This is probably going to be one of the most popular “bang for your buck” TV’s.
I’d imagine RTINGs will purchase it regardless of voting status due to the popularity and quality of this lineup in the past.
Follow-up on Dolby Vision post. How big a deal for Samsung to NOT have dolbyvision? If I’m watching Disney+ on a Samsung, what is the practical difference and what is it defaulting to? Thanks!
I think this tv will look spectacular with the hdr-10+.
I got this today. Thank you so much for reaching out!
Last week, a U.S. Sony Support article was updated and incorrectly removed reference to future support for VRR and ALLM for the X900H series.
Please note that this was an error, and the plan to support these features is unchanged from the previous communication wherein we state that the X900H will support VRR and ALLM via a future firmware update. The article containing the erroneous information on Sony Support has been updated with the correct information: https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/televisions-projectors/articles/00246472
Our apologies for any confusion this may have caused! Please let us know if you have any questions.
I returned mine. They should of did more testing before they released the updates. I’m saving my money for a tv next year. Hopefully they work through their issues.
I feel for you guys. The vizio has all these beast specs and can get a wonderful picture but the bugs are so bad. I was so hoping this was the year they did it right.
Does the blur matter to a user who is going to primarily watch netflix and hulu sports? (No gaming). Wondering if I should get the X90ch 85 inch from costco at $1999 or get the Q80T for $2999 because of this blur issue.
This only matters for video games and pc uses. Mostly pc. If you are buying a tv for movie watching the 900h is better than the 80t.
You should wait a few months. Your budget is high enough that you can afford a new 2021 tv. Those tvs should be better equipped for the new systems giving you more options.
I’ve done waaaaay too much research for my new TV and went from wanting a Q80T to the X900H as going by rtings figures the brightness is roughly the same in peak and sustained on average but the X900H has Dolby Vision. Could care less about HDMI 2.1 (I’m primarily a PC gamer). Have been keeping an eagle on eye on firmware releases and all the associated problems affecting the X900H (reboots, blurry 120Hz) and just don’t want to deal with that especially considering the price ($3K AU). I had paid for a 75" X900H and was awaiting delivery and walked into the store to cancel it and was drawn like a moth to a flame to the X950H. Watching a high bitrate Sony demo showing the X950H next to the X900H made it clear - it’s the X950H for me. Everything looks about the same between the two in terms of colour accuracy and contrast BUT the X950H HDR highlights made me physically smile and utter the words “woah dude”. The image quality in the demo video was significantly better to my eyes in terms of sharpness as well. Ended up getting the X950H instead (man did I teach Sony a lesson :p) and can’t wait for it to be delivered. Re gaming, I might hook up an old gaming rig with an Nvidia 1080 and just framelock it to 60fps and enable fastsync. I can more than happily live with that for driving, fighting and RPG / adventure games (friends don’t let friends play FPS’s with a joypad). Good luck to all the X900H owners. I’m sure Sony will fix it. Issue though is all the stress it’s causing customers. Surely isn’t worth it from a reputation point of view. Sony could at least put out a statement to rtings, Quantum and HDTVTest to ease peoples minds. That statement they gave Vincent is just ridiculous. There’s no hardware limitations on that chip. It’s a quad core at a high clockrate. Lesser chips can do 4K 120Hz with VRR no problems. Also i have loved watching all three review channels - rtings is to the point, quantum is a legend and Vincent is my spirit animal.
Where is scott1174 when you need him. Quantum is a legend? Haha
I have an LG Awipe. I have an OLED CX. But go ahead and waste your money 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Here’s a scott post. Bragging about his tcl from 2019 So TCL R625 VS R635
So looks like according to rtings review the R625 2019 is way better then the R635.
The black uniformity sucks on the R635
The graidant sucks on the R635.
Local Dimming sucks on the R635
Game response on the R635 is worse then the R625. Alot worse.
Wow this is shocking. Thank God I got the R625. However, other reviewers like Caleb from Digital Trends gave it a pretty good rating. I would take the average of all the reviews folks. However I believe all panels are different so. It’ won’t run at 120hz@4k because lack of HDMI 2.1.. Also for people that don’t know for e/arc to work your connected devices need to have e/arc as well. So if your receiver isn’t e/arc capable then your shit out of luck.
That is the lamest excuse I’ve ever heard. A tcl rep just happens to follow you around online supporting you in arguments? Hahaha You got embarrassed and deleted your dummy account. You brag about how your tcl from 2019 is better then the new one all over rtings yet claim to have a cx. Never once discussing it on any message link on rtings. You are a bozo.
You just said Sony is crap and tcl is superb. Then immediately say tcl is about as good as Sony. See how thats confusing scott? Right now the x900h is 1599 and the tcl is 1399. The only wacko here is you 😄 🤣 😂 😆
1.) X900H has a 120Hz panel
2.) X900H has HDMI 2.1 and VRR if Sony pushes out the firmware update
3.) The TCL is not available in Europe
These are my personal arguments for the X900H
Don’t worry about it, Scott puts up posts like this so people will talk to him. He obviously owns a tcl and has become their great defender on rtings message boards.
It’s a disappointing year other than a few models. Hisense and tcl seem to be the better buy. Vizio seems to be a bit of a mess right now. Maybe they call this the 2021 series because it isn’t going to work right until some time next year.
It’s such a bad question, and he posted it twice, I’m surprised anyone gave them a straight answer. The guy is smart enough to figure out how to start 2 chat threads but can’t figure out the side by side comparison tool? Gotta be a troll right?
It’s on game mode + HDR as you can see here
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2DaZE_VGytQ&feature=youtu.be&t=652
We don’t even know if this is a “bug” or just how Samsung’s dimming behave on low input lag mode. If you read the thread, they claim Samsung’ pushing for a firmware update on September. Will it get fixed or not, noone knows, Samsung doesn’t really communicate
Guy spends a lot of time berating his audience for any disagreement. He made a whole video ripping some guy for a comment he had made on an earlier
video. It was so petty.
What about the M series? They are everywhere and one of the few affordable TV with HDMI 2.1. I’d love to see a review as i plan to make a 50" my computer monitor.
They already bought an m series. Just waiting for it to arrive
good call
I think this tv will look spectacular with the hdr-10+.
You guys drinking over there?

