Performance
What surprised us most is that even with Sony's Triluminos Pro and Dolby Vision, this TV's picture quality lands in the bottom half of our database. Bright scenes look decent, but dark room viewing is where it stumbles, with grayish blacks and no local dimming to save it. On the plus side, the smart platform is snappy and Wi-Fi 6 is a welcome future-proofing touch. Gaming feels just okay thanks to the 60Hz panel, but ALLM keeps input lag low for casual play.

vs Competition
The Hisense U7 75U75QG (often around $800) gets you far better picture quality with mini-LED backlighting and a 120Hz panel, making it a smarter buy for gamers. The TCL QM7K is another step up, with even higher brightness and richer HDR. If you can stretch the budget, the Sony BRAVIA 9 and Samsung QN900F are in a different league entirely, while the LG OLED evo C6 delivers perfect blacks this set can only dream of. Sony's BRAVIA 3 feels like a step behind all of them in sheer image quality, only winning on pure connectivity and brand loyalty.

Value & Pricing
At $1033, this TV is a hard pass. But we've seen it as low as $263, and at that price, it's a steal for a large smart display. Just know you're paying for size and Sony's brand, not top-tier picture performance. Shop around and don't spend more than $400.
Подробнее
Overview
This 65-inch Sony is a bit of an oddball. It comes loaded with Google TV, Dolby Vision, and killer connectivity, but the actual picture quality is surprisingly mediocre for a brand that usually nails it. If you just want a big, smart screen for casual streaming and don't obsess over deep blacks or high brightness, it's fine. But for the price, you'd expect more punch.
Common Questions
Q: Is this TV good for gaming?
Only if you're playing casual games or using a PS5 in Game Mode. The 60Hz panel and lack of VRR mean it's not built for competitive gaming. You'll get ALLM, so input lag is low, but don't expect smooth 120fps action.
Q: Does it have good black levels?
Nope, that's its biggest weakness. There's no local dimming, so dark scenes look more gray than true black. A Hisense U7 or TCL QM8K will blow it away in contrast.
Q: Can I use it without Google Home?
Sort of. You can skip the Google Home setup if you go through the basic TV setup, but some features might be locked. It's a hassle, and Google really needs to fix this.
Who Should Skip This
If you're after deep blacks, high brightness, or a smooth 120Hz gaming experience, this isn't the TV for you. Go get the Hisense U7, TCL QM7K, or LG OLED evo C6 instead, all deliver far better picture quality for similar or slightly more money.
Verdict
This Sony is tough to recommend unless you catch a steep discount, and now those dips go way lower. It's fine for a living room where you just need a reliable, big smart TV, and the connectivity is top-notch. But if you care at all about movie nights looking cinematic or gaming at high refresh rates, spend your money elsewhere.
