Sony XH8096 our buying advice (XH8077)

The Sony XH8096 is a good TV 2020. Like "all" current TVs includes SmartTV and 4K resolution. It is a not very cheap mid-range model, Sony is a brand a little more expensive than LG or Samsung. The panel is good, the Triluminos technology, but it is EdgeLED and with 50Hz refresh rate in 43 and 49 inches, the XH8505 model improves this data. The connections are good, the Smart works correctly and the Audio is 20W, as in almost all current LED TVs. The IPS panel improves the viewing angle but in contrast is somewhat worse than other panels, making it not the best TV for movies in the dark.

• The best: Max brightness, low inputlag, good angle
• The worst: poor contrast, price

Our opinion Sony XH8096(veredict):

Our opinion about the Sony XH8096 is not entirely good, it is a lower-middle-range television, although it is sufficient for most normal television users, its price is somewhat higher than other similar quality / performance models from other good brands like LG. If you are looking for a TV to watch TV it is fine, but if you want a maximum angle of view and brightness in this category it is fine, but we do not recommend it for dark rooms since blacks look gray. The LG mid-range is similar and somewhat cheaper, on the other hand if you prefer to improve in contrast but lose angle of view we recommend you look at the Samsung TU8 series.
