I am blown away by this TV. I am going from the 4K Epson 6050 to this Z9J.. as well as owning the Sony X900H for the bedroom. Compared to last years models, the new XR processer adds a very beautiful uptic in quality. This TV paired with the Panasonic UB9000 with its HDR optimizer, its the most stunning image I have ever seen before. Popped in Sam Raimis Spiderman 2 on 4K and it felt like a brand new experience. Before I hooked up the surround sound system to the TV, I first tested the TVs built in speakers and I've gotta say its some of the best sound quality I've heard from TV speakers. The bottom frame of the TV is slighter larger than most and if you look closer you'll notice its due to basically a sound bar being built in... its got lows and high speakers built in which is insanely impressive. It also has binding posts on the back where you can actually use the TVs speakers as a center speaker with a AV Receiver. Highly recommend this TV!

We are extremely happy with the quality. It seems better than other brands we have seen. A remarkable Television.

This is a spectacular tv! Very deep black close to oled levels and it’s very very bright close to 4000 nits you’ll need sunglasses. Comes out of the box ready for viewing because the color is so accurate you really don’t need to adjust it too much. That XR processor is the best in the industry IMO. Google tv is very smooth and fast. The only problem with this tv for me is that this 10000 dollar 8k tv does not play 8k videos from YouTube or from a usb stick. Sony has no real answer if this tv will ever be able to play 8k videos from YouTube. If that doesn't bother you buy this tv because you’ll be getting the best tech that the tv industry has to offer but for me I’m going to return it for the 83” a90j

I received a defective unit out of the box. I hope the return and exchange turns out better for me. I replaced my CX 77 oled with the z9j, at the moment i regret the decision. I am receiving the replacement today. I am posting a picture of the issue, I do not know gow this issue can affect the overall performance of the tv.

Ultimately I was between the Sony Z9J and A90J. After using the TV for a few weeks now, it is safe to say I made the perfect choice for my daily use. The brightness of this TV and overall picture quality are superb. It’s soo bright that at night I lower it to 0. It truly is an experience to behold. Not to mention the size! I have tested most content (SDR/HDR/Dolby Vision&Atmos/Series X/PS5) and all perform exceptionally well. Dolby vision and HDR content looks clean and responsive.. at times I feel it gets too dark, which I didn’t expect from this TV, but is still a pleasant change considering how bright it always is. Gaming is great, although there is no G&FreeSync (VRR supposedly arriving Dec). I tried both 120fps and Dolby Vision 60fps on Xbox and I honestly prefer Dolby on a game such as Gears and 120 for a fast paced game like call of duty. Another downside is that you can’t have both and you will need to change between the two depending on the type of game you are playing. PS5 is strictly set at 120fps as Dolby Vision is not a current functionality. Still great to experience ps5 games that allow 120fps on this tv. My wife was blown away at how good Ratchet & Clank:Rift Apart looks. Audio is pretty good, but I use a 5.1 Sonos set up (Arc, 2 sides, sub), so I haven’t experimented much with the TVs audio. Google interface is easy to use and responsive allowing easy access to all your apps. The TVs settings menu is straight forward and has info on what each setting does. The remote control is one of the best I’ve used on a tv and the backlight is great when watching at night. The design is a little bulky, but not surprising. 2-3in too bulky in my opinion. The back of the panel is sleek and has panels designed to hide all wiring, which allows for a light strip to be attached (Phillips Hue Gradient highly recommended). All and all the Z9J is hands down the best TV I have ever owned. Future proofed with 8K functionality.
