ABOVE AND BEYOND THE BEST TV? A95L REVIEW

[@tileslasher]

My 77 inch A95L showed up Saturday. It is truly a blessing to have something so awesome to have 🙏🙏 I’ve had every Oled since 2015 from the EC9300 to the C8 to the CX to the A80j 77 inch. I’ve hooked this up with a Sony receiver and my HT-9000 wireless. My eyes and ears have been receiving the best tv image I’ve seen so far from the Oled. Seriously 💪💪🙏

Watching this review on my 55 A80K with my HTA 3000 lol.. which still looks pretty good in its own right. But man the 95 is something else lol.. OLED is like a tv drug, once you have one you only want a bigger or better OLED, or a combination of both lol. People with LEDs don’t have this great problem lol. First world issues haha.

The A95L has been worth waiting for!! The clearness, sharpness, sound, colors and detailed picture is AMA-A-A-AZING. WOW!! Biff, Bam, Pow Batman. This TV is great at EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!!!!

[@johnnycashlesscomedy8616]

I was one of the judges of the shoot out. The Sony was really special. It was noticeably sharper. It seemed to do everything right. It handled gradient images, skies, transitions better and with no banding compared to any other tv by a wide margin. I'm planning on getting a 55" A95L for my Davinci Resolve editing/color grading suite, and will have it calibrated. I only sit 5 feet from the monitor so a 55" is the right size for my room, but for sitting further back I'd want as big as possible. The Shoot out set up 2 $30,000 Sony 310 pro monitors to see which consumer tv came as close as possible. After seeing the pro monitor and the consumer monitor side by side, I'd feel confident using the A95L in professional environment.

SADLY, last night, I suddenly saw on my homescreen, that 90% of my APP thumbnail-images were gone! Replacing them were just one-colored backgrounds with white text over it.. PLEASE tell me there’s a way to get the images back on the apps??? Do I actually need to completely factory-reset the TV now, thus starting all over with everything I’ve set up? I’ve already tried shutting off the main power, plus restarting my router and made sure the software was fully updated on the TV as well..

[@dwightbaldwin5500]

Great review, Brian. Two questions: 1. FOMO mentioned lag in using the native apps. Did you see that issue too? 2. Any difference in watching streaming content directly from TV vs watching is from something like a fire stick or Apple TV?

[@PSYCHOV3N0M]

A dedicated streaming device will always have better performance than a TV because TV's come with a garbage amount of RAM which affects the smoothness of loading apps and navigating the menus since the RAM has to handle other background tasks too. Built-in apps never get long-term priority updates vs dedicated streaming devices like Apple TV, Fire Stick, Roku Stick, Chromecast with Google TV, etc.

[@dwightbaldwin5500]

@@PSYCHOV3N0M But wouldn’t the performance on detail suffer because a connected device, like Apple TV, is only 60hz and the TV is 120hz

[@stopthefomo]

Lag because I had 3 apps running (Netflix, KZbin TV, Disney+, KZbin, etc.) but if you have only 1 or 2 running it's not as laggy - this is definitely an inconvenience as most people do not know to clear the memory of unused apps.

Great video Brian! As tempting as it is, my space can accomodate a larger size so I will likely go with 83" A80L or 85" X95L. As much as I am keen on oled, Ive read that 83 inch oled panels have alot of QC issues. As someone who doesnt have the time to go through multiple returns, would you recommend I go with the X95L?

[@denissssss8579]

A80l 83“. It’s a secret gem, it is glossy and got a heatsink. Also supports Center speaker mode. Actually I’m in the same boat like u and decided to go with 83“ a80l over the 85“ x95l.

[@Dave-wr6op]

Hi Brian! Surely you won't remember, but I wrote to you some time ago in the comments asking you about the G3 given that the 65" would arrive in a few days. Today I find myself a week after the arrival of its predecessor 😁 I went from the G3 to the a95l again from 65". What do you think about whether I made a choice that justifies the purchase? The difference is noticeable between the two, in addition to the obvious difference in the type of panel... thanks🙏

[@marcusmorris3679]

I need your help. I'm between 77 A95L vs 83 A80L. Will the picture quality off set the extra 6 in you get in A80L? Which TV is better? The A80L has the heat sink. Does that make the Tv's equal?

[@BRIANSTECHTHERAPY]

It really all depends on the size you need. I love the A95L but I already own an 83" . As good as the A95L is I could never go back down to 77". My point is if 77" is big enough for you the a95L cannot be beaten however it can't get larger. If you want and need 83" then the A80L is amazing.

