Reviewer score 39% (normalized by Neofiliac)The Sony X80J is okay for mixed usage. It performs decently in bright rooms, and its wide viewing angles are great for wider seating arrangements. Its low contrast ratio makes it less suited to watching movies or gaming in the dark. Gamers may be disappointed by its lack of advanced gaming features, but its low input lag and fast response time should be fine for casual gaming.
Pros
- Decently bright
- Wide viewing angles
- Great response time
Cons
- Low contrast ratio
- Doesn't get bright enough to deliver HDR highlights
- No local dimming or VRR support
