                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Just saw this thread and honestly you are gonna love the <a href="https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/search?Ntt=Sony+BRAVIA+2+II+4K+Ultra+HD+TV+65-inch&BI=8941&KBID=10361&SID=12345&DFF=d50" target="_blank" rel="nofollow sponsored">Sony BRAVIA 2 II 4K Ultra HD TV 65-inch</a>! It is a fantastic choice for long-term ownership because Sonys image processing is just leagues ahead of the budget brands. For Cyber Monday 2025, you really want to keep an eye on B&H Photo or Crutchfield because they often offer those extended 5-year protection plans at a discount, which is amazing for peace of mind. Make sure you check for HDMI 2.1 specs on the 55 or 65 inch models so youre future-proofed for gaming with VRR and ALLM. If you want a setup that lasts, definitely look into the <a href="https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/search?Ntt=Sony+HT-A7000+7.1.2ch+Dolby+Atmos+Soundbar&BI=8941&KBID=10361&SID=12345&DFF=d50" target="_blank" rel="nofollow sponsored">Sony HT-A7000 7.1.2ch Dolby Atmos Soundbar</a> too. Using the Acoustic Center Sync feature is incredible... it basically turns the TV screen itself into the center speaker! It makes dialogue so much clearer. Also, dont forget a high-quality surge protector like the <a href="https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/search?Ntt=Panamax+MR4300+9-Outlet+Surge+Protector&BI=8941&KBID=10361&SID=12345&DFF=d50" target="_blank" rel="nofollow sponsored">Panamax MR4300 9-Outlet Surge Protector</a> to protect that motherboard long-term. Those Cyber Monday spikes are real and you dont want to fry your new baby!</p>]]></content:encoded>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Tbh I actually disagree slightly with the focus on bundles. Usually the soundbars they throw into those Cyber Monday packages are entry-level models that dont really do the BRAVIA 2 II justice. If you want a truly better experience for the same total cash, skip the bundle and buy the 55 or 65 inch set solo, then grab something like the <a href="https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/search?Ntt=Sonos+Beam+Gen+2+Soundbar&BI=8941&KBID=10361&SID=12345&DFF=d50" target="_blank" rel="nofollow sponsored">Sonos Beam Gen 2 Soundbar</a> separately. It handles Dolby Atmos way better than the cheap kits retailers push. Also, definitely dont fall for the expensive HDMI cables or mounts the sales reps try to add on. I always use the <a href="https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/search?Ntt=ECHOGEAR+Full+Motion+TV+Wall+Mount&BI=8941&KBID=10361&SID=12345&DFF=d50" target="_blank" rel="nofollow sponsored">ECHOGEAR Full Motion TV Wall Mount</a> for my Sony sets because it is solid and way cheaper than the ones Best Buy stocks in-store. And for cables, just grab a <a href="https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/search?Ntt=Zeskit+Maya+8K+HDMI+Cable+2.1&BI=8941&KBID=10361&SID=12345&DFF=d50" target="_blank" rel="nofollow sponsored">Zeskit Maya 8K HDMI Cable 2.1</a> instead of the $80 ones at the counter. Youll save like $100 total by DIYing the accessories instead of taking the store bundle, which basically pays for a year of Netflix anyway.</p>]]></content:encoded>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hey,<br />
<br />
So everyone’s covering price/values already, I’ll be the annoying safety nerd 😅<br />
<br />
**Tip:** When you’re hunting Cyber Monday deals on the BRAVIA 2 II (55&quot;/65&quot;), prioritize **where** you buy over saving that extra $50.<br />
<br />
- Stick to **authorized retailers** (Best Buy, Amazon *sold by Amazon*, Costco, Sony direct). I’ve seen sketchy outlets pushing “open box” BRAVIAs that had cracked mounting points and missing grounding screws… not fun when you wall‑mount a 65&quot; over a couch.<br />
