Setting up the A80J with the PS5 and Gaming settings.

I got the 65 inch in September which was my first 4K. Yes first! Hell of a way to start.
I may be late to the game, but this is an excellent review!! Just got the A80J mostly for movies and TV. Love to see more of your reviews!!
Excellent review, really enjoyed that.
That's great, Im glad you enjoyed it. 😃
Love the intro. Felt like you were preparing for battle.
Warzone baby.!!
For whatever reason nobody talks about Sony's streaming app (Bravia Core), which is included with the purchase of this tv along with Apple + (not sure for how long the Apple + is).
Depending on the size of the tv, you can get up to 10 free movies to redeem in the app. Most of the movies are IMAX enhanced and look amazing.
I'm truly loving this tv, hdr and dolby vision looks and sounds amazing!
As for gaming, the ps5 now has vrr and this tv received an update that supports it as well as ALLM.
Hey man, a dedicated video on gaming on this TV will be really appreciated. I'm planning on buying this.
Yes I am working on that video, it's coming up soon stay tuned 😃
I just bought this tv. Setting it up next weekend 👊🏻
55 A80j I picked it up at Amazon 998$ I loved
Great content as always 👍👊
Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed the video 😃
Definitely love to see a head 2 head. If you can, please show how they handle dark scenes. One complaint about the C1 was that it crushed shadow detail compared to the A80J.
It handles dark scenes much better than the C1 (and pictures are better too). Great TV.
It should be noted that I turned my a80 in for a C1 and love the LG. The picture quality is no different and you get much better hardware out of the box. Apparently I had a faulty panel on my first C1, making dark scenes horrible. The only pro at this point is google tv with Sony, but it’s not good enough to justify the higher price. Go for the C1.
My worry is the sound
@@yuriwolfvt Got this tv about a month ago and the sound is amazing. It supports Dolby atmos. Stranger things is probably the best show to test dolby atmos 👍
Just brought a 77 inch a80j on Amazon early prime day for $1999. Absolute steal!
Nice.!!
Picking up an open box 65" from Best Buy tonight for $1879. Currently have a 55" LG B8 so I am looking forward to comparing them.
I just saw a 65" LG C1 open box for $1000 at bestbuy 😲
Damn 1k?! Is the C1 a better tv?
I bought the a90j last year , I think is the best tv I ever owned ,
For how much it cost I would hope so!
Until A95K arrive to store's 😁
Awesome TV bro.
This tv looks fantastic! Just wondering if you hooked up the Nakimachi 9.2.4..and were there any problems with the sound. I’ve heard there has been some issues.
I connected it and so far no issues.
Good video Joelster
Thanks 😊
I'm planning to wait to see this year's offerings. I'm a nit-picky pixel peeper!
Oh wow the 55” is only 1000$ right now thats a heck of a deal i might have to snag this soon or should i get the a80 or a90k?
I went for the A80j. It looks better than C1
Game that I would recommend is Uncharted the PS5 remaster @120fps! Incredible, I'm playing this on the LG CX - highly recommend.
Great Video, Great Content, Awesome channel! 👍
Oh man, I don't have that game, but I do want to buy the new Horizon zero down, I have been testing COD cold war at 120hz, Warzone, Ghost of tsushima, Spider-Man.
Bought the Sony 77 a80j at Cosco an hour ago, crazy deal. 2 years more warranty. Plus a 500$ cash card, plus 250 in rewards. Can't beat it.
I bought the Sony A80J about a month ago for $1799. I was going to buy the A90J but I couldn't justify the $1200 difference. I think with A90J it seems you get more brightness in the HDR and a little more detail in the picture. However, I like my A80J in the 65' its a great TV.
@@avg0062 bro. how is the motion when smoothness set to 1 , clearness low, cinemotion low. does it have noticeable judder.
@@rv6569 the settings that you mention above, motion will have noticeable judder. What did for motion for movies was I set motionflow to custom, and smoothness to max, clearness to 1 and cinemotion to high. For cable TV I kept motionflow, and clearness the same, and just set cinemotion to low. The motion was improved with little to no judder. These settings that I mention here the motion was pretty smooth. I feel these settings will activate the X-motion charity in the A80J. You can try them and see what you think? This should be helpful.
just got one for 800 open box xr65a80j
What about black crush ? How are shadow details visible compared to VA LED TV (for SDR) ? I prefer shadow details more than absolute black, which is very very rare in real world.
Hi can you check bottom your screen main deals like bottom of the screen feels like panels are not in place or something got some movement and making noise like has air trap 🪤under the screen best to describe is like I have screen protector and air trap under it like noises from bottom of the screen.
