My 2 cents, Hisense = Kia or hyundai and Sony = Honda or Toyota in build quality. Sony has the the better color processor and upscaling, while Hisense is only has 8bit processing. Hisense does give you more goodies for the price, but build quality is suspect from all the reviews I read. I would lean towards the Sony x90 at the $999 or below price But I may be biased as I am currently using a Sony1080p 65" that is around 10 years old(Have had zero problems with it). OLED is the way to go, but I watch too much business channels and sport shows so OLED burn in kills those for me Frown

No local dimming? Maybe this price for the x90

Still a nice tv with HDMI 2.1, a 120hz native refresh rate, good color gamut and great contrast ratio. Rtings scored it pretty high. Local dimming can have drawbacks, like blooming and noticeable transitions, so it may not be for everyone

Weird that it has a slightly lower rating, except as a computer monitor

Wait for the Costco one to drop to 999.99

That's the price I paid a couple of weeks ago. That seems to be final sale price for a new X90CK. Looking back on last years X90J sale prices, the lowest it went was 920 not including YMMV manager specials.

I don't notice the blooming issue many write about and the contrast is amazing. Viewing angles are poor being a VA panel. Other than that, I'm fairly satisfied with the purchase.

I'm eying the 43" version of this as a monitor, because it's the cheapest 120hz that I've found. Unfortunately that model is only $50 off and I sit too close for 65".

X85 is the sweet spot for budget Sony LED. Lower you lose key features higher you are too close to entry OLED

Spend the extra $100 and get the Hisense 65U8H instead.
