After weeks of research and deal seeking on a low-priced 65" TV, I ended up buying this. Unique set of pros and cons depending on your requirements.
Pros:
- Sony X1 Processing is way better than other cheap TVs which makes a huge difference for some content. Excellent upscaling for cable, YouTube etc., good motion interp, etc.
- Latest Sony software implementation with Google TV (fewer glitches and bugs usually than other brands) with updates expected for years to come
- Sony build quality (most reliable brand per Consumer Reports, and fewer unit-level QC issues)
- Much wider viewing angles than almost any non-OLED TV due to IPS panel
- Next gen ATSC tuner built in
- Excellent colors compared to most cheap TVs
- Includes 3 year warranty extended to 5 if using Costco Citi card
Cons:
- Poor contrast ratio (bad TV for dark rooms)
- Poor-ish HDR
- Poor-ish max brightness
- 60hz refresh rate

Same warranty length and virtually the same performance. The SONY might be a tad brighter, but it's double the price and the scores in all categories on rtings are almost identical between these TV's.

I have a 950h (similar to x90k) in the living room and enjoy it. But for my parents who watch a lot of cable TV and news (can't get OLED due to burn in risk, need good upscale processing), and need a wide viewing angle in a room that doesn't get very dark due to skylights, nothing really came close to the overall solid package this TV offers in this price range.

My wife had a Hisense before and broke in 2 years, and then had a 42" Vizio and broke in 6 years with much less used than the Sony.
I'd rather pay more for a Sony.
Same price on Amazon if you don't have a Costco membership
