Product Reviews

I am deaf and need subtitles for my viewing. I have 2 other televisions which cost me around 10% of the sony, with these I ask for subtitles press the sub title button once and while the TV is on receive subtitles all the time even when I change channels. With the Sony I have to press 3 buttons to get the subtitles and when I change channels I lose the subtitles. Do Sony think deaf people have a miraculous return of hearing or do they not care? I am totally unable to receive subtitles on BBC Iplayer, sometimes get it on Amazon Prime

Picture quality with deep black and natural tone rendition. Sound system is so good i have stop using my sound bar.

Picture quality is good and the functions are easy to use. I like the thin legs and general design. I have a Kilpsch speaker with built in Google assistant, I am disappointed that I cannot have the " Google " TV sounds also play over this speaker .

Have had the TV for over a year, and pretty much has the gimmicks of a Smart TV with great resolution. Love using the TV as a screen saver in background when there are guests. Sony Quality as expected.

Excellent Tv would recommend to friends …. Constantly learning as I use finding new features daily live its slimline design too excellent picture quality I must but

This is the best TV (or smart display) I've ever had in my life. ARC works flawlessly. Audio is stunning and the fact I can connect virtually any Bluetooth headphones makes it great. Image quality is the most life-like you can get. And if you're the happy the happy owner of a PS5, THIS is the display for you. Unrivaled, unmatched.

SRS-NS7 Wireless Neckband Speake. I need connect with my tv without the transmisor direct

Easy to set up even with Roku streaming stick. Awesome picture

I bought this as my first tv for my first home. It's a pleasure to watch.

The TV is great. I love the Google TV, it could use more apps. I did have to spend a ton of time getting the TV to brighten up and not auto-dimm. I finally ended up using Dynamic mode and lowering the brightness. I also have the same TV OLED in LG and don't have this issue. Also, seems to need to make the same adjustments in every app because they each have their own picture setting.

Best TV with the best 4K picture along with Dolby Atmos I have ever owned.

How do I put this correctly without having @Sony remove it again - @Sony loves positive feedback but the minute you critique them they remove your post.

Had this tv for nearly 2 years and am very pleased with my purchase, picture quality is good and sound is just about right .

Been using it for more than 18 months now, It is a complete package, no regrets, Audio quality from TV is best for music and movies. Picture quality is also one of the best.

Used in conjunction with Sky, TV is superior quality, great picture and sound. Its UHD so needs a good internet connection if running streaming services. We wall mounted onto a media wall and TV has been a good investment. It has occasional software updates and more features and settings than we use. Happy to recommend this TV.

It matches my stereo & all the other products by Sony I own

I bought this tv earlier this month. I love the picture. Especially for movies with dark backgrounds. I would give this tv 4.5/5 stars. The only downside is that it doesn't get very bright.

This is the best Sony TV I have ever owned! It’s SOOOOO clear and the colors are brilliant. For live events, it feels like I am actually there. Even in bright days it’s easy to see. Makes movie night a real theater experience.

very pleased with the tv , have always had a sony tv 3 so far

Not happy with the product since from start been facing issues which are still unresolved.

best tv too watch movies, tv shows, and relax and watch with 4k ultra movies

This is the 3rd time I've bought a Sony TV since 1988. I like the quality and robust nature of Sony products, and like cars, Sony is the VW, always reliable. On the downside, it has 'Youview' instead of 'Freeview' so currently I can't get 'Encore' the catch up service from Talking Pictures TV. I'm sure one of the Boffins at Sony will want to put this right and will call me on my Sony Xperia 'phone! 😁

This is my first Sony TV in several decades. I upgraded from a Vizio to the Sony A80K and I could not be happier. I find myself wanting to watch TV more now that I am experiencing OLED technology firsthand. I can’t imagine ever going back to anything but the sights and sounds that Sony offers with thisTV

Sony TVs are the best, clearest, and most dynamic TVs on the Market!

Was on sale .. not a common screen size.. I think it’s 73 inch.

A very impressive tv full of features. Only downside is that apps often don’t work for a day or two, then magically start working again. Can find no reason for this so assume it’s an update that takes place. Clarity etc is beyond reproach for most. I would recommend a high end sound system to go with it though…

Hands down the best television I’ve ever owned. I miss it when I’m gone! Incredible clarity, colors, and contrast. I’m truly amazed with the sound. It compares to some of the soundbars I’ve had in conjunction with previous TV’s. I truly love this model from Sony.

