Update: Best Buy Has Dropped Their Prices:

43" is $749 ($749 MSRP)
55" is $749 ($949 MSRP)
65" is $899 ($1149 MSRP)

_____________________________________

PC Richards currently has the brand new Sony X80J lineup on sale for well below MSRP. Seems aggressive for a brand new TV, so not sure if it's a mistake, but:

43" is $649 ($749 MSRP)
50" is $799 ($849 MSRP)
55" is $799 ($949 MSRP)
65" is $999 ($1149 MSRP)
75" is $1499 ($1699 MSRP)


Local pickup and delivery only, but I was able to get a PM from Best Buy.

There are no actual reviews on this as it just came out last week, but here is an overview video from ABT [youtube.com].

Any idea if these are still IPS panels, like the predecessor (x800h)?

I don't know if it's a pricing mistake, but if I'm going to splurge for a 2021 Sony model, it has to be at least the 90j which I believe is the cheapest model they'll put out that has HDMI 2.1 and their new Cognitive Processor XR tech.

I imagine that's exactly why it's priced this way

I asked on the Best Buy product listing and the Sony rep wouldn't specify. Very frustrating.

Kinda pricey for an edge lit panel.

60hz native refresh and no HDMI 2.1 just FYI, better off getting an on sale 900H

According to DisplaySpecifications.com 50" and 65" are VA and 55" and 75" are IPS.

That's a great TV, but it's several hundred dollars more expensive. I'm shopping this against a 635 and a Q70t in the same price range

Yeah it's a new model but what features are new? Same X1 processor. With x80h having sold for 30+% less doesn't seem particularly aggressive at all for such a direct replacement
