help Sony A8G OLED FAQ
Does the Sony A8G OLED support both Dolby Vision and HDR10+?
Yes, the Sony A8G OLED supports Dolby Vision, HDR10, and HLG HDR formats. It is powered by Sony's X1 Ultimate processor, the same image chip used in the higher-end Master Series A9G from the same 2019 lineup.
Does the Sony A8G have HDMI 2.1 ports for PS5 or Xbox Series X?
No, the A8G is limited to HDMI 2.0b ports, meaning it cannot support 4K at 120Hz or VRR for next-gen console gaming. If you need HDMI 2.1, the competing LG C9 from the same year offers it, as does Sony's newer A90J.
What sizes does the Sony A8G OLED come in?
The A8G was released in 55-inch (model XBR-55A8G) and 65-inch (model XBR-65A8G) sizes. There was no 77-inch variant in the A8G line, unlike the more expensive A9G series.
Does the Sony A8G use the same OLED panel as LG TVs?
Yes, the A8G uses an OLED panel manufactured by LG Display, the sole producer of large-format OLED panels. The difference lies in Sony's X1 Ultimate processing, which handles upscaling, motion, and color grading differently from LG's α9 Gen 2 chip found in the LG C9 and E9.
