Sony Bravia 8 II.
QD-OLED panel with Sony's acclaimed picture processing and Acoustic Surface Audio+ that turns the panel into the speaker.
The Verdict.
Gavler Meta-Score
“Sony's approach is fundamentally different from LG's — less about raw specs and more about making everything you watch look and sound cinematic. If you care about movies and TV more than gaming benchmarks, the Bravia 8 II is the most rewarding TV experience you can buy.”
The Gavler Verdict
