I just canceled my UN9070 order from Costco for this model.

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.
It really depends on your budget and how much you value improvements in picture quality.

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.
Also includes a $100 Streaming Credit towards your choice of Google Play, Paramount+, Showtime, Sling TV, or Xbox.

I would like to get this one (UP8770) but my 86" LG UN9070 has already shipped.

Do you guys recommend refusing delivery or accepting and filing a return? And then ordering this one?

Sony because this has an IPS panel like all the NanoCell lgs (excluding oled) the Sony will be better

I did the same as you. I just ordered the 8770. I'll call them today to see if they can cancel the shipment. If not they pick up for returns anyway 👌

I found this LG website for comparing IPS vs VA displays to be informative. Take it with a grain of salt since LG uses IPS.

Thanks for the comparison. I just did the same (canceled my UN9070, they asked me to refuse delivery since it is scheduled for tomorrow) and ordered this one.

For me the other factor was (since I wasn't planning to wall mount it) the stand width. UP8770 has it at 60.3" (decent) as opposed to UN9070 at 70.2" (try finding a TV stand wider than that)

you are correct, I am not too sure about the specs on the Costco's website. I downloaded and compared the spec sheets for both. It seems from the spec sheets UP8770 is a little heavier.

The other thing I learnt from the spec sheet was that UP8770 seems to have only 2 HDMI 2.1 ports (indicated in the spec sheet by "Latest HDMI (4K@ 120Hz) HDMI3,4"

The absence of the "Latest HDMI ......." in the UN9070 spec sheet makes me think whether UN9070 has any HDMI 2.1 ports (Costco.com says all 4 are HDMI 2.1 but I don't know whether to believe it now)

Seeing these reviews, I am happy that I missed the un9070. Ordered this one.
Any recommendations for wall mount please.
