Best praise vs top criticism for Sony A80J

Best Praise
+14 pts
I have a 85 in LED Sony x95 and a Sony 65in a80j. The immersion of the 85 over the 65 is significant. The quality in dark scenes is so much better with the OLED. Also have some FALD Hisense and TCL TVs. They are brighter, color accuracy is objective but as I go on through life I honestly care about this less because it’s not like I am looking at both TVs at the same time side by side to know the difference. Where you may have to have some concern is motion. That Sony motion… it’s honestly special. It’s probably the only thing that makes going from TV to TV not seamless. It always takes awhile to adjust to the non Sony sets. Having said that. I’d still go with the bigger UX.

I'll be honest. I have thousands worth of audio and video gear in my home theatre and in a blind test I'll struggle to tell the difference between HDR10 and DV. If anything, with my Sony A80J, DV often looks dimmer and worse.
