Both Amazon and Sony have a good deal on the 77” A95L right now, but the Bravia 8 II still beats it on price.</p>\n","url":"https://micro.blog/jarrod/92971973","date_published":"2026-06-26T18:02:28+00:00","author":{"name":"Jarrod Blundy","url":"http://jb.heydingus.net","avatar":"https://cdn.micro.blog/photos/96/https%3A%2F%2Favatars.micro.blog%2Favatars%2F2023%2F02%2F5676.jpg","_microblog":{"username":"jarrod"}},"_microblog":{"date_relative":"2026-06-26 18:02","date_timestamp":1782496948,"is_favorite":false,"is_bookmark":false,"is_deletable":false,"is_conversation":true,"is_linkpost":false,"is_mention":true}},{"id":"92969765","content_html":"<p><span class=\"h-card\"><a href=\"https://micro.blog/siracusa@mastodon.social\" class=\"u-url mention\">@siracusa</a></span> P.S.
