good Sony option
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sony does a great job with TVs. Solid picture and of course the size of the screen does great. I will be purchasing an OLED next time though. The difference is still amazing

Do NOT buy this TV!
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have been a Sony fan my entire life and am soooooo disappointed by the X950H 85"! The TV is AMAZING when it is working, but 9 months after I bought it, it suddenly shut off and the Sony logo started flashing red. Thank goodness I bought the warranty, but it took Best Buy 3 weeks to come out. They were able to get fix the issue for about two months, then the same thing happened. My second tech visit involved the tech replacing one of the panels only to find that the issue started again after a few minutes. The tech is coming back in two weeks to replace a different panel; My Tv has been unwatchable for almost 5 weeks out of the last year. Best Buy sold me on this warranty explaining how awesome it would be if anything goes wrong, but they keep stuff from you. For the first year, they wont allow you to exchange the tv and your warranty service is limited as it is still under the manufacturer's warranty. I literally have to wait a month (my year mark) for them to even consider allowing me to exchange this $4,000 TV. The tech even admitted that all of his 4 calls earlier were all Sony TVs. This particular model could just be a fluke, but it has made me lose faith in the company and I will be buying a different brand next month when I can exchange it. Again, this model is one of the most AMAZING/BEAUTIFUL tv's I have ever seen....when it is working. The problem is that it is extremely unreliable.
