Our Verdict
Sony X80K/X80CK
Sony BRAVIA 3
The Sony BRAVIA 3 is a bit better than the Sony X80K/X80CK. The BRAVIA 3 is a bit brighter overall, so it fights more glare in a room with the lights on, and highlights stand out slightly more in HDR content. The BRAVIA 3 has better PQ EOTF tracking and pre-calibration accuracy, so it's more accurate in SDR and HDR. Finally, the BRAVIA 3 has significantly better low-quality content smoothing, so it does a better job at removing artifacts in low-bitrate content.
