Why you should buy the Sony 65-inch A95L

On paper, Sony brands the A95L as an OLED set. Technically, it’s a QD-OLED TV. We have a thorough explainer on this TV tech, but the long-short of it is that the “QD” stands for quantum dots. Combine the acronyms, and you get “Quantum Dot Organic Light Emitting Diodes.” Quantum dots are used on many mid-range and premium TVs to enhance brightness and colors (especially when viewing HDR content). Still, it’s Sony’s proprietary picture tech — including its Cognitive Processor XR and XR Triluminos Max engine — that pushes the A95L’s picture quality over the edge.

But even if you ripped all the picture processing out of the equation, the A95L is still equipped with one of the most gorgeous OLED panels we’ve seen on a modern TV. And because every self-emissive pixel is individually controllable, when a pixel isn’t displaying any info, it’s completely turned off. This means that dark scenes on the A95L show up with inky black levels, which is precisely what every videophile hopes and dreams for.

The Sony A95L is a terrific TV for gaming, too, especially if you plan on connecting a PlayStation 5 console. You’ll get to enjoy features like HDMI 2.1 (on two of the TV’s ports), top-notch motion clarity, and VRR support. The A95L also uses the Google TV OS for all things streaming and UI. Fire up the interactive platform to stream your favorite movies and shows through apps like Netflix and Disney+, or wirelessly mirror content from your iPhone or Android device to your brand-new Sony TV!

It’s hard to say how long this markdown is going to last, but our experience with Best Buy deals is that they tend to come and go pretty quickly. That being said, now is the best time to save that $200 on the purchase of a new Sony 65-inch A95L OLED. We also recommend looking at some of the best Labor Day OLED TV deals we’ve been finding.

Marshall refreshes its Acton and Stanmore speakers with better bass and repairability

Marshall launches Acton IV and Stanmore IV

Marshall has refreshed two of its most popular wireless speakers. The company has officially unveiled the Acton IV and Stanmore IV, bringing a series of meaningful upgrades that go beyond simply making them louder. While improved bass and cleaner sound are part of the package, Marshall is also making a welcome push toward repairability, allowing owners to replace several external components instead of replacing the entire speaker.

I was skeptical of clip-style open earbuds. After trying my first pair, I don’t want to go back
No pressure, no plugged-up feeling, no fatigue. After months of all-day wear, open-air audio earclips have earned a permanent spot in my routine.
Baseus Bowie MC2 earclip earbuds.

I am not what you would call an audiophile. I don't obsess over terms like LDAC and DSEE upscaling. For me, they're just another utilitarian gadget to get the job done. Somewhere along the way, however, I stopped judging earbuds purely on how they sound and started paying closer attention to how naturally they fit into an ordinary day.

So much of this category now chases bass, noise cancellation, and a spec sheet full of features that comfort has quietly become an afterthought. I recently got a chance to try the Baseus Bowie MC2, my first pair of earclip-style earbuds. It came as a revelation for me. I picked them up from Amazon at $40, so it wasn't a big hit on my wallet either. The leap of faith, I'd say, was well worth it.
