- Is this TV good for movies?
- Yes for size and detail: 4K resolution and HDR give a sharp, colorful picture on a very large screen. Black levels are only average because the panel is edge-lit, so dark scenes look less deep than on Sony's full-array sets.
- How does it compare with Sony's X90 series?
- The X90 line uses full-array local dimming, which gives deeper blacks and better contrast. This X81 set is edge-lit, so it trades some picture quality for a lower position in the lineup and a bigger screen at the same level.
- Do I need a soundbar?
- Most owners of large LED TVs add one. The built-in speakers handle everyday viewing, but a soundbar or AV receiver gives clearer dialogue and real bass for movies.
- Can it be wall-mounted?
- Yes. It uses a 400 x 400 mm VESA pattern, so look for a mount rated for well over 100 lbs. At about 97 lbs without the stand, plan on two people for the lift.
- What is in the box?
- The TV, its stand legs, the remote, batteries and the power cord. HDMI cables are not included, so buy them separately for your console or streaming device.
- Does it have Bluetooth and Wi-Fi?
- Yes. It has dual-band 802.11ac Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 4.2, so you can stream wirelessly and pair headphones or a speaker.
