Pros & Cons
Pros
Updated to include the xr77a80k, as well as clarifications on settings. Legs are easy to attach, but you need help to stabilize the tv while you do so. Different placement options for the feet are very nice.
Google tv is severely underrated. But after that, the tv is just truely amazing.
With 8 million plus self lighting organic light emitting diodes, the * are perfect. The good:*infinite contrast due to oled technology.
The tv has 5 speakers that come through the screen. The subwoofers really add to the fullness in sound. There is a 7 band eq in the deeper sound menu which helps a lot.
Panel is bright enough to combat some glare and the picture quality is so much better than my old bravia. It has some glare, but nothing too intrusive during the day. Specular highlights are brighter (1100+ nits for the 950 vs. Nit for the a80k) whate... Read More
Cons
Trying to reconnect via casting on my android just results in infinite swirling. Even the remote through the google home app only works 50% of the time. This is a know issue with the sony tvs, so now the motherboard has to be replaced.
Picture feel and literally looks like a led tv. Way too bright many things are overexposed in highlights. Color tones on lg 100% better.
This is not the sony from the past where their claim to fame was quality and customer care. I wouldn't recommend sony to anybody, customer service is a joke. No clear brand or win anymore.

Overall i am quite impressed out of the box with the quality of the a80k bravia and although it’s not perfect it’s meeting my e... Read More
I'm trying not to be too judgemental, otherwise i'm still very happy with the tv.
The inputs are very accusable with four hdmi one being arc for the soundbar.
The audio quality on the samsung tvs were hot garbage and the tv was slow as dirt.
Packaging/appearance
Using my the microphone on the firestick remote, i can simply state any title of media and it will show me every option to cons... Read More
A nice feature is they still have a optical input for those wish to use that option on the soundbar.
My led tv developed some sort of light leakage that resulted in a large spot displaying on the screen.
The best part was that they took the packaging with them so i didn’t have to haul it to the curb.
Competitiveness
As i had ordered a soundbar, that required adjusting the feet before installation.
This tv also has great rich sound that shines with a soundbar.
It’s nuts how much difference a basic soundbar can make, no base unit, no satellite speakers.
You do not need a soundbar for this tv.

This xr65a80k i purchased was to replace an xr65x950h the 950h is a very competent tv and is still in use in a bedroom but even as good as it is with its local dimming the idea of zero blooming appealed to me
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
The inky blacks are only part of the story here the clear distinction of a specular highlight against a far dimmer area create a far more enjoyable movie experience
