Sony BRAVIA XR8B 77" OLED TV vs Sony BRAVIA 8 II 65-inch OLED TV
Both are Sony OLEDs with 120 Hz panels, Google TV and four HDMI ports, so the real split is panel tech and size. The 77-inch XR8B gives you a much bigger picture for a large room, while the 65-inch BRAVIA 8 II uses a QD-OLED panel with Sony's highest OLED brightness, wider color volume and Acoustic Surface Audio+ that vibrates the screen itself. Owners rate the XR8B well but not spectacularly, and reviewers consistently praise QD-OLED sets like the BRAVIA 8 II for punchier highlights and richer color in bright rooms. Buy the bigger XR8B if distance and wall space allow; step to the BRAVIA 8 II if you sit closer and want the better panel.
- Choose the Sony 77-inch XR8B if you sit far enough back that a 65-inch screen feels small and you want the biggest OLED picture for a wide seating area.
- Choose the Sony 65-inch BRAVIA 8 II if you sit within roughly 8 to 10 feet and want the brighter QD-OLED panel, wider colors and screen-based sound.
