VA panels have better contrast, but worse viewing angles from the sides (image gets more washed out). IPS and ADS/ADS Pro which are related have worse contrast, so think lifted black levels, but better viewing angles. I've seen the 75" U8K at best buy and it wasn't impressive for contrast imo, it looks washed out compared to something like the TCL QM8, but it does have a ton of other benefits besides that. I'd say for LCD TVs the U8K in 55", 65", and 85" are the best choices out there today, but for 75" I'm not sure there's a winning LCD TV this year in the US, the U8K has poor contrast, the QM8 has horrible brightness tracking for HDR which destroys star fields and makes images inaccurate, and Sony didn't make a true new flagship 75" for the US this year.
I would recommend researching ADS panels to see if it fits your use case.

Costco doesn't sell u8k
One of the major differences - more dimming zones and 1.5 times brightness

Did you get a 75 inch u7k? How bad is it?

To see a quality 65" Sony at the same price as a TCL is amazing. The 75" Sony is actually $200 cheaper than the 75" QM8!!!

True, but the x90l does struggle with black levels and blooming due to the limited zones, and also doesn't get nearly as bright for impactful HDR performance. It's not a bad TV, but it's performance (beyond amazing Sony processing) is far more in line with something like the u7k than the U8K, which is why it's able to be priced close to the U8K, but is a solid 50% or more, more expensive than the u7k at 75"

Minor blooming doesn't bother me. Even minimal soap opera drives me insane. No one can beat Sony when it comes to motion processing. TCL is what to avoid if you hate SOE like I do. It's very hard to kill it with a TCL. Hisense gives you more options to avoid it.
I don't want spend more for $2k+ LC C3 or Samsung S90 screens because I can't tell the difference and I want android tv
You could go with the x93l if you want to spend more. But I'd take the x90l at least over this any day.
Absolutely ignorant post. TV has a 2 year warranty for that worst case.
That's a totally fair suggestion, though that model is basically a rehash of last year's flagship, still probably better than the U8K and QM8 even if somewhat marginally, but that's even pricier than the Samsung S90C QD-OLED, since their own site has it for 2k for AAA members. That's the option I went with in the end, at least for one of the two TV's I need to upgrade
