our samsung Q60 stopped working after 28 months, the tech came out,tested and said the screen is bad,screen was black and tv was doing the on/off cycle. thank goodness for extended warranty. Took a month of going back and forth with samsung. Now just trying to decide between x80k sony or the 90k. I think for just evening movie watching the x80k will be good
X80k now supports 4k 120hz. I don't know if they updated the tv or if it's only on certain sizes, but I just bought the 85" x80k and it says it has 4k 120hz in the manual as well as labeled on hdmi 3 and 4 on the back of the tv. I tested it with a ps5 as well as laptop, and it works.
Hi Steve, Thank you for making these videos. They are very informative. I am having hard time deciding between Samsung 85” Q60B vs Sony 85” X80K. For some reason the other websites like rtings and reviewed have their results other way around. As per their tests Samsung ended up winning in darkroom and daylight setting. Do you think Samsung yields much better quality with their smart calibration feature? Please advise.
I actually purchased both of these TV’s and I will say if you like punchy saturated colors, I’ll chose the Q60B. Keep in mind they are a bit over saturated but I don’t mind it. The Sony X80 wasn’t soo bad either. The only reason I returned the Sony was because I had a bad panel. Dirty screen effect. But I actually returned both TV and got myself a Sony A80K OLED.
@@goddamnadam623 colors on Samsung TVs look horrible. Not even close to the tuning Sony does. Even when oversaturated Samsung makes everything look like so weird, kinda fake, off the mark. While on Sony everything is as what it is supposed to look like.
I just got the x80k as a bedroom tv. I use a c1 for the living room and got used to those inky blacks. Didn’t want to spend too much though considering it’s just a bedroom tv. With that said, would you consider the lgqned80 worth it over the Sony? I know the lg has 120hz compared to the Sony, which is what my c1 has
Get the sony or if you can. You can get an lg a2 oled right now for 650 since your used to web os that's what I think you should get as you get the blacks you want
I have both of these TVs the Samsung 85 in the living room and the Sony 85 in the bedroom and I gota say I like the picture better on the Samsung. I'd say there pretty close but again I think the Samsung edges it out. Great video
Glad I stumbled upon this video. I’m in the market for a budget tv for a guest bedroom as my older lg47le5400-uc suddenly stopped playing audio. Idk if it’s worth contacting a repair person to charge the amount of a budget tv. I’ll put it in my garage.

Q60b has issues with shadows and dark scene's. There's lots of pixels . Sony x80k is only £200 or so cheaper than an oled , it would be better to spend the cash on an oled panel instead.
Bro is it better to go with qned 81 or sony x80k... Which have good blacks In my area sony is selling like hot cakes and no one buy qned.. Both almost same price What do you say.. ?
Thank you for the video. I am just wondering if vertical viewing angle will be an issue cuz I can only place my TV above a fire place. On my 10 year old TV wwhen I stand up it's fine but sitting down it gets really bad.

youre saying the x80k's better because the blacks are bad on the samsung but you didnt mention all the other x80k's besides the 50" are ips and are as bad as the samsung

@@TechSteve I definitely like your work a lot, I know it can be exhausting and you always want to do your best, I definitely appreciate your contributions, and you can't imagine how much you have helped me evaluate my purchase decision, so much so that I have been for more than 4 months without main tv just watching and watching videos, of them I had my top 5 according to what I need and my budget and in this week of offers my decision was inclined by the option of deferred payments so I did not have to pay everything my savings. After several months without a TV, my wife and children just told me make up your mind, one day when my 9-year-old son asked him which TV he saw best, comparing an LG and a Samsung, he answered me very seriously: "daddy, no you're going to find perfect tv", so I had to rush.

@@TechSteve can you do a review for x80k with an IPS panel, because in other parts of the world it doesn't come with VA 😞 do you recommend buying it even if it's IPS not VA?
Why spend 700$ on a med grade tv -at best right now - when you could spend around 900$ on a flagship status quality tv in the mini led Hisense U8H? It blows these TVs out of the water! Big time. For only 200-300$ more. It’s a no brainer people. Hisense is killing it right now for the value. Put it right up next to the Samsung s95b or LG C2 and it’ll do just fine. Hangs with them no problem. Don’t over pay for a name! Your welcome. 🎤 drop
Though this is true. I have a Hisense U7G and it absolutely has to be the best LED tv I’ve ever owned. Setting it up next to my A80K OLED, it’s neck and neck! The ONLY thing I hate about it is it’s motion handling. Too much juddering/studder with panning shots. If Hisense can resolve this particular issue with their processing, they will be on top of the TV world.
@@goddamnadam623 to be honest buddy I think they did with this years line up. motion seems good! Especially on the U8H my in law got and my brother got the U7H. Both these TVs are great values but the U8H is on another level bro!
I bought the Sony and then I turned it back in and bought the Samsung because I couldn't mirror my cell phone to the Sony. And I do a lot of mirroring because I don't have a ISP.
What phone do you have? I have no issues mirroring my phone to my X80K. Like Steve mentioned, try wifi direct. Or even Chromecast, Amazon TV Fire Stick, or Roku to mirror.
@@SonyEnthusiast my phone plan with T-Mobile is one where I get unlimited data. I get about 20 GB of Internet or hotspot. That hotspot provides very little time to watch movies. So I use the data part. I think what you and Steve are talking about is being able to hook up to the Internet with Wi-Fi. I don't do that. I just hook up with my data connection. I don't have an internet service provider like Cox or Infinity. And my ability to hook up to the internet with my T-Mobile service is limited. I think we're talking about the same thing data connection and internet connection. Internet connection requires Wi-Fi hotspot. Data connection does not.

@Siddharth I checked the sony website. Sadly it's only the 85".
3:27 , 4:42 ... Omg ...
What great difference ... perhaps due to direct led vs edge lit tvs ... Both va ...
Amazing...
Blooming is the result of high brightness not being properly controlled by local dimming zones, and that's why tvs like the Sony x90k bloom.
I've had the q60b and wasn't impressed with the picture quality too many blocky pixels and compression issues. I got the x85k and it's much better.
Are the black levels good? And is It super reflective or somewhat reflective but watchable during the day time?

Too much brightness affect tv
& I had Sony X80 after 2.5 years tv panel got damaged & Then I bought Q60B it's great
Thank for the info. & update.
Q60b has issues with shadows and dark scene's. There's lots of pixels .
Sony x80k is only £200 or so cheaper than an oled , it would be better to spend the cash on an oled panel instead.
I wish I could trade my Samsung tu7000 for a Sony X80K
Why
Doesn't have enough HDMI inputs and no Dolby vision.
Hey steve , what do you think of difference between x80k and x80j in picture quality and the colours
I'm looking at a 85" Sony X80CK for $1300 in Feb 2024 at Costco. Is this the same model as the X80K?

Q60b or 65b
Can you please do a X85k vs Q60B comparison
X80k better lighting and processing 👀.
Sony it is!
Which would you recommend for heavy sports watching? Do either have a more favorable refresh rate?
The Samsungs has rock solid motion for sure

Sony picture is better. The only downside is the viewing angle. Plus Sony is pwr free
