Great TV
The tv is intelligent and was easy to set up with our speakers, although the tv has great sound anyway. We are more than happy with the picture quality. It’s not an OLED but it’s great for our needs. Being a SONY BRAVIA we expect to get years of use and we were very pleased with the price as well. All together, a great purchase.

Excellent buy
We wanted a Sony of this size and shopped around. Good Guys gave us the best price plus delivery. It was easy to unpack, assemble and with instructions for a simple set up. More than happy with the picture quality etc. Just a little disappointed that we can’t record on it, but that is t a problem as it isn’t the main tv.

Nothing to fault!
I've always heard good things about Bravia TVs, particularly the longevity and the user-friendliness. I've been very happy with it two months in. Unsure if I would feel the same if I had paid full price instead of the discounted. The motion smoothing is turned on from factory setting, so I had to turn that off as I'm not a fan. The sound is not amazing, but probably one of the better built-in ones and the setting also give decent options. The user interface is useable and reactive. The apps are listed horizontally in one line, I would've preferred if it was a grid like on a phone. Some apps (assuming the ones licenced with Sony) have the 'continue watching' option on the Bravia main page so you don't have to go into the app itself.

At a glance
The Sony X90L 55-inch is a premium 4K smart TV that balances bright picture quality, strong motion performance and a polished Google TV experience.

Things to consider
Compared with OLED and higher-end Mini LED TVs, it has narrower best-viewing angles and can show some haloing around bright highlights in dark scenes.
Home theatre suitability
8.5/10 - Strong contrast, good HDR brightness and Sony’s image processing make it a very capable movie-night TV, though not as cinematic as OLED in dark rooms.
Family viewing friendliness
8/10 - Easy smart interface, strong motion handling and bright-screen performance suit mixed household use, but off-centre viewing is less ideal than some wider-angle premium sets.
Smart tv feature score
9/10 - Google TV offers broad app support, simple voice search and smooth everyday usability.
Gaming suitability
8.5/10 - A strong choice for PlayStation 5 and other modern consoles thanks to responsive gaming features, though serious enthusiasts may want more HDMI 2.1 flexibility on higher-end models.
Wall mount compatibility
Yes - suitable for wall mounting with a compatible VESA wall mount.
Key benefits
- Full Array LED Backlight: Delivers stronger brightness control and better contrast than basic edge-lit TVs, helping movies and sport look more punchy.
- Cognitive Processor XR: Improves upscaling and scene processing so broadcast TV and streaming content look cleaner and more natural.
- Google TV: Keeps streaming apps, recommendations and voice search in one familiar interface that is easy for the whole household to use.
- HDMI 2.1 Gaming Support: Better suited to current-generation consoles with smoother high-frame-rate gameplay and lower input lag.
- XR Motion Clarity: Keeps fast action clearer during sport and action movies, reducing blur in quick camera pans.
- Dolby Vision Support: Helps compatible movies and shows look more dynamic with improved highlight and shadow detail.
- Acoustic Multi-Audio: Places sound more accurately to the picture, making dialogue and on-screen action feel better aligned.
- Hands-Free Voice Control: Lets you search, launch apps and control the TV more conveniently without always reaching for the remote.
Q: Is the Sony 55 inch X90L a good TV for PS5 or Xbox Series X gaming?
A: Yes. The X90L is a strong match for current consoles because it supports 4K gaming at 120Hz and HDMI 2.1 features such as VRR and ALLM. It suits fast action well, but only some HDMI ports offer the full gaming feature set.
Q: How does the Sony X90L compare with an OLED TV for movie watching?
A: The X90L is generally brighter and better suited to mixed lighting, while OLED usually delivers deeper blacks in a dark room. This Sony uses Full Array LED dimming, so it balances contrast and brightness without OLED's premium price jump.
Q: Is the Sony X90L a good choice for a bright living room?
A: Yes. The X90L is better suited to brighter rooms than many basic LED TVs because its Full Array backlight and higher peak brightness help highlights stand out. Reflections can still be noticeable if windows sit directly opposite the screen.
Q: How old is the Sony 55 inch X90L range?
A: The X90L is part of Sony's 2023 TV line-up. That means it is newer than the X90K series, but not Sony's latest generation, so buyers should focus on its feature mix and picture performance rather than model year alone.
Q: Does the Sony 55 inch X90L have enough HDMI 2.1 connections for a console and a soundbar?
A: It can, but plan the ports carefully. On the X90L, two HDMI inputs support the higher-bandwidth 4K 120 gaming features, and one of those is also the eARC port often used for a soundbar, which can limit spare high-spec inputs.
Q: Why would someone choose the Sony X90L over a cheaper 4K LED TV?
A: Because the step up is mainly in picture processing, motion handling and backlight control. The X90L pairs Sony's XR processor with Full Array LED dimming, so sport, broadcast TV and HDR movies usually look more controlled than on entry models.
