The Sony X85J is the new and improved version of 2020's Sony XH85
that was only released in Europe and a couple of other countries around the globe.
It is an upper mid-range 4K TV from Sony's 2021 TV lineup. As we all know, Sony is a
popular brand when it comes to tech. It has a long line of products, not just TVs, but also cameras,
mobile phones, laptops, headphones, video game consoles, and a lot more. From the brand itself,
you can expect that this TV is going to blow your expectations out of the water.
This TV is a smart TV and aside from that, Sony is well-known for its amazingly bright screens,
especially with their televisions that will really have your eyes glued to whatever it
is you're watching. With the Sony X85J, you will be mesmerized by its clear and smooth resolution.
With this TV, Sony takes pride in its advancement in terms of color.
Not only that, but it's also high up there in terms of multidimensional sound.
So not only is the visual aspect exceptional but so is the audio aspect! Fans of home theater or
those who want to recreate the theater experience at home will love this release from Sony.
As for its processor, it has a 4K HDR processor X1. Simply put, it is a super high-quality TV.
HDR means high dynamic range and it pertains to the lightest and
darkest tones in photos or videos, and that simply means with this TV,
it will be like you are actually part of whatever you're watching. One word for that: lifelike!
The details in this TV are sharp, no matter how fast the scene or sequence may be,
all thanks to the Motionflow XR. It is an innovative form of technology that avoids
blurs and gives your viewing that breathtaking cinematic vibe. This feature is perfect if
you’re a fan of sports or action movies, anything that has lightning-speed scenes!
When it comes to audio, we all know how important that is to the viewing experience.
It has an X-Balanced Speaker that will exceed your expectations.
And like with most TVs nowadays, it is a smart TV. This one comes with voice search,
meaning you can look for whatever content it is you want to view just by speaking to it. The Sony
X85J even has a Google Assistant and will respond when you say, "Hey, Google!" As it is a Google TV,
you can easily access all the streaming apps you use on this TV. Be it Netflix,
Amazon Prime Video, Disney+, Paramount+, YouTube, Peacock, HBO Max, and so much more. Again,
you only have to call on Google to do the heavy lifting and you can just sit back and relax.
If you're an Apple fanatic, you will love this TV because it works with Apple AirPlay
and Apple HomeKit. This means, that you can watch movies or shows from your Apple TV application.
Other than that, you can also connect this television to a camera. A few
of the compatible cameras with this TV are Sony cameras and Logitech cameras, but either way,
if you want to video chat with friends and family who are far away from you and you really want to
feel their presence, then you can totally do that on the big screen with the SONY X85J 120Hz 4K TV.
It's also got a built-in Chromecast, so you can quite literally cast your content and continue
your browsing on whatever device you choose to use. You’re using your phone? All good. You’re
using a tablet? Fine as well. Additionally, it comes with a smart remote! No need to control this
or that on the device itself if it’s connected to the TV, you can just use the remote. Again,
it’s a smart remote, so it’s got all the functionalities you would expect it to have.
Now, what else could you possibly want from a TV? It has Dolby Vision, and Dolby Atmos that ensures
your viewing experiences will be top-notch. And it even has sound optimization and light sensors
which means that your TV will adjust to the light of the room and how it is structured
to make sure you get the most out of it when it comes to resolution and audio.
If advanced TVs are your thing,
this is definitely worth the price. It’s priced at about $1,700 at the time of this video,
I'll leave a link down below with the updated pricing for you to check out.
The cost is not too far from its competitors and yet the quality is up there.
Considering that this was released in 2021, this is a television that has got mind-blowing specs.
I'm sure you're wondering. What makes it different from all the TVs out there?
Well, first off, it's really advanced in a lot of ways. Remember the sound
optimization and the light sensors? That's not something you get on every television.
Plus, it is a good TV for a variety of uses. Be it watching movies or shows, video games, or even
as a PC monitor if you'd wish to use it as one. It has low input lag and a quick response time.
Also, as always with Sony, it has the power to level up the resolution of what you're watching.
If your watching something with naturally low resolution,
it can be improved by this TV – which of course, makes for a more enjoyable experience!
So, we’ve covered what it is, what it can do, and what makes it unique.
Now, let’s talk about its pros and cons. Just like with all tech, the SONY X85J
120Hz 4K TV has its good features and has some bad features that could be improved.
Let’s start with the cons!
#1: At some angles, the quality can degrade. It doesn't have a local dimming
feature and that can be very noticeable when you're watching movies on this TV.
There is a little bit of lag when some scenes have slow-type shots.
#2: In games, the 4K quality isn't picture-perfect like one would expect it to be.
Some details are blurred, and that can take away the fun out of playing video games.
#3: It can sometimes look way too bright.
As with Sony TVs, they are known for having vibrant colors that are very realistic,
but some scenes in shows, movies, and games tend to translate differently with the Sony X85J.
Moving on to the pros of this TV:
#1: We go back to what makes it unique. The light sensor and the sound optimization.
That alone is worth it for the price of $1700! Who
knew TVs could be that advanced? Imagine not having to adjust things manually, and it will
do what it needs to do on autopilot when it knows that the light and the sound have to be adjusted?
Well, with the SONY X85J 120Hz 4K TV, you don’t have to imagine it. That’s what you’ll be getting!
#2: If you’re an Apple user and most of the tech you own is made by Apple,
this is the perfect TV for you. It pairs well with Apple products,
again, as mentioned it supports AirPlay and Apple HomeKit.
#3: What is a con, can also be a pro.
The sharp details are something that some TV enthusiasts are looking for.
It features a TRILUMINOS PRO color, which gives it vivid colors that may be bothersome to others.
But if “too much brightness” isn’t something that would throw you off while watching your favorite
series, movie, or playing your newest video games, and if it’s something that you actually prefer,
then feel free to get your hands on this television because you won’t regret it!
We rate this TV a 9/10. If immersive entertainment with lots and lots of features is what you’re
looking for in a television, then I’d say that the SONY X85J 120Hz 4K TV is the right TV for you.
Its pros heavily outweigh the cons and it is worth its price compares to similar models out there.
