I bought a 55" U7K, love it in so many ways. It can handle indirect sunlight in Phoenix, a hard chore. Love the apps and DLNA streaming. And the built in subwoofer and directional speakers are highly effective.

[@speeddemon0712]

I have a 75" Sony X90L that I bought a few months ago and LOVE IT! Older TV shows are upscaled really well, sports look great, movies look amazing. I'm currently re-watching Longmire on Netflix and there have been a few scenes with the right lighting that just blew me away. The picture quality is insane.

[@stevenbarta6638]

I want back and forth between the X90L and the X93L with the same content including freeze frame and the only advantage that I could see is the deeper blacks on the X93L. Coming from an OLED that is an issue. The clarity and the shadow detail is a bit better on the X90L due to the XR Clear. The sets were just factory set and the remotes were not available at my local Best Buy. I was left wondering if the black level on the X90L would be improved enough if I adjusted the contrast and brightness and or monkey around with the different presets? I could not test the sound without the remotes and there is no question that anti glare on the X93L is superior.

[@DuhByrd]

Is Bravia included in the name? I keep seeing it listed w the x90l and x95l. Might be a silly question 😅

[@jeffpronesti3501]

I purchased a Sony X90L 65 inch yesterday for $930 out the door at a military exchange. Great price and I was pretty excited to get it unboxed and up and running. Much to my dismay, I'm not very impressed. Streaming Cable from Breezeline (formally Atlantic Broadband) and Netflix content to include NFL live games, old movies on TCM, and a few News shows over the last 24 hours, the picture looks like garbage. Replaced a Samsung UN55MU8000 (circa 2017), which is still quite good. I messed around with the setting, nothing seems to help.

[@TrokTalks]

Costco is offering the Sony X90L 65" for $999.. it also comes with a 5 year Allstate warranty. Which is worth $100 so the TV is really only $899 which is the same price as the 65" Hisense U8K and TCL QM8. For those looking.

You will be very happy with the 85" x90l. Just check to see if you have a good panel or not. Make sure your whites are pure white with very little DSE. Also ensure there are no dark corners (vignettes). Turn off all eco modes, and light sensor. Local dimming medium, gradation preferred. You will notice how clear everything is. If you have a Roku ultra or apple tv device, try to force HDR whenever possible, since some DV shows are a little dim.

​@@SimonWoodburyForget​​@SimonWoodburyForget It is not a Hisense warranty that comes with costco model TVs. It is an Allstate warranty which is credible and reliable. Being that Costco is a membership based store their primary mission is to not loose customers as members, therefore they can't offer a difficult warranty service. It basically extends your reciepts exchange period to 5 years.

The fact that you or even me got 3 or more high end TVs bought wthin a year is the direct effect and influence of these reviewers (salesmen in disguise). They will confuse the viewers more than help settle on any 1 TV. Why? so that we buy more than we need.

[@supertrexandroidx]

@@Sas-wk9lj So... the only reason you're watching these videos is to test your resolve to resist TV recommendations? ;)

[@supertrexandroidx]

​@@Sas-wk9lj You watch the reviewers to debunk the reviewers? Or you mean you only watch some reviewers to debunk some other reviewers? If the latter, what criteria do you use to judge some reviewers good and others bad? Your own technical and practical experience with TV's? Look, I get that it's healthy to be skeptical and critical, but at the end of the day we all have to decide for ourselves who's word we put stock in. If you look at the reviews for literally anything that's sold or you have to put up money for, there's someone there to tell you you can't trust the reviewers because they all have a financial agenda, and we certainly can't trust random people on the internet "en masse" because they tend to be either uninformed or fanboys (often both), and there's only so many things we can know for ourselves from direct experience. So... do your best to find sources you think you can count on "most of the time". That's all any of us do. ;)

[@ADISTOD3MUS]

I just bought an QN86C which is basically an QN90C since it has the ultimate local dimming exactly like the QN90C and QN85C it's a step below with supreme local dimming feature which it's pretty good too but not that good like the QN86C and QN90C is. Let me tell you that coming from a not so old TV the Q80B from last year (I mean it's 2 years old) which is full array local dimming this newer models are just mind blowing in absolutely everything. I have an IPS panel (which lots of folks still believe VA is better in nearly 2024 which is not the case anymore) and the contrast, the black level (especially with local dimming in HIGH ,the native 10bits color gamut coverage,gaming HDR brightness and highlights,9.6 ms response time in game mode at 60hz and around 5.4 ms at 120hz ,the viewing angles etc are just at another level from everything I had until now. I'm a great fan of this channel and I really love Denis"s reviews and how natural and great he speaks to his viewers.✌️Edit;. I forgot to mention that I bought the TV for 899€ here on sale in 55" and only 1 week before it was 1699 € in the exact same store here in Spain.🤭🫡

