Sony Bravia 8 K65XR80M2 65"

The Sony Bravia 8 is a 65-inch QD-OLED with top-tier display and connectivity scores. It's a great all-rounder for movies, sports, and gaming, especially with the included wall mount. If you want a premium OLED and a clean setup, this is a solid buy.

The display and connectivity are where this thing shines. Our database puts it in the 94th percentile for display and 95th for connectivity, which means you're getting a top-tier panel and all the ports you'd realistically need. Four HDMI inputs, Wi-Fi 6E, and eARC cover everything from a PS5 to a soundbar. HDR support is solid too, with HDR10 and Dolby Vision on board. Gaming sits at the 70th percentile, so it's good but not class-leading. The 120Hz panel and Game Mode keep things smooth, but hardcore competitive players might want something with a bit more gaming-specific punch. Audio is a 75th percentile situation, which is fine for built-in TV speakers, but you'll still want a soundbar for anything cinematic.

Stacked against the LG OLED evo C5, the Sony holds its own on processing and motion handling, though LG's OLED panels often edge out Sony on pure gaming features. The Samsung Neo QLED QN75QN990FFXZA is a different beast entirely, bigger and brighter, but you lose that perfect OLED black. The TCL QM8K and Hisense U8 are the value plays, offering a lot of screen for less money, but they can't match the Sony's out-of-the-box color accuracy and motion processing. The Roku Pro Series is the budget-friendly smart TV option, but it's not in the same league for picture quality.

Pricing sits around $2,965 to $3,065 USD depending on the listing. For a 65-inch QD-OLED with this level of connectivity and a quality wall mount included, that's a fair deal. You're not getting ripped off, but you're also not stealing it. The value proposition gets better if you specifically want that recessed mount and a clean wall setup. If you don't care about the mount, you might find similar picture quality for a bit less elsewhere.

The Sony Bravia 8 is a 65-inch QD-OLED that nails the basics and then some. You get that pure black, pixel-level contrast OLED is famous for, plus quantum dot color that pops without looking like a cartoon. The XR Processor does a lot of heavy lifting here, especially for motion and upscaling. It's not the cheapest panel in the room, but it's one of the most polished.

This particular bundle also throws in a Kanto R500 recessed wall mount. That's a nice touch if you want that ultra-low-profile, floating-on-the-wall look. The TV itself is a strong all-rounder, with gaming and sports scores that put it ahead of most of the pack.

Skip this if you're on a tight budget or don't care about the wall mount. The TCL QM8K or Hisense U8 will get you a big, bright screen for less cash. Also, if you're a competitive gamer who needs the absolute lowest input lag and best gaming features, LG's OLED evo C5 is a stronger pick.

This is a TV for someone who wants a premium OLED experience without obsessing over spec sheets. It's great for movies, sports, and gaming, and the included wall mount makes it a strong choice for a clean living room setup. If you're a hardcore gamer chasing every last millisecond of input lag, you might look at LG's gaming-focused OLEDs. But for most people, the Bravia 8 is a gorgeous, reliable panel that just works.
