# Sony Bravia 8 II 65-Inch OLED TV Drops $700
Sony's 65-inch Bravia 8 II OLED television is currently discounted by $700, bringing the premium display to a lower price point than usual. This model delivers OLED technology, which produces deeper blacks and better contrast than standard LED screens by using individual pixels that emit their own light.
The Bravia 8 II includes built-in Google Assistant for voice commands without a separate remote. The TV supports Google Cast and Apple AirPlay, letting you stream content directly from your smartphone or tablet to the screen. These connectivity features mean you avoid purchasing additional streaming devices for basic functions.
A 65-inch screen works well for living rooms 8 to 12 feet from the viewing position. OLED panels typically last 10 to 15 years with normal use, though image retention remains a potential issue if you leave static images on screen for extended periods.
Sony positions the Bravia 8 II in the premium tier. The $700 discount reduces the barrier to entry for OLED technology, which historically costs more than LED alternatives. Budget-conscious buyers might still prefer entry-level 4K TVs from brands like TCL or Hisense, which cost under $400 for similar screen sizes but lack OLED's picture quality advantages.
Before buying, compare this price against competing OLED models from LG and Samsung at the same size. Check your room's lighting. OLED performs best in darker spaces where its contrast advantage shines. Brighter rooms may show better value in high-brightness LED models instead.
The discount appears time-limited. If you've budgeted for a quality TV upgrade and want OLED performance, this represents a legitimate opportunity to reduce costs on a durable device you'll use
