Lmao it was a tough journey over here too 😂 so it’s easier and they recommend doing it with *3 people* , but basically you do this: Just lift the TV and push the leg down with your free arm on each side with 2 people while lifting it. If that’s too difficult, turn the TV on one side and then just pull them out with the TV standing sideways. I was able to do the last way by myself. You basically just pull them out kinda hard lol Here’s an illustration of the process from the manual: m.imgur.com/U5j5DZ6
P.s. Sony’s TV are made from recycled plastic. I got the X90J late last year and it’s amazing. You’re going to love that TV (unless you have an Xbox Series X or PS5) then you’ll want the X90J for 4K 120 fps games.
I just bought one today.. And bump into your review.. I'm glad your review is positive since i didn't watch any review before buying it.. Just checking for the spec.. Now I'm excited to received my tv by tomorrow..
@RodrickViews Hello, at Sony Bravia KD-50X81J, when recording with a timer, recording with EPG, the TV open by itself when the recording starts. I know there is a setting for this, but I can't find it in Settings. If I set a timer for recording at 03.00 in the morning, when the recording starts, then the TV open with picture and sound. Please if you can help. Thank you in advance !
Triluminos pro color is Sony’s version of QLED. Fun fact Sony invented QLED technology and licensed it to Samsung that’s why they can’t say QLED because Samsung is still licensing the “QLED” name and Sony wants that Samsung money. Also the TV wall mount attaches to metals inside the TV. So don’t worry about it ever falling lol.
I don’t have satellite TV anymore, but streaming SD and HD content looks good. Black levels aren’t good though, especially with max brightness. I.E. Dolby Vision.
@@RodrickViews will the black levels matter that much, like for regular tv viewing and watching movies on Netflix, Amazon prime, Disney + hotstar. Also movies download offline with Ac3 audio fromat. Will it be that drastic or manageable. Because can’t be affording x85j or x90j 65inch too costly?
Not for gaming. It only has 60hz refresh rate. It is a budget or entry level model for sony look for a higher price for gaming. But all I can say this is the best buy for me for watching only movies not for gaming. Sony is durable 100% than other tvs out there. I love sony.
The interface was probably just loading.. I got a sony bravia from last year and interface looks crisp. Also 2021 build quality is worse than last year's..
Deciding between the75 inch x80j for $940 or the 75 inch x950h for $2168? I wanted for my living room which is bright room. We just wanted for movies and sports and regular TV.
Compré el Sony x85j de 55 pulgadas. En el menú de Google TV no aparece la fila "Continuar viendo" y en la parte de "gestionar servicios" estan Disney plus, amazon, y demás, pero no sale Netflix, con lo cual en las recomendaciones de series y películas solo me recomienda las de Amazon y Disney, pero ninguna de Netflix. Qué puede ser? Alguna idea de cómo solucionarlo? Ya he hecho reset a fábrica a través del menú y he probado entrar con diferentes cuentas de usuario y nada, todo igual. Tengo un chromecast con Google tv y ahí sí que va perfecto. Gracias por la ayuda!
Yes, I am enjoying it! The only thing I noticed is the blacks aren't OLED deep when content is displayed, but then again, it's not an OLED. The GoogleTV interface and apps are smooth and content looks nice and clear.
@@RodrickViews Just wondering how do you like your Sony? Any problem so far? Purchasing a new tv this week. Looking for 75 inch. For a dark theatre room, with Yamaha/Klipsch Dolby Atmos. Thanks for your time. Cheers 🍻 EH!👽🇨🇦👍
I had this tv Sony Bravia x80j, after 15 días I returned, initially bought it for the leaving room, Standard tv shows, Apps, Games & movies, and it doesn’t perform well in any of this criteria’s. Main problem Judder motion sucks big time, Dark colors you will lose completely all details in picture quality. Over price tv, BTW I had 65” at 950$ tax included.
This year i bought the 950h and it fell to the ground screen flat! 🤣 I remove everything of the tv and while i was reading the manual how to put the legs together. The tv fell to the ground. I have a video of it. I don't know if i should uploaded it 🤣🤣
@@RodrickViews a month after that a fire had happened on the top floor of my unit. Everything i had there was Lost. A month after the fire the management and the county let us walk in there and grabbed anything that we thought it was still good. THE FIRST THING I GRABBED WAS THE TV AND IT STILL WORKS 🤣🤣 SO DOES MY SOUNDBAR. THAT TV IS UNBREAKABLE A TRUE SURVIVAL
Lmk if you figure out how to remove the legs bc I can’t and we need to mount it lmao

