@trevors98 Both are good options. The A80L will give you better contrast and deeper blacks, but the X93L will be brighter and more vibrant.

How is the picture quality with a streaming service such as TH-cam TV, which tends to compress their signal feed? How does it handle sports like football, auto racing and hockey? Thanks.
@Mr.Martini549 The X93L picture looks great no matter what you're watching. It does an amazing job upscaling less than ideal pictures, and it's motion handling has no problems keeping up with fast paced sports like the ones you mentioned. If you're thinking about adding one to your home theater be sure to give our TV experts a call at 800-860-3736. They can even tell you about any promotions we have running that can't be advertised online.
The 93L looks fantastic, I'm thinking of buying this over the Samsung 90C. HOWEVER, I'm seriously concerned the Sony will stick out from the wall too far. It is over 2" thick whereas the Samsung is 1.1" thick. What do you think? Am I overconcerned about thickness? I'm planning on getting an untraslim mount (1.1") .
@scott3715 It really depends on the effect you're going for. We wall mount lots of X93Ls at customer's homes and haven't had any complaints about them sticking out too far. However, if you're putting it in an area where it absolutely needs to be close to the wall due to space limitations, the Samsung is still an amazing option. If you need any assistance figuring out which might work best for you be sure to give our experts a call. They'll be able to help you find the right model for your space and budget. Plus they can tell you about any promotions we have going on that can't be advertised online.
It's the same exact tv with a different name "X93L" instead of "X95K." The only mini led that's better this year from sony is the X95L, but they will only do it in 85 inch for the usa.
@CRinJersey It really depends on what your priorities are. Picture wise, the QN90C and the X93L are tops. If you're a gamer with more than one next gen console the Samsung has 4 HDMI 2.1 inputs, the Sony's only have 2. If you're trying to stay in a budget, the X90L is an amazing value, still full array, just not Mini LED backlit. If you want to hear more about any of these three be sure to contact our TV experts at 800-860-3736. They can also tell you about any promotions that can't be advertised online.
@@abtelectronics thank you for the reply! Only need the two 2.1 ports, so I’m ok there. My main concern is how they look streaming real content. On the store demo content they all look great.Thanks again for the response
@CRinJersey We thought they both handled streaming content well. If you live in the Chicagoland area be sure to swing by our store. We can demonstrate some streaming content for you on each of them.
@app1mxh They're both great TVs. The QNED99 can display 8K as a maximum resolution and the Sony X93L is a 4K TV, so it's not a completely even comparison. If 8K is a priority for you we'd say go with the LG, otherwise the Sony is a fantastic choice.

@patrickcotter5629 The X90L hasn't arrived at our store yet so we haven't seen them side by side, but the X93L uses mini LEDs and the X90L uses standard LEDs for the backlighting. The X93L is incredible, but we imagine the X90L will still offer a great picture. The X90L is supposed to be arriving in a couple weeks so we'll hopefully have a video soon. Stay tuned!
Are these Sony's led panel is very durable like Samsung, Sony's panel after 0ne year has color fainted issues on corners I ve heard from Sony users, Can you please verify or experience about this issue I want to know before buying Sony new X95Lor X95 K 75 inch panel - Thank You
@ThamilNesan We haven't had any feedback from our customers on this issue so it does not seem to be a problem for the models we've sold. But we're also an authorized Sony dealer so if there is a problem within the first year it will be covered.
The X90L has the new XR Clear, the X93L does not. Based on all the youtube videos, the x93 still has a better picture due to being brighter, better local dimming and MUCH better off viewing angles. Go see the X93 vs X95 video comparison, they are VERY close.
@MSDOGS1976 Because it's backlit by mini LEDs there is going to be some blooming. That's the case with any TV backlit with LED. It all depends on how critical a reviewer wants to be. We didn't find it to be anything out of the ordinary and the picture quality is amazing overall. If you don't want any light bloom the only real option would be to go with an OLED.
@@abtelectronics A little off topic but what source do you guys use to view a product? TH-cam tv, Sling etc? I’ve tried them all but recently I switched to Direct tv Stream using their Gemini box. And I set it on HDR as they recommended and I am amazed how much better everything looks. I tried HDR when using Roku with YTTV and it was not good at all. It’s amazing the impact what streaming source and device has on the quality of the picture. It’s not always just the tv itself.
Really useful video. Is OLED for a bright room a definite NO ? Is the OLED panel more susceptible for damage from sunlight compared to LED ? Looking for a living room TV
@naveenmohanraj4400 Not at all. You can still use OLED in a pretty bright room. It wouldn't be any more susceptible to sunlight damage than an LED backlit TV, which is highly unlikely to occur. The X93L is a fantastic TV to use in a living room setup! Be sure to contact our TV experts to hear about any promotions we can't advertise online: 800-860-3736 or www.abt.com/help/contact-us
Sony screwed us over this year. Why does the X95L only come in 85 inch? What a crock. Sony makes nice tvs but who ever makes decisions about their line up needs to be fired and then shot. Even the little things, like the design of their tv stands, are usually stupid. It's almost like they purposely want to sell as few tvs as possible.
Hehe. Funny. There is some truth in your comment. Their pedestals and sizes/models are not well thought out. Also, atm with Hisense/TCL low TV prices, they are a bit 2 expensive.
@dedeviI Those are both great options so it really comes down to which operating system you prefer.

The X93L is still a worthy TV even if it's a revamped X95K. The Sony processing alone is a plus.
The funny thing is people take the X95K as if it’s a Mediocre TV. Some people even believe the Z9D is still better than it 😂
