After some research, the differences are:
- UP8770 has a7 Gen4 processor vs Gen3 on UN9070
- UP is 2021 line and UN is 2020 line
- UP8770 has TruMotion 240 and UN9070 does not
- UP8770 has thinner borders and overall width
- UP8770 has lower weight
I think the number of HDMI 2.1 ports are the same between these two. Costco's website has some errors. The differences are definitely worth ~$60 additional cost to me.
I was convinced I wanted a QLED or OLED until I watched videos and saw the TVs in person. Then I realized that I just love a big screen. I find it terrific for sports, gaming immersion, and movies. But that's me.
Most of us going for TVs like this can't tell much of a difference between TVs like this one and better TVs or we don't care enough to shell out for the better ones. But we care enough about size to spend the extra for this size - we could get a 75" for far less with a better picture.
The Sony is better and more expensive. Do you want features such as FALD in an 85" TV? Then Sony is the way to go and probably worth the extra $550 or more. If you barely notice the difference between these TVs or don't find the difference significant enough (as I do) then the LG is a much better value.

If I install a mount, does it have to be screwed into a stud behind the wall? I assume yes since the TV is about 100 lbs.

For cutting drywall for new electical work boxes, a box cutter makes a cleaner cut versus a drywall saw...
8770 is direct lit as well...
Not sure why the weight matters, but the 9070 is a couple pounds lighter, not heavier...

I think my current IKEA stand will fit a TV this big, so if I buy the TV, I may let it sit on the stand for a while so I can see how I like it and take my time figuring out how to mount the TV.

theyre supposed to be reviewing the 82/86 inch seperately due to them having a 120hz panel
i have the tv and its very nice, i own a c1 in my gameroom and i still think the quality on the 86"is beautiful.
