so this is the sony bravia a one-year and check out those black levels in the intro it's clearly an OLED TV yeah I love Sony sets I bought a 75 inch z9t for my house there's a ton of Technology but there's something unique about this set that makes it stand apart from anything else out there it's their acoustic surface technology essentially the entire screen is the speaker I know that sounds bizarre but there's actually actuators in the back of the screen that's gonna vibrate the glass and turn the entire 65 inch or 55 inch just heading what side you get into the speaker and it gets even crazier than that it'll actually follow the sound so if you're watching like an action movie and there's a shot fired on the left it'll sound like it's coming from the left and you look at that technology and you figure it's gonna sound not good kind of like we did but it sounds incredible to effect you might not need a sound bar even external surround sound the speakers on this thing are that good I just want to get that out of the way at the beginning because it is an incredible minute technology to actually see so some back story we've had the same four case set of techni Buffalo offices for about four to five years looking a little dingy pictures weren't looking so good we use it almost every day for video games for watching back videos and sort of watching TV and I wanted a to upgrade our set here and being a big Sony fan want to take a look and obviously the OLED set from Sony so Sony offer to send this one to take a look at so the reason that I bought a is e9d I'm really a big fan of their x1 Xtreme processor most of the TV that I watch is sports and if I'm playing video games it's usually FPS or sports video games it does an incredible job with things with fast motion you don't really think that much about the processor in your TV but it's important when you're doing a lot of things with huge amount of playback I also really liked it's powered by Android TV it makes it really easy to set up I always say for streaming it's gonna work really well but of course it's got inputs galore you can plug in whatever you want but I did like having Android TV as the brains of the set you also can get a couple other cool stuff we're gonna get Google assistant built-in for the remote wood you can just just talk and have it play some TechnoBuffalo videos from YouTube for example so a lot of old lets of taking kind of unique design approaches some are crazy thin some are gigantic so they took a bit of a minimalistic approach here the TV itself looks like it's floating it's because of the stand in the back so that's where all of your input and i/o is going to live and I had some concern about being able to wall mount the set because we're gonna wall mount two here in the office with that giant stand and that's where all the brains of the set are going to live and it folds down almost flat so you can sort of put the TV almost flush on the wall which was super important to me the other stuff you'd expect from a flagship oh let's set is there you've got 4k obviously you've got HDR support for both formats and the picture just looks incredible and that's why I spent my own money for a sony TV I just think the picture quality looks incredible I think looks better than anything else out there colours pop the black pebbles look incredible watching sports on this thing is like being at the stadium I can't overstate that enough the difference here is huge if you remember when you first started looking at HD content from standard def it was incredible you can see the grass on the field it's almost that big a jump here from regular HD to what you get with OLED that's absolutely incredible another reason the a1e is an incredible TV actually gets plenty bright so if you want to put it up in a bright room with a lot of windows picture is not going to be washed out a lot of oh let's have that problem that's another reason that I personally spent my money for a sony set they do an incredible job with brightness and that transferred over to their OLED sets had a chance take a look at this when it first launched actually at CES 2017 and the picture quality looked good it was her stock footage I want to see what it looked like actually just watching back stuff anything I did looked awesome from from YouTube videos to gaming to sports to anything you watch back looks good you can also stream obviously the forecast stuff because Android TV powered so last bit of tech that I really liked about the Sony sets there triluminos display it just makes the colors look really good I could get into the tech side of it but it just means the colors are gonna pop more even more so than on a comparable all that set by another maker if you're looking for a flagship OLED set you don't want to break the bank you want one in varying sizes it's actually available in 55 65 or 77 inches I really recommend looking at Sony this was out when I bought my z 9d I would have I would have gone for the a1 either picture quality is just insane an acoustic technology that turns the screen into a speaker's I'm you're a tech guy is really cool it something you have to hear to experience it so obviously being OLED in a flagship it's not the cheapest set out there but it's comparable with other flagship OLED sets will link to it down below in case you want to check out the pricing I'm kind of gushing about the set maybe it's my sony tv fanboy I buy a new TV every like eight years so I did a ton of research and I just fell in love the combination of technology and design from Sony they're obviously there are a lot of other good OLED sets out there but for my money i legit put it behind the Sony tech because I trusted it and I think you guys if you're looking for an OLED set you might want to consider the a1 EE as well so we're planning on doing a lot more TV reviews coming into the new year if you don't want to miss those hit the bell icon to get alerts or new videos come up what do guys think about oled sets in general i'm a huge fan of the black levels are you upgrading let us know in the comments down below until next time Jon render from TechnoBuffalo you
