• 1.The Sony Bravia 55A80K TV supports Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos
• 2.Apple AirPlay and Chromecast are supported on the Sony TV
• 3.The OLED display on the Sony 55A80K delivers excellent black levels

Only a handful of brands sell OLED televisions in India, with Xiaomi, LG, and Sony.Widely considered among the best TV display technologies for mainstream televisions, OLED is usually seen on premium, big-screen televisions, often priced at over Rs. 2,00,000 for the popular 55-inch size. The latest television I'm reviewing is not quite from Sony's flagship lineup for OLED TVs, but is firmly positioned as a premium option as part of the Japanese company's XR series.Priced at Rs. 2,49,900 officially (but can be bought from official retailers for around Rs 18,5000), the Sony Bravia XR is the smallest and least expensive in the company's 2022 OLED lineup in India. With an Ultra-HD HDR display with support for Dolby Vision HDR, Google TV UI on top of Android TV, and Sony's Cognitive Processor XR powering it, is this the best TV under Rs. 2,00,000 you can buy right now? Find out in this review.

Sony Bravia XR-55A80K Ultra-HD OLED Android TV design and specifications

The Sony XR-A80K series is available in three sizes in India — 55 inches (on review here) priced at Rs. 2,49,900, 65 inches priced at Rs. 3,49,900, and 77 inches priced at 6,99,900. The 77-inch variant has a rated sound output of 60W as compared to 50W on the 55-inch and 65-inch options, which is the only difference in the variants apart from the screen size.The 55-inch A80K TV weighs about 18kg, and comes with the table stands in the box. The stands can be fitted at the corners of the TV, so you'll need a large table or entertainment unit to place it on. 

Sony Bravia XR-55A80K Ultra-HD OLED Android TV remote and features

The Sony Bravia XR-55A80K, like the X90K, has Sony's newer and somewhat minimalistic remote. This isn't to say that it's barebones; there are plenty of buttons and controls on it, including a D-pad and Android TV navigation keys, source and settings buttons, playback controls, a Google Assistant button, and volume controls. There are also hotkeys for Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, YouTube, and YouTube Music.
