Deal Details
I bought one of these during the last sale for $969. it is a phenomenal TV for me. i don't game, just watch movies and stream YouTube videos.

Haven't heard if Amazon or Costco will be running the same price. I plan on getting another one for the bedroom. I called Best Buy and asked if I buy now ($1399) if they would refund the difference during their black Friday sale. they said no. does anyone have any experience to the contrary?

As it stands no vrr or options for PS5.

Yes this tv has hdmi 2.1 and can support 120z (no Dolby vision)

However ps5 has no games or options as of today for 120fpS .

I'm sure it's coming just know you may now be able to use this 12ohz for quite some time.


I've done EXTENSIVE RESEARCH ON THIS TV.
I'd suggest heading over to Reddit and YouTube .

900h (or costco equivalent) has been a great price for the 65, 75, and 85 (or will be). I'm really trying to justify the 950h over this, but the price wont drop like this 900h.

Anyone have any idea at all if the 950h will drop in different sizes before Thanksgiving?
I actually have somewhat insight with access to wholesale. Not sure if this will be exactly
How chips fall but honestly doesn't look like 950 will drop much. I think we will see oled Sony 55 at 1350-1499 and 900h for 2000-2100 85. I also think maybe 65 950 will
Drop to 13-1400

Actually hanging out as well but I
Might have lost a great deal
For wholesale. I could have bought 77 Sony oled for 3,050. I was hoping 2800 but doubtful

Too many issues with the HDMI 2.1 update and it doesn't support Dolby Vision @ 120Hz. Better off waiting for next years lineup or getting a OLED. Not worth spending $1K in hopes Sony can fix the issue.

Set the RS232C control to Via serial port.
Note: This setting may affect the power consumption of the TV.
On the remote control, press the HOME button.
Select Settings → Remotes & Accessories → Via serial port.
I had an option to turn it off, so I'm gonna try that

Thank you.
I'm sending you a pm.
I'm looking for both a 75" and 85". So the price jump from the 900 to the 950 is very, very substantial. This is why I'm hoping the 950 will drop as we get close to to black Friday, but I just cant find any evidence of it. I. Cant figure out why every other tv from sony, samsung, lg is on a substantial sale, but the 950h just won't drop in price. I dont get it

That's not the only bug in the software. Mine reboots itself every so often. It's annoying, but I am hoping they get it figured out. I WOULD NOT update the firmware immediately if you get a X900h model. The reboot thing seems to be caused by an update that they have pulled?
You might consider downgrading the firmware. It can usually be done locally with a usb drive. Not all manufacturers allow though.
