Sony BRAVIA 8 II QD-OLED 4K Google TV The Sony BRAVIA 8 II is a premium QD-OLED 4K Google TV built for customers who want a more cinematic, more refined and more natural-looking picture than a standard television can deliver. Available in 55-inch and 65-inch variants, it is a superb choice for movie lovers, premium streaming users, design-conscious living rooms and high-quality gaming setups. QD-OLED is the key technology here. By combining OLED’s pixel-level light control with the colour advantages of quantum dot technology, the BRAVIA 8 II delivers deep blacks, strong contrast and beautifully vibrant colour. Sony’s XR Processor then ties it together with natural image handling, helping faces, textures, colours and motion look realistic rather than artificial or over-processed. From an audio specialist’s point of view, the BRAVIA 8 II is also more complete than many slim TVs. Its Acoustic Surface Audio+ system uses actuators behind the panel so sound comes directly from the screen area. This helps dialogue feel more naturally connected to the image, especially before adding a soundbar or full home theatre system. Key Features Available in 55-inch and 65-inch variants QD-OLED 4K display with over 8 million self-lit pixels XR Processor with AI scene recognition for natural picture optimisation XR Triluminos Max for rich, lifelike colour volume XR Contrast Booster 25 for stronger contrast and brighter highlights XR Clear Image for cleaner upscaling and reduced source noise XR OLED Motion for smoother sport, films and fast-moving content Acoustic Surface Audio+ with screen-based sound Voice Zoom 3 for clearer dialogue Dolby Vision, HDR10 and HLG HDR support Dolby Atmos and DTS:X audio support HDMI 2.1 with 4K120, eARC, VRR, ALLM and SBTM Google TV with Chromecast built-in, Apple AirPlay and Apple HomeKit BRAVIA Theatre integration with Acoustic Center Sync on compatible Sony sound systems Why Choose the Sony BRAVIA 8 II? The BRAVIA 8 II is ideal for customers who care about picture quality first. It is not simply about brightness or screen size; it is about delivering a more filmic, natural and controlled image. The QD-OLED panel gives you excellent black levels and vibrant colour, while Sony’s XR processing helps preserve the subtle detail and realism that make movies and premium streaming content feel more convincing. It is also a very strong choice for customers who sit off-centre. QD-OLED maintains colour and luminance well from wider viewing angles, making the BRAVIA 8 II a great option for family rooms or lounges where people are not always sitting in the perfect middle seat. The two available sizes also make sense for different rooms. The 55-inch model is ideal for smaller premium rooms, apartments, bedrooms or more intimate viewing distances. The 65-inch version is the better choice for most main living rooms and media rooms where you want the picture to feel more cinematic. Picture, Sound & System Matching For picture performance, the BRAVIA 8 II is particularly strong with high-quality film, drama, documentary and premium streaming content. Sony’s tone mapping, colour handling and motion processing tend to favour a natural presentation rather than an exaggerated showroom look, which is exactly what serious movie viewers usually want. For sound, Acoustic Surface Audio+ gives the TV better dialogue placement than many conventional slim-panel designs, because voices appear to come from the screen rather than below it. For casual viewing, that is useful. For cinema use, the TV really comes alive when paired with a premium Sony BRAVIA Theatre soundbar, subwoofer and rear speakers, or with an AV receiver-based surround system. Gamers are also well covered. With 4K120, VRR, ALLM and Auto HDR Tone Mapping for PlayStation 5, the BRAVIA 8 II is well suited to current-generation console gaming while still being a serious movie-first display.

For best cinema impact, pair the BRAVIA 8 II with a premium soundbar, subwoofer or surround system. Only selected HDMI ports support 4K120 and VRR, so plan console and AV receiver connections carefully. Confirm wall bracket compatibility, VESA pattern, cable access and installation clearances before mounting. Final Word The Sony BRAVIA 8 II is a superb premium TV for customers who want cinematic picture quality, refined design and strong everyday usability. The 55-inch version is ideal for smaller premium rooms and closer viewing distances, while the 65-inch model is the better choice for most main living rooms and media rooms. Either way, BRAVIA 8 II delivers the kind of natural Sony image quality, QD-OLED colour and screen-based sound that makes it feel like a properly high-end television.
