Our Verdict

Sony X950H

Sony X95K

The Sony X95K is a newer version of the Sony X950H with a few more features. The X95K has HDMI 2.1 bandwidth and VRR support, making it a better gaming TV as the X950H doesn't support those. In terms of picture quality, the X95K gets brighter and has a better local dimming feature, so it's better in bright and dark rooms, but if you care about color accuracy, the X950H is the better choice.