Outstanding review Brian! You have shown your eager audience the dominance the A95L has over all it's very capable contenders. Sure, the G3 and S95 B and C are absolute monster TV's that deserve very high praise. In fact, Many here will choose one of those tv's (if for no other reason), price alone. Let's face it here, the Sony costs around $1300 - $1700 more for just a little better all-around viewing experience. Is it worth the extra cash? I say yes! It's always worth the extra cash. But I must blame my late father (God rest his Soul), for this fortunate or (unfortunate) curse put upon me!

The 77” G3 is $4257.20 as I type this, & the 77” Sony A95L here is $4998, so it’s only $700 more (not sure how you came up with $1300-1700 difference 🤷‍♂️🤔), unless you’re talking about another model (?).

I'm happy with my very good oled of the year for 2022, which is the 77 inch C2. It's really bright too. I guess I lucked up on the lottery panel.

[@Technology.2069]

Thanks for video…amazing

[@michaelwyckoff7593]

Beautiful TV😊

[@leesimmons9091]

I have the SONY A90J IS THIS TV WORTH THE UPGRADE, IM NOT A GAMER

[@riley6723]

So…..would you wait for next year to see if Samsung or Lg put out something better/equal to the A95L? Or buy the A95L now with the higher price tag?

[@BRIANSTECHTHERAPY]

I wouldn't. As there are no larger sizes planned such as an 83". This is as good as it gets. I can't see a big jump next year. Thank you for watching

[@stradovinski]

But what if next year Sony announces XR Clear Image Turbo? Are you going to wait again? Then after that they add OxiClean Color Boost. And I dont even want to think about the possibilities if they team up with the Flex Seal guy. You might end up waiting forever 😫

[@lorddoma6637]

Every year there is a better tv. If you keep waiting forever for a better tv you will never own one

[@elibuehner3658]

Small improvements in 3rd gen, mostly only in Brightness, but I'd rather get the A95L and MicroLED in 5 years. That way you actually get an Tech upgrade, not just 200 more Nits.

[@WZ5887]

Hey Brian, thanks so much for this review! I just bought the 65 inch model and found out the stand was so wide that I would have to wall mount this TV. Anyways it should be here Friday and it’s going to mostly be for 4k movies and ps5/ XSX!!

[@BRIANSTECHTHERAPY]

There is two separate positions my friend. One is more narrow and turns inward

[@Tomek1Oko]

All I can say I’m hyped 😁 time to tell my wife and upgrade my C9 …

[@NathanielGarro]

Good Morning, yeah Brian`s on start :) very cool Video and the A95l winning the crown of the oled tvs. do you know brian a very good Game is last of us part 1 that so amazing graphic and with the a95l in 77 inch so stunning and Part 2 and a remaster from the Part 2 from last of us is in Work for Ps5. Whats your tipps with this television in 77 inch in combination homecinema sound system have you favorite or what is good for beginner when i started with 4k with the flagship i mean which sound publisher is your favorite ??

[@antonymaw6927]

Got my 65” A95L coming Monday. I am so excited!

[@BRIANSTECHTHERAPY]

Awesome!! Congratulations on your purchase! You are going to love it!

[@antonymaw6927]

Yeah. I loved the A95K. But got serious FOMO when they mentioned the Dolby vision gaming and extra brightness. I’m just hoping they won’t realise another until 2025 now, so I can keep this one for a while.

[@BRIANSTECHTHERAPY]

@antonymaw6927 it's incredible and a good deal better than the excellent a95K

[@antonymaw6927]

@@BRIANSTECHTHERAPY ah fantastic. I know Dolby vision gaming isn’t such a big thing at the moment, but with the A95K already being bright enough for me, I think the A95L will definitely be the one I keep for a few years.

[@BarrySmith-n6m]

Any chance you could do a A95L v X95L? Whats your opinion on this comparison or is the A95L just levels above everywhere? thanks

[@BRIANSTECHTHERAPY]

I'll definitely compare them when the 77" arrives.

[@Dasbeerboots]

Will they be releasing an 83" version? I have a C1 77" right now and was planning to upgrade to an 83", but wanted to go Sony this time. I don't think I'd go with the same size.

[@BRIANSTECHTHERAPY]

Unfortunately, there is no plan on an 83" QD-OLED or MLA. The only 83" which would be an upgrade would be the Sony A80L at 83", but even then, it's not a big jump over your C1.

[@Dasbeerboots]

@@BRIANSTECHTHERAPY That's a bummer. I would likely just keep the 77C1 or go with an 83G3 or G4. I just don't really like LG's WebOS and think I would greatly prefer Sony's Google OS.

