Home Theater Perfection (Without the OLED Price Ta
The only TV that can beat the X90L in pure picture quality is an OLED — but at 98”, you’d have to spend enough to buy a used luxury SUV to get one. The brightness on this beast is absolutely insane, yet somehow the black levels rival Sony’s own mini-LED models. Motion is smooth, colors are rich, and the sheer immersion of a screen this size is cinematic. If you’re in the market for a true home theater experience and catch this TV on sale, don’t hesitate. Just make sure you have the space — because once it’s in, you won’t want to watch anything else anywhere else.

Amazing TV
Traded up from a Hisense 100 inch U8 that wouldn't connect properly to my Denon 3700. This TV is seamless and flawless in almost every way. The upscaling, the brightness, eARC connectivity, sound decoding and ease of use is amazing. I picked it up when it went on sale for 6800 a couple of weeks ago. I cant imagine anyone would be disappointed with this massive beauty.

Awesome TV!
We have been very happy with the Sony 98" X90L TV to say the least. The picture is amazing. Even older SD DVDs and SD cable TV broadcast look spectacular. Setup and integration with our existing A/V equipment was easy. We recommend getting the Best Buy delivery and setup which was flawless. The TV is massive and needs a sturdy stand to put it on (like we did) if you are not hanging it on a wall. Make sure you consider the clearances of the entire path from front door to where the TV will sit before you consider it. This TV creates a very impressive presence in any room! It's the closest thing you'll get to having a movie theatre in your home.
