After nine years of viewing a Panasonic plasma 50-inch beauty, I decided it was time to upgrade. I did my homework; read all the "professional" reviews I could find on current and soon-coming technology; read a zillion personal comments on OLED, LED, side and back lighting, etc. I must have spent 3-4 months on this research. After all of that, I chose the Sony XBR65X950B. While it is not quite plasma quality, this television is without question an ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE television. I know I said it above, but it bears repeating: "In a word . . . WOW! So, don't just sit there endlessly researching this thing; just go buy one.

After 2 years of watching adds and reading reviews I went for it. Glad I did...spend the $ and go for it. You will not be disappointed. Apps are sometimes a bit slow but that could be the App, the network, or the TV. I bought this to use as a TV and I have no regrets!

This is by far, the best TV I've ever seen. To be fair, we actually purchased the Samsung 78" curved model, for the same price, but returned it. The Samsung, although big, had light bleed through and the software did not do a good job upscaling. The Sony upscaling technology is light years ahead of other brand. Pay very close attention to upscaling as there if very limited 4k content out now, and this will be the case for years to come. Yes, we went from a 78" TV to a 65" for the same price, I we couldn't be happier. The Sony quality simply is much better. Size isn't everything. The software in the Sony is also much better than competitors, and this not only includes the upscaling, but also the very useful applications, such as YouTube. Is the TV expensive? Sure, but you get what you pay for. If you can afford it, the picture quality won't let you down.
