Our Verdict
Sony X93L/X93CL
Sony BRAVIA 7
Sony has made some really strange design choices in 2024, so the Sony BRAVIA 7 QLED is better than the Sony X93L/X93CL in some ways, but it's a bit worse in other ways. The BRAVIA 7 has a better Mini LED backlight, with less blooming around bright lights in dark scenes and better contrast. The B7 also gets significantly brighter, so bright scenes are brighter overall, and specular highlights stand out better. On the other hand, the B7 doesn't have Sony's 'X-Wide' viewing angle filter and a much worse anti-reflective coating, so go with the X93L if you're in a bright room or have a wide seating arrangement.

Looking for a personalized buying advice from the RTINGS.com experts? Insiders have direct access to buying advice on our insider forum.
I’m also eager to see the U3225QE, so hopefully a store somewhat near me will have one on display soon after it’s released.
I’m curious what you mean by “120Hz (although I believe it will be a slow panel, as my U2724DE, independently of the supported input refresh rate).” Wouldn’t this negate the whole purpose of a 120 Hz refresh rate, if the display panel itself doesn’t refresh at that rate? I’m skeptical whether Dell would do that, at least with this upcoming monitor.