- If you’re wall‑mounting, make sure the bundle includes a **VESA‑rated mount** that supports the exact weight of the BRAVIA 2 II (check the manual/specs, don’t just trust “up to 70&quot;”).<br />
- Look for deals that still include **full Sony warranty** – not “seller warranty only”. That matters if you get panel issues or power problems after a few months.<br />
- For soundbar bundles, confirm the bar has **eARC** and proper surge protection (either a good surge strip or a UPS). Cheaper bundles sometimes skip that, and I’ve had issues after a power spike.<br />
<br />
So yeah, chase the deal, but double‑check safety/mounting/warranty details before clicking buy.<br />
<br />
Hope this helps!</p>]]></content:encoded>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hey,<br />
<br />
Coming at this from the super budget/value side rather than just hunting the **biggest-looking** discount.<br />
<br />
**Background / what usually happens**  <br />
Sony tends to run fairly *controlled* discounts on current-year BRAVIA lines. For sets like the BRAVIA 2 II, what I’ve seen the last few years is:<br />
- **MSRP drop in early Nov** (this is the quiet “official” price cut)<br />
- **Black Friday/Cyber Monday adds a bit more** (often another 8–15%)<br />
- Then prices either stay close to that or creep *back up* in December<br />
<br />
So the “Cyber Monday doorbuster” for a 55&quot;/65&quot; BRAVIA 2 II is usually not a massive surprise, it’s more like the *bottom* of a curve that started a few weeks earlier.<br />
<br />
**Why this matters for your wallet**  <br />
The trap is:<br />
- You see “$X OFF!!” but that’s off the old MSRP, not last week’s sale price.<br />
- You overpay for a bundle you don’t actually need (overpriced soundbar, useless streaming credits).<br />
<br />
So you might want to consider **total cost of ownership**, not just the TV sticker price.<br />
<br />
**Practical gameplan (cost-conscious)**<br />
1. **Set a target price now**  <br />
   Look at current prices and subtract ~15–20% as a realistic Cyber Monday target:  <br />
   - 55&quot; BRAVIA 2 II → if it’s, say, $1,199 now, I’d aim for ~$950–1,000.  <br />
   - 65&quot; BRAVIA 2 II → if it’s $1,499 now, I’d aim for ~$1,200–1,250.<br />
<br />
2. **Compare bundles vs DIY**  <br />
   Retailer bundles (Best Buy, Costco, etc.) love to throw in:<br />
   - Mid-range Sony soundbar<br />
   - Extended warranty<br />
   - Gift cards / streaming credits<br />
   <br />
   Be careful here:<br />
   - Many Sony soundbars drop by **$100–200** on their own around Cyber Monday. Often cheaper to buy TV bare + soundbar separately.<br />
   - Warranty through retailer is usually more expensive than just using a good credit card warranty extension.<br />
<br />
3. **Watch warehouse clubs and authorized online dealers**  <br />
   - **Costco/Sam’s**: often similar TV price but extra year of warranty included → that’s real value if you plan to keep it 5–7 years.  <br />
   - **Authorized online dealers** sometimes do unadvertised “in-cart” discounts or add gift cards that effectively drop the price another 5–10%.<br />
<br />
4. **Check return policies and price protection**  <br />
   If you buy **a week before** Cyber Monday (because stock is sketchy), make sure to:<br />
   - Confirm return/price-match window (Best Buy, Amazon, etc. usually flexible this time of year).  <br />
   - Some cards still offer limited price protection; that can save you if it drops again within 30–60 days.<br />
<br />
5. **Don’t overpay for small spec jumps**  <br />
   If the 65&quot; BRAVIA 2 II ends up only like $150 more than the 55&quot;, that’s usually worth it for the size jump. But if the 65&quot; deal is weak and you see last-year’s equivalent 65&quot; model for $300 less, it *might* be smarter to take the older model and put the savings toward a proper soundbar.<br />
<br />
