Brian these interviews with Rob are awesome I always look forward to them and its always a joy to watch in its entirety!

This guy u interview has so much knowledge and is passionate about having great picture quality like us

Thank you so much Brian, our friend M.Rob is such cool and knowledgy enthusiast , your meeting every time is a treat

Getting my 77in delivered today actually 🤩 Thanks for all the coverage this year. Now I need to know ALL the best settings.

Great interview Brian! Love listening to Rob talk about TV technology and why Sony does the things it does. Good stuff! 👍

I loved this interview with Rob - Thanks Brian for sharing. I learned so much this one video and it was fun. 👍🏾👍🏾

You heard it here first, folks. Mrs. Butterworth makes cookies now.

Can’t wait to watch. Excellent work Brian. You are the best TV channel on KZfaq. That’s become clear.

Nice Interview. Been watching my A95L for about a week. Couldn't be happier.

Brian my 77" A95L is being delivered tomorrow by Super Calibrations.......

This was a fantastic video, Brian! Just getting my A95L settled in!

Let’s get those OLED screens pumped to 480 hz with BFI available at that refresh rate, so that we can finally be close to CRT motion clarity again

What a great video and awesome guest ! I love it Brian when you have Mr Brennan on ! So interesting !

I do wish we can get some questions answered on their HEATSINK and when and how there compensation cycles run.

Thanks for the content brother

Very insightful interview Brian .. thank you for sharing .

Thanks for interview.

Bought the a95l 77 and love it. I just need them to make it in 8k now!

Love the A95L, but honestly I would never upgrade to it if you already have the A95K, unless you need the bigger size. It’s only slightly better than the A95K, side by side, same settings, A95L is a little brighter, and exhibits a little more definition, not major amounts like a lot of people are pretending…

I appreciate Robert's explanation that Sony doesn't completely eliminate blooming from their LCD displays in order to preserve shadow detail. I think of the slightly elevated black levels on good LCD panels the same way I think of the soft hiss on good analog audio recordings. One issue I have with OLED technology is the automatic brightness limiting which greatly reduces brightness at full screen. For me, when abrupt change is part of the plot of the movie or episode, this can decrease the dynamic range, and therefore decrease the impact. While turning off maximum brightness eliminates this, the display becomes so dim that I wouldn't even be able to get that impact at smaller image sizes. I know LCD backlighting still has this issue, but it's not nearly as aggressive as with OLED technology. Also, even if I circumvent ABL by either maxing out local dimming and turning down the backlight or turning off local dimming and maxing out the backlight, the full-screen brightness is much brighter than with OLED technology, preserving that dynamic range and impact. Based on Rting's measurements in many areas of performance, I am choosing the X90L full array local dimming display for my first 4K UHD display being that it beats the X93L and X95L in so many areas of performance which are of importance to me. I'll either leave local dimming on and turn down the backlight, or turn local dimming off, max out the backlight, and live with elevated black levels if shadow detail is lost with maximum local dimming and a lower backlight.

I would like to hear this guy talk about the X93L

So glad to see Rob back, even though he's a Sony guy he's always very humble and balanced. Also glad to hear him actually recommend using the light sensor! I have always been a an advocate for that, since it only applies to SDR content. Personally I'm ok with Sony TV's costing more, cause I know they're putting more time and money into building a long-term higher quality product than their competitors. You know Sony is getting first dibs on LCD and OLED panels from AUO, CSOT, LG Display, Samsung Display ect.. cause they're more willing to fork over the $ for them. Sony still makes as much of the internal and external components as they possibly can and it's shown in the final product quality. As much as I'm happy to see how far Hisense and TCL have come, they are still miles away on picture processing abilities, out of the box accuracy and overall product polish.

I love this guest and I like the way yawl just take it slow and easy and don’t cut each other off.

If they’re really interested in using the screen size adjustment in useful ways for gaming purposes, it would be awesome if they’d allow some way to control the amount of scaling for different input resolutions from 240p to 1080p in order to land on perfect integer scales even if it doesn’t fill the whole screen

Finally got around to watching this in full. Sounds like I need to find a way to Texas to visit Rob and his garage. If he has a 65” A95K or 75” Z9K just collecting dust. 🤣🤣🤣

Congratulations again Brian for another great interview with Rob. When you have a chance ask him what he thinks about the burn in test by ratings, a95k got burn in and the a80k has a mother board damage.

Love these interviews

Hey Brian, i wanted to ask you what device/splitter you guys use when comparing TVs, how do you split the signal from one source to two or more TVs? Im searching for a splitter that can provide 4K signal with HDR 10 and Dolby Vision to multiple TVs. Thanks!

This was a great interview. Do you know if what Rob said about leaving the light sensor on when watching in standard picture mode applies to just new Sony TV's? I have a 75 inch X900H and I wanted to know if turning on light sensor would benefit that model in standard picture mode.

