In the end, "Sony, the one and only". Well deserved thumbs up...

[@abdulbasitshaikh637]

That is a ginormous size. I recently bough a 65-inch X80K & some of my relatives found it 'too big' lol.

[@Aggie4life77]

Depends on the size of your space. To me, once yo get over ~80inches, the TV is better for a dedicated theater room.

[@dashcammer4322]

Tell them if it fits on the wall with ventilation/cooling clearance, it's not too big. They seem to get smaller every hour after you install them. my eyeballs are 9 feet from a 85" Sony, and I'm thinking about one of their 98" or similar if this one ever goes South. Movies, sports, bigger is better.

[@soapa4279]

Shoutout to the wifey for not being afraid to lift and get her hands dirty. Also while this 100" TV looks amazing, I still can't justify the price over my 120" projector. Can't wait for the price of these to drop to reasonable prices in the near future, I may actually switch back. The main reason is my family is sick of having our family room darkened all the time lol and the ambient light washes out the picture for me too much.

[@vlcthefish]

"Shoutout to the wifey" Also shoutout to the hubby

[@michaelbeckerman7532]

True, and this is still why most people will only use projectors in the basement of their homes or in dedicated media rooms located in the center of the house with no outside walls (or windows). Projectors are wonderful and I've owned several of them myself but you really do have to have strict control over the lighting of the room they will be used in to get the best out of them. That means that they certainly aren't for everyone.

[@pinkpanta72]

great review, but i agree with wifey, if you are spending 10k for a television, i expect usb-c/solar powered remote control with numbers and universal control features...what is the gross weight of the tv without stand? and do they make wall mounts that can handle that size/weight of a television?

Hi, great review on the giant tv. Will sony's ht-a7000 sound bar fit in between the TV stand in front of the TV ?? i wonder if the sound bar will block some bottom part of the tv screen..

[@michaelbeckerman7532]

I'm pretty sure that the X90L has both low and high position that it can be put in where the high position is slightly raised to allow you to put a soundbar in front without blocking the screen.

[@JasonHendry22]

i have the a90j remote. love it. thk god it has numbers. disney is the only app i have to log into every time. disny sucks this way. so number pad for disney is great. still hope i can change that. the backlight is something i now realise at 51 with shortsigtedness and now needing reading glasses too helps me. the light means i can see remote without reading glasses. wow didnt realise such a small thing made the tv feel so much better.

[@Dark-wt4ze]

Wonder if they increased the dimming zones for the 65” model. The x90k had 60 for the 65”. Looking at the 98” one today it looks like they didn’t do much to reduce bloom or even add dimming zones. Sony most likely fixed the black light panel problems where if they set the tv’s to high the black lights would go out. I hope this is fixed and isn’t the case anymore.

[@michaelbeckerman7532]

I don't know this for certain, but I believe I recall hearing that the X90L has approximately 60% more local dimming zones than the X90K had and it is about 30% brighter.

[@soyelmismo17]

Yes same here, also 90 d z being reported … see Vincent

[@thenonexistinghero]

@@michaelbeckerman7532 They said 'up to 60% more', which is just marketing talk. But even if not... 60% more than nothing is still nothing. The total amount of zones is like 80 according to HDTVtest. Which is just a pitiful amount since every other high-end TV has hundreds of zones these days, even if they aren't miniLED. And especially for a TV this size it's simply not adequate enough to achieve proper dimming. No matter how good their algorhythm is, there's still going to be quite a hefty amount of noticable blooming. It's a shame, really. At least their 95 series TV's do have enough zones these days since they're miniLED.

[@MM-Official]

Facts: 80 dimming zones for 65inch, 96 dimming zones for both 75" and 85" and 128 dimming zones for this 98 inch, i'm not sure about 55"(may be 48 dimming zones)

Does this TV suffer from the hiss issue coming from the tv speakers whrn paired with Sony soundbar? I had the main board replaced on my a90k which didnt fix the issue. Replaced that tv with an A90J which has the same issue as well... Sounds like Sony has this fault on all their TVs since 2021. Pretty inforgivable tbh.