[@joelbrayman5827]

Caleb, I normally don't ask for buying advise because I can normally figure out what I want by watching a hundred video's and reading reviews lol. Based on your review I bought my first TCL TV, a 75" series 6 in 2021 - this was a big leap for someone who has owned different Samsung's and Sony's over the years. It was good advise and I have been really happy with it. So much so, I bought a TCL series 5 for a spare room in 2022. I am doing a bit of a Reno right now in our master and have incorporated a recessed shelf where I can mount up to a 65" TV. I have watched your reviews on the Hisense U7, the TCL Q7 and the TCL QM8. On Amazon Canada the Hisense U7 is $998 (CDN) the TCL Q7 is $1099, and the TCL QM8 is $1399. Because the U7 and the QM8 are mini-LED, would you consider them equals, making the Hisense a much better buy? It is clear you really like the QM8, so what I am pondering is whether paying an extra $400 for the QM8 makes sense "if" the U7 is its equal? Just looking for your thoughts.

I needed bright room performance, off center viewing quality, reliability and availability. The thing is, I was looking for the QNED 90 series but found out that the 85 series has the better picture and more bells and whistles. I got the 85 on sale for $599. The 90 series was going to run me just under $1000. I had compared the LG with the TCL and Hisense models and they both lacked 1 or more of my needs. Also I know Caleb loves LG's OLEDs, but I'm still a bit worried about burn in. Bang for the buck wise this LG hit it out of the park.

[@chefjefe68]

Nice video Caleb. The Hisense and TCL TVs you recommend, as well as the Sony X90L, are all nice TVs as long as you are looking at them straight on. If you sit in one spot and are the only one watching the TV, those are all great TVs. I have a large bright room and do have at times multiple people over to watch sports. When I took my usage into account, the TV I decided on was the LG QNED85. I get it that we all have only so much time, but the QNED85 is a versatile TV. It is bright enough for the lights on, but has mini LED for when the lights are dim. Wide viewing angle gives everyone a good seat The processing is great; whatever the streaming service, the picture in both SDR and DolbyVision HDR looks wonderful. It also has LG's great gaming features. For the price, you can get a QNED85 and a nice soundbar for the price of a Samsung QN85C, Sony X93L or even an LG C3. It would be worth your time to review a QNED85.

[@ADISTOD3MUS]

QNED 85 is a great TV but you can't compare it with an QN85C since there is no comparison due to the fact that Samsung's TV has way better local dimming algorithms,greater color gamut coverage, better build quality, better viewing angles,way better black levels,way better gaming features,etc. In the end what matters if you are happy with your purchase or not and not others says like I did in my comment so have a good gaming or cinema session my friend.✌️

[@chefjefe68]

@@ADISTOD3MUS When I bought a year ago, it was the QN85B and X95K I was comparing with. I agree it would be brighter and have better local dimming, but viewing angle about the same on both. As for gaming, both the QN85B and C has 4 HDMI 2.1 ports vs the QNED85’s 2, but otherwise LG TVs are renown for their gaming modes. The QN85B’s black levels are slightly better than the QNED85’s, but the QN85C is much better. As for build quality, my TV is very nicely built. For what I paid, I am happy.

[@jjsantangelo49]

I have the U7k and the off viewing angle isn’t as bad as everyone makes it seem to be, yeah there is a roll off in saturation, but you have to get pretty far to the side and even then it drops off slowly.

[@randallsmith2521]

I sell TVs Part-Time on the weekends for a major brand. So much of TV marketing essentially becomes the substance emanating from the south side of a north bound bull. The brands want you to use their marketing terms for things like motion smoothing, QLED, and backlighting. When asked I recommend that customers standardize on a single streaming OS for their home so that all of their TVs work the same way. TVs are essentially giant cell phones. Just like cell phones, after a few years they stop getting software updates. Unlike a cell phone you can add a streaming dongle to keep your TV "smart." Generally I don't recommend AppleTV for most customers due to cost. When it has to be updated you're looking at $130+. With other devices, you're looking at $50 or less. When you are like me, someone who has 9 TVs to buy for, that less expensive option is so much better!

