v good
Very good nice tv looks well on my cabinet great picture esp specially in HD
alan the great
Great Purchase
I bought this TV to replace my 15 year old Sony Bravia in the hope that we wouldn’t need quite so many controllers; TV, PVR, Sound Bar, Blue Ray, and Fire Stick. This has proven to be a great choice, everything is simplified. We don’t need the Sound Bar or Fire Stick, will only need the Blue Ray controller to open it, and we can also record on the external hard drive I bought instead of the PVR. We still use the PVR to set up series record, although I’m sure that as we get more used to catch up channels this will also go in time

Great TV when set up properly
A great tv with fantastic picture, but took a while to get there. In short, OLEDs are not very bright on a tv this size, and various power-saving options and poor initial configuration didn't help. Chat GPT did help, and I followed recommendations with a bit of tweaking. Disappointed that the TV record app is so primitive. It should have been integrated with the youview app. Back to watching though, it's the best I've seen with my final tweaks over ChatGPT of colour at 25% and black point at 60-70%. The other key settings are custom mode, Luminance max.

GREAT OLED TV
Sony do seem to have got things right again. Quality of picture is outstanding although I don't really use the speakers as I have a sound bar. This was easy to set up again. Price is always more for a Sony tv. However they do seem to work for a long time. Never had a problem with them as genuine Sony TVs offer a great priduct

A90K BRAVIA XR OLED, good performance all round
I needed to update and have a second TV which gave video with good black levels simialr to the old TV CRT's. This unit was an ease to set up and the picture quality is excellent. My first Sony flat screen is now over 12 years old so this is a stepping stone to own a new current Sony larger variant. The sound quality of the A90K is good even when the soundbar is turned off. I was a little sceptical of Google TV now it's all apps but I should not have been as you have the ability to subscribe, buy, rent and even watch free TV.

Oled looks amazing
I bought this just before xmas, and I am very pleased with the TV. My old Sony TV is still going strong, but is 16 years old. My wife and I decided on a little bit of a whim to look at new TVs. I knew what I wanted in terms of spec and manufacturer. This TV ticked all my boxes, Very pleased with this purchase.

Hi,
Thank you for your question.
Yes, if you connect headphones to the XR-48A90K it will automatically mute as the TV is designed to send audio to only one of the outputs at a time. However, sound can be output from both an audio system and the TV speakers at the same time using a digital optical cable. You can learn more here: https://cutt.ly/Nr7vmZ09...
Additionally, you can find the TV specifications at this link: https://cutt.ly/Nr7vERGU...

Hi Banabelle,
No, the XR-48A90K doesn't necessarily need a soundbar. Sony's Acoustic Surface Audio technology implemented in this TV model is designed to deliver immersive sound directly from the screen. It creates a wide soundstage and can provide a satisfying audio experience without additional speakers. So, whether you need a soundbar or not, depends on your personal preferences and how much you value audio quality, if you're looking for a more powerful and immersive audio experience, you can check this link to learn more about the TV: https://cutt.ly/JeRnPSdK...

Hi Samjr, in our 2021 lineup, we didn't have a 48 Inch OLED TV. The main difference between the 2021 and the 2022 line up is going to be the introduction of the Bravia Cam as well as the Camera functions, also the new Voice remote control, this model has a built-in MIC switch and has Netflix calibrated mode. We recommend checking this link for the specifications and features: http://bit.ly/3XrYclo...