Will rob address longevity we can expect from this particular tv model, like yrs of use for movie watching only?

Rob is a fantastic spokesman for SONY. He obviously has plenty of "engineering nerd" in him based on his job description but he is perfect for the "lay" person to understand where SONY is coming from and how their R&D, manufacturing, marketing and strategies fall into place for their products. Also he is straight forward with no BS. Please have him on more often and include his name in the title of your videos so its easy to find him Thnaks

To watch movies at a80k which format is better custom or cinema. I use custom with graduation prefered.

I will take a peek my brotha Bri😊.

Thanks Brian !❤❤❤

Brian have you compared your 83 c1 to the 83 g2. If so whats your thoughts.

Hi Brian, do you have any info on the Dolby Vision problem that’s been reported by some people?

Thanks for this stream! The 77” A95L is CRAZY phenomenal to look at. In regards to XR-CLEAR! Last night I put on BACK TO THE FUTURE on 4K-Disc (35th anniversary edition) That old movie felt like an entirely new experience on the A95L, though I’ve already seen it like 70 times, lol! The XR-CLEAR truly “cleaned it up”, without messing with detail. It looked insane! 🙏❤️

1:06:52 he did make a quite exciting face when he talked about not being allowed to share informations about future products 😁😁😁😁 I think this means something 😁🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Hello Brian Can you tell me how can i solve Dolby Vision problem on A95l? Thank you

What about the horizontal panning issue? Motion artefacts etc?

Not sure if it's a sony problem but what about fixing how some of the streaming apps run on the Sony A95L and Im sure other Sony tvs? For example, disney plus and Paramount are not outputting dolby atmos on this tv. Hulu is not outputting 4k quality. Netflix, Apple TV and MAX work perfect but what about the rest? So annoying. I shouldn't have to connect another streaming device to a flagship tv to receive 4K quality and sound when the apps are built in. When I connect my Google 4k streaming device, Hulu puts out 4k and disney plus puts out atmos, but it doesn't do any of this for netflix, or paramount etc. Frustrating. Again shouldn't have to buy a streaming device when apps work with tv. Any way you can ask for any info about this or if updates are coming so all streaming apps work correctly? Thanks!

Rob can you please review the combination of using Sony products such as A95L STR AN?000ES receiver line, and Play Station PS5 slim or PS5 pro. Oh bye the way all released in 2023. Oh and when will the A95L will be available in Japan?

I would like to find out if they extended "Clear Image" to the last firmware update for the A80J. I noticed a nice tick up in clarity. Am I right or wrong?

Hi bro i love your videos I am planning to buy 85inch tv and confused b/w these two SONY X95L MINI LED or SAMSUNG QN90C the prices in india where i live are $4880 USD for Sony and $5450 USD for Samsung out of these two which tv should i go for?

Some of the issues on forum seem to be saying the A95L has some banding issues and some owners say small screen scratches have been seen however not during content.

Top video save my money four this great tv sony a95l

Hi Brian, Coming from 75" Samsung Q8FN, is it worth it to spend $4000s to upgrade to Sony X95L?

Great interview. Mr. Pete------------> aging hippie

Great job Brian. I'm going to wait for the next Z9 since Sony has no plans for an 85 inch OLED.

Good stuff, great vid as always Ty Ty.

Xr. Clear really is what makes me want to pay the sony premium. I still remember seeing it at my friend's place.

Hi Brian, I think Sony could do better in the game department, few key questions : Can the 2.1 hdmi arc port be move to an 2.0 port via firmware update, this will give us 1 more 2.1 hdmi port for gaming rather than 1 ? Is the 144hz refresh rate possible via firmware update ? The chips in the Sony is definitely capable looking at the description. Could we get input lag boost for fps for competitive gaming like the LG, 16ms is not great. When can we expect dolby vision gaming and the ability to reduce the screen size as advertised? In the UK we don't get free view or bbc app, when is that coming? The tv is amazing just missing the gaming feature.

where are the Sony A95L Master series Tv made ? Is it Japan or China?

I just wanna know are they gonna budge on pricing for the 65 inch

After 7 years with a Sony XBR-65Z9D, it looks like it's about time to upgrade...to the A95L!

Very cool , Sony powers lol , thank you Brian

does the A95L have vertical banding and near black banding issues like I’m hearing about?

The Sony A95L is wifi 6 but is the ethernet port multi gig/Gigabit or still capped @100mb ¿?

Best review of 95L by faaaar faaar away ~ ShreK 😅

Hey Brian. Since he said the next upgrade “probably” won’t be til next Oct roughly, do you think the A95L will drop in the next 3-6 months, or will they stay in that $5000 price range for a bit longer?