I purchased the tv from Sony online uk store. The item was delivered by a single driver who dragged it across my driveway. It was left in its original packaging for 5 weeks before being mounted. It worked for 30 minutes and then did a software update and stopped working. There was a small amount of physical damage on the bottom right corner and due to this Sony would not replace or repair the tv. No investigation into the cause of the failure but due to the damage it was assumed it has been caused by me (due to not being reported in the first 28 days). Sony seem disinterested in working out the true cause of failure or offer a replacement. I have had to buy another tv but this time from John Lewis. Delivered by John Lewis and with full warranty. The tv itself is amazing. The staff I have spoken to and liaised with at Sony have been really helpful and responsive but the company policies and lack of Sony itself taking any responsibility for the damage simply due to me not reporting it within the timescale (missed deadline by 2weeks!) has led to considerable expense. I have also raised a formal complaint and await a response.

Had the tv for just over a year,picture very good sound good but having problems switching channels on.Turn tv on and select live tv &catch up and it freezes have to do soft updates a few times before I can get a picture.Been in touch with Sony told to do a factory reset but still got the problem.Waiting to hear from Sony

I buy and it has the Conn's logo imprint in the tight corner of it.

Love it love it love it love it love it love it love it

I purchased the TV over a year ago. At 1st the picture was a little concerning but overtime the TV adapts to your room, ie the lighting and seating position. I am happy to report now the TV has a great picture and adaps quickly to different light exposure. A couple of times the TV has frozen when switching on but I think that was down to me pressing the remote too quickly. It is easily resolved by interrupting the power supply.Its been ok since I've learnt to be patient with the remote. Overall very happy and would purchase again.

A had the 55inch sony bravia and upgraded to the 65inch a will not go to a nother tv product sony has the best quality a have e er seen

We bought this 13 months ago, fantastic quality picture.

Good fit , light to move, sound bar not needed....

Picture Quality The Sony A80K boasts exceptional picture quality. With its OLED panel, it delivers rich colors, deep blacks, and impressive contrast, making HDR-ready games and high-contrast scenes in movies look stunning. This TV's performance is especially noticeable with HDR content, where it accurately handles the brightest and darkest parts of the screen. Sony's exclusive XR OLED Contrast Pro technology enhances brightness while preserving color density, although it doesn't reach the peak brightness levels of some higher-end OLED models​​​​. Audio Performance Sony's Acoustic Surface Audio+ technology is a standout feature in the A80K series. The TV uses a combination of actuators and subwoofers to create a fuller sound experience, ensuring clear dialogues and robust volume levels. It supports Dolby Atmos sound and 3D surround sound upscaling, offering a rich audio experience even without an external soundbar​​. Design and Build The A80K's design is visually striking and ultra-thin, giving it a premium look. It features a sturdy build. I thought the stands that came with it could have been more sturdy. However we wall mounted it so didn't matter to much. The TV is equipped with a variety of connectivity ports, including four HDMI ports, an AV port, a 3.5mm headphone port, and two USB ports. However, the wide placement of the stands might be a consideration if you plan to place the TV on a smaller table​​. Remote and Connectivity The A80K comes with a newly designed remote, which is ergonomic and features built-in voice control with Google Assistant. It offers Bluetooth as well as IR connectivity options and includes hotkeys for popular streaming platforms. The TV itself runs on the Google TV operating system, which organizes and consolidates apps and streaming subscriptions for a seamless user experience​​​​. Gaming Performance Gamers will appreciate the A80K's gaming-friendly features, including support for 4K at 120Hz, VRR (Variable Refresh Rate), ARC, eARC, and ALLM (Auto Low Latency Mode). The Auto HDR Tone Mapping for PS5 optimizes HDR settings automatically, enhancing the gaming experience on Sony's console​​. Smart Features Additional smart features include the Ambient Optimization Pro, which adjusts image and sound quality based on the room environment and viewer's position. The TV is also compatible with Alexa and supports AirPlay 2 and HomeKit. The Bravia Cam, an optional accessory, offers additional features like gesture control and energy-saving functions​​. Price and Value The A80K is positioned as a premium OLED option. While it offers excellent performance and features, its price point may be a consideration for some buyers. Alternatives from brands like LG and Xiaomi are available for those seeking more budget-friendly options. However, if budget is not a constraint, the A80K presents itself as a compelling choice for its blend of high-end features and performance​​. In summary, the Sony A80K BRAVIA XR OLED 4K Ultra TV is an excellent choice for those seeking premium picture quality, immersive audio, and a range of smart features, making it suitable for both avid movie watchers and gamers. Its design and build quality further add to its appeal, although its price might be a bit steep for some.

Astounding television .no regrets buying it .technology very clever.

Great tv especially for gaming but having issues with a strange noise when certain images n colours appear on the screen.

Beautiful when I use the Smart TV apps, whether I stream Live TV, Movies, or with my BluRay Player.

I can't say enough good about the Sony TV. It's everything, and then some very easy to upgrade. The apps for fantastic just a great t. V.

