The Sony X90 series has always been Sony's "value proposition" TV, but for the past few years, competition from TCL and Hisense have called Sony's perception of value into question. The X90L changes that by offering unexpectedly good performance at a price much closer to competing TVs than expected. But the biggest surprise is how Sony manages to pull that off -- while the X90L TV looks inferior on paper, it is clearly superior in key ways.

Hey everyone! Thanks for watching! As you may notice, I misspeak and cal THIS Tv the X90K instead of X90L a few times. I guess that comes from talking about the X90K and U8K so much on the X90L video. Whooops! Too many ‘K’s! I apologize for the goofs. Outside of that, what do you think of this TV? The Sony Tax in this case isn’t so big.

@CraigVanSickleAK 5 месяцев назад

Thanks the review and info. I had the funds set aside to purchase a 65" OLED but after spending some time at our local Sony dealer we went with the X90L. After living with it for a couple months I'm thrilled with the purchase. Simply put it just has a really nice picture that's enjoyable to watch. It pairs nicely with the latest Apple TV and when I screen mirror from the latest Macbook Pro the image is very close the the native display. A lot of other TVs I've been around don't handle the solid colors from a mirrored computer screen and show tints with uneven lighting/color. While this isn't being used as a monitor it's great to be able to cast a recently edited 4K60 video and have it look true to life. I won't buy another Vizio or TCL after a couple bad experiences. Both Sony TVs we've owned have been excellent.

@gmemo4449 10 месяцев назад

Well THIS Review did it for me I got my X90L yesterday I was considering Hisense U8K (TCL doesn't make a 55 inch in the QM8) But it was the Features & Picture Quality described in your review (Plus Black Friday Deals) that made me happily pay the "Sony Tax" I am Extremely pleased with this TV Thank You

@rc1298 10 месяцев назад

I've been waiting on this review comparing the X90L to the Hisense and TCL models. The X90L looks terrific and is definitely on my short list when Black Friday deals roll around. My questions are around how the X90L stacks up to the X93L? Does the XR Clear Image processing on the X90L give it an noticeable advantage on the X93L in noise reduction and motion? Does the X93L provide enough added capability to justify it over the X90L? Thanks as always!

@Ligamaballss 8 месяцев назад

It’s best for you to get it now or after the Super Bowl. They make different TV’s just for Black Friday. So the deal you see now is the same deal you will see on Black Friday.

It's that time of the year again for TV reviews! Have watched your X900H, X90J, X90K over the years and now X90L finally getting some praise from you guys after their previous lackluster iterations (which I agree as I've seen the others in person). Thanks for the honest review again! RTINGs has also published their X90L review and the local dimming functions the same with and without Game Mode at 4K 120hz. Assuming you guys have tested the local dimming with VRR enabled, this TV would've been even better if they had solved the issue.

@Caleb_Denison 10 месяцев назад

Perhaps I missed a setting. Seems the contrast drops off a bit in game mode, and then it’s more obvious with VRR.

@CosmicPotato 10 месяцев назад

Man, I wish this was out a year or two ago when I replaced my office TV... I really wanted to get a Sony, but the price to performance compared to Hisense just was not there. This TV sounds fantastic though. Even if it's regular LED and not as bright, I'd probably get this over the equivalent Hisense or TCL since Sony has better upscaling and motion, two categories that Hisense and TCL struggle with but are pretty important to me.

@TBoogy3 10 месяцев назад

Funny, two years ago I got a Hisense for my office after buying a Sony for my theater. And just now bought a TCL for the living room. I think I like all 3 for different things.

I’m the Sony advisor at my local BestBuy so yes I have some bias. But the actual Samsung rep that comes into our store we were discussing the lineup of both brands. He even said in his mind the X90L probably one of our best tvs and better then the Q80. Said the X93 for being the Mini LED which is supposed to be better then the 90 seems like it underperforms. Where he said with the X90L you feel it punches above especially for the price.

