Received very good advice….don’t fret over small differences when looking at them side by side….when viewed in your home there will be no comparisons to be made.

TV setup was straightforward and easy with two people. Super convenient that the stand legs can be attached at two different widths and heights on the TV. Picture quality is wonderful. Built-in picture modes are pretty well optimized and there are plenty of tools for individualizing (as well as some audio sliders). PS5 and Xbox Series X games are beautiful and lag-free. There's a Dolby Game mode, plus the 'regular' game picture mode. Speaking of audio, the spatial speakers work well and provide a nice little 3D effect, for media that supports it of course (from my experience, mostly newer video games and Blu-rays). One of my favorite features is an auto-slideshow option that helps prevent burn-in (and are beautiful, like the pics that would be on a store display). Only downside for me so far is that the TV gets used half the time for standard (480p-720p), older television shows. TV has post-processing and sharpness options to help accommodate for this. From 20+ feet away, the programs look perfect, but from my normal viewing distance (about 12 feet), you'll see some pixelation and cloudiness, though this shouldn't be unexpected. All around a wonderful, hopefully decades-plus long, investment.

The tv is excellent. The picture quality is phenomenal. I upgraded from another sony bravia led model and the difference is staggering. The sony suite, when properly configured, is seamless and allows for quick transition between apps/viewing modes.

I’m extremely pleased with the Sony 77" Class BRAVIA 8 OLED (2024). The picture quality is absolutely stunning—vivid colors, deep blacks, and sharp detail that truly bring movies and games to life. I’ve paired it with the Sony HT-A7000 sound bar and RS5 rear speakers, and the audio experience is equally impressive. The surround sound setup creates a full, theater-like experience right in my living room. Setup was simple, and the Google TV interface is smooth and intuitive. This has easily become the centerpiece of my home entertainment system. Highly recommend!

Good deep vivid color. Life-like viewing Great Contast

The TV is as expected. The image looks great the issues are just that there is some artifacting issues that happen in certain movies at 4k. Make sure that you bring a vehicle large enough for this TV to fit vertically. Great TV, it isn't the best value though.

This TV will make you fall in love with movies and shows all over again! It’s an outstanding package for most buyers, delivering stunning picture quality and performance that you'd expect from an OLED display, and a great user interface. While those with deep technical knowledge in televisions may lean towards Sony or other manufactures even more higher-end offerings, this model is more than impressive for most buyers. If you're looking for a top-tier viewing experience and want to avoid the insane prices of the most advanced models this one is the way to go!

I was debating this vs the A95L, but I'm very happy I went with this one. We saved over $2000, and the picture quality is phenomenal. My only gripe is that I expected better Google Assistant integration from Sony. The integration works fine with no soundbar. However, for soundbars I have tried both the Sony Bravia Theater Bar 8 and the Sonos Arc. When either soundbar is plugged in via the HDMI arc port, I cannot control the sound volume via Google Asssitant commands (i.e. "set the TV volume to 10%") because the volume only goes up or down by 1 tick at a time. I contacted Sony and was escalated to tier 3 support before being informed that there is no workaround for this issue. I ended up sticking with the Sonos Arc over the Sony soundbar, however, since at least Sonos has a dedicated Google Home integration, which at least allows me to say "Set the *soundbar* volume (not TV volume) to 10%". That voice command was not working at all with the Sony system, so I was forced to use the remote control. So, if you need Google Home integration for this TV I would recommend going with a Sonos soundbar instead of Sony. I hope this saves somebody the many hours we spent investigating the issue. Otherwise we are very happy with our purchase!

This is an OLED TV. I do not recommend for outdoors or for watching in brightly lit rooms. I knew this going in. We have this TV in a room which has variable lighting, and I have automation which dims the lights automatically when the unit is powered on. Don't' get me wrong though. The TV can be used with typical room lighting. I'm just being a perfectionist. That all being said, this quality of the picture is outstanding. This is a videophile's TV. OLED is known for its deep blacks. This TV does not disappoint in that regard. I found that the default contrast was too much, so I lowered the contrast slightly. I have the unit connected to an external 7.2.4 Atmos sound system. When she watches by herself, my wife likes to watch and listen to the TV sound. But for me, the external sound is way better than the TV sound. Since the TV features eArc, Atmos and other hi-res sound formats can be piped from the TV to the external sound system. This allows steamed content with Atmos to come fully alive. Not to mention the bass! The AppleTV TV app is buggy. It randomly switches into sub-title mode even if the material is English. No problem with other TV apps - Amazon, Curiosity Stream, Netflix. Since I have an AppleTV+ box, I use that for watching AppleTV. OLED TVs can have burn-in issues. This TV has features which minimize and even correct burn-in. But I still try to avoid keeping stable content on for long periods.

When we purchased this TV, I was looking at other, equally impressive televisions. But the salesman mentioned that the Bravia 8 I was looking at was made to be paired with the PS5 gaming system. There are a couple of extra functions that are available when the 2 units are paired together. The only issue I had with the TV so far, the PS5 and TV did not sync seamlessly. I had to google my issues to learn what settings to change to get my game system to work with the Bravia. It's a beautiful picture.

The Bravia 8 OLED TV delivers an outstanding viewing experience with the best quality picture I've ever seen. Whether it's movies or video games, the visuals are stunningly vibrant and detailed, bringing every scene to life. The thin design of the TV adds a sleek, modern touch to any room, making it not only a visual delight when it's on but also a stylish piece of decor when it's off. Overall, the Bravia 8 OLED is a top-notch choice for anyone seeking an exceptional home entertainment experience.

I recently purchased the Sony Bravia 8 OLED and overall, it’s been a great experience. The picture quality is stunning — deep blacks, vibrant colors, and sharp contrast make movies and 4K content look amazing. The Acoustic Surface Audio+ system is also impressive, delivering clear and immersive sound without the need for additional speakers. I’m using it mostly with a PS5, and the gaming performance is smooth and responsive, with support for 4K at 120Hz, VRR, and low input lag. It really enhances the gaming experience. The only reason I’m giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is because I wish it had more HDMI 2.1 ports. Still, it’s a solid premium TV that delivers excellent performance in every category that matters to me.

I stepped up from my Sony 60" Bravia (2009). That was the flagship model back in 2009. This new sony is quick amazing! The OLED technology as well as the 4K clarity is simply almost unreal. I really, really enjoy this TV and quite honest fits perfectly in our living room as it's on a corner custom TV stand. Love this TV and hope it lasts for a while. Will probably get the exact same size if this one eventually dies.

Upgraded from a 70” 1080p to the Sony 77” OLED, and the difference is unbelievable. The picture and sound quality are outstanding, and Sony’s reliability gives me peace of mind. My living room now feels like a true entertainment center!
