I thought A95L contrast looks better in many scenes. B9 is definitely brighter. Although the B9 black level is astonishing for a mini led, QD-oled is still unbeatable. On the A95L, the details in the night sky at 6:40 looks better than the B9. The stars are more striking.

They are both stunning displays! Pick the one that works for your budget and your viewing area. You cannot go wrong with either.

I am willing to forgo perfect black letter boxes and crushed blacks in exchange for brighter brights! It’s a personal preference. I chose impactful HDR over perfect OLED contrast! Always have and always will! Shadow details are lost in OLEDS.

I received my 85 inch bravia 9 on Monday and I have to say that I love the picture quality.
I can't compare it with an a95L (because I have not seen that one), but I upgraded from LG Oled. (Not MLA)

I am really happy with the shadow details and also with the specular highlights. You can see an eye blinding sun in the left corner and see shadow dark detail on the right.

I paid 3900 euro's after cashback and I think this is a great option for a lot of people.

I saw these two at Best Buy and I really wished I could’ve played around with the settings. Can’t wait to see the comparison! Specially around the colors

They look pretty much identical most of the time but the Bravia 9 is a little brighter. If the brightness was brought down a little on the Bravia 9 I believe they would look identical all the time. Sony did an amazing job on the Bravia 9!!

Believe it or not…But I’m upgrading from a Sony 46 XBR 6 to the Bravia 9 75 from BestBuy coming on 7/9 my XBR 6 just won’t die but I just couldn’t wait any longer to get a new tv.

I have seen side by side the B9 A95L and Bravia 8. It comes down to taste. Bravia 9 can't match the contrast of an OLED or QD OLED. Is brighter though. The Bravia 8 is the one that I'm very impressed. I think is the underdog TV of 2024. No one is talking about it or at least as much as the B9 and G4. Very impressed with the Bravia 8 personally. Also the Bravia 9 at 85 inches needs to be 8K. You're loosing some of the resolution. Great video Brian! Enjoy your vacation!

7 months ago you did a video titled "SONY A95L VS SONY X95L QD-OLED VS MINILED KINGS!". Most of the comments were in favor of the X95L 85" over the A95L 77". It would be nice to see the B9 85" next to the X95L 85" and your analysis. Thank you for your wonderful content. Much appreciated.

[MattCarlton-cdbc]

They’re so close in most scenes. Trade blows. I love the small specular highlights of the A95L and the shadow detail of the B9. Ultimately I will probably go with the 85” over the 77” for the immersion. Thank you Brian for the excellent video!

[carlm]

Wow I can't believe how close the Bravia 9 has come to an oled, even at 65in! Can't wait to see the 85in comparison, do you have any plans to put the Bravia 9 85 and the G4 83 side by side? I am torn between the two, here in the UK the G4 is £1k more and am wondering if its worth it?

[mcmalden]

Shout out to Sony for pushing LCD technology to its limits in terms of accurate image reproduction. I would probably go for an oled to eventually replace my xh95 considering viewing angles, but it's always good to have options.

Thank you Brian your amazing. The Bravia 9 has more realistic color hues I saw/ The water scene on the beach was correct and the 95L water too blue and not aquamarine. They both looked so close on so many scenes I had to pause the video to make sure. The shadowed areas of everything had better detail in the Bravia 9

[adamsteinbacher]

Both look gorgeous, and if price was no object I'd still pick the A95L. For now, I'm really happy with my A80L, and I have you to thank for that Brian. It was your review of yours that pushed me to buy it. Much appreciated my friend!

[michaelfoster]

I agree the A95L , that contrast looks significantly better , self emissive all day for me .

[AntMilt]

The shadow detail in the fish scene at the 13:14 minute mark is amazing on the B9. Something I truly miss on LEDs.

Recently viewed the 85" Bravia 9 at a local Best Buy and right next to it was the Bravia 8 & A95L...In "my opinion " the B9 outshone both of them in every conceiveble aspect though it wasn't by leaps and bounds.. The improved brightness in HDR specular highlights along with oled- like blacks and spectacular color saturation AND great details in the dark shadowy scenes puts the B9 ahead of the rest of the field...We are not gamers, 98% 4k movie lovers 💞 in a controlled dark lower level... 👏🏽💥

[zackw]

It's very interesting how most of the shots can appear identical, or at least very close, while a few show a very different white balance. For the most part, the A95L looks like it has richer color, but the Bravia 9 handles bright and dark detail better. And of course, they are both excellent, so I don't think you could go wrong with either one.

Folks;

Keep in mind you're watching a YouTube video comparing two panels side by side.. that was recorded. HUGE difference if you go in person to a BestBuy and look at them side by side. Huge huge huge difference

[hunterross]

I’d be curious to see how these two stack up when displaying sports in SDR.
