The screen is the speaker with Acoustic Surface Audio+ for sound that moves with the picture. 3-way aluminium stand with standard, narrow or soundbar position. Perfect for PlayStation 5, a Gaming Menu with Crosshair and Custom Screen size and more. Hands-free voice control with Google TV and full of eco features.

OLED is the pinnacle of picture quality, delivering exceptionally pure blacks and gorgeous peaks of brightness for depth and texture that feels real. On the A80L, we've paired our stunning new OLED panel with XR OLED Contrast Pro to boost the colour and contrast like never before!
Our Acoustic Surface Audio + technology makes everything more immersive by turning the A80L screen into a speaker - just like a cinema screen! Large actuators invisibly vibrate the TV screen to create powerful acoustics that move with the action, whilst left and right built-in subwoofers boost bass.
A sophisticated design, the A80L features a Metal Flush Surface Bezel that will harmonise with any interior. The 3-way, slim wedge, aluminium TV stand offers ultimate convenience; choose the standard position, narrow position for smaller furniture surfaces, or the raised position for your soundbar.
Perfect for PlayStation 5, the A80L features ALLM in HDMI 2.1 for smooth, responsive gameplay and Auto HDR Tone Mapping to reveal crucial details in the darkest and brightest parts of the screen. There's even a dedicated Gaming Menu that includes our brand-new Crosshair and Custom Screen features.
Access 700,000+ movies and TV episodes from across your streaming services on this Google TV, with everything organised to suit your personal interests. You can even set aside your remote and go hands-free with Voice Search!

Very clever TV but very complex to set up and use
This is a very clever and complex TV that (appears to me) needs a degree to set it up and use. The documentation provided is generally very helpful but just difficult to use, it also assume a somewhat detailed understanding of electronics! A much better and easier to use presentation would be to group all the relevant information for setting up and using the TV against a numer of real like situations. For exaple- using the TV on its own; using the TV with an existing set top box (e.g.- I use EE's); using the TV with a sound bar (I use Sonos) or my own situation using the TV with an existing set top box and a sound bar. That way a user could not be baffled by non-relevant information and could concentrate of just the information required. This would require little extra work for you except for (PLEASE) simplifying some of the techinicalities. As an example- I've been trying for several weeks to find out how to equalise the sound when changing watching from the TV's own sound level which is very loud to that when I change over to watching a recording I've made on my set top box.

Sony’s Signature
Very happy with this unit, our second Sony OLED in our household. Sony holds its commitment to bringing cinema home, maintaining picture quality and integrity. Setup was a breeze and the little touches are appreciated across the unboxing journey. This is Sony’s signature and it doesn’t disappoint. It’s a pleasure to watch.

OLED wow . Sound rocks as well
Iam genuinely so pleased with this. Think I got a bargain. Turns old TV series and movies into exceptional viewings quality. Don't think an s sound center soundbar is required as I think the speakers are that good all though I might in future but be surprised in what a soundbar could do to this . It's fast and snappy for smart features as well. Haven't encountered any faults . Go grab a bargain like I did . O

Good picture but BBC apps and start up let it down
The Sony Bravia XR‑55A80L has very good picture quality and sound. YouTube runs smoothly and shows the hardware can deliver when the app is solid. Unfortunately, the BBC apps (News and iPlayer) are very unstable. I’ve had repeated crashes, spinning circles, pixel storms, and even shutdowns when using them. The Live TV & Catch‑up service is also slow to respond, and the TV takes too long to start up in the morning. Since I mainly rely on BBC services, these issues make everyday use frustrating. To confirm the problem, I’ve ordered a Chromecast with Google TV (4K) to test BBC streaming externally. If that works, it will show the fault lies with the Bravia’s app handling, not my broadband. For a UK customer, reliable BBC access is essential. Until this is fixed, the TV feels incomplete despite its good picture and sound.

Very good but a couple of niggles
I bought this 3 weeks ago as a replacement for my 2014 bravia. I already have the 65" version which I bought in 2023 so expected the same with a smaller screen. A couple of things which disappointed were the feet position which are towards the edges with no option for a more central position for smaller TV units and also the length of the feet which stick out of the front a lot further and means the TV has to sit back further on the stand and obscures part of the screen unless you're sat opposite. The other bug bear was the remote feels cheap and doesn't illuminate like my 65" does. Apart from that, it's as every bit as good as expected, picture quality is amazing and Dolby Atmos content really has you looking around for where the sounds coming from. I was going to try a highly rated LG oled but am happy enough with my choice this time.
