Excellent TV, it needed some slight calibration but for the most part it was about 95% of the way there -out of the box. The build in speakers are a bit “tin sounding”, however, I don’t hold this against it for a review , as I doubt you’re buying this level of TV and not pairing it with some kind of external sound system. All in all I have no complaints about this product.

Very disappointed in the picture quality in broadcast less than UHD. It has a great quality picture in 4K broadcast but not so great in 1080P or less quality broadcast. My old Sharp 80"Aquos LCD 1080P TV had a better picture in a 1080P or 720P than my New Sony. I tried many different settings but nothing I tried compared to the Sharp except in 4K broadcast. I finally ask AI about the issue and it gave me the answer in technical terms about all new 4K TV's. Unfortunately, most broadcast are not in 4K.

Hi RonH,
Thank you for sharing your feedback regarding the Sony - 85" Class BRAVIA 5. We understand your concern regarding picture quality when watching non-4K (HD or SD) broadcasts.
Your TV features an ultra-high-resolution 4K panel (approximately 8 million pixels), which means that lower-resolution content such as 1080P or 720P must be upscaled to fill the larger screen area. On a 85-inch display, this difference can become more noticeable since the original image contains fewer pixels, resulting in a softer or less detailed picture compared to native 4K content.
This is not a malfunction with your TV—it's a normal effect of resolution scaling that all modern 4K TVs experience when displaying lower-resolution sources. Your BRAVIA 5 is designed to deliver exceptional clarity and contrast with 4K content, and it also includes our advanced XR Clear Image to enhance non-4K content as much as possible.
For more details about how 4K upscaling works and why resolution affects image quality, please visit the following link:
Poor picture quality viewing some videos on my HD or 4K TV https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/articles/00026355
We truly appreciate your feedback—it helps us continue improving the viewing experience for all our customers.
Thanks for considering Sony!
