Trusted Reviews

Kob Monney | July 2022
"For home cinema fans the Sony A80J puts in a talented HDR performance, while daytime TV viewers benefit from its impressive upscaling and motion processing. Whites are portrayed in a clean and bright manner and black levels are strong, making for a very satisfying and consistent HD upscale. The A80J’s motion processing is hugely impressive. The Sony A80J takes content at any resolution and makes it look great, its motion skills are class-leading and its HDR performance boasts plenty of detail, contrast and expressive colours."
