    85 inches is crazy.

    I just bought a 65 inch and it's plenty big I guess unless you've got like a huge main room to sit like 20mtrs away LoL or have it mounted 10feet high….

        @imaDOOFUS if you're really sitting 3m away, 75" should be a bit above perfect, I just tried sitting 3m away from my TV and even though it FEELS like you could do with bigger, just try playing a video landscape on your phone that fills up the same amount of your vision as the TV does at 3m away and you'll find that it's plenty.

        Maybe at 3.5m+ and I would consider going bigger

      • Jjj888 on 26/07/2021 - 19:11

        @imaDOOFUS - my lounge room small maybe 3m away from TV and 65 is fine for me :)

          You should read up on viewing distances and standards. Sitting 3 metres away with a 65 is not that big at all. I currently have a 70 inch and sit 3 metres away and it's not big enough for gaming and movies for me. Normal TV does not matter. Think about how close you sit to a monitor, the monitor would fill your peripheral vision a lot more than your TV size and distance. Anyway I just bought this Sony 85 inch for my new house I'm building, it's for my theatre room which is about 3.8 metres long. 85 inch was needed minimum!

            @Justin9mm: Should have gone the projector route..
            My last place we built a theatre room, blacked out the whole room and had a 110" projector. Now that looked good!

            • Justin9mm on 27/07/2021 - 09:57

              @Maz78: I wanted something more versatile and I wanted 120hz gaming which projectors do not really properly support yet and I didn't want a projector and a TV. Also projectors in general aren't great for gaming, they do the job but the tech is just not there yet. When projectors get better I will probably invest in one then. I also would of loved an OLED but I really needed 85 inch minimum to get an immersive experience and I can't afford that size in OLED lol.

        got this 85" last month, my TV room is 5.5m long. Was thinking about 75" first, but glad i got 85". Very happy with the TV.
        Only thing i paid much more than this price (:. Great bargain @ this price.

    • customundo on 26/07/2021 - 21:22

      Depends on the size of your living room. I have 85" and could probably do with extra 12-14" to be honest

    • luffyex2010 on 26/07/2021 - 23:24

      We have one of these at the kids play area wall mounted approx 3-4 meters feels just right (paid extra $2100 replacement for a faulty 9400c 75") and another one upstairs which is about 5-6 meters …..we believe the perfect size would be 100-120" for that distance.

      My next screen would be a projector or a laser projector when my Sony television dies. It has to be 100" or more to feel the upgrade.

      If it is 20 meters away …..you might as well buy a 4k 8kprojector with a 300" screen.

      If you have the space….and of course the money it is never bigger.

    • 2BsQzrbgkL on 29/07/2021 - 13:03

      I purchased the 75" inch in the new year upgrading from a old cheap $400 42". Initially I was regretting it thinking I should of saved money and got the 65" as the 75" is monstrous and was an extra $1000 for ten inches. Six months on it doesn't seem that big anymore at just over 3m viewing distance, for movies a 85" would be nice especially with letter-boxing.

    This or pay the mortgage this month? I don't know which! I guess I could afford electricity more readily if I didn't have anywhere to live any more; but the stay at home orders! I am unsure where I would put the TV without a home (or be able to stay at home without one …)

    Decisions, decisions!

      Mortgage = 2% cost

      You have to ask yourself if saving yourself ~70 bucks a year is worth not having this massive tv…

      If it makes you feel better, I just built a PC for ~5k, definitely did not 'need' it.

      • MorriJ on 26/07/2021 - 19:50

        Yeah but Commbank keeps reminding me of my "spending" categories each month and I spend way to much already on junk.

    For anyone purchasing, you can install the X9000J software update on this and get ALLM and android 11. Did the update 2 weeks ago on my 75" and 55" and both have been travelling perfectly and android 11 is so much more user friendly I have found.

        Yup it would but it is a risk they are taking.

        Sony did promise the upgrade is coming this year, if it doesn't come I am sure it is another law suit or fake marketing feature to hit them for the 9000h owners.

    • Gebb on 27/07/2021 - 18:22

      Any chance you can post a link to a site discussing this?

  • Bargain-er on 26/07/2021 - 19:33

    If size doesn't really matter (still prefer bigger but not a must) . This or the newer 75" X90J?

    • Justin9mm on 26/07/2021 - 20:16
      +2

      The newer X90J is going to be a lot better. It will really come down to size whether you want 85 inch or settle for an all round better TV at 75. This 85 is still a very good TV but the X90J is much improved in a lot of areas.

      • mlburnian on 26/07/2021 - 20:21

        Rings says they are very similar

        • guidedlight on 26/07/2021 - 20:27

          The main issue with the X9000H is the processor can’t handle 120Hz well, and it causes a blurring issue.

          The X90J has a new more capable processor. HDR brightness is also much better.

          It also features the newer Google TV interface.

          • cristobaljames on 27/07/2021 - 19:14

            @guidedlight: Isn't the issue with blurring supposed to be dealt with by the VRR upgrade in the near future?

          • Bargain-er on 28/07/2021 - 09:13

            @guidedlight: I got approved for both 85 x9500h and 75 x90j. Too hard to read reviews out there since some reviews said xr1 processor is a gimmick and not much difference while some reviews said it's a worthy upgrade. Price is quite similar for around $3100

            • Jjj888 on 28/07/2021 - 09:14

              @Bargain-er: If it's just the processor yet everything else is the same? Then go for the bigger TV

              • Bargain-er on 28/07/2021 - 09:16

                @Jjj888: Nah, off course there some upgrades according to some reviews like pic quality in bright scene stc.

                But I'm just not sure it's a worthy upgrade. Read the build quality had dropped too.

                • Jjj888 on 28/07/2021 - 09:30

                    @Jjj888: Yeah, ur correct. May be minimal upgrade i would not notice. I'm open to Samsung or other brand as well. But seems Sony got really high reputation in their AV products.

IMHO, Hisense and Samsung Q85A looks best. Too bad U8G use non android os (Vidaa or something) which is a deal breaker for me.

    Bought one 6 weeks ago and only tonight I found out the wall bracket failed causing the TV fell onto the cabinet below.
    Haven't used the room in a few days so not exactly sure when it happened..

    Complete right off and insurance wont cover accidental damage, thanks RAC :(

    Be careful, these things are heavy, up around the 50-60kg mark if I'm not mistaken.
    I've had the bracket (purchased from Selby) in place for around 6 years with three TV's having their turn up there.

    Feel absolutely gutted now I have to look for a replacement, hope this doesn't happen to anyone else on here!

    • Monty85 on 27/07/2021 - 00:37

      Do you know exactly what bracket it was? I'm planning to hang mine on a Selby bracket too.

      The 85" X9000h weigh 45kgs without its stand by the way - The heavy duty Selby's advise they can do up to 100kgs so well within the limits for this.

      Out of interest - was it the bracket that failed, or the wall fixings?

      • cristobaljames on 27/07/2021 - 00:52

        The wall fixings failed, the bracket still appears to be in good condition.

        Looks like one of the two top fixings failed which caused it to lean and smash down on the right side first before the second (on the left side) gave way. Both were pulled out of the wall including the plugs from what I can see. The right lower fixing has been pulled slightly out but the bottom left is still firmly attached.

        I should have added more fixings when I felt the weight of this TV but I just did a straight swap over from the previous 75"

        Even though I was incredibly unlucky my amp was saved from being crushed as was my centre speaker so it could have been a lot worse.

        Please see the below post for the bracket link..

          Plugs? Was it not fixed to the wall studs?

          And yeah that type of wall bracket with the weight away from the wall likely didn't help either.

          Sorry to hear though.
