Our take on the Sony Bravia 8 K65XR80 65" 4K Ultra HD Smart OLED Google TV (2024)
The Bravia 8 K65XR80 is Sony's 2024 65-inch 4K OLED TV, built on an LG Display WOLED panel with Google TV and Sony's Cognitive Processor XR. It stands out for Sony's picture processing, strong motion handling and a design with the panel mounted close to the stand. It suits movie and sports viewers who want deep blacks and wide viewing angles. Against rivals, it lacks the QD-OLED color brightness of Samsung's S90D and the heatsink and higher peak brightness of LG's G4, so it is a step below the brightest OLEDs for daytime rooms.

- Four HDMI inputs, two of them HDMI 2.1 for 4K 120Hz

Questions and answers
- Is the Bravia 8 worth it over the A80L?
- The Bravia 8 is the 2024 replacement for the A80L and adds a brighter panel and the newer XR processor. If you already own an A80L, the jump is modest; first-time OLED buyers get the newer model.
- How does it compare with the Samsung S90D?
- The S90D uses QD-OLED, which is brighter and more saturated in highlights. The Bravia 8 counters with Sony's motion handling, processing and Google TV instead of Tizen.
- Does it support 4K 120Hz for PS5 and Xbox?
- Yes, two of its four HDMI ports are HDMI 2.1 and handle 4K at 120Hz, VRR and ALLM. You get two next-gen console or PC inputs at full rate.
- What is in the box?
- The TV, its stand feet, the back cover, a remote, batteries and power cable. A wall mount and HDMI cables are not included.
- Is it good for a bright living room?
- It handles average light well, but direct sun and big windows wash out OLED highlights. A QD-OLED or a bright mini-LED set holds up better in a very bright room.
- Does it run Google TV with all the apps?
- Yes, it runs Google TV with Netflix, Disney+, YouTube, Prime Video and the rest, plus Chromecast and Google Assistant built in.
