Best bang for your buck at 85"
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.So I'll start off with the 2 negatives of this tv for me. 1) it's Achilles heel which is brightness, after owning a Vizio, Samsung, and now Hisense for the bedroom tvs it is hard not to notice this tv doesn't get too bright. 2) tv corners of the screen are dark it can be highly noticable but i can deal with it with an 85 inch tv it is expected to not have 100% uniformity. Now the good part as far as watching movies, tv shows and live tv this thing is great. Colors are accurate and natural right out the box, and as I understand it almost needs no calibration. That being said the colors seemed muted to me for my viewing preference so i turned them up a bit in the settings to my liking. Motion on this tv is great and love that it is compatible with USB to Ethernet port to bypass the wifi limitations of the internet speed. Now to the most common thing I heard when considering to buy this tv, " just save your money and buy the 900h from last year it's the same tv". No this is not the same tv, they are very similar and share some components, but they have been refined on this model namely the gaming features. I have my PC with a 3080 plugged in at 4k 120 no perceivable issues. Also tried it on my Xbox series X both at 4k 120 and 4k 60 with Dolby vision as it is not capable of 4k 120hz Dolby vision at this time. With the PS5 it worked flawless. Vrr is not currently available but am sure this year's tvs will get it soon. Don't think Sony wants that headache of not putting it out. For the price this is the best bang for your buck at 85". Other alternatives are Samsung who doesn't support Dolby vision, or the LG 83 oled which is well over double the price as well as the x95j which will be better but idk if it will justify the almost 3k price difference with the 5 yr warranty. All in all for me at 3.5k with 5 years is a good deal for this tv.

Great TV, easy operation, a plethora of options.
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.Big TV with a great picture. I have this TV over my gas log fireplace; no, it doesn't get too hot. The TV is slightly angled and sits about six feet off the floor. The Room is approximately 20x24 with windows. Even with the blinds open, the TV still has a great picture. When I shut the blinds, or at night the TV really shines. I did find the wireless was faster than direct ethernet, due to the 100MB restriction when hooked up directly. If you have DISH or Direct TV be sure to set the resume last setting to default to eliminate the wait for the DISH to come on. So far this is the best TV I own and this includes my QLED Samsung. BTW the sound quality is okay, but I opted for the Sony Sound Bar with wireless Sub Woofer and sound is now awsome.

Great tv. Beware of open box items.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.Awesome tv. Reviews said it wasn’t for gaming. This tv rocks a series x at 4k 120hz with no problem. No lag. Just have to turn on vrr instead of Dolby vision in tv settings. Could not be happier with my tv. Awesome tuner. My 75 lg tv with the same indoor antenna had constant cut outs. With the Sony all channels play great and the colors are great. The open box experience did not go well once again. I bought an open box in excellent condition to find out in the store there was no box no table mounts or control. Basically only the tv. After they managed to pack it I had to load it in my truck risking to damage it. When I walk mounted it I discovered some scratches on the screen but fortunately you cant see them if you don’t go up close and from the side. Always go there and inspect what they are selling before you pay online. Fine print says you can get a refund and that’s it. But the price was good and after all that work to bring it home and mount it I decided to just let it go

Buy this , not a OLED ‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This is the closest picture I have ever seen , it’s so close to a OLED it’s amazing ‼️‼️‼️I got it to replace a 75 inch Samsung and WOW it was so worth it , going from 75 up to 85 is a huge deal , but the image quality upgrade was worth more then I can truthfully explain , really ‼️Don’t waste your time and money on a OLED , get this and spend the rest on a Atmos receiver and speakers , and call it a day‼️I am using it is a dedicated home theater and I absolutely hate projection TV’s this is so much better and if you turn on the lights , yep, you still have a killer picture ‼️‼️‼️

Fantastic Value (Best in class / Size bar none)
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.Simply the best value for the Money for this size TV in this price range. If you want to go Oled you would be spending significantly more. Colors look very natural out of the box. Local dimming is great and blacks are super black. Use this in a theater room in the basement. You will see limited blooming in limited circumstances. For example swirling white loading logo on black background or subtitles on a black background. The blooming is much less noticable in these limited circumstances when the lights are on. When viewing standard content you will never notice it. I could have opted for 75in in a different brand but I'm so glad I went with the 85inch colors and all sorts of content look great. I have a curved Samsung 55inch from 2016.... I am ashamed to say I spent 2400 or so on that TV. This 85 inch is better in every way and 30 inches larger coming in at 200 ~ 400 less than what I paid for the Samsung . This is a steal. Treat yourself. You deserve this TV.

