Sony A80J with PS5 Initial setup and gaming settings

[@xBU11ETPROOFx]

I've said this many times but I'll say it again, OLED is just amazing!

[@tears2040]

Until it starts to get work and the screen begins to dim…….. Unless it has a Heat Sink or you can disable this horrible feature then many Oleds simply are not good for gaming because of this. A90J and the G1 are the only two tvs I know as far as Oled here in the ISA that have very minimal dimming. Regardless I would still take any top of the line non Oled tv for gaming and at times movie watching due to the higher peak brightness for hdr. Contrast is excellent on Oleds , but they need to work on getting their brightness around 1000+ nits

[@xBU11ETPROOFx]

@@tears2040 All I can say is I've been using my LG CX since May 2020 & up to this point the image quality is just gorgeous when gaming. I've never noticed any dimming till now. I understand there is no perfect technology when it comes to TV, the important thing is that you like what you see on your TV that you bought. I'm really looking forward to the next evolution of OLEDs, the QD-OLEDS & Micro LED. It's really exciting!

[@reviewforthetube6485]

Yep I game on my a90j more then my lg c9 just the image quality and look and then it feels one buttery smooth. Even my c9 has hiccups but my a90j never does. Also great job with the preference settings! As long as you use what you like that's what matters. I'm happy you are enjoying the a80j as much as I'm enjoying my sony oled. Test reality creation higher my dude, it's insane when gaming.

[@lionsden5123]

Is this TV worth buying for gaming? How’s the gaming experience in FPS games?

[@YavNe]

And even the A90J suffers from dimming issues which reduces the picture quality even than the sh**ty LG G1. XDDD You don't need it much on high resolution, otherwise it would cause artifacts I believe. But on low resolution.

[@reviewforthetube6485]

@@YavNe reality creation in ganem mode works very well I don't usually use it high on anything else. Only gaming also reality creation isn't just a sharpness enhancer it truely brings out detail yoy didn't lnow was there. Test it on a star field next to another TV yoy can turn it uo and see extra stars pop up thT weren't there before. It's the first yesr reality creation has done this. It used to be purely for sharpness now it's pretty hard to oversharpen with it. Sometimes it can create issues on content but it's rare of course I'm not saying use it all the way up that's up to you. I'm just telling him and others to test it out that's all.

[@Blackdragon79]

Now that VRR is available. Will you do an update video?

[@BEEFTEEF4]

I love gaming on my A80J. I’m gaming God of War Ragnarok and the hundreds of highlights against pitch black is so great with the OLED. The fast moving snow is also amazing with the pixel refresh times.

[@JoelsterG4k]

Yes Oleds look amazing, I love the picture and performance you get in one display.

[@thelukygamer17]

1) the game presets are presets, they don’t change the game at all, they simply change the mode in which you play without going in the settings of the game (if you put performance and the game doesn’t have a performance mode it doesn’t change at all) 2) the panel is not meant to be put under max brightness and max peak luminescence for hours (that’s why there is an auto mode…), also the game looks only worse if you are in a really dark room with that settings, it will look overexposed to your eyes, the tv does all the work adjusting all the settings to have the best picture quality and to see better when you exit an in-game dark space or an in-game bright space 3) I don’t think the ps5 enhances the game to support hdr, but I’m not sure so I won’t complain much 4) the panel is not as bright as an lcd because it will use more electricity and heat up even more, also the pixels would wear out first, so there’s a limit of time to how many seconds they can reach the peak luminescence 5) the thing that you can control the ps5 with the tv’s remote can be done on every tv that has a hdmi e arc/arc, also you can set it up to turn on the tv with the ps5, the ps5 with the tv and the same thing turning them off

[@stevenloy1086]

Thank you! Just got this TV and the ps5 kept saying Hdr was not on, didn't have enhanced mode on. Thank you!

Hi man! Sometimes while playing or watching movies on my Sony a80j, the bezels (sometimes the left side and sometimes right side, but not both at the same time) become bigger, and when I return to the Home Menu the screen returns normal, do you think it is normal? I can barely see something similar happens to yours, is it normal?

[@HUYI1]

Yes I turned it on with the enhanced setting on this TV with the latest update, picture looks good so far!

[@RedSavage7]

VRR is for fast response times from controller to screen once you try it and go back to Enhance 4k you can’t go back you will notice the delay only bad part about VRR is less image quality you lose graphics which are not so noticeable but over all is your taste

[@FredT1988]

Have you experienced the annoying dimming while watching content or playing games?

[@erfanpirmoradi9797]

Hi just subscribed. love your comparison videos. I just have 2 questions. Sorry if this comment is gonna be long. So i just bought an sony 55” a80j last week from best buy for 1000$ in 4th of july deals (it was 1700$ before sale)and i got it for gaming. and so I don’t know if its only me or other notice this too when gaming. 1- so basically the first problem is that is dark. I played with the setting a bit but still a little dark. I don’t know if it normal on led tvs to be this dark cause my previous tv was not oled and 4k and have had it for around 6 years before got this a80j . Im not really a tv expert🤷‍♂️. 2- and second problem: the blurriness!!!! Its either Im not using the right setting for gaming that i get this blurriness or its just like that!! like if you look closely you can see the blurriness specially around the alphabets and words. Ive heard so much good reviews about this tv but the blurriness is absolutely crazy. Specially in fortnite. Buildings look awful. BUT GOTTA MENTION: that i tried both modes in external input settings (vrr mode and enhanced 4k mode) and both kinda had the same issue. Im really disappointed and don’t know to return this tv or no. I feel like im doing something wrong in either ps5 setting that causes this crazy blurriness or in the tv setting. ANY HINT OR ADVICE IS APPRECIATED

[@JoelsterG4k]

Hi Erfan, welcome to the channel, thank you for subscribing 😊, I didn't have those issues when I had this tv, I compared it with the C1 and the performed very similar, Oleds do tend to get dimmer compared to LED TVs. On the blurrynes, I would remove sharpness at all, it introduces particles, but other than that games and movies look amazing, I think I shared my settings in this video.

[@AP-hn8wd]

Granted it’s almost a year after you bought your A80J, Best Buy is now selling the A90J for $999 which I picked up. It’s my first OLED and Sony Master Series TV. I’ve never seen the A80J to compare as they are already of store floors. I can tell you that the A90J is plenty bright because I also have an X90J as well. It’s just as bright. Not sure if or when you’ll change but from at least 2022 models or newer, by the time you get a new OLED it should be plenty bright enough. Hope you are still enjoying your OLED OP.

[@bdsbhatia]
