Sony AG8 Review

 

The Sony AG8 BRAVIA TV features Dolby Vision, HDR10, Acoustic Surface and Dynamic Tone Mapping. Read our review.

Excellent black levels and shadow details ; Very good above black performance ; Excellent SDR image quality out of the box in Cinema Pro mode ; Superb colours especially with SDR content ; Very good video processing and upscaling ; Excellent motion ;...

HDR images appear dim compared to competition ; Ships with Android version 7 ; Requires manual update to Oreo at time of review ; OS and Smart TV are slow and buggy, even after update to Oreo ; Remote control is cheap and nasty on such an expensive TV...

Sony 65-Inch A8G (XBR-65A8G)

 

Sony's A8G series of 4K OLED TVs is among the most affordable we've seen, with superlative contrast but less-than-ideal color out of the box.

Perfect black levels for strong contrast performance. Wide color range. Android TV is powerful.

Colors run cool without tuning. Clunky remote. No hands-free Google Assistant.

Bottom Line: Sony's A8G series of 4K OLED TVs is among the most affordable we've seen, with superlative contrast but less-than-ideal color out of the box.

Review: Sony KD-55 AG8 | OLED TV With Hidden Powers Sony KD-55 AG8

 

Sony's new OLED TV Sony KD-55AG8 boasts extremely good picture quality, but best of all is the sound.

Sony AG8 has a razor-sharp image quality with a darkened black level. In addition, it - as one of the few TVs - boasts extremely good sound that comes directly from the TV screen.

The Sony screen does not have as strong a contrast as some of the competitors. Ease of use suffers a bit due to an antiquarian remote control.

Fantastic TV

 

I purchased the TV a week ago after speaking to your sales guy on the phone, who was really helpful and patient answering all my questions and not at all pushy, which is rare to find these days. The TV lives up to all the reviews, the picture quality...

Fantastic picture, sound good but not great

 

This is a really great TV. The picture is so clear, every colour is spot on. I found the sound a little poor but I had read this in other reviews (these ultra flat screen TVs have little space for a speaker big enough to give that bass pumping sound....

Looks amazing

 

Amazing TV picture quality. Sound comes through screen. The only disappointment is that the TV cones with Youview which is Sony version of freeview. This level of TV I think should have freeview and Freesat built in for the money.