That’s not a basic tv you can get TVs for under 400.00 dollars and I’m sure you paid close to a grand.
Lmao I bought this TV two weeks ago and had the same problem! 🤦🏽♀️😂😂
@@cyyoung6351 I bought this exact same TV and paid $599. 🤗
@@cyyoung6351 these are going for $599.00 on Amazon right now
I just got mine 6 hours ago...and I love it. I put it in place of my Samsung 65 inch entry level qled. Now I finally have a good 75 inch sony TV.
Thank you so much!!! We just bought one, and my friend wants it set up before Sunday in time for the Superbowl! Guess who has to set it up? Me!
Question, I dont know much about TVs but I was just wondering, is 4k Dolby Vision HDR tv some kind of a 3d tv?????
Loved your review. I am tv shopping and have decided on this tv. Thanks for the review!
Got delivery of my Sony KD-65X85J 65 Inch 4K LED Smart TV today loving it. But struggling to put the table stand on it. Any information on this pls.
P.s. Sony’s TV are made from recycled plastic. I got the X90J late last year and it’s amazing. You’re going to love that TV (unless you have an Xbox Series X or PS5) then you’ll want the X90J for 4K 120 fps games.
So the ps5 won’t be good for this tv ?
@@killakicks it won’t play games at 120 FPS. If you want that I would get the X90J it has two HDMI 2.1 120Hz ports.
@@killakicks you can also check X85J. It's a bit cheaper than X90J and also have two HDMI 2.1 ports.
I just bought one today.. And bump into your review.. I'm glad your review is positive since i didn't watch any review before buying it.. Just checking for the spec.. Now I'm excited to received my tv by tomorrow..
How was your tv just curious ???
Same here, I just bought it today and didn't watch any review before. Totally caught up by marketing sales.
I need to go for the sony 4k tv 50 inch myself looks beautiful
How mach?
How is the hdr and Dolby vision on the Sony x80j? I want to buy this tv but I would like to know how good the hdr and Dolby vision are.
Bro you're literally standing next to the screen, watch it from far 🤣

Can you please tell me when you push the settings button does it show the sound profiles :music, standard, cinema ?
If you have purchased movies through Google TV will you be able to watch these on the TV?
Yes
Does it support the 120hz at 4k. I'm looking specifically for my PS 5.
Just 60Hz.
Btw this is not a basic tv, it’s a Sony with Dolby, Google and Excellent color.
Exactly
It's their entry level model, and the build quality speaks to that.
@@derekwebster8442 Well I purchased 65” x90j not impressed returning it for 75” x85j on sale for 1299.00 definitely worth the price.
@@derekwebster8442 The build quality is fine.
Dude, who watches tv like that? You're just literally licking the screen. C'on. 😂
Lol 😂
It's a bit blurry from 10 centimetres away
anyone know why the app images are so bad, is this normal?
Yeah, still to this day the images aren’t as sharp as they should be. From a normal distance they look fine though.
@@RodrickViews thanks for the reply, would you still recommend this TV overall?

How does it look when watching sd and hd satellite channels?
I don’t have satellite TV anymore, but streaming SD and HD content looks good. Black levels aren’t good though, especially with max brightness. I.E. Dolby Vision.

How experience watch the tv in dark room it's has deep black contrast?
The black levels aren’t good especially with max brightness and Dolby Vision 😞
Is this good for gaming for Xbox One X and watching movies
Not for gaming. It only has 60hz refresh rate. It is a budget or entry level model for sony look for a higher price for gaming. But all I can say this is the best buy for me for watching only movies not for gaming. Sony is durable 100% than other tvs out there. I love sony.
Hi. What is the difference between Sony A80J and A84J models?
The interface was probably just loading.. I got a sony bravia from last year and interface looks crisp. Also 2021 build quality is worse than last year's..
Why it's slow respon while we used external hardisk
Just wanted to ask what is good refresh rate for 4k tvs? Is 50Hz too low?
In the U.S. it should be 60hz minimum. 50hz should be fine for Europe. 120hz would be great, but 50/60hz is _good enough_ for most people.
Thanks for the info. I had two options to go for 50 or 120...seems better to go for 120.
120

How hard is it to remove the leg stands from this tv??
Easy with 3 people. A little less easy by yourself. If you’re not sure how to do it, check the pinned comment for instructions.
Do you recommend this or oled version
Definitely OLED.
@@RodrickViews i nees to buy the led or tv oled
But the oled its more 2000 expensive is it really worth it

Any new tv Wouk impress you.
So you would recommend this Sony TV
Yes, I am enjoying it! The only thing I noticed is the blacks aren't OLED deep when content is displayed, but then again, it's not an OLED. The GoogleTV interface and apps are smooth and content looks nice and clear.
you do not know if it is with hdmi 2.1 and 120 hz?
HDMI 2.0b. 60Hz.
Does this TV have 5GHz wifi support?
Yes it does!
do you need a sound bar?
No, it sounds alright as far as TVs go, but I’d recommend it.
Great review great video now I know what TV to get
Loved your expressions super review keep making more 😀
Thanks for an honest human review Rodrick. I think I'll try out the Amazon Prime Free Trial as a thank you.
You are just thinking old school like a tv is supposed to be heavy, they are streamlined and use a lighter material.
How do u connect it to alexa
May i know what is the screen size of your x80j?
55 inches

You forgot to remove : plastic from screen
7:45-8:29 was hilarious
Not recommended if u use this tv to watch movies from external hardisk. Because this tv very slow respon.. Better TCL TV.
