Vizio M8 Vs Sony X90CH - worth the $500 price difference?

I was able to find and purchase the 65" M8 on sale for $650. However, I was also considering the Sony X90CH, but that is about $500 more. I am admittedly more comfortable with the Sony brand and Vizio makes me little nervous. However, is the Sony really worth the price difference?

Our main uses are TV (YouTube TV), movies, and sports. Video games/PC use is a non-issue. Also, while I really like the Sony Android TV setup, I’m also fine using a Roku with the Vizio, so the built-in apps are not that important.

    I think “PC Monitor” part here is heavily misleading. I bought this TV because I was impressed by QN700B as PC Monitor in-person and based on this review I thought it could be only better, but I made huge mistake. Unlike QN700B, with this TV dithering is still visible(less but still there) when you turn on VRR. Also on top of that, with VRR/GSync you are not getting “444” anymore. There is a weird compression going on with VRR, visible on grey color, text has some weird artifacts, etc.. I hope you’re going to check these things in future. Also, I’m getting a lot of flickering with VRR, usually during “static scenes” in games, both on higher and lower refresh rates(I’m playing 4k120Hz on RTX4080)
