Sony BRAVIA 8 II 55" QD-OLED TV vs Sony BRAVIA XR8B OLED 4K Google TV
Both are Sony OLEDs with Google TV, so the real split is size, panel type and motion. The BRAVIA 8 II is a 55-inch QD-OLED with richer color at wide angles, but its listed 60 Hz refresh makes it the weaker pick for gaming and fast sports. The 65-inch XR8B gives you a bigger picture and 120 Hz with VRR, which most reviewers and owners rate as the better all-round set. Buy the 55-inch for a smaller room and color-critical viewing; buy the 65-inch for size and gaming.
- Choose the BRAVIA 8 II if you sit close in a smaller room and want QD-OLED color that holds up off-axis.
- Choose the XR8B if you want a bigger 65-inch picture with 120 Hz and VRR for games and sports.
