I am a Civil Engineer and I did the math for you:

$1970 85" version cost 63.8 cents per square inch of screen
$1599 75" version cost 66.5 cents per square inch of screen
$970 65" version cost 53.7 cents per square inch of screen

Therefore, the 75" version is the worst choice and actually cost more than the 85" version when looking at cost per square inch of screen

60 pages TLDR
Links

Direct Link to purchase TV: https://www.costco.com/sony-85%22...57292.html (goes in and out of stock).
Rtings.com review: https://www.rtings.com/tv/reviews/sony/x900h (IMHO one of the best LED TV's out there)


Costco.com VS Costco Warehouses (physical stores)

Costco.com vs Costco Warehouses (physical stores) act as 2 different business units and will not price match if bought from the "other" store.


Costco.com

Costco.com Price Adjustment Page: https://customerservice.costco.co...l/a_id/628
30-day Price Adjustment
Multiple people have chatted/talked with customer support and have posted proof that orders will be price adjusted.
Multiple Costco.com orders even have the price adjustment already issued.
Free shipping


Costco Warehouses

Price adjustment seems to depend on the associate/store manager so YMMV.
The carton is a beast and DON'T LAY TV FLAT when transporting.


4K 120HZ Blur Issue

(11/13) Sony has acknowledged the blur issue and promised to address it: https://www.sony.com/electronics/...s/00254079
Here is the Sony support page: https://www.sony.com/electronics/...s/00254078


Hope this helps!

My local costco verified that they will pricematch the 85" and the 75" ($1569) on 11/20. I would've went 85, but it wouldn't fit in my suv.
I was in mine yesterday and they said no again. The guy in the TV Dept said come in and buy it and turn right around and return it with the old receipt. Who's to say they will even have one? I said oh so walk out after buying it and turn around and come back in and show old receipt he said yes. But my husband asked me how would that effect our warranty if we show we are returning I don't know. Cause I registered at Sony already from when we bought it 2 Sundays ago.

So to those who have this TV - the firmware update is the HDMI 2.1 working or no? I'm not interested in dropping 2k for a TV that doesn't work as it's supposed to...
There is an issue with 4K/120Hz that text has a blur to it at that rate as noticed by computer users with high end cards at 100% scaling.
Others have said it is not noticable playing games, at higher scaling, and that it is clear at 60Hz.
It has only been 2 weeks since the firmware enabling HDMI 2.1 has been released. There is much outrage and debate if the issue can be corrected in future firmware update, with Sony not helping releasing a statement saying it was intentional to provide "smoothness". But no one knows the actual details at this time.
I am fairly happy with the TV, but I won't be using it as a computer monitor, and won't be an early PS5 adopter probably, besides most games aren't going to be 4K/120Hz anyway. So will be a while until the issues really affects me.

There are some other bugs, especially with eARC and loss of sound mainly to sound bars. But it is not universal.. Some have issues, many don't. And rebooting issues, but changing RS232 to Serial helps with a lot of those, seems keeps sending signals on RS232 that causes problems,. changing to Serial which must people don't use prevents the signals from getting too other equipment.

Hoping future firmware will correct the issues.

Out of my 30 day price match window, but still in 90 day return... wondering if will be able to get adjustment, or going to have to return and re-buy. For $500 will probably be worth the hassel .

Does the extended warranty cover cracks? Im trying to stretch the delivery out as long as possible as my new house probably wont be ready until February, so ill have to have it delivered to my current place and store it in the garage, and id like to not open the box unless i have to, for transport reasons.

When placing online order. I think Costco forces the shipping address to be same as billing address ?

I believe the cancel orders when the address don't match.

As an update, I got my $650 refund posted to my credit card this morning as a price adjustment for the upcoming sale.
I just tried and the lady said that isn't possible and they have to wait until it goes on sale. Any tips to get it done over the phone?

what? I placed an order and my credit card billing address doesn't match my shipping address. so far not cancelled. supposed to be delivered this saturday, but it hasn't "shipped" yet. I'm gonna be pissed if they cancel it over that (saw nothing about that when placing the order, and it even lets you enter a different billing address). That would make no sense as a policy. Where are you getting this from?

From a previous galaxy watch order under someone else's account that went through then canceled.

So I thought I check it with community.

I want to order this on the 20th with diff billing and shipping addresses. Hoping that's not gonna get canceled.

If your purchase from store, they can't ship it to house ? In store purchase means you have to take delivery in store ?

So we're sure the 75" is going to be $1569 again on 11/20?
