    Can't see decibles (volume) on TV if using a sound bar that is not Sony, I was not told this when I purchased the TV. My ears have to decide the volume/decibles. If the slim TVs had better speakers, sound bars would not be necessary. It is very annoying.

      Hi Hello,
      Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We're glad to know we were able to give you a great deal. We're sorry to hear the issue that you are having with where there are few backlight leaks from the display. The LCD screen is made with high-precision technology to achieve a high level of performance and picture quality. To achieve this level of performance, the backlight setting of the TV is set to maximize the screen brightness. However, you may notice uneven brightness on the TV when watching in a dark environment or when the screen is blank. This condition is normal and not a malfunction of the TV. If you should find this affects your enjoyment, here are few adjustments that you can do to minimize this condition.
      Reduce the Backlight Level in the Picture Settings menu.
      Turn the Light Sensor setting to On in the Setup menu.
      Change the Power Saving setting to Low or High in the Setup menu.
      Set the Picture Mode to Standard in the Settings menu.

      You may also refer to this link with information on how to optimizes the brightness according to ambient light and adjust the backlight settings to display the brightest whites and deepest blacks. https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/televisions-projectors-lcd-tvs-android-/kd-50x85j/articles/00263533

      Hi Person1,

      Thank you for your review.

      We are sorry if the picture quality of our X85J did not live up to your expectations. This is definitely not the viewing experience we'd like you to have on our premium TV. Because input sources vary in the quality, type, and strength of the signal being received, it is normal for the overall picture quality to differ from different TV programs or input source to input source. As you know the X85J features various settings related to the TV display such as motion settings, color, and brightness for picture quality that you can adjust according to your preferences. You may check out the following links for more details:
