Sony Bravia BNDL_K65XR80-WALTS-FTM4390-SC 65"

A killer OLED TV with shockingly good speakers, bundled with a mount and some screen cleaner. Buy it for the panel, not the extras.

The audio is the sleeper hit here. At the 93rd percentile, this thing sounds way better than most flat panels, with a 2.1 channel 50W setup and Dolby Atmos support. You won't need a soundbar for casual viewing. Gaming is solid too, with 120Hz, VRR, ALLM, and HDMI 2.1 across all four ports. The picture quality score looks mediocre on paper, but that's the OLED tax, it's being compared against ultra-bright LCDs. In a dark room, those perfect blacks from the XR Contrast Booster 15 will embarrass any LED TV. The display score is middle of the pack, which is fair for a 65-inch panel in a world of 75 and 100-inch monsters.

The LG OLED evo C5 is the natural rival here. It's brighter and has better gaming chops, but Sony's processing and audio are superior. The Samsung QN990F is a different beast entirely, an 8K monster that costs way more and is overkill for most people. The TCL QM8K and Hisense U8 are the value plays, they get brighter and cost less, but they can't touch the Sony's black levels or motion handling. If you want the best movie experience in a dark room, the Sony wins. If you want a bright living room TV for sports and daytime viewing, go TCL or Hisense.

At $1,698 USD, this is a solid deal for a 65-inch Sony OLED with a mount and cleaner thrown in. But the CAD price of $4,336 is a different story, that's a much tougher sell. If you're in the US, this is a good buy. If you're in Canada, you might want to wait for a sale or look at the LG C5 instead.

This is a bundle, not just a TV. You're getting Sony's 65-inch Bravia 8 OLED, a basic fixed wall mount, and a screen cleaning kit. The TV itself is a stunner for movie nights, with that pure black OLED contrast and Sony's excellent processing. But the bundle is a bit of a mixed bag. The mount is fine, the cleaner is fine, but the real story here is the panel. It's a gorgeous display that's held back by a few odd scoring quirks in our database, mostly because it's being compared against some very bright QLED and Mini-LED sets.

If you're putting this in a bright living room with lots of windows, skip it. The OLED panel will look dim compared to a Mini-LED. Go grab a TCL QM8K or Hisense U8 instead. Also, if you need a tilting or full-motion mount, this bundle's fixed mount is useless to you, just buy the TV alone and get the mount you actually need.

This is a great TV wrapped in a slightly gimmicky bundle. The Sony Bravia 8 OLED is a fantastic panel for movie lovers and console gamers, with audio that actually surprised us. The mount and cleaner are fine, but they're not the reason to buy this. If the price is right in your region, pull the trigger. You won't regret the picture.