Purchased this tv about 8 months ago, absolutely blown away by the picture and sound quality straight out box, highly recommend

Great telly 4k very good great for movies 🎬 very happy

So, I’m big into my TV’s and big into Sony. When I initially pulled the trigger on a large oled tv, I went with an LG 65”, which I’ve had for several years now and simply because I couldn’t afford the Sony. When I moved house this year, I had cash to burn and a bigger wall space to fill so decided to get back to my beloved Sony and went for the 77” version of this A80K. I bought it from John Lewis and encountered an issue straight away - it wouldn’t turn on or off via the two included Sony remotes, it would only come on by switching a plugged in external device. JL were great and came out and swapped it for a new one. Once set number 2 was in place, all inputs were set and picture settings tweaked, it just felt like this newer set didn’t look as good as my alder LG set, and this really surprised me. The blacks didn’t seem as deep or smooth, peak brightness wasn’t as good and the motion processing was as poor as it is on LG sets. That last one is huge for me and why I’ve always preferred Sony, but there was no improvement here. About 2 months in to tv number 2, I started experiencing weird issues such as the screen blinking, black scenes flickering and the picture going off altogether! I contacted JL again and they sent engineers out to replace the main board. They did this but I didn’t really get chance to see any change because about 3 minutes after they left, I got a green line down my screen and it went off altogether and wouldn’t come back on! From here, they contacted Sony and had the tv replaced, AGAIN! It’s so far so good in terms of faults with this set, but I feel constantly nervous that something is going to go wrong and I still feel like the picture quality isn’t up to that of my older LG tv! One thing I will say is that the customer service from JL and Sony has been fine in terms of replacements, but the whole experience has been an absolute pain and not left me feeling overly happy about my purchase, which is a shame as it will be some years before I splash out again and will be completely torn on the brand I go for!

I bought the tv a few weeks ago. Great picture, great sound and straightforward to install. Not sure about the need for two remote controllers. Surely everything could have been incorporated into one.

I have bought this TV over the newer Sony A80l just because it was cheaper by like $400 at store for the same TV. At store after side by side comparison with lgc3 and samsung s90c I decided A80l looked more accurate. Owned for a month now and after a few tweaks with the settings to my liking, its looks way better than the panasonic st60 plasma it replaced.Just sharing my settings hoping it may be helpful to someone, I’ve kept picture settings at Picture mode - dolby vision dark, light sensor- off, Brightness-40, contrast- max, Gamma -0, HDR tone mapping-Brightness preferred, Black level -50, Black adjust -Off, Advanced contrast enhancer - medium, Peak luminance- high, color-50, Hue-0, Color temperature-Expert 1 , Live colr - low. Sharpness-50, Reality creation- Auto Noise reduction- Auto. Smooth gradation- low. Motion flow - auto. Cine motion- High

The TV lasted 10 months score the screen died and a red flashing light lit up. This seems to be a known issue - Sony customer support poor and I’m still waiting for a replacement TV which is either arriving Monday or Thursday depending on who you get to speak to. Won’t be buying a Sony product again or using Richer Sounds who I bought from and weren’t at all helpful

brilliant picture. I've owned Sony XBR TVs for over 20 years.

Can not say enough great things about our new Sony , Right out of the box perfect set up, easy to control, Price was up there but we really wanted this TV , The picture is beyond words, sound is super, we do have the sound bar set up from Sony also, which was a breeze to set up, did see some reviews about the remote, but hey it works great for us, also have the Sony 4k player hooked to tv also, overall if you want the top in Sony it might cost you, but if you look at other Tv prices its not that bad

I have to say this is got to be the best TV I’ve owned, picture quality is superb the build quality and feel is very high end👌 My one reservation with the TV is the earc HDMI doesn’t support the transfer of signal to my Naim Muso 2, which is a real pain as my media wall has been designed and built around these pieces of kit! The Muso works with my other older TVs through the HDMI and also works with a digital optical cable from the Sony TV, I’ve spoken with Naim who’s customer services are second to none and have been advised that the Sony updates are monthly and other companies can’t keep up with the changes! Such a shame and I now need to reroute a digital optical cable to have a signal to the Muso, not ideal and a good bit of work but hopefully I can use as meant to be and no loss of quality 🤞

So far so good, brilliant picture and amazing sound, that good I haven't put the sound bar back with this New Sony, does not need it. Easy set up and really pleased all round. Great job Sony.

Excellent,Excellent, Excellent TV, Highly recommend this TV you will not regret it.

Have not reported this failure to either the vendor or sony (only a minor annoyance),but have lost thr input on HMD1.Survivng with other three.Hopefully this is not a a warning of future problems.Apart from that all good.

This product doesn't have a channel 4 app for some reason. Have to watch using a web browser app. The voice search also doesn't search apps like itvx, only pure streaming apps.

The clarity of the picture is fantastic, sharp images and appears to be 3D in nature witht the subjects.

Only had just over a week, easy to set up, great picture and sound, looks good in room
