The Sony BRAVIA 7 is impressive for mixed usage. The TV excels most in reference conditions due to its very good black levels, wide range of vibrant colors, and image processing. However, it also looks great with the lights on since it doesn't lose much image quality from ambient lighting and has the SDR brightness needed to overcome glare from indirect light sources. However, it's best to avoid placing the TV screen in front of direct light sources, since its direct reflection handling is inadequate. HDR content is impactful thanks to its excellent HDR brightness, which is great for movies, shows, and games. Speaking of games, the TV has the modern gaming features needed to take advantage of your Series X|S or PS5, although fast motion is blurry. The biggest downside of the TV is that it has a narrow viewing angle, so it's not a good option for a wide seating arrangement.