@musicbreath6757 7 месяцев назад

I just got mine today and I want to know where this TV has been all my life. It just destroys my 2016 Samsung. I didn’t know watching TV could be so enjoyable and one of the underrated additions is the digital TV tuner. It works great and I can get all of my local channels crystal clear. I watched “The Polar Express” and “White Christmas” back to back and they’ve never looked so good. And that’s just streaming. I have lots to learn about the TV, but I can’t wait to see some 4k Blu-rays and sports on it. I’m sure there must be better TVs, but it’s probably just a matter of degrees and not magnitudes. By the way, this TV is more than bright enough. I don’t know what nit numbers mean in real world viewing, but the vivid mode, for instance, is super bright. How bright some manufacturers TVs get just seems like marketing after getting this TV. This thing isn’t dim in any way and why you would need or want something that would practically melt your eyeballs is beyond me. For my money Sony is still the king of televisions. 👍

@ryanbaker7404 10 месяцев назад

Finally! This feels like the set we've been waiting on Sony to produce since Hisense and TCL really stepped up their game. And, shockingly, Sony hasn't overly applied the infamous "Sony Tax" (TM) to this model. I was afraid that Sony was completely exiting anything other than the high end Master Series/premium panels...and they may yet, based on how thin the margins are on TVs. I will definitely keep this on my short list this Black Friday, which will be when we finally upgrade our aging 55" LG SM8600.

I went to Costco and stared at the Hisense, LG, and this Sony for a good 45 minutes. To my eyes I just kept coming back to the Sony. The picture was just smoother and truer to real life. I don't game, so that wasn't a factor for me. Returning a 75" TV is a real pain, so to me the build quality over the Hisense and TCL helps make the cost difference justifiable, especially with an additional 2 yrs of warranty over the others. The 75" version will be in my living room next weekend.

@robertizmirlian7933 9 месяцев назад

@AdamBoehme 10 месяцев назад

Great review Caleb! I was originally going to go with a QM8 but then after seeing reviews of the X90L and it only being $100 more, I decided to go with it instead. I went to Best Buy to take a look and actually ended up finding an open box X95K for the price of a QM8! I'm super happy with it but I think I would have been just as happy with the X90L. Crazy to think that Sony is selling arguably the best value TV in 2023.

Smart move, the Sony will last a decade, the TCL could last 10 months or 2-3 years or anything in between.

@richardwestmoreland4796 6 месяцев назад

Sony as a best value tv? That has to be a first or very near to it. I have been a big fan of Sony tv's for quite awhile but mainly because I usually feel like I know what I am getting with a Sony and am rarely disappointed. I have accepted that I was going to pay more for a Sony so it is great to see that Sony have now decided that they are ready to take on the Hisense and TCL's in the world of value or "bang for your buck ". Sony has long been known for their processors and that might very well be why they are now at least on par when it comes to value. I am watching an older top of line XBR that is still going strong albeit with only 1080p capability and when it finally gives up this Sony X90L will be a tv that I will be giving serious consideration to.

After watching and reading too many TV reviews, I decided to go have a look in person at this TV in a showroom and it was absolutely stunning for the price point. The image definition was super crisp and the colors are very vivid and saturated. Regarding the blooming, the blacks are deep (not grey or blue-ish) and the haloing is barely noticeable, you have to actively look for it IMHO. I'm absolutely satisfied the performance of my X90L thus far!

Hi Caleb, just a quick question. Which one would you suggest , Samsung QN90C or the Sony X90L ? If price wasn't an issue

@ssalani 10 месяцев назад

Caleb. Your review of the x90L is impressive. Thank you for time and effort in this review--much appreciated! I bought last years x90k from Costco with a backlit remote. I do notice blooming from time to time and in certain scenes but overall really like the TV. I have hearing issues do do use captions all the time--I just change it to the yellow color font and all is good. Even with white lettered captions it is not so bad or as dramatic as some would like to believe. I bought it with tax and all for $2160 for the 85 inch model. I was wondering if I made a mistake but really cannot afford the $2800 price tag for the x90L 85 inch and did not want to wait a year plus for the price to go down to about 2000. My budget was 2000 so I stretched myself a bit as I also bought a VIZIO M-Series M512A-H6 sound bar system--your review on this sound bar helped me a lot! Thanks and I hope that you are enjoying your new digs!

If you were to choose between the X93L and the X90L, which would you choose based on picture quality? When I saw them side by side the X93 had deeper blacks and better contrast but the X90L seened cleaner amd more detailed. I am not sure that the X93L is worth paying $1000 more for better contrast and blacks but with less clarity amd detail. Might be better to have the better detail and just tone down the brightness?

Being that Sony is carrying this model over to their 2024 lineup, it's still relevant for comparing similarly priced Hisense and TCL models, especially the Hisense U8N and 2024 makeover of the TCL QM8. While the U8N and QM8 will get brighter, the question is how close their color accuracy, PQ EOTF tracking, motion performance, and upscaling can get to the Sony X90L.

