“How does this tv compare to Model XBR-65X850D, which is $500 cheaper?”

• we considered both sets. The Best Buy rep demonstrated them with the same picture side by side - it was quite noticeable. The picture quality and color is excellent. Buy the 930D if you have the extra money.

• The HDR is very much enhanced by the Slim Backlight Drive and the black levels are drastically improved over the x850D

• The more expensive model features 3D while the cheaper model does not. The backlight technology is slightly different with the more expensive model lighting or dimming by region and the cheaper model doing variable intensity depending on scene.

• Hi, they're almost the same except for the 3D capability. The X850D doesn't have 3D feature. Thanks! ^Ron