[@BRIANSTECHTHERAPY]

@Dasbeerboots I hear ya! I have an 83" c1 so my only choice is an 85" mini led

[@SlotHits777]

how well does it do on upscaling 480p dvd’s .. some beloved content still only on dvd, no online or higher res media available .. so, I also look for how well 480p looks too

[@BRIANSTECHTHERAPY]

It's the very best in the business in regards to upscaling my friend

[@arthurziborov3023]

I found on my A95L that Advanced Contrast Enhancer causes brightness shifts in some scenes. Like the Enhancer lags behind a few frames when the scene changes, so as a result, when the scene changes, it's a bit dimmer for the first few frames and then it pops back up as the Enhancer catches up. A bit distracting :( Hopefully they can fix it with future updates, because I really like the pop that brings.

[@BRIANSTECHTHERAPY]

I'll definitely ask Sony about it! Thank you for letting me know. Thank you for watching

[@arthurziborov3023]

@@BRIANSTECHTHERAPY Woah nice! I did contact their support through the chat, but as you imagine, they are probably outsourced, so I don't know if the info will get to the right hands 😂 Would be cool if someone with "direct" access to Sony like you could as them! P.S. Bought the A95L right the next day after FOMOs pre-show where I asked about blue PHOLED, the TV is AWESOME!

[@Bushwacked487]

@@BRIANSTECHTHERAPYhey Brian did you ever get an answer on this?

[@TomPeters2k]

I noticed that my new A95L washes out details in bright areas in some demos by Jennifer Gala (her "Dolby Vision IQ 120hz "True Blacks" Demo", around 4:26 mark, for instance). The details in bubbles in the upper left corner are simply lost - everything past a certain point is just white! My old LED Bravia from 2018 is much worse in every aspect except here where it seems to outperforms the king of TVs, Sony A95L Master series! I tried all the different settings, but nothing helped. Does anyone have any ideas about this apparent issue?

[@yacineakrour3306]

does it beat the samsung s95c Colors ??

[@BRIANSTECHTHERAPY]

They most likely have very similar color coverage as they are both Made by Samsung Display, so it's a wash . It does beat it in both clarity and detail. Thank you for watching

[@RandyBertrand]

Waiting for a sale on the 65" A95K. Not sure I would noticed the improvements on the A95L. Am I wrong ?

[@TLEE1977]

I have this set and we got the gamebar update several weeks back. It looks like the "L" is much brighter and that's about it. I had been needing a TV since 2019 and I just couldn't hold out past the A95K. Sony is still offering 2 HDMI 2.1 ports going into 2024 and that's crazy to me.

[@BRIANSTECHTHERAPY]

It all depends on what TV you are coming from Randy. The A95K is one of the best TV'S in the world. That said there is a difference between the A95K and A95L . The A95L is expensive though.

[@RandyBertrand]

@@BRIANSTECHTHERAPY @TLEE1977 Thanks for the advice. I know my question was loaded. What people value varies greatly. I have friends who are big wine enthusiasts. They care about the subtle notes in the wine and will pay big to get what they desire. If I can detect these 'notes', I often don't care if they are there or not. I'm basically a cheap date :) For the TV experience, I'm upgrading from a 2015 Samsung 50" 1080p TV. I decided on a SONY QD OLED but I'm sure the SONY A80L would easily blow my socks off as well. I like the SONY to use as a center speaker as part of my 5.2.1 speaker setup. The extra brightness of the A95L vs A95K may not be a big deal to me when watching a movie in a dark room. I wish I could compare, but there is no store that will display the A95K and the A95L together.

[@RandyBertrand]

@@TLEE1977 The increased brightness of the A95L may be worth it for the increased dynamic color luminance range for movies with lots of HDR content. But would I notice it watching a movie at night? I'm sure I'd notice the difference with the A95K and A95L side by side. But would the A95L have a much bigger WOW factor when you don't see a side-by-side comparison that justifies the higher price? The A95L also has an improved upscaling processor but that improvement is marginal compared to the brightness improvement. I asked Bard 'If I would notice the increased brightness with the A95L when watching a movie at night?' and the AI chatbot's response was: "If you're watching a movie with a lot of HDR content, such as a nature documentary or a sci-fi film, you're more likely to notice the increased brightness of the A95L. This is because HDR content is designed to take advantage of the TV's wider brightness range, resulting in more realistic and immersive images." I guess on am still on the fence on this. I think I have to make a visit to the local Best Buy when they get an A95L setup.

[@FFROM5726]

What about vs the QN900c?
