• Honestly just search for Sony A80K wall mount guide on YouTube. There is a really good video that basically walks through the whole port clearance issue and it is like the first result that pops up.


• You should definitely check the official Sony support site for the VESA diagram. It gives you the exact measurements for the offset so you can figure out where the TV will actually sit on your wall.


• I would also look at the Reddit threads for this specific model. People there are always comparing different brands and you can see photos of how the cables fit in that recessed area. Just make sure to double check those silver spacers because they are lifesavers. It is a bit of a project but you will get it figured out!

• Pipishell Full Motion TV Wall Mount PIMF1 is usually around 40 or 50 dollars and gives you enough extension to get behind there when you need to swap cables for the PS5.


• Mounting Dream MD2380 Full Motion TV Wall Mount is another solid budget pick that lets you pull the TV away from the wall to handle those recessed ports. A few big warnings for you because these OLEDs are fragile: 1. Use those silver spacers! If you dont use the ones that came in the Sony box, the bolts from the mount might go too deep and crack the internal components or the back panel. Its an expensive TV, dont risk it over a tiny piece of hardware. 2. Since the holes are so low on the chassis, the TV is gonna sit way higher than you think. Whatever height you measured for the bracket, you might want to consider dropping it down a few inches or you will be looking up at the ceiling. 3. Be careful with the weight distribution. Most of the weight is at the bottom where the electronics are, so it feels a bit lopsided when you are lifting it onto the bracket. Definitely a two-person job.

Apparently, Sony likes to put their VESA mounting holes way lower on the chassis than most other brands? So I was thinking, if I buy a standard tilting mount, is my TV gonna end up sitting way higher on the wall than I planned? I've got a specific height in mind so it clears my media console but stays eye-level. Plus, I saw some people mentioning these special spacer screws that come in the Sony box. I think I found them in a little plastic baggie, but I'm not sure if they work with every third-party mount or if they're just for specific ones.

The other thing bothering me is the port access. The A80K has that recessed area for the HDMIs and I'm worried if I get a mount that sits too flush, I wont be able to get my PS5 cables in there without bending them at a 90 degree angle. I'm really trying to stay under a $100 budget for the mount itself since the TV was already way more than I intended to spend lol. Does anyone have a specific brand or model they've used with recent Sony OLEDs that doesnt block the ports or require a degree in engineering to line up? I just want something reliable that wont fall off the wall or make the TV look crooked because of the weird weight distribution...
