Four thousand nits is the number everyone is going to quote, and it is the least interesting thing about this panel. What actually changed is how the light gets made. Instead of a white backlight pushed through colour filters, Sony is driving dedicated red, green and blue mini LEDs behind the...

If your Bravia started throwing a black screen at Dolby Vision playback back in July, there is a newer build out and it is worth grabbing, with a caveat you should know before you get your hopes up. The one that caused the mess is 114.602.080.1, pushed to a spread of Sony sets around the end of...

Tom Parsons at What Hi-Fi wrote this up on 15 August and it's a familiar kind of misery. His Bravia 8 II OLED took a firmware update and now anything played through an external source, an Apple TV 4K or a Sky Stream puck, drops audio when routed to his external sound system. The TV's own apps...

What Hi-Fi ran a piece where one of their writers admitted he had been wrong about automatic firmware updates. He spent weeks chasing audio dropouts, swapped cables, went through settings, and it turned out to be the most recent update on his Bravia 8 II. The failure only appears when an...

A What Hi-Fi writer just went public with the argument we have all had here for years: he let his Bravia 8 II take an automatic firmware update and now half his system is out of action. The symptom is oddly specific. Anything arriving through an external source, his Apple TV 4K or a Sky Stream...

Someone spotted a Bravia 6 product page live on Sony's own site and posted the link before it vanishes again. The only thing it actually nails down is that there is an 83 inch model in the line. No pricing, no launch window anyone has quoted, and nothing about panel or processing that I would...

Fell into the XR90 owners thread this morning. It was started in June 2024 by someone who had just taken delivery, opening with the claim that it was the best LCD he had laid eyes on and that anyone coming from OLED would not be disappointed. Two years later people are still posting in it. That...

Someone over on AVForums has a BRAVIA 8 II feeding a stereo rig over TOSLINK and reckons it sounds worse than the eighteen-year-old Sony LCD it replaced. Chain is TV, optical, DAC, Cyrus 8vs2, PMC DB1s. He has already ruled the DAC out by trying an Arcam irDAC and a Cambridge DacMagic 200M and...

Rough one to read. Someone cracked the screen on a 77-inch Sony A80J while trying to flush mount it, the set will not power on at all now, and the replacement decision has to happen this week because an XGIMI Titan Noir Max they backed on Kickstarter is landing at the same time. The original...

Tom's Guide has the Bravia 9 II review up and the verdict is roughly what you would guess. Best backlit set they have tested, OLED-rivaling blacks, almost no blooming, an anti-reflective coating good enough that they call it the bright-room champion. I believe all of it. What I cannot get past...

CNET ran their People's Picks survey again and LG took the overall win, plus the categories for picture quality, fast-moving content and OLED/QD-OLED. The numbers behind it: 61.7 percent of readers who own an LG rated bright room daytime viewing as excellent, 65.1 percent reported inky blacks...
