Great video I have a LG C2 and I just got the A95L 65in and I love it
Happy New Year
Happy New Year KG😊
Happy new year!
Sony TVs have always been expensive, but Sony considers itself flagship compared to other brands. If a consumer has the disposable income then enjoy the best
Expensive and worth it only idiots moan about Sony Bravia TVs and it's prices if want cheap shit buy LG IPS/LCD or OLED TVs or Samsung budget LCD TVs.
@@RobertK1993exactly
Hey KG ! I got a Big Question from Germany :) how many Nits do you set up in the Xbox Calibration Menu ? 1000 , 1200 or 1600 ?
Happy new year KG! Nice video. May seem like an odd question KG but im tempted to just pull the trigger on this tv...but brightness in sdr which I watch mostly is a factor.
...Would this tv be as bright in sdr as my 10 year old edge lit led? Ps I have an ambient front room.
Yeah it’ll definitely be brighter than any edge lit in SDR the SDR brightness is really great I was just saying in game mode SDR isn’t as bright as outside of game mode.
@@TechWithKG Oh thats good news thanks bud
I have a fairly dark, easy to control light home theater room. Would this look best in my type of room or maybe the song X95L Mini-LED (?), which many say is brighter, tho I’m concerned about the PQ, in that is the Mini-LED As Good as an OLED, or close to it visually? Ty
Thanks for all your content, KG. I have the 55" A95L. I have noticed that streaming Dolby Vision from Netflix and Apple TV (for both, I'm using the built-in apps) does NOT trigger the words "Dolby Vision" to appear at the top of the screen. But the 3 Dolby picture modes DO appear as my picture options. Weird. When streaming from the Movies Anywhere app, the "Dolby Vision" words DO appear at the top of the screen. Also, the built-in Apple TV+ app has quite a dark picture, to the point where I have to choose the Dolby Vision Vivid picture mode. Although I do know that people are reporting Dolby Vision issues, I have not seen anyone mention the specific 2 issues I mentioned here (no "Dolby Vision" indicator triggered, and very dark Apple TV). The other issue is that audio/video are out of sync when watching my Blu Ray player (for Blu Rays, DVDs, and 4K discs). I have a new Sony receiver. Adjusting the audio delay on the receiver fixes the problem, but still,. a weird problem to have when I'm using a brand new Sony TV and brand new Sony receiver and brand new Sony Blue ray player.
Thank you for bringing this up! I bought the same tv and have been googling if anyone else sees this as an issue or it’s just me and I don’t see anything. I thought I was going crazy.
For such an expensive tv, you wouldn’t think it would have these many bugs out the gate, especially something as important as Dolby Vision.
Dude, I just got this TV yesterday and oh my God it’s beautiful and this is someone who already has the LG G3.Also side note the one knock I will give it is that the Tv system is a little bit clunky and this is after running the update on the TV
Is it worth upgrading from the C9 to A95L?
@@othman0077 that would be a massive upgrade.
Edit: maybe not "massive", but it would be substantial nonetheless.
@@othman0077 Yes,Yes and Yes. I watching blue eye samurai on Netflix on this Tv and the colors just look amazing and I already thought it look good on my G3 but this Tv takes it to another level.
@steadychaosproductions3376 wow, that's promising
what really is holding me is that 2 only HDMI2.1
but I can secrify just for the sake of the best picture quality in movies and game mode
@@othman0077definitely would be a noticeable change
Im building a home theater and I'd love to have this TV as the centerpiece, but 77" inches is the only limiting factor for me...its just too small.
@@TheAntifluencer Agreed, Sony charges an arm and a leg for their TVs...tho I feel like their pricing has gotten a bit better in 2023. One can get an 85" X90L for 2K, thats not bad.
For now, I'll prb buy an open box 83" A80L for around 3500. That'll have to do for now.
S95c + 990b soundbar = cinematic q symphony. No need a95l. I am so happy 😊 with my set up
Sony is over priced my S95C looks better in every way!
@@James__Smith Definitely looks better in my opinion. The A95L can’t do what I want it to so that’s why I consider it as looking better!
S95c colors are very strong and over saturated
@@XxPeruvianGamersxX No! It’s called quantum dot color
You are in delulu state
Have the 65 A95L. Love it. My only issues recently Dolby Vision not working on Paramount Plus or Max. Which is odd. Works great on Disney Plus and Netflix. I stream internally. Makes me think it’s not the TV. If the other 2 apps work.
A possible solution to your HDR not being on your Max. I have the $15.99 add free plan which used to come with 4K and Dolby vision and I got an email that they were removing Dolby vision from my current Max plan and I have to upgrade to the most expensive $19.99 tier plan to have access to Dolby vision and 4K. Not sure what plan you have but that might be why. If you do have the most expensive tier then yeah could be something wrong work the app itself.
@@fw3689 yeah I think that is the case with Max. But Paramount Plus I’ve found out the 95L has an issue with.
have you tried a 4k disc with Dolby vision
Check your subscription to those apps. Thought I was having issues with the tv, but found out it was the type of subscription I had to some apps. Once I upgraded my subscriptions everything worked.
