Q: How do I add apple + app to my Sony smart pled 4K tv?
A: Hi Bob, The A8H Android TV does not support the Apple TV+ app. However, the TV supports the Apple AirPlay / Apple HomeKit & you can add an apple tv external device thru HDMI if needed. Thanks! -Vincent
Q: can it be wall mounted ?? thanks
A: Yes. Very easy. Get any of the wall mounts for large tv's
A: My opinion, no. You can do it yourself. Unless you have other systems to hook to it like a surround sound system, game system, etc., it might get a little tricky. If it's just a cable box, hook up the cable from the box to the back of the tv (like you would with any other tv) and follow the onscreen instructions. Keep the "quick set up" guide close and take your time with it. Good luck.
Q: Is the sound very good on this TV?
A: Yes, it doesn't have Dolby atmos speakers. But the speakers are very good, especially for a tv.
Q: how wide is the stance of the feet and how deep?
A: Hello feet, The width and height of the feet in the standard position for the XBR55A8H are approximately 39 5/8 inch (1,004 mm) and 27/32 inch (21.3 mm). In the soundbar position, the width and height of the stand are approximately 42 3/8 inch (1,074.5 mm) and 2 7/8 inch (71.6 mm). Thanks! -Vincent
Q: Do you need a Roku or Firestick to stream Netflix or Hulu with this TV?
A: This tv has it all! Hulu,Netflix,Disney,hbo etc. It already has built in apps, you can download the apps from the app store if they are not on tv..
Q: Does this support HDMI2.1, and if not will a future firmware update support it?
A: Hi PS333, This A8H has certain HDMI features shared with 2.1 like eARC but at this time it supports 2.0b. Our X900H and Z8H models will support this with a software update to be determined. Thanks. Jay
A: Nope, it’s a non backlit plastic remote with squishy buttons. But I’m using my old x900e remote which is better.
