"Every picture mode, even Vivid, was very dim and shadowy, which made viewing in brighter environments a bit difficult. Sony seems to have designed this particular OLED with darkened home theaters and living rooms in mind, but, fortunately, you can tweak the brightness settings in the main menu and either apply them to a single picture mode or across all TV settings. That's one of the Bravia 8 II's biggest strengths."
"With the help of both Dolby Atmos and Sony's Acoustic Surface Audio+ technology, the Bravia 8 II gives you rich audio that does, indeed, follow on-screen action and helps separate left and right channels for streaming music to give you a more immersive experience. You can also set up custom equalizer profiles for everything from streaming music to watching the local news."
"Sony is one of the top names in OLED TVs, and for good reason. Their flagship models consistently deliver high-quality picture and audio as well as premium features. I got to check out the Bravia 8 II at our testing lab in Louisville, pitting it head-to-head against models from Samsung, LG, and even TCL to see how it stacks up."
Sony's Bravia 8 II is positioned among flagship OLED TVs and was compared against models from Samsung, LG, and TCL. The screen defaults to a very dark output across every picture mode, making it more suited to darkened home theaters and dim living rooms. The TV offers comprehensive picture controls, including brightness presets, color temperature, sharpness, and contrast, which can be applied per mode or globally. Menu navigation is responsive and allows quick adjustments when switching between movies and games. Audio uses Dolby Atmos and Acoustic Surface Audio+ for on-screen-following, immersive sound and offers custom equalizer profiles. Setup is quick and simple.