You were always on my mind

Tcl sucks. Thats why I didn’t buy one hahaha
It matters that you are a blatant liar. You claimed you own a cx. Should I share the thread here? I can.

I heard the vrr wasn’t working yet, It is still coming via update. Is it enabled?
Exposing the foolish
Scott i thought you owned a cx?

Cx? https://www.rtings.com/tv/discussions/wt2sdqITexqt0v0r/so-tcl-r625-vs-r635
That’s weird you were just bragging about your lg cx….. odd indeed.
Wow hahaha
Scott must be really upset hahaha
Wow a different floydmikeyo now lol weird people on here hahaha
You just said Sony is crap and tcl is superb. Then immediately say tcl is about as good as Sony. See how thats confusing scott? Right now the x900h is 1599 and the tcl is 1399. The only wacko here is you 😄 🤣 😂 😆
1599 for 75 inch.
Thanks scott
So you change your name to Adam hahaha
Weird another scott… that tcl was nice. H9g is way better for a budget model anyway. But at least you got the whole sales pitch out.
Don’t worry about it, Scott puts up posts like this so people will talk to him. He obviously owns a tcl and has become their great defender on rtings message boards.
Man that sucks
I heard they had an update that has fixed most of the issues. Does anyone know if it worked?
It’s having issues with hdmi.
It’s actually not even as bright as its predecessor. I thought it would be brighter.
Yeah I’ve heard this tv has worked really well with consoles haha
Have you seen the upscaling?
Hopefully the 8 series drops soon.
It does 4k at 60 though
It’s a disappointing year other than a few models. Hisense and tcl seem to be the better buy. Vizio seems to be a bit of a mess right now. Maybe they call this the 2021 series because it isn’t going to work right until some time next year.
That’s a shame. I prefer dts to dolby
What do you think so far?
I have heard about so many issues with the 900h. Still waiting on the firmware update?
Go with the 60t.
It’s such a bad question, and he posted it twice, I’m surprised anyone gave them a straight answer. The guy is smart enough to figure out how to start 2 chat threads but can’t figure out the side by side comparison tool? Gotta be a troll right?
That guy is a great source.
Gotta go q60t. Easy choice.
Guy spends a lot of time berating his audience for any disagreement. He made a whole video ripping some guy for a comment he had made on an earlier video. It was so petty.
They already bought an m series. Just waiting for it to arrive
