- We review the impact of firmware update 6.0414 on the Sony XH90 (also marketed as the BRAVIA X900H in the USA) on the 4K@120Hz blur issue, as well as use two Sony PS5 consoles and two copies of DiRT 5 to see how this affects 4K 120Hz HDMI 2.1 gaming.
Our 55-inch retail units (model number KD-55XH9005) were bought from Richer Sounds Manchester:

Wow, such dedication is found only in a few channels. The fact that you went out to get two Playstations for the sake of this video shows that. As an owner of an x900h, I appreciate the regular high-quality updates from this channel.

Thank you for doing this.
It's really starting tick me off that I had the option to buy the Samsung Q80 but went for this one because all of the claims Sony made about HDMI 2.1 on this model. And so far I truly do regret buying the 900H over the Q80. Sony deserves a class action lawsuit if they don't either fix this by next month or offer customers who purchased it an option to get next years model at a discount. It's a good TV but it's frustrating not be able to use it for the reason I bought it.
Q80T is flawed as hell too.
It’s not the tv in particular man, all TVs are having problems with hdmi 2.1
@@zero082294 Honestly, maybe we should all wait until HDMI 2.1 TVs are great which will take a few years because this is Sonys first attempt at HDMI 2.1. The same can be said for a nearly every other TV manufacturer. This reminds me of The Samsung fold 1 which was shit but the samsung fold 2 is great. Early adopters of tech are treated as Guinea pigs.
Actually the only tvs not having any issues at all are lg's oled lineup and thier nanocell tv lineup, i have nanocell90 and it has has zero issues at 120hz and its motion handling is insane.
@@CSDiz96 LG's have tons of issues lmao. CX just had its hdr game mode brightness ruined, Nanocells issue is the picture is dreadful.
So, nobody at Sony ran some test patterns at 4K120 before releasing the TV? :-)

Is that confirmed?

@@saputrasaputra3347 its not that, its blury on pc also, i had the tv and returned it... text was unreadable, basically when you upscale 1080p to 4k was better than "native" 4k@120hz (60 was fine).
What a legend. No one "comes" close to Vincent. Love the humour
Please post X900H settings for Movies and TV Shows!
I use the TV with my PS5 Hdmi 2.1. The games all run smoothly on 120hz 4K and 60HZ 4K. I'm sitting about 2 / 2.5 meters in front of the TV. The graphics are great and I am very happy with the TV.I've been playing Cold War at 120. Nothing is blurry with me.
You saying that a TV that (currently) lacks VRR is playing a game that averages 90-110 fps in 120hz mode and if the tearing isn't noticable then why are we even bothering caring about VRR - and not just all buying anything that is 4K 120Hz compatible regardless of promised VRR or not ? If 4K@120hz is "good enough" ?
X900H owners are still waiting on Sony to bring VRR support
The reason I bought the X900H was that I don't have space for a TV and a monitor in my bedroom and I wanted to get the full experience of watching 4K UHD BluRay movies on the same TV that I could use for 1440P gaming @120HZ with VRR. So far the latter has been a miss. Sony is making me regret buying the X900H instead of buying a gaming monitor and a cheaper/bigger TCL to put in another room for movies.
Fuck my beautiful broken Bravia
@@keithwilliams2353 btw both P S5 and Xbox series X offer no Bluray Dolby Vision support
@@mrwalker6026 Lucky for me that I only play games on PC, so I have a dedicated 4K BluRay player. I get that most people bought the X900H explicitly for the new consoles though...
Do the new consoles support HDR10 or HDR10+?
@@keithwilliams2353 Does the 900h even support 1440p 120hz?

Hey Vincent - thank you so much for this and your dedication!
I bought the TV last week. I still like it.
Thanks for the vid!
Me too. Impressed with the whole package - I thought android was supposed to be laggy??? I've not updated the fw yet though, wont be picking up the xbox until about easter time.
@@creepymcfeel yup! I'm waiting until all of the "launch issues" have been ironed out before getting the XBSX.
@@creepymcfeel I updated the firmware last Friday. I know the update came in phases.
Is yours set to "Automatically check for update"?
It's set to automatically check alright as it prompts to do the install at every startup, I keep cancelling though
You're kidding?
I'd immediately take it back.
People like you are the problem.
The best man in the game. I appreciate your work and i hope you became more followers und likes.
Why is it that Sony with all its resources, release products with deficiencies that their Engineers don't/can't notice or fix prior to the general public inspecting their products????
So I had the Sony x900e 55 inch and I sold it and bought the 65 inch sony x900h. All I can say is there's quite a noticeable difference and I am very happy with this TV. I loved the somy x900e as well. Im not sure why quantum tv you tube channel or whatever his name is bashes on the TV. This thing is awesome and especially for games. Super smooth
This is a great academic discussion and I appreciate you digging into it. But no consumer anywhere would ever see this. But the display should not be the limiting factor and I'm grateful you're putting Sony's feet to the fire on a hardware issue.
Please more videos on this TV and best picture settings. Also, how well the light sensor serves
got mine for 900 €, 65 inches. For that money its a great TV
I paid like 1.1k reduced from 1.4 and one month later it was reduced further to like 900 as u say 😒
@@DaveTheFuckingBrave 1.1 k is also a great price for that TV, imo.
schranzmaster90 thanks for the kind words 🤗 you’re not wrong. For a comparable TV from a different brand (Samsung or LG) you’d probably have to pay around 1.5k at least
Thank you for this interesting video. I have this TV and I'm going to stick with it. I anticipated that there might be problems with the newest hdmi features. This is not the best time to buy a TV but I needed one. Very interesting to see that quality was lowered to fulfill 120hz. I suspect that there will be many games where 4k60hz will be the best combination of quality and performance
Same. Its a good tv but since it doesnt do what it advertises it s kind of bad
I haven't really noticed any blurriness that would make me get a refund. I love my X900H. Input lag was a huge issue with my PS4 PRO, but it is practically non-existent on the PS5. It disappears at 4k120.
.... There is no reason your ps4 pro would have input lag but the ps5 doesn't....
Could you make a video explaining why you don't think firmware can resolve the issue with the 4k blurriness? At least with my understanding of the issue it's pretty clearly a processing issue, we know the hdmi port can send the correct amount of information required for 4k 120 and we know the processor is strong enough to do 4k 120 so why do you think sony won't be able to fix it with firmware? I think it would make a pretty good video.
Bump
Good point
bump
Agree
Might be just the panel?
Sir, you provide absolutely fantastic and objective analysis 🧐 of TV technology. Love to watch these uploads.
Thanks Vincent. I think it would nice if you made the same test but with one X900H and for example LG CX so people can decide if its really the blur is a big issue or not
Very good idea!
Does the cx have this issue at 120hz and ps5?
Thank you for everything you're doing ... even though you only have two hands ^ _ ^
I love my Sony xh90! Bought it due to your tests.
What a waste. Watching his tests but still buying an inferior model🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
@@TheGohthecrow why is it inferior? It's a very good tv, especially for its price. But it has some (minor) issues which most of them will be ironed out true firmware updates. Still, overall its more than good enough for most users.
@@TheGohthecrow with this price and quality this tv is actually for free so I think it was best pick for me.
Love mine too. Great picture quality for 4k HDR movie. Don't have a ps5 yet, but ps4 games (MHW and FF7r) looks stunning on it.
Despite its flaws, it's still a great tv for movies and gaming. Anything below x900h's price point is inferior (at least while the 65in was on sale for a grand). For $400 more, yeah, there's other, better options - but you'd probably have to settle for a 55in OLED to top it. That's approx 40% more expensive any way you look at it. And, once you look to oled, you're bound to get a 2 or 5 yr extended warranty; so tack on another 250 - 400.
Thanks for the effort Vincent! You are mad, mate :) You could've filmed in sequence using one ps5 and one tv, film on older firmware, upgrade, film again and put them side by side in video editor.
That's cheating.

Do you not understand? He goes in all the way. Hard.
@@nitemare3904 lmao
In my opinion, it doesn't matter whether you will notice it or not when gaming. We have to look at the main issue here.
If a tv is being advertised as having a 4K120hz option it should be able to show an image looking just as sharp as the 4K60hz mode. Otherwise this is false advertising and this should never be acceptable!
Thanks for the great breakdown. Just the info I needed. I clearly fall in the camp that can accept some compromise. Ideal? Obviously not. But it is what it is. I'll be enjoying my TV ... I will leave the others to pin their noses to the screen scanning for bluriness.
Vincent, thanks for the info, its good to know that but... my question is... HOW DID YOU GET TWO PS5s ?! :)
Had to pull some strings.

@@hdtvtest I hope they weren't sharp
I got two lmaooo
@@allofasutton_ I had ten. Got another 5 on the last drop. Putting them up for sale. Profiting so when an actual perfect 4k 120hz sony screen drops. I'm staying on last gen 4k 60hz for now
Sony really pissed me off with these poor updates. It’s got to the point where everyone should get together and hire a lawyer to sue them for false advertising. People bought this TV based on everything that was supposed to come with the future updates to it’s HDMI 2.1. But they did a half ass job with their updates to this point. If I would have know this is how it was going to be I would have went with the LG CX, or Samsung’s Q80T, or Q90T.
Agree! I’d be in to pitch in for legal counsel to fight this.
Totally agree, companies should be made legally responsible for something like that, this is basically false advertising. Makes You wonder when, if at all this tv will get all promised features.
You can already update your TV to firmware 6.0429 via Sony’s support site. You can only update your tv via a USB now.
Thank you for the information Vincent! I game on console and haven’t noticed this issue create much of a problem for me. Regardless, it is important to understand what this tv is actually capable of. I appreciate your hard work and transparency!
Thank you for your in depth analyses. Helped me to understand why my XH90 looked so bad in 4k120hz.
I know this video is fake, because no one has TWO PS5s!
Just kidding, thanks for the update on this :)

🤣
Haha yeah he just went out and got one
I'm picking up my second PS5 from bestbuy on Monday :). Not reselling though, at least not for more than it is worth. I'm doing a friend a favor who could not stay glued to the website when they went live.
Im guessing you've never seen the man with five PS5's
Love how thorough this was. Thanks for making this video, few content creators go so far out of their way to give detailed comparisons like this.
You are the best on youtube at what you do. Thank you for providing such accurate content.
Great video, 4k @120hz on consoles was always a sham idea, just not enough power to do it worth doing it IMHO.
My hopes are high on the next firmware update. After all I did go all in... hard :(
That bell + innuendos, cant help but chuckle.
10:45 Excellent independent review skills! 🇨🇳🤐🇨🇳 Let's hope Sony doesn't shack up with TH-cam to start sensoring your content..

@@ArtVandelayOfficial he deserves every cent the man is fire!
Just cancelled my order. Thank you for keeping it simple to understand, was buying purely for 4k/120 so I've just dodged a bullet.
So basically we should wait for x900i in 2021
Will there be one?
Thankyou so much for this video. U just saved me $2495 in Australia. I shall be waiting for the 2021 Line up
Great review. Thank you Vincent. 🇵🇱
Thank you for another great video. I think I'm just going to keep my X900 at 60fps. I really noticed the flickering or is it shimmering in the text in a couple of games but didn't understand why it was there.
Now all we need is the VRR support to get rid of screen tearing. As I'm still getting that even in performance mode on the Xbox version of AC Valhalla.
I just wish Sony would fix their wifi dropping issue on that tv...
Fingers crossed but i haven't had that problem at all n i run iptv almost all day on it
Same issue with the x950h. Really annoying.
use ethernet
I have the same issue. Very annoying. Have to unplug and replug to solve the issue everytime.
@@KINGBARBOZA Ethernet is capped to 100mbps... while I get 150-180mbps on AC wifi.
Totally don’t regret returning this TV before I got my PS5 shipped. I really wanted to like it, it’s got a lot of good features and black levels are pretty great for an LED TV. BUT....the 120hz gaming would bother the hell out of me. If I’m buying a TV for a grand, it better be amazing.
Unfortunately, that price point usually comes with some sacrifices being what makers consider to be a mid-range budget. In time we will see better and better sets, but for the moment I’ll commend Sony for putting out one of the first sets to offer quite this much as this price point anyway. I’ll upgrade when the tech becomes more commonplace and manufacturing gets 4K @120 fully fleshed out. And that QDOLED thing becomes more affordable.
I would be interested to know how this looks legally. In my opinion, Sony has not fulfilled the purchase contract. I'll wait and see when the first lawsuits are filed.
So funny, no one is getting any money back off Sony. American?
Thanks a lot for your dedication to offering the best professional analysis!
I am going to buy XH9505 in Europe as you truly pointed the issue with the in-game resolution downgrading when forcing the console to run at 4K@120Hz. Hence skipping the HDMI 2.1 altogether! :)
Another outstanding video. Thank you.
man vincent youre the best "go in hard". The comittment youre putting yourself through to get to the bottom of this is truly admirable
If ultimately this can't do it, Sony should be taking these TV's back and offering a full refund based on False Advertisement. I hope they fix this but I bought this TV with the promise of chroma 4:4:4 4k@120hz. Its even a nightmare to get a 3070 to connect properly. Whats worse is my tv is passed the return period and its such trash. I don't mind giving Sony time to fix it but if they can't, take the damn TV back or update it and issue a free replacement.
To anyone's question. . this TV also is blurry at 100Hz on RGB or Ycbcr444 at 8bit - 12bit. It fails on every level at this point above 60hz. Unbelievable.
This is on a 90h / 900h 65".
Great video. I have a Sony x900h but no ps5 yet. So no hurry for a fix, but I still hope they can do it onde day. It's such a great tv and it can't keep having this issue. Sad if it does
Same bro! I just bought the 65 inch n I currently have a Ps4 pro which delivers 4k HDR at 60hz! It looks amazing! Ps5 just came out n even the game developers have said that it will take them at least a couple of years to actually take advantage of the 4k 120hz capability! Most games will be limited to 4k 60hz in the foreseeable future this means! So, it don't really matter at all if you think bout it! 🙏🙌
It won’t be fixed. Sad reality for us X900H owners. Hopefully I’ll eat my words. Fuck you @sony
@@MrImzzz exactly. I'll take advantages from HDMI 2.1 using eArc. Other benefits still ok. Hardly would use any 4k120 source anyway. Maybe on some ps5pro later.
@SeanJ2A I'm very happy with my Sony. I'm in Brazil and other tvs like Samsung Q80t 65' is much more expensive than this one. Oled even more. I'll keep mine until next Gen ( 7 years minimum)
I use 4k@120hz on call of duty multiplayer fast paced dont notice the blur, worth it for the smoothness
I had seen something going around message boards right before the PS5’s release saying that the X900H had “motion-blur issues” in 120Hz mode.
And I couldn’t figure out (at the time) if it was trolling or if these were actual complaints.
Ultimately, it made me decide to hold off on purchasing the X900H right now.
Now, I’m kinda glad to see that my skepticism wasn’t unwarranted and with a little patience, they actually seem to have somewhat fixed this issue with the newest firmware?
I was undecided between buying a x950h for better PQ or a x900h for the hdmi 2.1. I'm glad that i chose the X950h :D
Thanks for all your videos Vincent !
Thanks for this review Vincent. I purchased the 65 inch version a few days ago based on amazing reviews. Overall, I am pleased with the tv although I have experienced a couple of issues which you may be able to comment on. 1. When trying to mirror from my macbook the screen just goes blank (it works fine mirroring an iphone) and transmitting via youtube app works fine. 2) I have not been lucky enough to find a ps5 console so tried an old ps2 (i know, I want to get back into gaming :)) you see the screen some of the time but when it comes to playing a game it goes blank (tried on hdmi 4 and 1). After watching your review I felt confident that I must still be running old firmware so was dismayed to see I was indeed running version 6.0414..... I would really appreciate your comments! Many Thanks!
Talk about the eArc problems with this tv where it often won't send any sound until you do a reset on the TV
I was having the same problem with mine. I upgraded the firmware then factory defaulted the tv. That fixed it for me.
You are amazing Vincent, way to go the extra 1,000 miles!
I bought this tv because of Vincent review....

Any chance for another update to fully fix this issue as well as finally adding VRR? Or tv processor is too weak for that?
Vrr is added with an update or two ago.... will this fix it? Going to buy The ps5 this week
got mine updated yesterday. I gaming on pc at 4k 120hz res, it is still blurry and the true resolution is more like 2k or even lower. its the chip defect and it cannot be fixed via patches. I hv ordered 65x90j already to get the corrected 4k120, sad story.

X900h
Honestly I can't tell the difference between 60hz and 120hz with Dirt 5 through my 9000h.
I've tried both numerous times, but I've never been able to notice any advantage at 120hz so now I just play it at 60hz because of the improved resolution and ray tracing.
Make sure HDMI 2.1 inputs 3 or 4 are used and they are switched to enhanced in the TV Menu! I can definitely tell the difference now and prefer 120 mode! Once you get used to it it’s hard to go back to 60 lol
Out of curiousity, what does the text look like from the 3090 with YUV 422/444? The same/worse versus RGB 444? Just wondering if there is different processing.
When i connecting my ps5 to XH90 via hdmi 3 enhanced format i dont have a sound at all! Need to restart tv or soft reset. When i switch to enhanced format dolby vision sound go back but in ps5 menu is said YUV 422 instead of RGB. Cable hdmi 2.1. I dont know what the difirence is at all...
Would have been interesting if you had done Dirt 5 PC with 120hz with your RTX 3090 to see if visuals were still downgraded at 4K.I never did believe the hype that PS5 OR XBOX could run full visuals at 4k, 120hz , with the latest AAA titles, even a RTX 3090 would struggle in certain games.
You all understand that none of these televisions are perfect. You can take it back get a different one. Then find flaws with it too. They all have hiccups. Whether it’s the operating system. Or Burn in, whatever the case. I’ll bet Sony will fix it. But Maybe not. But it’s new tech. Across the board. There are gonna be imperfections with any of it.
Actually it seems Sony cannot fix this. The fact that they applied a filter instead of native is so backwards.
You're right there is no such thing as perfect tv.
@@18matts What is a native?
There is a difference between a flaw and misleading people by promising them something that did not work and never will work. Netflix needing to be reinstalled because it crashes when opening is a flaw. Marketing that your TV will be able to do something in the future to get better sells is INTENTIONAL. I bought this TV for HDMI 2.1 and if HDMI 2.1 does not work it makes me feel robbed.
@@Chris-hh8qc same feeling here. i bought as they mentioned it will support 4k 120hz. i guess it does support but just blurry :(
If you can get a second Xbox series x, and force 120hz on one then there would be no change in the game resolution or quality when using any game in it's resolution/quality mode at 60fps.

Yeah same happens to me on ps5. Sound sometimes cuts out for a few seconds. Also sometimes it randomly changes audio back to tv speakers. This never happened with my onkyo receiver on same tv. Kind of annoying as I spent a lot of money on it and you would think sony products would work better together.
@@T2DARLANTANAH they need to fix it...
As an average consumer, I have no clue what you are talking about loooool, and I respect that intelligent people like yourself are holding these manufacturers accountable, regarding my experience with this TV, I honestly do not know and can not tell the difference between either of the PS5's! All I know is COD Cold War looks awesome and the colors pop!
Great video HDTVTest
you should be testing this with a powerful computer instead
He said with a pc it will be even more obvious
We should file in a collective complaint to Sony on this. I mean really. Promising 4K 120 HDR and delivering like 70% of the pixels needed to be 4K.
This guy just bought another ps5 like its so easy as buying new underwear xD
Looks the same to me doesn't look like they will be able to fix it with software update. Hardware limitation.
Well done! "i only have 2 hands" lol 🤣 Now tell me how you got your 2nd PS5 Viiinnnceennnnnttt???? 👀
I bet he still has 2 kidneys too, now his neighbour I am not sure about, someone should probably check on them.
@stryfetc1 . TVs I get, but PS5s... And 2 of them and he's not showing off the product.
@@robertt9342 🤣
@stryfetc1 I would think so, but he said Sony failed to notice the channel as "worthy" of sending him one, i was just giving him a hard time lol...
@stryfetc1 🤣
I was asking u for checking out the new firmwire update in 2 of your older videos and u bought a new x900h and delivered :) Thank you VInny keep up the good work :) I will try out my TV with this update today and my new RTX 3090 to see if other herz figured work better like restricting the 3090 to 75 herz or 90 herz or 100 herz...
@HDTVTest You can now buy another Xbox series X and try "Ori and the Will of the Wisps" at 120Hz, which is true 4K!
Lol... we're out of funds now.
@@hdtvtest 😂
@@hdtvtest I believe Fortnite received a 120hz update as well which is a free game. Not sure if it is native 2160p though.
Great video! What I can't seem to wrap my head around is wether this blur occurs with gaming or if it is still present when viewing 4k content in 120hz in general. If someone could clarify this for we I would appreciate it!
Again, great video and a great channel!
same here, interested about it as well
text on windows 10 at 120hz is blurry. not at 60hz. sadly
As we go fwds all games will show 120 is a compromise. 4K 60 is the real target and likely best experience.
checkerboarded 1080-1440p 60 to 4K 60 on ps5/ xsx yeah
Shouldn't be a compromise when it comes to PC for 4K120fps.
Only racing games and platformers could achieve 4k@120
@@griffindinho5109 even racing games are 1080p 120hz , you can see digital foudry review on it
Even 4k 60 is not possible without compromise.if 60fps is the target then sweet spot for next gen consoles would be somewhere between 1080p 60 and 1440p 60.
I smell a class action lawsuit against Sony because of this TV, I bought this set to use at 120Hz @ 4K and while most things aren't really noticeable some things tend to stand out. It personally doesn't bother me much, but I can see a ton of people being pissed about it
Every class action Ive joined saw me get a coupon or literally a few bucks. Only lawyers seem to win anything significant.
