62 out of 100 medium confidence 16 reviews
The Sony BRAVIA XR A95L receives high praise for its stunning picture quality and impressive built-in sound, with several users calling it the best TV they've owned. However, a significant number of reviews report the sound failing within a year, and one critic notes it's overpriced for being a few model cycles behind the latest QD-OLED tech. Overall, sentiment is mixed: enthusiasts love the display, but reliability and value concerns temper enthusiasm.
