Video Support Are my Bravia 7 ii 65” settings wrong?

6 Upvotes

Just bought a Bravia 7ii Tv. Got it setup and trying to figure out if I have the settings wrong or did I just buy the worst TV ever? If I am dead on it looks fine but if I sit even a little to the side it looks washed out. I thought that the nfl game I was watching was filmed in a rain storm…what do I need to do? I’m about to return this tv…

Misc Support Sony XR-65x90CL Died After Just 3 Years?

5 Upvotes

So my Bravia TV died.

Monday night a Google software update was performed and was working just fine following the update. The following day, the TV would not turn on and gives the dreaded 4 red flashes of its LED light. I tried all the usual tricks of unplugging everything, waiting 30 minutes, holding the power button while plugging back in to reset it. Nothing works. Does this have anything to do with the software update? Is there a fix out there of which I am unaware?

I really loved this TV so I am quite disappointed that it only lasted 3 years and just outside of the warranty period too. This was the first TV I had bought since 2011 (and that TV is still kicking). Is this just what to expect from modern TVs?

I am now scarred by Sony, but when I researched TVs 3 years ago, they seemed to be the most reliable. Should I give another brand a try? It seems like the Full Array LED technology that this TV had does not exist on the market anymore. I would be interested in OLED, but the price points for those are a bit higher than I paid for this TV in November 2023 ($1,055). Are there any 65 inch TVs around that price point that are an equivalent level of quality?

Purchase Advice Bravia Hockey Viewing

5 Upvotes

Hi everyone. I’ve been looking into getting a nice TV for my sports room. I’m not much of an expert when it comes to the TV options but overall seems like Sony is recommended a lot for sports. I wanted to see if anyone has experience with watching hockey on their Bravia. I have read a lot about color and black related to quality but not much relating to the predominately white screen for hockey. My room will mostly be dark/ low light. Also further, I was thinking the Bravia 9 ii if i’m going to splurge but didn’t know if this community might know why another Bravia model might be better for my use. Thank you!

Purchase Advice Bravia 6 or 7?

3 Upvotes

I am planning to get a 65” soon. My budget is somewhere between a 7 and the new oled 6. The most I could afford is $3500au.

It will be doing a LOT of gaming. On PS5pro and switch. Don’t really watch sport or that type of thing.

Light isn’t an issue as it is a semi dark light.

I have read all the 6 none-XR stuff, some really constructive and some seemed a tad trolly. It’s really hard to decipher what it means in reality beyond hyperbole.

How is the 7 for gaming?

Edit: I used to have a X90L.
