Jezzza Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 Hey all, Im having a problem with picking between the Sony X80H or Samsung Q60T in 65" size They are roughly the same price, and same specs The TV will be used for mainly movies/netflix in 1080p to 4K and occasional watching the news/cooking shows on free to air It will be paired with an entry level amp and 5.1 setup (usually content is streamed rather than bluray/xbox/ps) Ive watched youtube videos, read reviews and spoke to guys at the store, but wanting to get a third opinion before I pull the trigger on either Thanks in advanced Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davewantsmoore Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 How bright is your room? The reflection performance of the lower end Samsung QLEDs isn't superb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sfdoddsy Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 The Sony is an IPS panel, the Samsung a VA. So much better blacks on the Samsung. Very important for movies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Read online that the 75 and above X80H uses VA panel as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Read online that the 75 and above X80H uses VA panel as well. I picked it due to not being able to tell a difference with screens It's in a window lit room and also runs android, so Google Play Store is available to rent movies easier? That's what I was told In my opinion the picture looked a bit more vibrant and saturated than the Samsung Honestly it seems so minimal to me that either would of been fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
