Sony for:
- Size
- Darker rooms
- Better sound
- PS5

Samsung for:
- Brighter rooms
- Need for viewing at wide angles
- Better UI
- XboxSX

Both are really good choices and I think it mostly comes down to the location you will put it in. Light in room, how far your seats are from the TV, what angle from the TV, etc.
I'm on the lookout for any deal on the 85".
Can you clarify why one is better for the PS5 and the other better for XboxSX?

I was also...can't justify added cost for the QN90 considering same panel in the 85" TVs. I gave up, made an offer on verdetoe for $2900 today and it was accepted. Not bad.

How many ports support HDMI 2.1? Samsung website specs do not mention anything about it.

I have 2017 75" Samsung TV (from Costco). I could never make it work with my Onkyo NR646 amplifier with HDMI passthrough. Onkyo tech support claimed that it is the Samsung TV issue in multiple phone calls.

Not sure about this new Samsung TV.

I'd love any good 75" deal even, retailers have been holding out so far.

Go with the Sony
This TV has horrible contrast ratio native 1,373 : 1
Which is improved to 1,956 : 1 with the use Mini LED backlighting.????

Actually if you can find the Sony X90F it's a great TV.
