Sony - XBR X850D Series 75" Class (74.5” diag) - LED - 2160p - Smart - 4K Ultra HD TV with High Dynamic Range

I've always purchased Samsung TV's in the past. Mainly because they are reliable and if something goes out on them it is a fairly simple fix. I decided to try this Sony model for several reasons. It was cheaper than the other comparable models. It has a great picture quality and have been wanting to upgrade to 4K for some time. I was in the market to upgrade from my 65" plasma. It is pretty heavy, though which turns mounting on the wall into a two person job. It is also so thin that I was nervous about damaging it while putting it up. The instructions specifically address that you are not to put your hands on the screen. This is very difficult to not do as the edges don't give much room for a grip. I can't give an opinion on the sound as I am using the ARC to a Denon AVR-x4200w receiver. They have worked really well together, but the ARC HDMI plug-in is located directly behind the TV and is about impossible to reach if it is mounted directly to the wall as mine is. So, plug it in before you hang it. I also attached some LEDs behind it for some flare.

I have been looking at 75' tv's for some time now and narrowed it down to Samsung 8500, Sony 850D and the Sony 940D. I chose not to go with Samsung because the colors were a bit too vivid for me and didn't seem natural. Once I decided on Sony it really came down to did I want to buy the Sony 930D, which was a 65', for a similar price or buy the Sony 850D but upgrade the size to a 75'. I decided to go with the 75' because I have a very large basement and I needed the extra screen to make it easy to view anywhere. The good: This TV is incredible and it looks amazing on most content. I have Directv and it does fairly good but it absolutely shines when I turn the channel to a 4k channel such as 104. YouTube, Amazon Prime, Netflix and basically any streaming content looks incredible!. Blu-Rays are phenomenal and the smart TV features are perfect for me. The Bad: I almost took back the TV for this single reason. The TV is a LED Edge lit TV so that means the light for the picture comes from the sides and not the back like a full array TV such as the 940D. At night with the lights off there is some light flashing and light bleed that is rather annoying on dark scenes but I just couldn't bring myself to spend an additional $2k for the upgrade 940D but a simple fix is to turn on some light, even a little works, and the issues is reduced immensely. Other than this the TV performs awesome! Yes, I would recommend buying this TV but I would also say that if you can afford spending an additional $2k it would be worth it to jump to the 940D. If not you'll still be very happy and impressed with this one.

Replaced a 2004 40 inch LCD TV with this 75 inch Sony 4K HDR TV. You can imagine the difference...amazing picture and sound in comparison. This model is from 2016, just hit the floors after debuting at CES and I could not be happier. Movies look great and automatically get upgraded visually. I've heard it's hard for a TV to look great showing live sports AND movies. I don't know about that, I just know I made a good choice for the next several years. Voice control on some of the apps via Android TV is fun. 4k stuff is expanding and the few things we have watched are spectacular. This TV is also capable of updating itself and is HDR ready for whatever comes down the road the next few years. Bought this TV also to use with my new PS 4 Pro, together they are awesome. I have had so many compliments on this TV and the quality that Sony has. Netflix and Hulu streaming services look FANTASTIC. I hooked it up to my Harman/Kardon surround sound speaker system and it's just a like a movie theater but at my house. LOVE playing all my various games systems on this television. The picture is "AMAZING". There's 4K, and there's Sony 4K HDR.I also looked at a Samsung equivalent, but all in all Sony's TV's are much better in picture quality. Still exploring the options, but my first month report card for this TV is a solid "A+"

We walked into Best Buy, knowing we wanted a 65"+ TV, and wanted to be int he $1000 to $1500 range. However once we started comparing and looking at different TVs, we ended up splurging on a 75" and about $1000 more than we wanted. We LOVE this TV and new setup. We sit around 20' away from our TV so bigger the better. Picture quality is amazing, dark darks and bright brights. I had a concern as our ATT&T does not broadcast anything in 4K, but the TV still does an amazing job at upscaling lesser resolutions (i.e. no distortion). Highly recommended. The picture included of our setup does not do the size of the TV justice. We have tower Klipsch Legend Series speakers that are monsters and make the TV look small in relation.

Geek Squad did an amazing job installing and was very professional and neat. The TV is amazing with great picture and blows playing my PS4 out of the water with amazing resolution. One thing I did notice and will be calling the geek squad about is when there is a darker scene or not enough light in the room the corners have like a grey bleeding to it. Other than that the TV is phenomenal

My son recommended this TV to me. He had researched it for his own recent purchase of the 65" version. So when it came tome for me to buy a new TV, he told me the Sony had the best reviews for picture quality. I took his advise and I'm glad I did. The picture quality and vivid colors are wonderful. I am really enjoying it and would highly recommend it to anyone!

I know there are a ton of options on 4K Tv's but I can tell you that I am very happy with my Sony XBR 75" 4K with HDR. I love the picture and sound quality. I find myself watching shows I would never watch on Netflix just to sample the 4K picture. I know there are some tv's that are a little less expensive but Sony hit a home run on this one.

The tv was awesome because of the fact that it was 75" the only draw back is the picture isn't as great as my 50" Samsung, also takes a while to log onto Netflix, for the price would definitely recommend