24:30 game mode presets discussion

94 minutes?! 👀😳. Hope he addresses the stupid high price (!!). lol. $5000??!! (As I plot to start saving my money…) 🤨🤔🙄🤦‍♂️🤷‍♂️😂🤣

Fine, but why not have the earc on a 4k60 port instead?

I purchased mine from Best Buy at the end of September. 2004-2012 Poineer Plasma, 2012-2023 Panasonic Plasma, 2023-? Sony QD-OLED. I know what I'm talking about when I say the Sony A95L is the best TV today like my previous two were in their day. Thanks!

@Brian are we going to see a 65 inches X95M next year?

I see the value of the Sony brand as I currently own an A80J, X900F, HT-Z9F, and a 5.1 surround system with Sony AVR and speakers. But I can’t justify spending the 30% higher cost for the A95L for an out of box performance that per the shoot out scores is 4.6% better than its competitor. $1100 more at the 65” size than the S95C is stopping me from pulling the trigger. Sorry Sony would love to upgrade but……

I was all set to get the Sony OLED television, but then I start reading about the burn in that Oleds have

What are your thoughts on 8k tvs. Some say theirs a huge difference then in 4k. Should you invest in a 8k tv ? I personally don't think so because theirs no content and 4k will always be the best at displaying native 4k.

a bit a mystery for me is how the A95L adjusts the color temperature (up to 9000k) depending on the image content. I thought it would be better if a TV followed the norm all the way through?!

Will there be a A95M or is the A95L carry on in 2024

Are they going to bring xr clear to the a95k?

Should do a qled king and an oled king, then do a shootout between the two technologies

He said I can put my A95L in PiP mode or split screen, but I don’t know how.

Why do Sony TV’s use Bluetooth version 4.2 and not 5.0 like all others?

Brian, ive been telling you to stop sleeping on the light sensor 😅

Guess I have to buy the A95L now. lol

@BRIANSTECHTHERAPY Brian, hope all is well. I have went through 2 A95L’s now both with marks under the screen to a horrendous extent. Should not have to accept that on a 5k TV. I am lost in where to go from here. Raised this to Sony in every way possible to no avail. Was wondering with Rob as a contact/friend, you can raise this to him? Surely I’m not the only one affected. Aside from having to exchange my panel with no guarantee I’ll get a good one, there is CLEARLY a manufacturing issue with these and Sony needs to address it. It’s unacceptable on a $5,000 TV. How does Sony deem it ok to ship TVs in this condition? Please let me know if you can help. Really Enjoy your content and appreciate everything you’re doing. I can provide pics, or whatever’s needed for reference.

🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Sounds like a little bit of an excuse regarding hdmi they could of added one more and still kept the picture quality. U watch next years having more

36:10 take my money yesterday if you can do this. I could never get music and game sound, unless I used the console, but I like to use my phone or pc, to keep my play counts, and have a dedicated controls. Oh, if you can mix two sources.... You wild weirdos, I can't believe you want to do something I want.

The qd oleds have a triangular pixel structure,so it will show some color distortion,especially on white text where you can see green color on top and purple color on bottom of the text.also the screen itself is not black,its more gray,so it will show a lighter black levels than their woled counterpart,this is due to the lack of a polarizer filter in the screen.

A 1080p video (??!!), not 4K 🤔😳🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️😁. I know it’s just an Interview but…

52:00 - There is NO Sony Tax! Dude compared X77L 65 inch ($649) to other manufacturers 65 inch TVs and had to to an $1100 TV before pictures were equal?

who is better 65 inch A95L or S95C ?

54:45 - Rob Dude said he would put A80L against FLAGSHIP OLEDs from other makers straight up and put his money where his mouth is. WOW. And btw how many Senior Mgt folks from ANY other brands have been interviewed on youtube videos by anybody? NONE.

Why is Sony's rep the only one being interviewed? Samsung released the S89c! LG has the B series! None of Sony's TVs have been truly overlooked. All of these panels deserve their time to shine or fall flat on their face. Just interviewing one brands representative makes your views seem bias no matter how much you beat the dead horse by saying you don't have any skin in the game. In fairness! Just interview other brands representatives to see their perspectives as well. Verily, I say unto you "You can never make everyone happy, but your actions speak louder than words."

I'll probably be working so wont see this till later.

Still the asbl issue

Just excuses Sony about the minimum cost of another 2 HDMI slots. Sony Never again.

Quantum says Sonys have become worse and they’re resting on the laurels of the glorious past. Specifically motion is jittery and worse than any other brand. Plus the whole only 2 2.1 hdmi ports of which one is eARC.

I got mine yesterday picture looks washed out my A95k was better picture I think that I have just got a bad panel

TELL SONY TO GET RID OF THE DAMN BRAVIA CAM NOBODY IS FALLING FOR DAT GIMMICK!!!!🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