[@joecamps1119]

Just bought a 65 QM8, firstly, get the 75. Secondly, it’s significantly chunkier than the 5 series I had before and I don’t love that its really clunky to mount. The immediacy of the image mainly due to the brightness can’t be overstated, but yeah just get the 75 you’ll be much happier.

The sound bar doesn't work with the older HDMI cables. I need to run a new HDMI 2.1 cable through the wall to get rid of the 1 hanging HDMI cable. I have 3 in wall, older HDMI cables so I might as well do all of them. Thanks for all the info your channel provides, Caleb! Doing a video soon on the best, current HDMI cables? LOL! EDIT: I used eArc slots on both TV and sound bar and the sound bar wouldn't work when I used the in wall cable. I had a new 2.1 and hooked the TV and sound bar up with it. Worked immediately. Both TV and sound bar took some tuning to get the best effects. Good out of the box but way better if you tune them. Rear speaker placement is important, too.

Did you consider the TCL Q7?

[@ryanschindler923]

@@nolanolson7517 Yup, but in general pretty much all outlets and reviews say the U7k is the best tv in that range. I'm sure the TCL is fine too.

[@bsthecoldone106]

Caleb! Just wanted to say thank you I’ve followed you for awhile an always used your advice and information. I just recently upgraded to my holly grail the 77” LG G3 OLED. Thanks for the great content and videos! Keep it up man!

[@yahiayahia3852]

Thanks for the video ♥️ ........ Which one is better especially in lifespan... (TCL 43 s5400a) or (Samsung t5300) or (skyworth 43 Google tv)........ please reply 🙏🙏🥰🥰

[@carlosdelatorre7221]

Hi, can you make a comparison between the u7k and the QN85C or can you tell me which is a better purchase? Thx!

[@bradlawrence8723]

Love your videos, buuuut, I'm always more confused about what to get !? 😊

[@mankat6562]

LG has the QNED's and Mini led. The QNED826 is great tv . Also the QNED866 is extremely good tv

[@CDP135Z]

Are you going to be doing a review on the Vizio Quantum Pro??? I’m really interested in the new Vizio flagship and have begun to trust your reviews.

[@JanDeBondt]

Right on time, our old samsung tv started giving problems and bought a Sony tv based on your reviews. Right on time for black friday! I skipped Samsung this time, because I still hear people complaining about black outs during for example gaming. An issue I had with the old tv too.

[@akraticus]

Considering that OLED gives me huge BPPV, I'm glad that I can still enjoy TV at it best!

[@LeezahB]

Curious how the OLED TV gave you BPPV? Sorry though!! Hopefully it went away!🥰

[@akraticus]

Thank you 🙏 I still have my five-year-old Samsung LCD that cost £300. It started two years ago after a long session on C1. At that time, I didn't think that was the cause. But i noticed that the problem subsided when switching to the LCD. One solution that significantly helped was changing the movement to 'Smooth'. To cut a long story short, my C1 broke, and now I use A2 for gaming. I use it sporadically, and the vertigo always intensifies when I do. Because I have both, old LCD and OLED i do notice that bppv get worse when watching OLED. It's not the only reason, but I feel it makes a difference.

[@princevalium25]

I'll post this again here since this TV is in this list: I've been using a TCL QM8 for the last few months in my living room. Its an insanely bright TV, but I worry I'm not getting the best picture quality. I stream through my Xbox Series S for the sake of using one interface between gaming and watching TV. What I hate is that Dolby Vision through my Xbox makes things so dark that they are unwatchable, and HDR isn't much better. When I turn those off in my Xbox settings and use the Movie mode (that I calibrated from the Rtings list of best settings), the picture is so much better. Its brighter, has more contrast and just overall pops out more. So I'm extremely confused because shouldn't DV and HDR be giving me a better picture? Even the native Google TV streaming apps are darker when in DV mode, though not as bad as when streaming through my Xbox. I love to watch movies so I have the fomo BAD

[@asole100]

LG is the only brand that does DV correctly all the others not so much so you shouldn't worry too much about it. As for HDR I'm pretty sure the TCL should be the best for that. Weird hearing that you have issues with it.

[@princevalium25]

@@asole100 Good to know. I had HDR10 enabled on my Xbox and the picture is brighter than DV, but if I turn both off and use the movie mode from the TV itself, everything is so much brighter and sharper in my opinion. Before we got this TV we got the Samsung S95B and the picture was amazing, but the panel was warped and we had to return it. I know I cant achieve QD-OLED picture with QLED, but Ive been chasing the closest thing for months now.

[@sobendd]

Caleb, where would you put the 93L ?