As a current owner of a Sony A80J, I mostly agree with your review. However, one detail that you and ALL reviewers of this TV have not talked about.....RELIABILITY! I don't know about you, but I consider reliability at the TOP of MY list, especially when spending close to $2000. Fun fact....Consumer Reports has SONY as the MOST RELIABLE BRAND, PERIOD! CR has SONY listed above ALL TVs in EVERY category! For proof, check out their 2020 and 2022 "Buying Guide". Spoiler alert........VIZIO is the MOST UNRELIABLE brand. Just my 2cents worth.
Very excellent point I want my expensive toys to last. And I can tell you that the 26-in Sony TV that I purchased in the year 2009 is still kicking and ticking!
The 2008 Sony PMW EX1? I still use it! Just had to replace the batteries a couple years ago.
Agree 100%. I’m never buying Vizio again (got my TV replaced 3 times under warranty, then the 4th one died after the warranty expired).
Sony is the Toyota of tv's. Vizio is more like a Nissan.
Please put on the youtube news show "rising" which is on "the hill" youtube page. In any setting you put on out the box, their faces and background and color and the color in general is so off. Why does this happen? In lg c1 it doesn't happen like that.
Really having a hard time deciding between this and the X95J. Do you have any recommendations or which do you prefer? I mainly watch Netflix and sports and do a very small amount of gaming on the series x
Definitely go for the A80J, better contrast and blk levels, picture looks amazing, great for sports too.
Que onda Joelster! What speaker or sound bar do you use?
Que onda, I have the Nakamichi shockwafe 7.2.4 with Dolby Atmos, the sound is amazing, I did a review, you can see it here. czcams.com/video/TYlTyqQow4Y/video.html
got the a80j 65 for 1650€
Hello. Is this still worth it in 2024? Planning to get the 65inch open box for 999? Thanks. Itll be my first oled
Have you experienced network connection issues? WiFi cuts out about once a week and I have it now connected directly to the router via ethernet and lost connection again yesterday. Annoying
Just bought a 80j...On the main screen it's dark(dim)...if I go to say youtube..then go over some of my content, and it plays the vid while not clicking the vid the screen brightens right up? This is out of box settings, is this normal? And some shows brighten up and most dont?
How come when i try to watch 4k hdr movies (fury road) on my PS5, it keeps telling me "this player is not connected to a High Dynamic Range compatible tv. Isn't one of the feature of this tv is 4k hdr 120 hz? I'm confused. I might have to return this tv.
They had this 65 inch at 1795 at costco on Black Friday time period. Is that a good price ?
Yesss, thats a great price.
Hello. I am thinking about buying the A80J. Been struggling with judder on my LG 55B7 for years. Can anyone tell me more about motion handling? How does the A80J do? Is it good with all sources? All your input is very much appreciated. There are owners who do report judder and owners that say no judder at all. It is the one thing i really need to be sure of before i buy. Thank you all in advance!
Exactly zero response:-).
nice video
Today i had to replace 2 lg c1 tvs.. both had some stupid problem in the screen . Finally ive ordered the a80j ... ill receive it with in 3 days.
How is it so far?
@@goalazo93 just perfect... i really cant say anything negative about it .
@@narges78 Sweet! Glad to hear. I ordered a LG c1 but decided to exchange it for an a80j in the last minute. Can’t wait :)
@@goalazo93 u will love it ..enjoy 😊
@@narges78 Do you like the sony a80j a bit better than the c1 ?
🤘
If both TV's are at the same price... Which one you picking honestly??? These are the 2 TV's I'm looking at buying and I'm leaning more towards the Sony at the moment
Well, I haven't run it to serious issues yet but the TV turns on by it self, today was the second time I wake up and it's on, also it has picture retention, I've been gaming on it and I noticed picture retention when I changed scene, it went away a few minutes later by it doesn't have preventing screen burn features like LG. Besides that the picture is fantastic.
the best tv 2021 sony a80j a90j best tv 2021
I say a80j and spend 80 for light up remote lol
I bought the 65 and just exchanged it for the 77.
Great decision.
Comparing a80j with C1
Have a ps5 play mainly soccer and God of war etc, and watch lots of sports on my Apple TV … any advice which is better for my need ?
Either one will do a great job, the C1 has more gaming features but both look great, I would go for who cost less and save some money.