@Applause1982 10 месяцев назад

I would love to see a review of the Sony Acoustic Center Sync feature across a range of Sony TV's. Some models are better than others, I've heard. The point of the review should be if the feature is good enough to replace the center speaker in a 3.1 or 5.1 home theater setup. That also mean the review should use a Sony receiver that supports this feature, like the new TA-AN1000 or similar. I think I speak for many, when I say that the center speaker generally is the hardest to place in terms of WAF. Also many of us rock some decent speakers for music and dont want more speakers in our living space. But the center channel often bring some much needed clarity to movies. So, can this Sony feature replace the center speaker in a pinch or is it crap? Are there any other TV's on the market that can also use the TV speaker as a center channel? Thanks alot for a great channel.

Compared with x90H this new TV X90L is significantly better in terms of color richness, hdr highlights, overall brightness and motion.

But man add the reduced bezels to the list and with those colors yeah this tv sucks you in. It is also thinner in width. Definitely worth considering. P.S.

I just got this tv. setting it yup tomorrow. can’t wait to see how it is with ps5. I need to get 2.1 hdmi cables.

@dcoderjr 10 месяцев назад

I have a 65 inch Hisense U8 coming today. When their performance is this close I'm going for the best value.

@Chuck-- 10 месяцев назад

Have you personally seen the 2 TVs side by side?

@dcoderjr 10 месяцев назад

@Chuck-- Not in person. I have a SONY A80J OLED and the Hisense performs very strong beside that.

@dcoderjr 10 месяцев назад

@Chuck-- adding to my earlier comment, my Sony A80J does noticeably better taking crap inputs and making them look better but when I play high quality content through both they look similar in quality with the OLED A80J of course having better black levels but not by much. The contrast appears similar because the Hisense gets so much brighter.

@asole100 7 месяцев назад

The U8K performs betrer with blacks, and better blooming control thanks to it's hardware/Mini-Led however the X90L performs better with motion, PQ EOTF tracking, and upscaling which makes the U8K look hazy in comparison thanks to it's new 2023 AI. called "XR Clear Image". Which you can see it perform @ the dog scene in Brian's Tech Therapy's old comparison video where he first compared the U8K, and the X90L. However he did not juice up the X90L settings at first which is why they looked similair for more than half way through the video. Thus I wouldn't consider the performance close whether that be the U8K with the better hardware or the X90L with the better software.

I just purchased the sony x90l. 65 inch got it yesterday. My 1st sony. I must say the clarity.the picture.the colors pop.i know it's sony's midrange.i am very pleased over all.strongly suggest for anyone looking for a midrange $1.000 t.v. the a95l is the Ferrari for those who have the extra cabbage.

@ashkanshafiei4129 10 месяцев назад

Is the x90L better than qned85? Please help me to decide which one is better to buy? Thx alot 🙏🏻

@prophetmargin7497 10 месяцев назад

Do the Sony X90K and X90L come with a mid-stand for the 55 inch model?

@AlvaroRodriguezarb 10 месяцев назад

Good video. I’m a color management professional, in the print world. I’ve got a question, what ICC are you comparing this TV to?

@Azndorkus 10 месяцев назад

Considering a 65in…should I go for TCL C845 or Hisense U8?

@craigslistuser12 10 месяцев назад

Caleb, I am deciding between the 98" Sony X90L vs 98" TCL QM8. I will only use it for 4k blu ray movies in a dark room. Which one would you recommend in this scenario?

@ABEAZYdaRonin94 10 месяцев назад

I'm more of a gamer so I would go TCL QM8. If you're not worried about gaming, go for the Sony.

@prashantkompella5372 10 месяцев назад

Great review, please do a comparo between Sony X90L and Hisense U8K. I feel in the sound department Hisense TVs shine with their in-built sub-woofer.

@markmarquardt3119 7 месяцев назад

This video did just that lol

@Sas-wk9lj 10 месяцев назад

Which is better value, Sony 55A80J (oled 2021) or Sony 55X90L (full array led 2023), both are available around same price.

@toddwerther188 10 месяцев назад

Still rocking my 75" X90J. I chose Sony mostly due to the color accuracy out of the box. Yes there is some blooming, but it doesn't impact my experience. I wouldn't choose it for gaming but this is my TV for watching movies and quality content.

