Which 77" - 85" TV to Buy? (Budget $6500)

Hey guys,

I'm considering getting a TV for my living room.

Have shortlisted the below:
1) Sony 85" X900H (~$3700)
* Pros: good value, decent PQ
* Cons: questionable implementation of 4k@120, panel is fairly thick

2) Samsung 85" QN85A (~$5225)
* Pros: bright, mini-led panel
* Cons: potential panel issue/dirty screen effect

3) LG 77" C1 (~$6520)
* Pros: best PQ
* Cons: expensive, potential burn in

Any comments on which of the above to pick?
Thanks in advance!

Cheers!

      Thanks for the recommendation, I also considered the q8 but lack of HDMI 2.1 so not ideal.

    One of your options is double the cost of the other. So what's your budget? If it covers all then obviously get the OLED. If it doesn't, then Sony.

    • The C1 is definitely near the top end of my budget, I wouldn't pay anything more e.g. for the G1 evo.

      Considering the best price for last year's model (CX) went for ~$6k and mostly sold out now, I guess $6.5k for the C1 isn't too bad if the depreciation is only ~$500 over the next 12 months. So yes, C1 is on my shortlist, best PQ however being smaller and more expensive than the other 2 options :/

  • Some nice TV there, Where can you get the 86 Inch sony X9000h for $3700 ?

    • My local gg quoted me $3900 delivered, with complimentary 5 year gold concierge services.

      I can get 5% off gg gc bringing it down to $3900 * 0.95.

      Another Ozb member managed to get his local HN to do $3950, with bonus $450 HN gc!

        That's amazing value
        well done

        I have to agree thought , new models are around the corner, like the X90J with better HDMI 2.1 Support
        Might be worth waiting just little longer.

  • Wait for u8g

    • Looks like will only be released in 55" and 65" sizes?

      • +1

        • Early reviews looking good!

          I tried to add it as a voting option but couldn't update the poll :/

          • @chew_chew: Doesn't matter, as long as it's now on your radar. Hopefully out soon

    Wait for X95J. HDMI2.1 supported and enhanced all cons X9000H has.
