Samsung S85D OLED
Sony BRAVIA 8 OLED
The Sony BRAVIA 8 OLED is a bit better than the Samsung S85D OLED. The Sony gets a bit brighter overall, so highlights stand out more in HDR content, and it overcomes a bit more glare in a well-lit room while watching SDR content. Unlike the Samsung, the Sony’s HDR brightness isn’t any dimmer while using 'Game Mode,' so you don’t have to trade in brightness for performance while gaming. The Sony also has better image processing, so it does a better job smoothing out low-quality content, and a slightly better job upscaling low-resolution content. Finally, the Sony supports the popular Dolby Vision HDR format used by many streaming services and 4k Blu-rays, and it supports DTS audio formats.
