@@ZenithClarityI guess they changed. I got a $2k Sony Bravia tv back in like 2008 and im still using it. Just started having problems this month. It turns on and turns off and then again turns on and then it runs normal
Very well organized and informative. As someone who doesn’t buy a new TV very often I find myself overwhelmed by the cryptic model numbering systems used by different manufacturers. This video helped me to understand the various Sony models lines and make a decision about which one was right for me.
Best guide on youtube about all these new models, amazing work mate, thanks! I was planning on the X85L but seeing the step up in features and tech on the X90L convinced me to safe up a bit more cash and go for that one.
@@smarthomesounds Only issue I just found out they skipped 75" model for the x90L which is what I was aiming for, the 85" is that more expensive that the jump to the mini led 75" higher end model is too close so again... gotta work harder and longer for that one lol...
I'm waiting to see if the Sony A95L wins the shootout before I make a decision. I have the A90J which I am totally content with so if the A95L doesn't win its no big deal.
I love Sony so much 😍in fact it is my favourite electronics company… i remember back in the day when flat LCD TVs were invented my grandparents used to have the newest Sony Bravia. I loved that TV so much and many years later they gave it to me so i could play my ps3 on it… i still own it and after all these years it still works just fine
Really helpful. Took me a lot in reading on Sony website to figure a few things out. This video summarises everything really well. Wish I had come across this before spending all that time reading.
For anyone wondering what the song is: Shifting Out by Gregory David. The full track is awesome. Smart Home seem to have good taste in music. Thanks for the video.
I am torn between a80l and x90l in 55”, plan to change my 49” samsung ks7500 in my bed room which can be bright due to south facing windows, but not directly facing the tv, what do you suggest? I’m afraid a80l will be too dim, while side by side in store i like a80l, no x95l in 55” and a95l is not avail here
6:26 I enabled Enhanced signal mode on my X75WL and plugged my PS5 into HDMI 3, which is the eARC port but why is it still on HDMI 2.0? My PS5 on 4K HDR is saying the colour range is YUV422 due to HDMI 2.0 transfer speed limitations
My Bravia 65” freezes at least once a week requiring you to unplug it to reset it. They downloaded a patch to fix and it helped but still happens. Also, you will drop the remote control often. It’s so thin that you can only get your finger tips on it.
Thank you! Hands down the most helpful video on choosing a Sony TV. I learned more in the first 5 minutes of this video than in all my other research and video viewing combined. So incredibly helpful; THANK YOU!!
I would love to see a video on home cinema speaker setup value/mid/premium recommendations for the flagship TVs of the year, ie. LG G3 & Sony A95L. Especially given both of these act as a centre channel in the right set ups. Personally I’m considering the G3 and interested in value/mid recommendations for a setup that works well with this TV, taking advantage of using the TV as a centre channel.
Thanks for the info on SONY TVs , as it happens , I have just started looking into another SONY . You gave a good presentation ,with the info I actually needed .
Which one is better: KD-50X75WL or KD-50X89J ? Regarding where it sits in the range: Please help me understand why the KD-50X75WL is newer/more expensive than the older/cheaper KD-50X89J when it seems like the opposite should be true, i.e. you'd expect the range to go upwards from the 70's to the 80's.. not the other way around. I'm so confused about the range numbers.
Hi I want to buy the Sony Bravia XR as I have a Sony PS5. Thanks in advance but I have 3 questions before I buy… Question 1) I only have space for only a 50” or a 55" so which one is better out of the 2? Question 2) I heard that OLED was the best so if the Sony Bravia XR is made for the PS5 then why is the Bravia XR only LED and not OLED or doesn’t it matter? Question 3) I use a Digital Audio Optical TOSLINK cable from the TV or Mac and plug it into my amp for 7.1 sound. Does the Sony Bravia XR 50” and 55” have a output socket for a Digital Audio Optical TOSLINK Cable? This one is a make or break for me if it hasn’t got one then I won’t buy it.
Hi, Is it possible to sideload APKs on the Sony X90L 85 inch since it is running Google TV and it has an android OS behind it? Or Sony can add something to block APK?
Awesome information. I’m sure this would help many people like me who’s been looking for the details and differences between these models! Great job and very thankful! 🙏
How can you say A95L is the best panel of the bunch when it suffers from serious burn-in problems like most other OLED panels as shown by RTINGS endurance testing? VA panels are still the only long term choice for a gamer, sports enthusiast, and creative power user where the screen deals with a lot of static images.
Bro, this was an awesome video. I'm no dummy when it comes to tv's, but I still feel I learned a bit from this video, especially about the different models. Good job! 😮🎉
Thanks for providing some transparency on that subject. I really like the picture of my 6 Year Old Sony LED TV and am looking for a new TV. Only thing holding me back from going Sony again is that I have such a buggy experience. The software on my Sony TV is amazingly bad, truly and utterly fascinatingly bad. I wonder if they have gotten better in the meantime.
I have an important question. I twice ordered XR55x90k, the product of 2022, cause it was cheaper. Both have squeaking/whistling noise when turning the brightness up. Is this normal? Its a bit disturbing, so i consider to buy a KD-modell.
Hello. Is there a reason why to have 4 hdmi 2.1?? Do we actually need more than 2 hmdi 2.1 outputs? Im looking for new tv and looking at the a95l 77 inch
Oh my!! A science degree required what are they thinking with all These names 😮 I have a tv on watch on a site but now need to go and decipher exactly what it is..thanks for clearing this up very helpful 👍
Very well done, thx! I could use a bit of help: My next TV will go into a medium-small room, usually dark; I will be 6-8 ft from the screen. I'd like a 55" unit. I usually view movies (streaming), some news, some sports, misc. Aside from price, which Sony would best fit this scenario? Thx!!
I only missed the refresh rates im looking for a good 55 inch whas watching for a a95k where some sayd it whas 120 hrz and some sayd 100 hrz now did i notice the a80l whas in the same price range only oled and not mini led im still tinking wich one to pick im changing from a old lg full hd tv soo its a massive upgrade 😂 but got a ps5 and the net game interface from the L series is a consider or see what the a95L will cost

I am in dillema between Sony x75wl and Hisense e7kq. Which one is better?
Disappointed that we can only get the 65" X93L and not the X95L (which only comes in 85" in the US)
X93L almost identical to X95k from last year.

For tv with stands like the A80L can you do the raised position on the narrow position or only on the wide position? Anyone tried? Thanks
The x85L is not in market now does x82l similar or what is the difference
Is the A90j still worth it or should I await a newer model?
I have a 65 inch sony A8H. The picture is still fantastic. Is the A80L or even the A80K worth the upgrade for me?
For me a80L looks more stunning and realism. I own sony a80j and a80k looks same in picture quality

Would you say the 50 inch sony bravia 75L is better than the same price 600 pound samsung tv? The sound on samsung is awful.
hi。。 i just want to ask is that X85L is very good enough for ps5 gaming?
what does KD in KD50X75L mean?
The x80L is only available in a living room size? A local store has a 43” x80L are they mixing it up with the x80K to sell it for a higher price?
I think they've made a mistake as sony's own website says the x80l has 6 sizes available 43" upwards.
Best info on Sony TVs I've seen! Thank you! Sadly the X95L in 75 inch does not appear to be available in the USA.
