What customers say
The Sony A80K OLED TV earns high praise primarily for its stunning visual performance and immersive audio. Viewers consistently highlight the perfect blacks, infinite contrast, and vibrant, accurate colors delivered by the Cognitive Processor XR. Motion handling is exceptionally smooth, enhancing cinematic appeal. A key feature is the Acoustic Surface Audio+ technology, which uses the screen as a speaker, producing rich, well-localized sound that often eliminates the immediate need for a separate soundbar. While it supports essential gaming features, some users note fewer dedicated HDMI 2.1 ports than competitors. Overall, the A80K is celebrated as a premium entertainment centerpiece offering an exceptional blend of superior picture quality and integrated sound.
Know before you buy
The TV uses actuators behind the OLED panel to vibrate the screen itself, turning it into a speaker. This ensures that sound comes directly from the action on screen, creating a much more immersive and directional audio experience than traditional bottom-firing speakers.
Yes, it includes exclusive features like Auto HDR Tone Mapping, which optimizes HDR settings during initial console setup, and Auto Genre Picture Mode, which automatically switches the TV to Game Mode when you start playing.
While OLEDs are known for perfect blacks rather than peak brightness, this model uses a high-luminance panel and a temperature sensor to manage light output effectively. It performs well in most living spaces, though it is best suited for rooms where you can control direct glare.
This TV is compatible with a 300mm x 300mm VESA mount. As long as your current wall mount supports that pattern and the 51.2-pound weight of the unit, it should be compatible.
The processor uses XR 4K Upscaling to intelligently analyze and recreate lost textures and details in lower-resolution content. It effectively cleans up images from cable TV or older streaming sources to make them look closer to 4K quality.
Yes, Google TV provides access to virtually all major streaming services, including Netflix, Disney+, Prime Video, and YouTube. You can also use the built-in Google Assistant to search for content across these apps using voice commands.
