Q: QuestionHow does this model differ from the XR55A80L, other than it's $200 more?(2 answers)
A: AnswerHi Paco, Hi Paco, Thank you for your interest in the Sony Bravia 8! The Sony A80L and Bravia 8 are both exceptional OLED TVs. Below are some key differences between the two: The A80L is powered by Cognitive Processor XR while the Bravia 8 has XR Processor. The 2024 XR processor of the Bravia 8 is new, so it is better at performing the functions of the 2023 processor, plus scene detection for color, advanced facial recognition for more precise images, and Anime facial detection for smoother lines. Voice Zoom 3, Acoustic Center Sync 2.0 (soundbar required), 10% brighter, thinner design, 4-way stand position, and an improved audio system. For a more precise comparison, please visit your local retailer. Or refer to our website at https://electronics.sony.com/. We are looking forward to your purchase. Thank you for considering Sony! Regards, SamAnswered by SonyListens
- A: AnswerHi JD, Thank you for your inquiry! The Sony BRAVIA 8 does not have a specific "sound reduction feature". However, it does include the Advanced Auto Volume feature. This feature helps manage sudden changes in volume, such as those that occur during commercial breaks, by making more powerful adjustments to maintain a consistent audio level. This can help reduce the loudness of commercials and other unexpected volume jumps. Hope this helps! The sleek design and cinematic audio and visuals make BRAVIA 8 the perfect centerpiece for your living space. Our Slim One Slate concept fuses screen and bezel into a single slate, maximizing your experience. Its flush one-piece back accentuates the sleek lines and thin profile of the TV. Pure OLED black and vibrant color brings out vibrant textures and astonishing realism in everything you watch. The screen is the speaker, delivering a totally unique and immersive theater-like sound that keeps you on the edge of your seat. Actuators behind the screen vibrate and turn it into a speaker that delivers clear and immersive sound from the center with the same sound structure as the cinema. The newly equipped tweeter brings out the surround feel to provide a cinema-like experience. Regards, Sam

Sony Bravia 8 — Great TV
This TV was a birthday gift to myself. I’m blown away by the picture quality (previously owned a SAMSUNG 58” about 6-7 years. The sound went out and didn’t play well with soundbars).EASY SET UP — It sets itself up! Very customizable, works beautifully with it’s own soundbar (just plug and play). Gaming mode is impeccable so much detail I was unable to see on my old TV! Great purchase. This TV IS PRICEY — get it on sale and be sure to PRICE MATCH to bring the cost down.

Living room Sony 55in
This 55 in is awesome. I bought for my living room to replace another Sony I bought. The picture is awesome. I also bought the Sony soundbar for it to and was seamlessly connected. Well worth the money.