This tv really is great. Sony always delivers. One key aspect to know is there is some dimming that occurs with ABL in gaming. Other tv brands give you the option to disable logo dimming which impacts gaming. Sony still has not added this feature. There are several videos online detailing this. Overall tho picture processing is top of the line. Fantastic.
Yea this is a problem
Hey KG. So I finally pulled the plug and claimed bankruptcy. Only after purchasing the 65” 😂
Question/concern. So to me, I feel like the standard mode is way too dim. Especially switching back and forth from Vivid. Professional mode is even dimmer. I feel like i have to watch my content constantly in vivid mode because I’m not feeling happy with standard mode. Is this normal? Have you changed a few settings that can improve the standard mode?
The most important inTV is the picture quality .... the first channel to say that, congratulations, and thank for this information...
I had the A95K for a few weeks and changed it for the A95L.
In my opinion there is a noticeable difference in picture quality.
Build quality is superior and the stand on a95l feels more stable with much less wobble ,
Better sound quality, thinner chassis and lighter. I think the second generation QD panel is designed to have more longevity and should do better against burn in.
It’s definitely a lot brighter and has a greater depth image and sharpness due to the XR clear processor. So if your in the market for a new tv I wouldn’t always advise to spend extra to get this newer set over the A95K.
I have returned my A95k faulty and there swapping me for A95L the sound wasn’t good on the A95k compared to my old Sony A1 so is the sound better than A95k
@@deanbbnsida223A95K and A95L have better picture and sound then all other Sony Bravia OLED TVs from 2017-2021 especially A1E.
If you are an enthusiast and want the best, the Sony A95L should be your choice. I'm personally waiting on the price to come down on the A95L. Otherwise, the LG G3 would make most people happy.
I really want this TV bro. I want to upgrade from my LGC1 55” to the A95L 65” but it is just too ridiculously expensive. The 65” G3 is a $1000 cheaper. Is the 65” Sony a thousand dollars better than the G3????????
I would consider one of the Samsung oleds, you get the qd oled tech with none of the Sony tax.
I have a 65” S95B. I typically watch RUclipsTV, all streaming platforms, 4k UHDs and some gaming. Will the 65” A95L be a noticeable upgrade from the S95B?
Honestly not a huge one, going from a 65 inch QD OLED to a 65 inch QD OLED yes you will see better picture quality due to processing but it won't feel like the biggest upgrade.
@@TechWithKG my biggest motivator was for lower bit rate content. Number one use in my house is RUclipsTV and sports. While I wouldn’t say the S95B is bad, I definitely see artifacting, judder and sometimes banding.
Well then yes A95L is definitely an improvement there
This is true, my c1 looks blurrier compared to my new A80L, and it applies to movies and games too
@@westibbs I have tried that before and it didn’t work. Sony’s processing is a lot better.
@@westibbs I respect your opinion😊
LG C3 lost to A80L and A80L came close G3 in brightness
@@westibbsTurning up sharpness on LG will make the picture more artificial 😂
@@BakerwarLG and Samsung fanboys lie they are jealous of Sony Bravia
This is so incredibly frustrating that seeing all the great things about this tv made me pull the trigger and return the x93L I had for this…and the menu is laggy and slow. More than the Dolby vision issues, this bother me the most. I have the most up to date software. I think it’s fine in normal viewing but streaming movies makes it laggy. Does anyone else notice this? Also, settings wise I turn off the led indicator but the tv for some reason will always turn it back on after I had turned it on and off with the power button…anyone else experiencing these issues? Everyone seems to only say great things about it but I’m not so sure anymore
Is this tv the A95L good for SDR gaming is it bright ore is the A95K betther in SDR gaming??
This is brighter for SDR and it is noticeable but not a huge amount
Very nice review. I want to buy Sony A95L this year, because I'm disappointed with my LG C2. I'm also thinking of buying LG G4 instead of A95L.
Thanks! Can’t really go wrong with either, I love both TVs G4 is very comparable to A95L splitting hairs with differences so pick which user experience is best for you.
@@TechWithKG But the colors are better with Sony right?
Definitely depends what you like and what mode you watch in. G4 seems to be more saturated than A95L for a richer look with colors. Color brightness on vibrant colors is better on A95L.
Currently in my neck of the woods the 55 inch A95L is the same price as the 77inch LG C3. What to do? Chat help me out
77 S89C or S90C if you need that 77 inch size
when is the best time of the year to buy this tv ?
Likely around Late Summer 2024
What about burn issue for Oled tv’s specially with expensive Tv brand like Sony ?
All Oled Tv companies facing same problem.. Sony is working on latest 4000 nits OLED Displays by itself and No burn in problems at all Sony will put all tvs behind the shadows..
Sony is expensive but Sony is Master of all TVs Lg is also good option in low price.. Sony colours are super brilliant Eye soothing immersive.. Lg black levels are nice for great clarity with deep dark colours but picture is Edgy feels like Monitor.
Samsung Tv has whitish foggy type screen spiky pixels harsh view after long watch..
@@ladladeep for sure , Sony is Master of all Tv brands with my personal experience, I was asking about any new created technology to kick out all Oled burn issues for all brands I didn’t specify Sony .
