Bravia 8ii actually performs just as good as the A95L if not better. I checkout at one of the Sony centre in KV. They place all 3 OLEDs, 8ii, A95L and 8 side by side. And of course they are running retail vivid mode.

Color volume wise wRGB has no match. Fiery fire remains orangey on the QD-OLED from the front and stays consistent when viewed at angle from the side with no desaturation. Bravia 8 fiery fire is more faded bright orange/yellow. This is just one example.

G5 also has the dithering issue going on.

depending on individual preference. if one can fork out more for the highest end model, obviously one can get more from it as every money u paid counts.
but as said, OLED is decent enough to most ppl.
if $$ is not the concern, sky is the limit. No point discussing as all know that it will be better.

8 ii should be better and price is cheaper.
just funny thing is sony did not refresh 77-inch variant for A95L to 8 ii while A95L 77-inch remains the only choice for QD-OLED for ppl who wants big and again QD-OLED.

just funny thing sony malaysia only has 65-inch A95L and not even 77-inch selling and 65-inch A95L is rm4k++ more ex than 8 ii 65-inch which no one should be stoopig to choose this over 8 mark ii.

sony added bravia 2 ii as also. makes the line-up even more confusing to buyers, but of course with more variants, it may capture buyers with all kind of budgets. but 2 models of LCD with no local dimming.

3 models of mini-leds with local dimming

find it a big redundant...

bravia 2 ii - rm3999 for 65-inch
bravia 3- rm4699 for 65-inch...

price difference is minimal and the price difference justify for the better parts of bravia 3 vs bravia 2 ii.
as some commented here also bravia 3 in terms of brightness is already bare minimum. if bravia 2 ii is lower than it... it is not fantastic budget option also.

65" S90D is around 7.9k-8.2k on shopee as of now. And it's not the matte screen while retaining best color volume and brightness.

I think it's the best bang for the buck.

that's indeed not bad deal.

but i prefer sony only, and so far i only bought sony... tongue.gif

it is certain that QD-OLED is super than OLED for sure. else it won't justify for the extra price paid for.

ultimately it is still subjected to individual's budget and how much u are willing to spend more on a TV.

personally i will aim for a bigger OLED TV first before considering QD-OLED as it is still very ex.

55-inch OLED to me is not too big since my living room is not big.
(good thing for not living in a big house)
but bigger is always better.

besides, QD-OLED is not totally flawless as compared to OLED.
during day time, with reflection, the QD-OLED screen can appear more greyish (not true black) as OLED.

i think electrical appliances sometimes also depend heavily on luck.

if lucky, it can really last very long, if not lucky then after warranty can spoil easily.

My SONY TVs purchased to date all can last beyond 10 years or more.

even the electrolux fridge, washer and dryer i bought since 2014 and use until today they are still working perfectly.

sometimes really luck matters.

Most of the manufacturer nowdays above 32 inch they will come to your doorstep for diagnose and repair 🐝🐝🐝

yes, i complained about one of the usb ports speed was significantly slower than the other usb port which is on the same standard usb 2.0.

sony support came to my house and changed the motherboard for free although in the end it was discovered that not the mobo issue, but at least they came to diagnose and eventually changed me a new mobo. tongue.gif

So what's the issue actually, did you managed solve the problem?

At least you got a new mobo for free πŸ˜…

As mentioned it is just one of the USB 2.0 port has slower speed than the other side by side one.

So it is quite weird and that’s was the reason why I bought it up to Sony before 2 years warranty expired.

Even the technician cannot explain that so end up they just replace the mobo for me but after replacement still the same. So not tv specific prob.

How "slow" is it though...? But I recalled one is 2.0 another is 3.0? I'm using the 3.0 as my ethernet 1gbe connection  laugh.gif

It has total 3 ports, 1 x usb 3.0 and 2 x USB 2.0

3.0 no issue when play video and fast forward is almost instant.

Even 1 of the USB 2.0 is also quite instant.

Except one is slow. How slow? The other two I fast forward it will take 1 second at most while the other can take 8 to 12 sec.

So it is significant.

I am using wireless - so speed wise not a concern. Since it has at least wifi 5. More than fast enough for anything can do on the tv.

Only ethernet port is limited to 100Mbps so I dun use.
