What reviewers say

Both reviews of the 65-inch model praise Sony's picture processing and four HDMI 2.1 inputs, but criticise weak blacks. Tom's Guide recommends it for daytime viewing and gaming. RTINGS is less favourable, citing limited HDR impact and blurred 60 Hz gaming motion. Tom's Guide also finds its sound weak and price higher than competitors.
