If you plan on using this for 4k 120 on PC or consoles you should not buy. Sony halves the resolution and rebuilds the image and it looks terrible. Costco refunded me after 9 months because Sony continues to break the TV with every firmware release. There are nearly 1300 pages about this TV on the AVS forums and all of its problems. That said, for TV and movies jt was great.

As good as it is, according to rtings, it lacks local dimming, which makes it worse for watching hd content comparing to 90j.

This seems equivalent to 850 series of the previous model which is not a great tv when compsared to 900F and 950G...I would choose 90 or 95

It also appears to lack HDMI 2.1, unless I missed it.

I came in to post this same thing. No way on earth you should consider this. I just helped my friend pick out a Vizio p series quantum. I think it was close to this price new, but he found an open box for $700. I'd definitely find something with local dimming for this size and price.

Extra blooming effect. I guess if you like that sort of thing LOL. In all seriousness, it's supposed to boost contrast but I find the effect distracting.
