Sony has revealed the prices for its 4K and 8K Bravia TVs for 2022 and you will not be surprised to hear that avant-garde models will be first class. Most notably, the Quantum Dot OLED-based Bravia XR Master A95K series (pictured above) will start at $ 3,000 for a 55-inch model and go up to $ 4,000 for a 65-inch kit. Both 4K screens will be available for pre-order in June. They are certainly not the most expensive TVs you can buy, but you obviously pay extra for the larger QD-OLED color gamut, flexible stand adjustment and included video chat camera.
Most of the other TVs are definitely more affordable. If you prefer mini-LED over OLED, the X95K series will start at $ 2,800 for a 65-inch 4K panel and go up to $ 5,500 for the 85-inch version. They will be available for pre-order this summer. You also have conventional OLED options at a lower cost. The compact, gaming-friendly A90K (pre-ordered in July) will cost $ 1,400 for the 42-inch display and $ 1,500 for its 48-inch counterpart (June). Choose the larger A80K and you’ll pay between $ 2,000 and $ 3,800 for kits ranging from 55 to 77 inches, with most pre-orders starting this month. The “entry-level” LED-based X90K will cost $ 1,400 for the 55-inch model and will reach $ 3,300 for the 85-inch, with most pre-orders also starting in May.
And yes, 8K is still expensive at Sony. You will pay $ 7,000 for the 75-inch Z9K and $ 10,000 for the 85-inch equivalent. Both are mini-LED TVs and will include an A95K camera when pre-orders open in the summer.
There is no doubt that Sony’s OLED kits will look expensive compared to some LG and Samsung models. However, it is obvious that Sony relies on image quality and design touches will motivate you to spend more. We would add that this is one of the few high-end brands that base its range around Android TV and Google TV. If you don’t like webOS (LG) or Tizen (Samsung), this may be your best bet.
