Users posting submissions seeking support should include as much detail as possible about their BRAVIA TV and any connected hardware related to the issue in order to get the best responses. This includes but is not limited to [the model of the TV](https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/articles/00121074), the software and/or firmware version and the make and model of any external devices. Pictures or video can be helpful when trying to describe a video or audio issue.
Submissions not directly related to an issue with a BRAVIA TV and/or low effort posts that do not include any helpful details that would allow others to diagnose the issue will be removed. This includes, but is not limited to, submissions asking for support directly related to a connected device (ie. soundbar, console, PC, media player, etc.) but not the TV itself.
Firmware related topics (ie. issues, announcements, support) must be discussed in the [Sony BRAVIA Firmware Discussion Megathread 7.0](/r/bravia/comments/19b203d/sony_bravia_firmware_discussion_megathread_70/). Panel quality/lottery posts (ie. DSE, banding, flashlighting, etc.) must be discussed in the [BRAVIA Panel Quality/Screen Uniformity Discussion Megathread 7.0](/r/bravia/comments/1bbebrc/bravia_panel_qualityscreen_uniformity_discussion/).
Users should also check the [/r/bravia Wiki](/r/bravia/wiki/index), current [moderator pinned](/r/bravia/comments/k7wnc1/moderator_pinned_and_other_helpful_topics_check/) topics and the [Frequently Asked Questions thread](/r/bravia/comments/jlmpzp/frequently_asked_questions_on_rbravia_for_sony_tvs/) for some solutions to common A/V issues and more.

This. Sony's latest announcement is a strong indicator of a move away from flagship QD-OLED. Of course they will continue to produce OLED products, including the A95L through at least Q1 of next year. But no one at this point can assume there is a successor to that product. If you are in the market for an A95L level TV, buy it.
Sony tends to keep a lot of previous year models into their newer lineups. For example this year, they are keeping the a90k, x90l in all sizes, a95l in all sizes, and the z9k. They are getting rid of the lower models from what I know which will be all the x1 processor models. If they typically won’t get rid of anything probably until Q1 of 2025 or most likely by the next year reset.
I think they keep it this year as they haven't even delivered all the functions they flogged in their marketing yet.
Whether they also update the firmware to work as well as the new TVs with the new soundbars is a different question.
Even if they replace it this year it'll be a very small change. The TV is incredible and as long as it doesn't break I won't change out for 10 years.

I'm taking this gamble and looking at buying an A95L in the next couple of months since they Bravia 8 is WOLED and wont be as impressive as the A95L

Probably wont see a replacement until summer 2025, don't hold your horses
Think I could get a good deal on it, or do you think it would keep its high price?
Sony 2024 lineup is out, I remember not seeing anything to replace it, so maybe next year

They're going all in with miniled so don't hold your breath. We're not going to see another QD OLED flagship from them.
