“I just purchased this TV and it was between the Samsung KS8000 and this one. For the life of me can not get the picture to look even as good as my old Samsung. Does anyone have any advice for settings?? Is it as simple as setting or even a better HDMI?”

A better picture is going to depend on a few variables. Get a good HDMI, a good surge protector with power filtration, and consider a calibration through Geek Squad, it's $350.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Go online and search settings for XBR-65X850D.The provided settings made a 300% improvement over factory defaults to me.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.go for audioquest hdmi's. nothing less than the carbon level. the picture will never be as bright or as vivid as the Samsung though. Sony's colors and tones are much more natural than Samsung's "artificial" picture.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.This will be hard to judge, since we don't really know your picture preference. I've owned samsung in the past and their picture quality is brighter and more saturated. Colors really "pop," which you might be used to/prefer. So far I love this Sony TV, color accuracy is wonderful and not overdone. Maybe try different color profiles or even resetting the device. Of course, there are calibration DVD's you can purchase, but I feel like those are hit or miss. My TV color reproduction was good for me out of the box.
