it's weird seeing a premium LG product more expensive than a Sony, but in this case, the Sony is missing A LOT of features that are present on the CX.
Is there a TV out that is not obsessed with 4K at 120fps?
I am looking for something that delivers good HDR, VRR with low input lag outputting at 4K 60fps, is there anything that meets my criteria?
This gaming generation is probably one too early in regards to 120fps so that is the reason I do not care for that high frame rate.

VRR comes with HDMI 2.1, which also carries 4K at 120. You're unlikely to find a TV that does one but not the other.

For a PS5, which would be more ideal?
Take into account that the X900H just received their HDMI 2.1 update for 4K120fps gaming.

By Eternity Go To Posthttps://www.rtings.com/tv/tools/compare/samsung-q80r-vs-sony-x900h/807/12284Always go for the one with the higher numbers.

Throw in the Q80T as well as an option

Are 8KTVs worth it? I thought I saw a video once saying that although there is barely 4K content let alone 8K, that it upscales well
By aka Espi Go To PostAre 8KTVs worth it? I thought I saw a video once saying that although there is barely 4K content let alone 8K, that it upscales well
From a content perspective, nope. Although some have some really good AI upscaling to make 4K content look that much better.
My brother briefly considered the above two models before coming to his senses and landing a C9.
Between the two I'd go with the Sony, especially now that HDMI 2.1 is enabled and by all accounts working as intended. From what I remember the X900H has considerably better local dimming / blooming control and then there's Dolby Vision. That's enough to win me over.

The brighter a TV can get the less important Dolby Vision is. Some of the top end Samsung's can get really bright.
With that said, it's the principle for me. If I'm paying hundreds or thousands, I want what is quickly becoming a standard in the streaming world.

By Smokey Go To PostThe brighter a TV can get the less important Dolby Vision is. Some of the top end Samsung's can get really bright.This feels like a misunderstanding of what dolby vision does? I suppose you could say that you're mapping the total range of the movie to a much higher range overall, but I still think the per scene tone mapping in Vision is important regardless

I'm talking about in a high end LED set which can get super bright, the noticeable difference between it and HDR10 becomes less obvious. I worded my initial post in a bad way. There's some articles / videos out there that explain why, ill have to find them when I get a second.
By Zabojnik Go To PostMy brother briefly considered the above two models before coming to his senses and landing a C9.CX owner here and by all accounts the Sony looks like a great buy if the LG OLED is not in your budget.

Chiefs/Bills game is in 4k via the Fox Sports App. Looks very clean on the 77" CX. We need this to become the norm.
no. there's stuff here and there. i think the masters is in 4k. espn did like 6 college football games last year .
By DiPro Go To Post4k sports not the norm yet in america?I don't think even 1080p is the norm, tbh. You typically get either 1080i or 720p.
Ya that's all we get in the UK bar a handful of games on extremely expensive premium channels. It's properly shite.
someone had asked about a samsung tv vs the sony x900h
skip to 6:36 for gaming comparisons (gt7 and tlou2)
Also to come back to the DV conversation from yesterday, EvilBoris (HDTVTest said this):

Then what's the point of dolby vision? So if the samsung q90t had dolby vision it would look the same as normal hdr? I'm not gonna debate because I know you are the expert on this but I personally am not buying it.
The point of Dolby vision is that if your Display can’t physically show that the content shows, whether through colour volume or peak brightness , then Dolby Vision has a fixed method for doing so, which can use the SDR version as a target.
If your display meets or exceeds the content’s colour space and peak brightness, then it will do nothing and you are seeing the HDR10 image, which Dolby Vision uses as it’s master image.
DV is more important for displays with lower break brightness and smaller colour volumes, such as consumer OLED or lower end LCDs.
Even then; DV does not account for power and heat related brightness limitations.
By DiPro Go To Post4k sports not the norm yet in america?Not even close
I used to sub to Fubo bc they had the Premier League games in 4K and it was amazing. I can’t wait until NBA is in 4K in another two decades
I hope the prices go down and the options for OLED over the next few years. Also, I've seen it mentioned a few times but burn in appears to be a pretty big deal with these displays huh.
I barely follow tv but the last time I remember hearing this much about it was when people still bought plasma. Does Burn in not happen or is severely reduced on LCDs?

It's not a huge issue. It can happen yes, but it would take a very long time to do, and if you naturally vary your content it will be fine.
My B6 I had before the Cx was open box. I used it myself for 2+ years. I dont have a hint of burn in and those panels were more susceptible to it.

Yeah, or basically only watching the same channel with the same logo bugs
I got some retention playing THPS because the score is huge and white and very fucking bright, but nothing that didn't go away after turning it off for the night

my friend has a 55". always thought it was 65".
65" is fucking huge, then.

77" is the lowest i would go. 85" would be ideal, i had the Samsung in that format but OLED doesn't go higher than 77 atm.
not that crazy of a size when you used to have a projector.

Every now and then I hit content that just looks terrible. The new Borat on the Prime Video app on the TV itself looks so entirely washed out, like SDR content in an HDR container
By bud Go To PostVincent is great.
Xbox One S supports ALLM so instant game response launches whenever the console boots up. Does anyone know if I have to select game mode on picture settings to take advantage of the low input lag or can I choose one of the ISF settings for example and still retain does gaming settings?

Does anyone know if I have to select game mode on picture settings to take advantage of the low input lag or can I choose one of the ISF settings for example and still retain does gaming settings?I've been trying to figure this out too. For now I copied the colour settings from isf/technicolor over to the Game/Game HDR modes to make it less blue
Started my TV journey with a very small Vestel TV with a built-in DVD player. Screen was 20 inch probably? Then I bought my first flatscreen, some LCD screen from Samsung measuring at something around 26 or 28 inch in 720P. Then came my 32 inch 1080P Philips TV. Currently using a Samsung D8000 in 55 inch. Hopefully I'll join the 55 inch CX gang in a couple of months.
