The 75-inch Sony Bravia 9 is down to $2,498 from its usual $3,499.99 price—its lowest price so far, according to price trackers. This is Sony’s 2024 flagship Mini-LED QLED TV, built for those who want a bright, high-end picture without springing for an OLED. Amazon is also including free delivery to the room of your choice, which is useful for a TV this large. (Though note that delivery service does not include unpacking, assembly, packaging removal, or haul-away.)
OLED TVs still have the edge in perfect black levels and wider viewing angles, but the Bravia 9 gets much brighter than most OLEDs, making it a strong fit for living rooms with a lot of daylight. Its Mini-LED backlight and local dimming system help keep dark scenes looking deep without adding much bloom around bright objects like subtitles, according to this PCMag review. It also uses Sony’s image processing well, so lower-quality sources like cable TV, DVDs, and compressed streams can look cleaner than they would on a cheaper large screen. That said, direct reflections and off-angle viewing are its main limitations, so it works best when most you're watching from a central couch rather than from seats spread around the room.
The Bravia 9 also has the everyday conveniences you would expect from a high-end TV. Google TV is built in (with the usual streaming apps), plus Google Cast, Apple AirPlay, and hands-free Google Assistant, so it should fit easily into most homes without needing a separate streaming device. The 70-watt speaker system is also stronger than what you get from many thin TVs, and it can work as a center channel with compatible Sony soundbars and receivers.