What about longevity? That's one of my main things
I just got the Sony a80j and I'm ready to take it back I'll stick with my TCL 825
Why, what happened.?😲
It doesn't get bright enough
Sony A80J 77” or Samsung B95 65” QD, which one gaming/ size, size or extra color?
Destiny 2 gameplay in cave area, loot caves or nightfalls. Will be mostly playing this. Thanks!
Would you go for a Refurbished A80J 77" for $1999 or LG CX Refurbed for $2099 77"
The Sony no question,whole generation newer and better processing
Which tv has better upscaling for like 1080p/720p content?
Upscaling is way better on Sony imo and I’ve had both tvs. Sdr on the c1 is horrific for it’s price and being an Oled. So if you enjoy old school movies, the upscaling is better on the Sony.
@@Elric33 thanks for the feedback!
Samsung Qled has the best upscaling I've ever owned
Sony x95h second, lg cx c9 have bad upscaling
hello, is it true that a80j dims all screen when there is static logo such as football match.
And has worse image retention fixing time and stutter compared to C1 ?
I haven't experienced the dimming issue with logos or subtitles but i did noticed the image retention and got a scared, I wasn't expecting that but it went away the next day.
ANYBODY ELSE HAVING ISSUES WITH THEIR SONY WIFI NOT STAYING CONNECTED? EVERY SINGLE DAY, THERE'S ISSUES WITH STAYING CONNECTED TO WIFI. WHAT WERE THEY THINKING, IT'S A SMART TV IN 2022... SONY DROPPED THE BALL ON THIS.
X95j or a80j??
Yes this
Hey, let me know if your down to join up and play some Warzone. PS5 or Xbox x California adult player
Yes, I will be online in about an hour on xbox playing WZ.
@@JoelsterG4k same name for your gamer tag?
Does it look better than qn90a ?
QN90A has blooming. Got to remember this is a OLED even tho its not a A90J, The contrast level of this oled is infinite so your going to get deeper blacks, More of a tighter picture. Solid option compared to a LED imo..
Just looking @ 5:00 timestamp. QN90A would look washed out next to it. Gears looks amazing on it to
It depends if in a living room or bedroom and if you're coming from a plasma ,or old oled or a qled i had the 77 sony a80j and i unfortunately had to return it, i cant stand dim tvs as ive been a qled user for years. 85 inch qn85a is perfect for me now, i hope that helps
@@helbert8205 it's not even that dim. Store room in best buy is much brighter no issues.. Im not a big fan of blooming so the LED is out. I think QLED has spoiled people thinking brighter is better but tvs that has contrast as a priority will always look better which OLED is it. NO blooming, Nothing looking washed out, No black mixed in with grey,
Again tho yea OLED is dimmer but i think its over exaggerated on how dim it is thus ive seen a few games on there no problems and again stores like best buy their lighting system is blinding but still OLED pops with no problems
I tested the Samsung QN85A and that TV looks great so I assume the QN90A looks better, this Oled has excellent picture but as I mentioned in the video is good for a dark room, if there are windows or if there are lights around the TV go for the Samsung.
@@JoelsterG4k That could be so, When i look at tvs at best buy showroom thats brighter then anything their OLEDS sorta puts down the "you need a dark room" for it to be visible which i can see the oled just fine. Dark room is better tho 100% but i think some of it has been placebo effect and people following others. Just like the battle between contrast and peak brightness most enthusiast know that it starts with contrast but as time goes on alot of people think its peak brightness but when i look at it, No matter how much peak brightness there is if the contrast is meh or low its going to look a little washed out and it wont have that punch. Which is the reason why i like OLED more. Ive seen plenty of QLEDS even seen the neo led. They all look wicked from a brightness level but they all feel like its missing something, They lack Depth but other then that they look great the highlights of hdr is there
Just my 2 cents
To bid a remote. I heard Sony had motion problems
I have been watching movies and gaming and I haven't run into any issues.
They got more problems than just motion, sports is so unwatchable on a80j for example.
@@Theoneandonlyearthhuman..how so?
@@kiellieferickson5506 the color isn't right, and it is soo dim. Faces look red. Out the box a80j isn't good.
@@Theoneandonlyearthhuman ..I’m about to buy one in a few weeks..I never heard anyone say that before..you might’ve got a bad panel
I got a 77in A80J for 1700 dollars at micro center westmont Il whoever sees this you’re welcome
You waste your money bro
Save your money for 2022 model tv
I just wanted to test the TV, I am not going to keep it.
Why wasted? 2022s are going to be way more expensive!
@@chadsteitzer7279 Unfortunately
LG LOOKS BETTER!
Not even close I have both
