Sony’s debut Mini LED TV, last year’s X95K, was mostly excellent, combining bags of brightness and contrast – just as we’d hope to see from Mini LED technology. The only problem was that despite driving its Mini LEDs with a decent number of local dimming zones, bright objects could still sometimes be surrounded by pretty noticeable halos of extra light.
Pre-launch demonstrations of Sony’s sophomore Mini LED TV, though, the X95L, suggested that the brand had found a way to tackle that previous haloing issue – something we’re able to confirm, now that we have a final production line model of the 65-inch X95L sat imposingly on our test bench.
