What Experts Agree On

What Experts Love

  • โœ“ Previous-gen QD-OLED flagship panel with screen-radiating Acoustic Surface Audio+
  • โœ“ XR Processor and the full 4K120 PS5 gaming bundle
  • โœ“ Genuine 77-inch QD-OLED, a size the current BRAVIA 8 II does not offer
  • โœ“ Still an excellent panel class for dark-room home theater

Common Criticisms

  • โœ— A 2023 model superseded by the BRAVIA 8 II, so it is a previous generation
  • โœ— Only the 77-inch size remains on Amazon; the 55 and 65-inch versions are discontinued
  • โœ— Supply is thinning, which is an availability and price-stability risk
  • โœ— Its Amazon listing still reads Latest Model, which is marketing cruft and untrue
