Sony A95L operates on the Google TV operating system, which means easy access to a wide range of applications, streaming services, and various personalization features. The interface is clear and easy to navigate, and the wealth of available applications ensures that everyone will find something for themselves – from popular streaming services like Netflix, Disney+, and HBO Max, to various music and sports apps. Google TV also supports a voice assistant, allowing you to easily search for content, control TV settings, and even manage other smart devices in the home – all with simple voice commands.
Sony A95L also offers a range of practical features that make it even more versatile. The TV has the ability to record programs directly to USB memory, providing a convenient solution if you can't watch something live. It also supports AirPlay, making it easy to stream content from Apple devices, and additionally, various peripherals such as headphones or game controllers can be connected via Bluetooth. The package includes two remotes – one traditional and a modern, backlit one, which is particularly useful during evening viewing when the room is dark. It is worth mentioning the lack of the PIP feature, which allows watching multiple TV signals simultaneously.
As for the appearance, A95L Sony may not be the thinnest OLED TV on the market, but it has its advantages. The package includes a practical stand that can be adjusted in various ways, allowing you to tailor the TV to your needs and space arrangement. Additionally, the manufacturer included the Bravia Cam, which opens up additional possibilities – from video calls to intelligent features, such as optimizing picture and sound based on the viewer's position. Although it is not the slimmest, its solid construction and useful accessories make the A95L look really good in any living room.
Smart TV System and WebOS
A huge plus of LG TVs – even those in the lower or mid-price range – is that the manufacturer does not treat them "less favorably" in terms of software. The QNED80A runs on the latest version of the WebOS system, which performed excellently during our tests. The interface operated smoothly, responded quickly to commands, and most importantly – was very intuitive. Much of this is thanks to the famous Magic Remote, which works like a computer mouse – we control the cursor on the screen with wrist movements. However, there’s an unexpected surprise here. In the 2025 model year, the controller underwent quite a drastic transformation. It has been minimized and slimmed down. Modern users will probably appreciate this change because the remote fits nicely in the hand and looks more "premium." However, traditionalists may feel disappointed – the miniaturization has come at a cost, including the removal of the classic numeric keypad, which may complicate quick channel selection.
Classic Features and Multimedia
When it comes to so-called classic features, the QNED80A does not strive to be a revolutionary product. It is simply a solid piece of equipment that does what it was designed for. There are no hidden "gimmicks" here, but we also did not miss anything. The traditional Teletext works flawlessly, and the wireless connectivity modules (such as Bluetooth and Wi-Fi) are stable and quickly pair with external devices, e.g., headphones or a soundbar. In this regard, the TV simply does not throw obstacles in our way – it works as we expect, not standing out in any particular way from the competition, but also not giving any reasons to complain.
