Bravia 9 (65-inch)
The Bravia 9 is Sony's mini-LED flagship and the brightest, most controlled LCD the company has ever shipped, using a dense backlight with far more dimming zones than typical to suppress the blooming that usually plagues the technology.
Read the product overview
Sony's processing remains the benchmark for upscaling, motion, and out-of-box accuracy, so it tends to make lower-quality streams and broadcast TV look better than rivals do. The trade-offs are price and ports: it costs more than the Samsung QN90D and ships with only two full HDMI 2.1 inputs, one shared with eARC, which is a real constraint if you want to connect two consoles and a PC. For movie-first buyers who value tuning over checkboxes, it is hard to beat.