Sony, Google Tv, Dolby Atmos
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.Very pleased with this tv. I was looking and researching for a TV with Google TV that also had Dolby Atmos and this is a match made in heaven for me. I already had a dolby atmos soundbar with my previous tv, just needed a TV with dolby atmos encoder and this has it. I also have a living with lots of light so I knew I needed a tv that could deal with glare and this is manageable. Obviously, this TV isn't an oled but watching shows and movies on this is amazing, especially at night which is when we mostly watch shows and movies! I took photos of the TV mounted and of the picture which is during the day with blinds closed. Truly enjoying this TV and the size. Finally, couldn't beat the price for the features and size of TV.

Sony is great !
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.I don’t know where we the way to begin the TV is really good and now offers VRR for PlayStation five which is great. Only use HDMI 3/4 if you are connecting a game console like PS5/Xbox Series X and then you have to go into the settings to turn on VRR or HDR10. Sony has so many hidden fractures. Space the pictures are great the blacks are really black compared to LG nano cell 90 Siri. The only problem that I have is the Wi-Fi keeps on cutting off so I bought an ethernet splitter because downstairs we don’t have Internet we only have one ethernet cable so this will do it and now it works fine Sony has a lot of features butter locked in the OS so you kind of have to read and figure out stuff on your own. It’s not so User-friendly but overall it’s a great TV

Great TV!
||Posted .THIS (Doug Demuro voice) is a great tv. It’s not perfect, but for those of us who aren’t balling out of control with a comparable sized OLED, this will be more than sufficient. This thing is massive, and you’ll need two people to handle it. (TWSS) Quality, performance, and sheer size, it’s all here. Also, (TWSS)

Q: QuestionWhy doesn’t the X91J use a better processor like the X1 ultimate or extreme? What is the TV sacrificing in picture quality and function by not using a better processor? What previous model uses the 4K HDR X1?
Asked by AGB18.
- A:Answer The X85J also uses the 4K HDR X1. Viewed in store I would say quality for the X91J would be between the X85J(slightly lower model) and X90Js that use the new Cognitive Processor. I would guess Sony did not put the Ultimate, Extreme, or New Cognitive Processor because then there would be no reason to move up to X95J series coming out within next couple of months. X91J only size in the lineup that did not get the Cog. Processor. IMO, the Cognitive view would take some getting used to especially for a person that watches movies over and over again to look for Easter Eggs, etc. The CP decides what's important to look at and kind of slightly blurs the rest so you focus on what it thinks you want to focus on. That's one opinion from one store visit but with months of research. Hope that helps.

Q: QuestionHow's this different from the X900H? (Reading the specs, this one seems like a rebadged X900H but with a higher price tag? What do I gain with this compared to X900H?)
Asked by ding.
- A:Answer Hi ding, thank you so much for your question! The main difference between the two models is the operating system. The X91J comes with Google TV operating system, while the X900H features our Android TV operating system. The Google TV platform on our 2021 TVs features a more content-focused experience, while the Android TV platform on our previous TVs is more app-focused. To know more about their features/product highlights, please check out the following links: KD-85X91J - https://electronics.sony.com/tv-video/televisions/all-tvs/p/kd85x91j XBR-85X900H - https://electronics.sony.com/tv-video/televisions/full-array-led/p/xbr85x900h I hope you find this information to be helpful! - Romeo

The picture quality of the TV will depend on many things such as the quality of the source, settings of the TV and depending on the room environment. We highly suggest playing and watching high-quality content with this TV and adjusting the picture settings according to the user's preference.

Q: QuestionAre there alternative legs for this TV? My TV cabinet is 16" deep. The stand is 17.37" deep, (IMO it's unnecessarily to deep). If no alternative, I will be unable to buy the 85" X91J or the X95J (when released). I have no intention for mounting the TV.
Asked by AGB18.
- A:Answer Hello AGB19, Unfortunately, there is only one set of legs for this TV. The measurement of the TV stand from front to back is approximately 17 3/8 inches (441.33 mm). If you prefer our KD-85X91J / X95J, you will need to have a new TV cabinet with a deep bigger than the TV stand. This is highly recommended to secure the TV and prevent it from toppling.
