sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1014px) 100vw, 1014px\" \/><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-85353\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">We have an interesting design, especially for the good construction that is offered to us<\/p>\n<p>The\u00a0Sony KD-65X82J\u00a0delivers a nice appearance that looks good in any environment.\u00a0First, we have a 65-inch television, a large size that seems ideal for rooms or large rooms.\u00a0We also recommend the VESA mount for better installation\u00a0.<\/p>\n<p>The best thing is to adapt it directly to the wall so we can make the most of its aesthetics.\u00a0Especially since the front has thin bezels that offer 93.24% of the screen area\u00a0, therefore, we will have a more beneficial space to play content.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"

sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This is accompanied by a black chassis that seeks to deliver a more elegant TV with a better presence.\u00a0If we turn the television over, we will realize that it has a cleaner construction with a finer style.\u00a0Another strong point is that the construction is quite resistant\u00a0.<\/p>\n<h3>Connectivity<\/h3>\n<p>Now let&#8217;s talk about the connector box that seems complete for a model with these characteristics.\u00a0We have four\u00a0HDMIs\u00a0to connect external devices.\u00a0We also have two\u00a0USB\u00a0to play and record content.\u00a0Its\u00a0Ethernet\u00a0port\u00a0is ideal for connecting to the internet.<\/p>\n<p>Other physical connections that are great for us are its\u00a0satellite input\u00a0, its\u00a0digital audio output\u00a0, its\u00a0AV composite\u00a0and its\u00a0antenna\u00a0.\u00a0Likewise, this equipment offers an interesting variety of tuners for the channel trail.\u00a0To know them we leave you the table of specifications above.<\/p>\n<h4>Wireless connectivity<\/h4>\n<p>We find the most popular options to get the most out of this TV, for example, its\u00a0Wi-Fi\u00a0connection\u00a0that allows us to use the internet remotely.\u00a0Likewise, we have\u00a0Bluetooth 4.2\u00a0to connect different devices.\u00a0To transmit we have\u00a0DLNA\u00a0.<\/p>\n<h2>Image quality and general functions of the Sony 65X82J<\/h2>\n<p>The most important section of the\u00a0Sony 65X82J\u00a0is its image quality, which seems quite acceptable if we consider several points and the good optimization that is offered.\u00a0To begin with, we have a 4K resolution that has four times more power than Full HD, therefore,\u00a0we will be able to enjoy more realistic details\u00a0.<\/p>\n<p>This definition is accompanied by a\u00a0Direct LED\u00a0panel\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0that we could consider as the weakest point, since its backlight does not reach the necessary power if we are in very dark or bright environments, so\u00a0\u00a0the placement of the TV ends up being something important\u00a0, this way we can avoid quality losses that are very noticeable.<\/p>\n<p>We must mention that this television has different improvement technologies that will be of great contribution to receive a much better final experience.\u00a0In this case we have\u00a0\u00a0Live Color\u00a0\u00a0that is responsible for giving us more vivid colors.\u00a0For the contrast we received the contribution of\u00a0\u00a0Pixel Contrast Booster\u00a0\u00a0for a sharper experience.<\/p>\n<p>There will be other features that also provide a considerable improvement, for example,\u00a0\u00a0Triluminos Pro Display\u00a0,\u00a0\u00a0XR Super Resolution\u00a0\u00a0and\u00a0\u00a04K X-Reality Pro\u00a0.\u00a0Another noteworthy point is that this model has dynamic formats that will offer us an incredible response when it comes to watching movies and games.\u00a0We have\u00a0\u00a0Dolby Vision\u00a0,\u00a0\u00a0HDR10\u00a0\u00a0and\u00a0\u00a0HLG\u00a0.<\/p>\n<h3>Sound<\/h3>\n<p>Another weak point, so to speak, of this television is its audio quality, since it only offers us a total of 20W, which is not enough when listening to more demanding content.\u00a0Luckily, improvement technologies such as\u00a0Dolby Atmos\u00a0,\u00a0\u00a0DTS Digital Surround\u00a0\u00a0and\u00a0\u00a0X-Balanced speaker\u00a0have been integrated\u00a0\u00a0that will give us a more immersive and clean experience, however, to hear everything with greater clarity it is necessary to acquire an external sound bar.<\/p>\n<h2>Smart TV \/ software review and more highlights<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-85354 size-full lazyloaded aligncenter\" title=\"This model integrates Android TV, a system that we think is quite good due to the different functions that it allows us to use.\"

system that we think is quite good due to the different functions that it allows us to use.<\/p>\n<p>The most outstanding thing about the\u00a0Sony KD-65X82J\u00a0\u00a0is that it has a recent version of the Android system that includes better optimization and security,\u00a0\u00a0although we should not rely much on this either\u00a0.\u00a0Navigation feels fluid and the most interesting thing is that it is a very intuitive platform that anyone can use.<\/p>\n<p>Likewise, it has the most extensive catalog of applications that currently exists, and we are not lying when we say that you can install more than 5,000 applications, where we will find the most popular options such as\u00a0Netflix\u00a0,\u00a0\u00a0Prime Video\u00a0,\u00a0\u00a0Disney +\u00a0,\u00a0\u00a0Movistar\u00a0,\u00a0\u00a0HBO\u00a0\u00a0and\u00a0\u00a0YouTube\u00a0.\u00a0Likewise, we will have the possibility to download games, movies and music.<\/p>\n<p>This television has compatibility for\u00a0\u00a0Google Assistant\u00a0\u00a0and\u00a0\u00a0Amazon Alexa\u00a0, which allows us to control certain functions of the television using only our voice, thus facilitating the use we give it.\u00a0They include\u00a0\u00a0Apple AirPlay\u00a0\u00a0and\u00a0\u00a0Apple Homekit\u00a0\u00a0that allow us to\u00a0transmit all types of content from an iPhone, iPad or
