The new "Bravia 8 II" televisions from Sony rely on the combination of QD OLED technology, Google TV and the integrated "Acoustic Surface Audio+" system. There is a choice of two sizes - both with identical inner workings.
If you are looking for a new TV, you might be interested in one of the «Bravia 8 II» models from Sony. The 55-inch (K-55XR8M2) and 65-inch (K-65XR8M2) models only differ in size. The technical platform is identical. Both models use QD OLED technology.
A cashback campaign is currently running when you buy one of the TVs. You can find more information here:
Picture quality and processor
Both «Bravia 8 II» models use an OLED panel with a 4K resolution of 3840 × 2160 pixels. The self-illuminating pixels are designed to enable precise contrasts and deep blacks without loss of light. The «Cognitive Processor XR» analyses content in real time. According to the manufacturer, it automatically adjusts contrast, colour and movement.
The «XR Contrast Booster 25» function increases the peak brightness. The colour space is to be expanded by the «XR Triluminos Max» technology. This uses a wide colour palette to make shades and details more visible. Both devices support HDR10, HLG and Dolby Vision. The native refresh rate is 120 hertz.
The sound system and connection options
Sony has integrated its «Acoustic Surface Audio+» system into both models. This means that the sound comes directly from the screen via two actuators, supported by two subwoofers. The total output is 50 watts (2 × 15 watts for actuators, 2 × 10 watts for subwoofers). The TV supports Dolby Atmos, DTS:X and other audio formats. The «Voice Zoom 3» function is designed to improve the intelligibility of speech.
Both televisions have four HDMI connections. Two of them support HDMI 2.1. There are also two USB ports, a LAN port, a digital audio output, an aerial input and two satellite inputs.
Google TV is used as the operating system. It allows access to numerous streaming services, apps and voice control via Google Assistant. The devices are also compatible with Amazon Alexa. Both devices have a frameless design with an aluminium base in dark silver. You can mount this in two positions - classically flat or slightly raised, for example for placing a soundbar.