Check Ces2024 Sony has already announced 4000 nits Oled made by Sony without burn in issues
Samsung q800c 8k review
I’m watching this video, KG is selling the 95L, thinking about returning my G3 to make it work, THEN as I’m watching a get a notification from Vincent that Sony is possibly abandoning OLED as their Flagship in 2024 🤦🏾♂️. lol
All in all it just means they likely won’t have a successor to the A95L QD OLED in 2024 and the A95L will likely just carry over, mini LED improvements sound promising but it’s going to be hard to match the contrast of QD OLED.
my LG lost 10months, then they have to change whole panel for new one, and after that, new panel never upscaling again, I return again and LG said: we dont see any issues or trubles sorry! So for me LG dosnt exist anymore 😅 Then I haved Sony UHD LCD and works great with any problems for 5years, Now looking for 77'" And Sony have great picture, if you live day by day with Sony, you probably dont want to change for other brand,but for size 77" a95l is overpriced, So I will go with Samsung s90s, to me its much beter value buy..btw great review 👍
Best tv ever
I luv Sony !!!
A ridiculous price in the UK ..
Not interested
C3 is overpriced compared to S90c.Lg pricing policy is just so very anti-consumer.
Samsung is closest to Sony out the top 3 but they lack Dolby Vision huge weaknesses and XR Processor isn't matched by Samsung Quantum Processor
98' or above only !!
But Quantum says that C1 is better than A95L😮
lol for real. Quantum does have some good content but his take on Sony seems way off. I mean he claims EVERY single other tech reviewer is lying to all of their loyal followers about the Sony A95L being good. When you have to make the case that you aren’t the one who is wrong, it’s EVERYONE else who is wrong. You’re probably the one who is wrong. Do I believe IGN, Digitaltrends, Tech with KG, CNET, on and on and on… or one man claiming they are all liars.
people still watch him? Thought he got arrested
I mean I got a c1, I'd trade it for an a95L without a second thought, love my c1 though.
@@TheAntifluencer he doesnt know what he is talking about. S95B is just more oversaturated out of the box. Has nothign to do with higher color volume. Quantum isnt even using HDR so colorvolume isnt applicable in the first place to SDR
Certainly not worth the price premium considering Sony will have a new picture processor system for next year. This tv is sitll using the same one from 2021. The Dolby vision issues are real as well for bot the A95L and the X95L. Even if you have too much money to know what to do with, I think this tv is a dumb buy for the price
There is no such thing as “not worth the price”. A commodity is worth as much as consumers / customers are willing to pay for it
@@gbej1 What? Lmao because consumers/customers pay for it it’s worth the price! That’s not true at all consumers and customers are lied to constantly and they make uneducated decisions every day. That doesn’t mean it’s worth the price they ask! Period.
@@NexGenTek You clearly do not understand the term “worth” in business and have no idea how buying and selling actually works.
@@gbej1 So you just replied just to reply! Thanks for proving nothing!
The G3 looks black and white in comparison. The Samsung was no difference
$3.3K yeah right, no thanks!
It’s only low bit content! There is literally nothing else that looks better to me! With my S95C hitting 2000 nits even in Filmmaker I wouldn’t switch it for a free A95L
Sony is delusional for charging such expensive
Sony should be the best for gaming since they make the PlayStation 5… but Sony TVs suck for gaming, they have the highest input lag of them all and not as bright as the rest… so for gaming Sony TVs are a no no
Buy a LG G3 or Samsung S90C instead of this TV. Sony is too proud of their TV's. ONLY 2 HDMI 2.1 ports? Come on Sony. The S90C is the best value out their. Gaming is better than on the S90C than the A95L and after a few very minor adjustments to pic settings you'll be happy you saved $3,000 over the A95L....
HDR is massively better than the A95k.
1. Sony A95K has a better Rec.2020 color gamut coverage than A95L. 2. A95K has a better PQ-EOTF than A95L. 3. A95K has a better panel uniformity and homogenity than A95L. Except the brigtness increase for A95L and the fact that A95L lost 3.6 Kg of weight on TV only - without stand, where is better HDR?
Classy said that there is a Clear Image Processing Concern. "Dolby vision and Hdr"
Sometimes a green or purple tint shift, especially streamed content in RGB and sometimes posterization where nits kick in. Yeah there are flaws but seldom.
A95L might be overpriced, but A80L is much more overpriced with 600 Nits peak brightness.
Sony Oled at midrange is not good enough
It’s not significant upgrade over s95c or g3 given the price difference. Sony is definitely not the smart choice. Fractional improvement in performance for double the cost doesn’t sound smart at all. What’s even more shady is how x90L with almost Stone Age level dimming zones is claimed to compete with Qn90b or C with significantly better contrast on Samsung. Sony is very anti consumer and will lose ground sooner or later in terms of sales . Nobody stays loyal to certain brand no matter how die hard fan they are .
Nope
It’s got way too many bugs for the price.
Sony tvs are too expensive
sony is king of overpriced tv, not worth it
Sony's msrp is way overpriced compared to Samsung and LG.
