Sony Bravia KD-65XF8505 - Pros & Cons

Sony Bravia KD-65XF8505

plentiful and clear
and vocals sound authentic
the XF85 s rear are solid enough for its money
sound is actually pretty good
crisp and clear delivery with plenty of detail and a surprisingly wide soundstage
Sony is surprisingly impressive

It s nearly impossible to use in a dark room
there s no local dimming system in play
makes the picture look either a bit too blue or a bit too red respectively
IPS panels have traditionally failed to deliver convincing black levels
some of those cut backs have had a massively detrimental effect
dark scenes are left looking unconvincing and drab
a bright element or two looks painfully grey and washed out
suffers quite badly with stutter and lag
the edge backlight implementation is particularly poor
the set uses an edge backlight
smaller models have been somewhat neglected
backlight badly lets the side down
it represents a truly painful step down in quality

May I stream videos from Netflix on Bravia KD-65XF8505?

If your TV is listed as a smart TV in the technical specifications as in this case, it should have the ability to connect to the internet and run streaming apps like Netflix. However, it is always a good idea to double-check that the TV has a Netflix app or that Netflix is listed as a supported app on the manufacturer's website or in the TV's manual. To watch Netflix on your smart TV, you will also need a stable internet connection and a Netflix subscription. Once you have these, you can set up your TV to connect to the internet and access the Netflix app through the TV's home screen or menu. If you can't find the Netflix app or if it is not listed as a supported app, you may need to check with the manufacturer to see if there is a way to add it or if it is not supported on your specific model.

Sony XF8505 review: HDR woes hold back this 4K TV

Is Sony's step-down edge-lit 4K HDR TV for 2018 worth the cut in price, or does its HDR performance lack? HDR, 4K, TV, television

Sony XF85 review: Sony's latest attempt to deliver an affordable 4K TV goes badly wrong. This edge-lit IPS panel can't do HDR.
