Sony’s powerful new heart – Cognitive Processor XR
Taking picture and sound processing to the next level, Sony’s Cognitive Processor XR marries AI to cognitive intelligence for a picture balance that’s best suited to humans rather than just algorithms. The processor analyses every element of the picture to give a sharper image with greater depth and realism. The processor also enhances lower resolution images, giving you smoother, more natural pictures from sources such as terrestrial TV.
OLED meets XR Picture
With over eight million, self-illuminating pixels, OLED already offers sensational picture quality. For the deepest blacks and greatest contrast, it’s hard to do any better. Add XR Picture Processing, however, and you get the best Sony OLED to date. The powerful XR Picture processing simply delivers the brightest and purest images yet on a Sony 65 inch TV.
The smoothest images with OLED XR Motion Clarity and 4K XR Smoothing
Keeping the millions of pixels in check, Sony’s OLED XR Motion Clarity technology keeps the action flowing smoothly. Minimising blur, the powerful processing strikes the perfect balance between ultimate detail and the smoothest motion. 4K XR Smoothing reduces picture banding, giving a more lifelike and natural flow to images.
Picture quality as the creator intended – NCM, IMAX Enhanced, Dolby Vision and Calman Ready
Compatible with a wide range of technologies, the XR-65A80J reproduces visuals, just as the creator intended. Used with IMAX certified 4K HDR content, IMAX Enhanced uses their proprietary digital remastering technology (DMR) to deliver ultra-vivid images. If you’re a movie fan, you’ll love NCM (Netflix Calibrated Mode). NCM bypasses many of the TV’s processors, giving you a picture that’s much closer to how the filmmaker intended. Calman Ready, this TV is also ideal for those who wish to calibrate their TV to truly professional levels.
XR Sound Position with 3D Surround Upscaling for enveloping sound
Part of the Cognitive Processor XR, XR Sound Positioning works to sync the sound to the correct part of the image, as accurately as possible. XR Surround with 3D Surround Upscaling takes a regular audio signal and creates a virtual surround sound effect – making you feel more immersed in the action.
Acoustic Surface Audio+ for perfect sound to picture sync
Sony’s unique Acoustic Surface Audio+ speaker system enhances the sync between what you see and what you hear. Speakers positioned behind the screen pinpoint the sound to the action, heightening the sense of connection and realism. With enhanced actuators and tweeters fitted, the latest Acoustic Surface Audio+ version is better than ever.
New Google TV
Using Google’s world-class interface, Google TV makes accessing this Sony TV’s smart features a breeze. Customise your home screen with the apps you use the most, enjoy recommendations, curate your movie nights and even add to your watchlist via your smartphone – Google TV makes sense of Smart TV. You can also access the Sony’s picture, sound and other TV settings – keeping all you need under one ‘roof’.
Smart catch-up TV**
Catch-up on a vast range of films and TV series, the Sony’s wide-ranging app support. This includes Netflix, Prime video, Disney +, Google Play, Apple TV, Now TV, BBC iPlayer and many more. You can also cast from your smart device with Apple AirPlay and Google Chromecast built-in.
Voice control your TV
Featuring Google Assistant built-in, this Sony TV effortlessly becomes part of your Google/Android home network. The Voice Remote lets you search in an easy, natural way. If you prefer to use a different platform, the Sony is compatible, too. Apple AirPlay and Homekit compatibility makes it possible to integrate with your Apple system. Support for Amazon Alexa devices also means you can voice control via your existing Alexa device.

Upgrade your gaming, with feature-packed HDMI 2.1 interface
Featuring HDMI 2.1 ports, the Sony XR-65A80J packs a range of enhancements to optimise your gaming. 4K/120Hz compatibility, ALLM (Auto Low Latency Mode) and VRR* (Variable Refresh Rate) combine to improve resolution, lower input lag and maximise detail. This means you’ll be quicker to see enemies lurking in the shadows and faster to react when you need to fight.
*ALLM and VRR due later in the year via firmware update.
3-way multi-position stand
Supplied with a 3-way, multi-position stand, the XR-65A80J is ideal for all types of installation. Dedicated settings are available for use on a narrow support (feet positioned closer together), with soundbar (higher and further apart) or in the standard, low profile position.

Class as usual from Sony
Very Happy with this fantastic Screen. The picture quality lifts movie and gaming experiences onto another level, and the remote and menu structure is exactly what i expect from Sony. The sound is also better than i have experienced so far, on other sets, and that is without using a sound bar. These sets are not the cheapest but i did not go for the latest model thereby saving myself a lot of money. I wish there where more options for the placement of the Feet that support the screen as they are rather big but other than that i have no complaints.

Excellent picture and easy to use
Very pleased with the TV, picture is great and relatively simple to use. Only negative was the set up for the 55" model, there wasn't a slide out section in the polystyrene to set up the stand so had to get some extra hands to help, would have been good to have instructions on the box, unless you've seen the YouTube video you wouldn't know the proper way to set up. Would have preferred a central stand instead of legs but seems like that's standard these days.

SONY TV's the 55XD8005 and the new XR A80J OLED TV
My SONY 55XD8005 stopped working after less than 5 years of use (!!!??? 5 blinks of red I had a SONY 55XD8005 TV and after less than 5 years it stopped working !!!??? the red light blinked 5 times - Panel failure (I have two Samsung TV's the work fine after more than 10 years), so it is on the way to the trash. I decided to buy the XR 55A80J TV and it looks great, very good picture and sound, a good value for money. I hope that it will last more than 5 years, otherwise it will be the last SONY TV I buy.
