Reviews & Ratings
The OLED TV from Sony impresses with its minimalist design. Outstanding picture quality is to be expected thanks to the OLED screen, but the Sony A8 is also one of the really good-sounding TVs. Speakers are not visible, because Sony uses the entire screen surface as a speaker. This pays off especially when mounted on a wall, as the Sony does not need a sideboard as a reflection surface...
- colourful, natural picture, rich black
- Powerful processor, fast operation
- Flexible stand concept for soundbar placement
- AirPlay 2, Disney+, Dolby Vision, Dolby Atmos
- no HDR10+
- No time shift via USB hard disk
The Sony KD-55A8 plays to all the strengths of an OLED TV: rich blacks, vibrant colours and great viewing angle stability. In addition, there is decent sound with extensive features and good ease of use. Only console players might miss the lack of HDMI 2.1 support.

- The A8 is a power guzzler
Sony's new OLED smart TV offers a top picture, excellent features and operation. Above all, the OLED model offers a lot of tried and tested features, but follows on positively from its predecessors at a high level.
