Great review. But it is getting old about viewing angle on LCDs. People who buy them know why they are buying an LCD . Brighter for brighter rooms and no risk of burn in. Also they are getting really good for instance the Bravia 9. Also you scoring is really confusing. The Bravia 9 blew away SDR and HDR brightness. People know all about the black levels but when you have a bright TV such as the Bravia 9 with a good contrast it become a none issue. I think you are not in the real world anymore. Great reviews but poor subject comparisons and scoring on what everyone already knows. 99.9% of the population look at there pocket money is and say hey that a good picture based on how much they can spend. They are not looking for deep inky blacks. They are looking for TV for pure entertainment. What matter to people is that it is bright enough a my room in all contents and it is a quality TV that will last serval years, As for OLED you should take away points for the potential burn in when it can not get any where as Bright as LCD and longevity vs OLED. LCDs have a much longer half life in brightness production. Take that and give it some points. Real world review. So, maybe consider it. I do not watch Rtings that much but I do enjoy the reviews but never really agree with scoring and conclusion., Very inconsistent.

The sdr 1000+ nits is meaningless fot most people. As it only helps when direct sunlight is coming in. At nighttime you’d want sunglasses for the bravia 9…sdr is meant to be watched at 100 nits. 500nits at most is OK. I disagree on you for asking oleds to lose points for burn in…burn-in is now a none issue because it’s well managed.

Hdr should only be watched at night for movies because scenes are too dark (thanks film director bullshit. Hdr on youtube take video Peru 8k hdr, scenes here are real looking brighter and easier on the eye.

On another note: having all the rec2020 and or higher color volume dosn’t mean much to flagship Tvs because movies are color graded to 4:2:2 sub-chroma for hdr and rec:709 for DolbyVision.
