Sony for movies
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve had the 2 main competitors in the oled lineup the LG C1 and this Sony A80J, I can say that you really can’t have everything in one package, the Sony does seem to have greater image pop, however it seems to me that the motion handling is a little better on the LG. As far as connectivity goes, the LG wins, I couldn’t get my apple tv to work on the eARC 2.1 port, it did however work on the other regular ports so that is where it resides now. Overall the LG is a bit better all around tv however if you want slightly better picture quality and gaming/connectivity is not what you are after then the Sony becomes a better choice provided it stays at its $3500 sale price, if it goes back to its MSRP, then LG all the way. If wall mounted both will be the same, if using the pedestal the C1 is more premium.

77" Sony OLED
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Fantastic Picture quality, highly recommend this TV. Even the sound through the built in speakers is good. Only negative is this is my first Sony (My other TV's are all Samsung) and I had alot of trouble setting up the ARC functions with my Stereo and DirecTV receiver. It was super frustrating to trouble shoot (Took Hours and Hours) and I received no help from Best Buy, Geek Squad and Sony. I almost returned the TV I was so frustrated. In the end, my Stereo Manufacturer (Denon) helped me rectify the problems and all is good now. I am fairly tech savoy so I feel for others who convert from Samsung and have a Denon receiver. To save you time, call Denon for help with the ARC settings and all will be good!

Posted .Hi KSteel,
Thanks for your feedback on using your BRAVIA XR A80J OLED 4K TV. It's unfortunate to learn you had experienced a difficulty setting up the ARC feature on your TV and A/V device. The best way to use the ARC feature is to have all the devices connected to the back of the TV and make sure that the A/V system is connected through an HDMI cable, with one end connected to its HDMI OUT ARC port and the other on the HDMI IN ARC port in the TV. We do have some good information on how to use the Audio Return Channel (ARC) feature and troubleshoot problems in case you encounter the same issue in the link below.

Buy It
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Hands down the best TV I have owned. The picture quality is outstanding. I have it in a living room that can be bright and it always looks amazing from all angles. My prior main TV was a Sony 85” that was a couple of years old I moved to a theater room, I thought that was the best TV, not anymore! It’s noticeable more clear and when watching in the dark, when scenes change and the screen is black, it disappears. I have the Sonos Arc/sub and a new Apple TV connected to stream TV etc and it all works together seamlessly. It’s expensive but it’s worth it for a main TV that you can keep for years.

Very bright crisp picture unbelievable resolution. Paired with wireless Sonos surround sound which is fantastic. Christian at the store and Alex and team at install did a great job. Will always get installation service such a great value. Leaned Sony over LG due to I watch movies and don’t game. Very high quality TV. Use 4K Apple TV as interface and it works great. TV turns on and goes to correct hdmi when I turn Apple TV on which is nice.

Mostly perfect
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought the 77" for my family room. This was my first OLED purchase and sadly the room just has too much sunlight. At night the picture was absolutely incredible and the sound produced is the best I've heard from a TV. It was even a little better in my opinion than the 6 year old $400 soundbar that was used on the previous TV. I ended up returning the A80J for a Samsung QN90A and it's definitely a bit better in the daytime, though I don't believe my Samsung handles motion as well as the Sony A80J. I've ordered an A80J for the bedroom which only gets watched at night

Posted .Hi Sumo,
Thank you for taking the time to review your A80J. We're glad you like the impressive picture and sound quality. We value your input and appreciate the feedback. Sony TVs look the best in the darkest environment possible, so it's a good idea to turn off all lighting sources if you really want the best viewing experience. Light from windows and lamps may cause glare on the TV screen. You can always adjust the picture and brightness setting of the TV for any glare concerns. Using a brighter Picture Mode, like Vivid or Standard, will also help reduce reflection while watching TV or gaming.
We regret to know that the unit had to be returned. We do hope you will reconsider our brand and give us another chance at bringing the theater experience to your home.
Regards,
Jess

A Major Upgrade
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've been used to an excellent picture and deep blacks for the past 10 years with my Panasonic Plasma TV. However, this Sony has redefined all of the prior visuals along with stunning clarity and definition! Every day I see more details in dark scenes where I didn't before. I believe it was a tremendous upgrade! BTW, I'm not a gamer, so I cannot comment on any aspects other than Movies and general TV.

Couch Potato Bliss
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have had my Sony 77" A80J OLED for almost 6 months. It has a beautiful picture to say the least, and has been perfect with all of my sources which include cable, an Oppo 203, and both Roku and Amazon Fire streamers as well as the native Google TV. Clearly my best source has been the Oppo and 4K discs. Once you get used to the TV and the picture controls, most sources can look very good (upscaled) - even surprisingly basic 720-1080p cable. I thought 77" would overpower the room - now I want a Bigger one!

Gorgeous
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I struggled to fork over the money for this television with such a hefty price tag. I purchased a 65” online after reading reviews and then returned deciding I really needed to see it in person. Once in the store I coincidentally was drawn to the same tv. After weighing options, I opted for the 77” which I wasn’t sure was worth the difference in price but after getting it home I’m very happy with my purchase. I have indirect light and it can cause a reflection during the day but makes for a gorgeous movie experience at night. It’s sleek and looks like a piece of art with the SANO mount.
