When they talk about the viewing angle how do you figure that out? I want to make sure everyone can see a good picture in my family room. null

Question

X85J · Accepted Answer

If you're really worried about viewing angle I would buy the x80j. Has a IPS panel and has better viewing angles. Costless too. Some people can't tell the difference. There might be a slight difference in less brightness. The 75-in x85j is not too bad with viewing angles unless you are really off to the side. Because of what I read I was worried about the viewing angle after I ordered mine but it's pretty good.

Hello RHB,

Thanks for reaching out!

The best viewing distance depends on the size and the display resolution of the TV. The recommended distance for comfortable viewing depends on the video or program you are watching, the viewing environment, and the physical conditions of the person watching it. When watching the TV from a suitable distance, we recommend looking away from the TV now and then or try watching it at a different viewing angle. You may refer to the link below for our recommended viewing distance when watching TV:

Additionally, the X85J features various settings related to the TV display such as Brightness, Color, Hue, etc. for picture quality that will help improve your overall viewing experience. Please refer to the link below for more details:

If side view angle viewing is your priority, then we recommend our X95J which features X-Wide Angle™. Watching TV from the sides is now as satisfying as from the center. Sony's original optical design to control the light from the backlight, the X-Wide Angle panel ensures colors stay true from wherever you're watching.
