Best 4K HDR TV Period
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Truly beats oled in every way except viewing angles. Exchanged a LG 65EF9500 for this tv and all I can say is wow!!! 4K images are crisper and clearer on this tv. 4K HDR is outstanding with the extra peak brightness this tv has. Black levels are just as good as OLED without all the near black issues I had with my LG. Motion handling is much improved over the LG also. Upscaled blurays look like real 4K and direct tv looks good also upscaled on this tv. Much improved over the LG. The only thing the OLED did better was viewing angles, but with an IPS panel this can be expected. If it wasn't for this small issue this would be the perfect tv. You will not be disappointed with this tv at all. I feel it is well worth the money for the quality picture this tv displays. Sony definitely hit a home run with this tv. I feel it's the best tv on the market right now without question.

Died after 1 year
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Died after slightly 1.5 years. Picture showed half black halls white. Called Sony and they said it’s out of warranty. They could give me “deep discount” for the replacement. Luckily I bought extended warranty.

Not a 2018 OLED but still one helluva TV.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was upgrading my 10 year old DLP 3D TV to a Z9D. I loved that tv cause 3D movies look awesome but I wanted 4K. All the major tv makers stupidly removed 3D from all their models after 2016 which made no sense. Why couldn’t they make at least one model with 3D is beyond me. So the Z9D was my only affordable option for 3D and 4k. The Sony z9d does not disappoint, this tv rocks. The best feature is the brightness. Everything just looks incredible. 4k movies and video games on Xbox scorpio and PS4 pro is a major upgrade. Netflix 4k streaming look great too. Watching 3D movies with the brightness this bad boy has is a major grade from my 3D dlp tv. I’m very happy with my purchase and I have no regrets. I highly recommend buying it if you’re thinking about it. Yeah the oled tvs probably look better and with sharper blacks but it doesn’t look $1000 more better than the z9d. So glad I was able to come across it on sale for $1999.

BEST LED TV EVER
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.To be honest i am really impressed with this TV from Picture Quality to Build Quality. I had a hard time choosing between the Q8FN and Q9FN QLEDs but was not that impressed with the colors which are slightly better than the z9d. QLEDS have a wider gamut so that makes sense. Sony TVs have the best up-scaling and Natural colors which i like more than the QLEDs. The Samsungs i think have average at best up scaling compared to the Sony TVs. For all you buyers on the fence based on this being a 2016 Model Year TV don't be it was or mine is manufactured in September 2018. Still the BEST Local Dimming ever if you ask me. No blooming and the Best Blacks next to OLED wow. At first i didnt believe it until i saw it myself. I do have the Sony XBR900F which is good but the blooming is unacceptable and really bad. The motion is very good at least as well as the picture quality. The Contrast on the Z9D is the best i have ever seen on a LED LCD TV. I am not sure why other forums or complaints have been regarding motion on the Z9D having issues. I have not seen any motion issues at all. Again, for gamers the response time is typically high but i did not buy this to game anyways. For $2K bucks you cant go wrong and yes these will sell out very fast. As for the reason i didnt go with the Z9F, i think Sony dropped the ball on that TV regarding Contrast and Build Quality. The Black Levels on that TV are no where close to the Z9D. I feel like Sony is not putting alot of R&D as they did with the Z9D to the Z9F. Might be a push for OLEDs lol if you ask me. Z9D was gunning for the OLEDs but since Sony came out with OLED the Z9F took a turn for the worst. The Z9D is still King if i had a bigger budget i would have bought the 75 inch Z9D. Get the Z9D before they are completely gone.

Great TV
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this TV after reading reviews and visiting the showroom several times. This is an expensive purchase and i expected this TV to meet my expectations. It did so with flying colors. This is probably as good as it gets for current LED technology. I have been playing around with the settings, and my TV has not been professionally calibrated. Here are my observations: -This TV can be very bright and is really pops with HDR video. -It is a fantastic upscaler whether it be from component dvd, cable 1080p, blu-ray, streaming video, or the playstation game machine. -It produces very deep blacks and bright whites. - For the most part motion is very smooth and judder free. One exception is amazon which seems to produce overly compressed video -This TV is loaded with apps such as amazon, Netflix, Vudu, Sony Ultra, Playstation Vue, Hulu, Google Play, Youtube, and others, with plenty of onboard memory for adding more apps. -The Netflix and Amazon apps are now 4k and offer HDR content though on a limited basis - I'm able to stream 4K with HDR over wifi -There are 4 HDMI inputs, but only #s 2 and 3 accept 4k with HDR 1 and 3 accept 4k but not HDR and if you use ARC, which uses 3 then there is only one left (2) with the full bandwidth for HDR. -I use optical out for sound as my receiver is not HDMI. I have a 3.1 speaker setup and I'm getting 3.1 channel sound from the TV. -The operating system, though somewhat sluggish at times, has been very stable. I have experienced no crashes. -There are a lot of settings by picture type such as color, motion, etc. It takes a while to become familiar with them. Each input retains its own settings. I think the apps are grouped under the same settings. -It takes a while to become comfortable with the remote which is not backlit. I find it to be very directional, requiring several attempts sometimes to communicate with the TV. -I have not yet viewed Ultra HD content from a disc, as i don't have a Ultra HD blu-ray player. I received 8 free Ultra HD HDR movies from Sony for viewing on their Ultra website. They were outstanding For the most part, the ultra HD content on Amazon and Netflix is not at that quality, but still very good. - Ant-Man in 3D and it was very good, with great brightness. -Overall, I am extremely satisfied with this purchase and would highly recommend it. It provides the ultimate in video presentation with deep blacks and very little haloing on program credits. On most letter box presentations, the black borders are pure black, which make me think that the content provider is the cause when less than 100% black. I think the same may also apply to program credits. -I am continually amazed at the sharpness, contrast, color, depth, and smooth motion that this set provides. You won't go wrong with this TV purchase.

Q: QuestionI am in the market for a new TV with my eyes heavily on this. This TV is now two years old. Will Sony be releasing a new model soon? Is there any new tech that I should hold off for?
Asked by Ryan.
- A:Answer I am currently on my third Z9D 65inch in less than 3 months. The first lost half of the screen after a download update four days after the Geek Squad set it up. The second developed a horizontal white line about 2/3 from the top 10 days after it was delivered and set up. So far the 3rd is working great. This has a great picture when it is working. I have now met with several techs who came out and replaced my previous tvs. They had not seen the problems that I experienced. My first was plugged into a surge bar. The second into a battery backup surge protector. The techs thought that the download caused a problem in the first failure. The second was a chip failure. I asked what to replace it with if the third failed and they recommended the LG Oled series.

Q: QuestionWhat should I be looking for in a 4K TV
Asked by pharaohmen.
- A:Answer Hi Pharaohmen! If TVs are measured on picture quality, then the Sony Z-series stands alone. Near perfect black levels combine with the ability to reproduce the brightness and color of the real world, while your favorites get upscaled and enhanced to look like 4K HDR. It’s a viewing experience that can’t be replicated. You can check this link for more info: https://docs.sony.com/release//specs/XBR65Z9D_mksp.pdf. -Anthony