**TL;DR value play**  <br />
- Track prices now so you know if Cyber Monday is a *real* deal.  <br />
- Prioritize: panel quality + size + warranty over flashy bundles.  <br />
- Watch Costco/Sam’s/authorized online dealers for best value, not just Amazon’s headline price.<br />
<br />
Hope this helps! If you share current prices you’re seeing on the 55 vs 65, people here can sanity-check whether the eventual Cyber Monday deal is actually good or just marketing fluff.</p>]]></content:encoded>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hey, so from the more nerdy/price‑tracking side of things, I’d say: don’t just look at the headline “Cyber Monday” price on the BRAVIA 2 II, watch the *effective* price.<br />
<br />
Technically, Sony sets pretty strict MAP (minimum advertised pricing), so big undercuts usually come from:<br />
- **Stacked promos**: store sale + card cashback + manufacturer rebate<br />
- **Bundles**: discounted Sony soundbar, or gift cards that effectively drop the TV price<br />
<br />
In past years, 55&quot;/65&quot; mid–high Sony models typically hit **18–25% off MSRP** on Black Friday weekend, then sometimes an extra **5–10% effective** via gift cards or points on Cyber Monday at places like:<br />
- **Best Buy** – often best for TV + soundbar bundles<br />
- **Costco/Sam’s** – extra warranty + decent price, less flashy but good long‑term value<br />
- **Amazon** – good for brief lightning deals, but watch for third‑party sellers and weird return policies<br />
<br />
You might want to:<br />
1. **Track current baseline** now with something like camelcamelcamel / Keepa (for Amazon) so you can see if Cyber Monday is *actually* a deal.<br />
2. Decide if you care more about **gaming features** (HDMI 2.1 ports, VRR, 4K120, Dolby Vision in game mode) vs. pure movie use. If you game, make sure both HDMI 2.1 ports are free for PS5/Series X and not eaten up by your sound system (eARC sharing can be annoying).<br />
3. Factor in **total cost**: Sony’s premium LEDs look great, but you might get similar real‑world performance cheaper with something like Hisense U8 series or TCL QM8 and put the savings into a soundbar.<br />
<br />
If you’re set on BRAVIA 2 II, I’d suggest waiting until **late Black Friday night through Cyber Monday morning** – that’s when I’ve seen the more aggressive bundle/GC offers pop up for Sony, not just the base discount.<br />
<br />
Hope this helps!</p>]]></content:encoded>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hey,<br />
<br />
I’m kinda in the same boat and just went through this with a BRAVIA 2 II 65&quot; for my parents last year, so FWIW here’s what I saw and what I’d do again:<br />
<br />
Short version: the *best* Cyber Monday prices for Sony usually hit at the big electronics chains + Amazon, but the really nice **bundles** (soundbar, gift cards, install, etc.) were better at Best Buy and Costco than Amazon.<br />
<br />
On the 65&quot; BRAVIA 2 II last year:<br />
- Base discount: ~15–20% off MSRP on Black Friday<br />
- Cyber Monday: sometimes an extra $50–$100 drop or added gift card instead of a lower base price<br />
- Bundles: Best Buy had TV + mid‑range Sony soundbar for less than buying them separately by like $150–$200<br />
<br />
If you’re eyeing 55&quot; or 65&quot;, I’d:<br />
1. **Track prices from early November** on Amazon, Best Buy, Costco, and Sony’s own store.<br />
2. **Check warehouse clubs** (Costco/Sam’s) – they often throw in extra warranty which is underrated for TVs.<br />
3. If you see ~20% off plus either a soundbar deal or a $100+ gift card, I’d personally pull the trigger.<br />
<br />
Also, don’t ignore open‑box “Excellent” units at Best Buy around that time – mine was open‑box and it’s been solid.<br />
<br />
Hope this helps! Happy to compare prices if you post what you’re seeing closer to the date.</p>]]></content:encoded>