[@mfahadb001]

I want 55" TV more for gaming (PS5) and movies. I prefer sony and samsung. Must be pocket friendly. What you suggest!

[@leedsumitedkennethbrown3456]

Bought the Sony X95L and I can’t tell the diff tbh have a OLed LG B9 is it and the Sony wins

[@Sas-wk9lj]

You'll be able to tell the difference when you watch them in complete dark room. The dirty screen with blooming on qled on flat dark grey can be distracting. In a room with moderate light, they're coming close in PQ these days, I agree.

[@louie419]

Hey @digitaltrends amazing video! Currently watching this at work but which tv do you best recommend for a Xbox series x?? Thank you 🙏🏻

[@StarLord_365]

Hey Caleb can we get your opinion on best soundbar and tv Black Friday deals? What would you recommend?

[@TiredOfApathy]

Just need to know what TV has the following: is at least 65 to75", has a couple HDMI ports, is great for movies and sports, with excellent glare reduction and awesome off angle viewing. With lots of entertaining, you need off viewing to be superb and glare to be at a minimum with a great crisp picture that can handle fast sports events, like football or basketball.

[@Herkulez1981]

Getttimg my 75 inch tcl c805 in a couple of days and i really hope i did the right decision…and that if was better to by a 75 inch qled mini led then a 85 inch qled but older model

I bought the 65” LG B3 for $1299 with a free 4 year warranty and it’s amazing! It’s like the images are leaping off the screen I can’t even imagine what the G3 looks like.

The nvidia shield is the best streaming device ive ever had . About to use it on the 85inch u7k im grabbing BF

[@mastercasey91]

I always prefer using native apps no matter the Tv brand I have. Fire TV and other attachments are better for travel, not at home. Especially since I have an ethernet cable going from my modem router to my TVs.

QLed tvs are decent but IMO you cannot beat pairing an OLED with ATV 4K box!

[@ButterflyThatTouchesTheMoon]

Sony and TCL are the 2 best brand TV I've ever had. TCL is a bit better just do do budget. Both have been great. Samsung, Panasonic, Phillips, LG they are all so slow and has horrible UI. I can't stand their remote setups either, I always need a universal remote. TCL has been the best brand I've had, the setting are my favourite features. HDR is beautiful on TCL imo, than the Sony. The sony is so fast and great for gaming. It's actually a wonder as to why Sony makes such horrible cellphones 😅 TCL for everything else.

Hey, so I have really been interested in the TCL tv's and sony tv's... I saw that the 55 inch TCL 6-series (R646) is on clearance right now for $400 is that a good buy? anyone can comment. I am looking for the best budget TV and I was even interested in the Sony X90, but I feel like its hard to pass up on the current over of the TCL (R646) for $400! 55 inches btw

according to the german double blind test the g3 is better and the sony is 3rd place so who knows..

[@stancartmankenny]

remember when they were marketing tvs that had a yellow subpixel in addition to rgb? Like somehow having a yellow subpixel was supposed to make the image better? I was never clear on how that was supposed to improve the image, and it doesn't look like they sell that any more. I guess it didn't work.

[@jeffpronesti3501]

Hey Caleb, Love the channel. I purchased a Sony X90L 65 inch yesterday for $930 out the door at a military exchange. Great price and I was pretty excited to get it unboxed and up and running. Much to my dismay, I'm not very impressed. Streaming Cable from Breezeline (formally Atlantic Broadband) and Netflix content to include NFL live games, old movies on TCM, and a few News shows over the last 24 hours, the picture looks like garbage. Replaced a Samsung UN55MU8000 (circa 2017), which is still quite good. I messed around with the setting, nothing seems to help. Any thoughts? Thank you

[@ginogiori5285]

You have a defective TV. I own the X90L 85" and it's superb. If an 85" QDOLED existed, I would change the Sony for that. No tv will do great with low bit-rate content. For your main channels, do away with cable and try KZbin TV, it streams at 60 fps.

[@Joerpg84]

I wasn’t impressed with the X90L. However I was using it for gaming. You can get upscaling to look nice and might need to adjust settings to your liking.

[@jimski5358]

@@Joerpg84how did it unimpress for gaming ?

[@Joerpg84]

@@jimski5358It’s good for gamers because it has VRR but for me, I get dizzy with any motion blur. Samsung has motion plus settings that reduce blur and judder so I can play 30fps games and have stable camera movement in game. X90L was a beautiful TV but I play niche games and use non game mode and input lag is noticeable whilst it’s not noticeable on Samsung.
