engadget.com Unknown 2025-12-25 22:15:24

I replaced my Samsung OLED TV with this Sony Mini LED model for a week - and didn't regret it

zdnet.com Chris Bayer 2025-12-25 22:01:00

Sony recently sent us the 2025 Bravia 5 TV, this one with a 98-inch screen and weighing in at 158 pounds. It goes without saying that this TV is a beast -- an expensive one. And the Bravia 5 is not even considered the company's flagship model (you can look to the Bravia 8 II for that). But this TV is impressive, and after testing it for a week, I'll explain why. Also: You should turn off this default TV setting ASAP - and why even experts recommend it The Bravia 5 is a Google TV, so setting up

Having his subjects sit for him allowed him to hone his skill for observation, resulting in wittily accurate portrayals that seemed to nail their personality and character traits. His genuine fascination for those he depicted would prove invaluable when he turned to photography in 1854, having first installed his artist brother Adrien in the profession. “He had figured out that people were willing to pay for images of famous people and this was a great tool as the images were quickly replicable
