I was debating between this and a 77' OLED. I am glad I went with this TV. But I have a massive wall with plenty of space; honestly 85'' is still too small for my taste. It will buy me a few years until 100'' OLEDs are reasonable.
My thoughts on the TV: it depends on the quality of content you feed it. 4k whether streaming or UHD discs is amazing. I am incredibly pleased. Movies kick ass; picture quality is amazing. 1080p content is only OK. I don't think the upscaling is amazing. Broadcast TV is average, about the same as the 6-year old Samsung it replaced. I sit about 9.5 feet away, so maybe that's a function of larger TV and viewing distance. If you do a lot of broadcast TV you may find better; so many networks still broadcast in 720p (and even 1080) but I feel like the TV doesn't upscale that well.
If you mainly watch 4k content I think you will be incredibly pleased with the picture.
People on here and AVSforum will say this is the 900h and 900h has nothing but problems. The problems you read about are "blurry 4k/120hz". Do you plan to use it as PC monitor or next gen gaming console? If yes, you may care about that. If no, then it literally doesn't matter and you can ignore the noise. A few people make a lot of noise.
I have had exactly ZERO issues with eARC, 4k and Dolby Vision are amazing.
The Samsung QN90 is for sure a better TV with better picture quality. The QN85 may be as well. However the QN90 is significantly more expensive and Samsung's don't do Dolby Vision.
Consider your use case. If you want the best picture, get OLED. If you want a super bright LED and don't care about Dolby Vision or cost, get the QN90a, if you want a good value which thrives with good 4k content and don't care about PC monitor/next gen gaming, consider this TV.
1- It's massive. I came from a 75" and it's incredible how much larger the footprint is
2- Gaming feels flawless and beautiful
3- 4K content is absolutely beautiful. There's a scene near the beginning of Finding Demo when Marlin gets knocked out and the screen goes black. It goes really really black on this TV.
4- I've done absolutely no tweaks and I am really enjoying the TV
5- I also own a 65" Sony x950G and this one is just as beautiful as that one
I am NOT an expert. But I am looking for value. Meaning. I want a nice TV at this size without breaking the bank. At this price point and size I don't think there is a better option out there.
Also. I bought the Sanus Simplicity full motion mount from Costco to hang. Boxed well with each step packed separately. Website to go to that allows you to perfect where you want to hang and give you exact measurements. And after not initially understanding the hook where the TV hangs on the bracelet- once I figured that out to get it flush from left to right it's perfect and stable and I love that a TV this size can come out from the wall and be turned and tilt so easily. Highly recommend.

this only has 40 dimming zones on a giant 85in... WTF?!
- Sony 75in X940E has 256zones, shows how downgrade spiral this went
and this has the cheapest 4K HDR processor to work an 85in panel (not extreme, ultimate or XR)- double WTF?!
and doesn't have VRR so over-promise, under deliver- TRIPLE WTF!!
/PASS!!!!!
The most useful comment on the whole thread.
I don't want to start another OLED vs LED war, but I was really hoping Costco would drop the price of the OLED 77" model.
77" A1 is $2500 and the crazy blacks in dark is probably worth getting OLED if you watch a lot movies in the dark, but I'd probably go with Sony's OLED if it was on sale.
This is still a very good price.
I'm looking for an upgrade now, but I can't justify the $4-5k on the 83" OLED or the downgrade in size to 77" for $3k. My ideal upgrade is an 83" OLED (Sony or LG) for <$3500.
This is definitely worth the price as the XJ91 features local dimming zones. Your going to see better contrast across any content.
Also note Sony added VRR to the set back in December. So it will pair nicely with any game console or PC.

If upgraded HDMI cables are needed then I will also appreciate suggestions.