@michaeldavis6550 9 месяцев назад

I have the same X90J in a 65in & had to buy it even tho it wasent needed. Bought a X95J to replace a bad TV & fell in love with it so much it forced me to upgrade another TV in the house that wasent needed & couldnt quite afford another X95J so got the X90J 65in & it replaced a old 40in Samsung. That was a major impact full upgrade.

@kevinyu9645 7 месяцев назад

do you know how many dimming zones there are in the 65inch vs the 75 inch variants? Previous years had the 75inch double the dimming zones which improved contrast a lot...

@darinbourne6524 10 месяцев назад

I'm curious... how big is the upgrade from this tv to the X93L. This review was very glowing

@TheNotedHero 10 месяцев назад

How would you say the X90L performs against the similarly priced (at least here in Australia) Samsung QN85C?

@buttoxbrown 9 месяцев назад

Would you recommend this over the Samsung q80c?

@soyelmismo17 10 месяцев назад

Just curious, do you know what the dimming zone count is on the XR 98x90L? Great review by the way . I ordered mine in April and less than 48 hours away from delivery. I feel like I’ve learned a lot from you, Brian and Vincent. If I had a dollar for every comment I read about blooming on the L 90 series ….well this Texas giant would be paid for.😂

@raiderrog6412 9 месяцев назад

Great video. I usually go with the cheapest TV by size. But I was wanting to maybe pay a little more for something alot better. I have had a Mitsubishi 65" rear projection TV for 20 years now. I paid 3000 for it. I think it's time for an upgrade!

@nooneknowsnothing 7 месяцев назад

Forced to retire it & it was 5000$ + on debut. It made the room look ancient. If I had bought Netflix stocks, they are worth million $. 😀

@SB.22 7 месяцев назад

I was able to get my hand on the 75' for around 1700 $CAD at Costco Canada (1250$ USD) during Black Friday. We come from a 65' LG who is arround 10 years old (we still running as 2nd TV in our training room). So far no regrets, I chose that over QM8 & U8K mostly because I wanted something I was sure would last couples of years without software issue.

@oilerguy5494 3 месяца назад

How did you get it that cheap? I’ve never seen the 75 below $2000

@Tyro207 10 месяцев назад

Hi Caleb, any plans to review tv remotes as well?

@micker9830 10 месяцев назад

The price on this TV is excellent, $1800 for a 75"??!! I'm sure it would be perfect for the majority of TV viewers out there.

@nomadchad8243 2 месяца назад

I would love to see a software comparison between tvs. Im going with a sony because of the android based UI. It works with my phone and is easy to navigate. I tried some Samsung models and it was frustratingly slow and locked up with proprietary restrictions to simple usability.

@bbilly28 2 месяца назад

which would you recomend for a covered patio ?? i have had tcl and sony

@oasismike2905 9 месяцев назад

Thanks for the good content! Question to Anyone: IF my preferred video source is a PC graphics card (not gaming), THEN does that bypass all the internal processing capabilities of most modern TV's? I'd read that that is what gamers preferred, and that newer HDMI 2.1 120Hz inputs would auto-detect and bypass processing to minimize latency. But, if choosing Internet streaming sources available only from browsers that cannot be installed on a, "smart," TV [ie: Libre Wolf, or Firefox w/uBlock Origin extension] without greatly reducing every metric of performance, well, then what's the point? May as well wait until OLED comes down in price and lasts long enuf (I'm sure there's a Differential Equation showing that'll never happen). Thank you!

In which port to connect the ps5, sound bar and 4k bluray player for best results!!!

@alfpiccolo 10 месяцев назад

I am convinced that this is the budget version I am going with. Thank you Caleb. I have a question though, Is this a VA or IPS panel TV? does it shows that this impact the picture quality at a certain viewing angle?

@unknow3000 10 месяцев назад

Its VA like X90K & J while the IPS is X80L

@Kobzar666 10 месяцев назад

What about reflections? Is it good for bright room?

How do the Hisense 75U7k and U8k compare with the IPS panels?

How does it compare to the Samsung QN90C, it's about the same price here and I'm wondering which should I choose

@chengkunwang6839 10 месяцев назад

Hi Caleb. Do you plan on reviewing Panasonic's first mini-led TV, MX950?

@JoeyGageyt 3 месяца назад

Brought back my hisense u8k after i couldnt handle the HORRIBLE smearing and got this instead. This tv smokes it out of the water. People need to realize brightness does NOT make a tv better. Processing is SO important.

@docwho10th88 2 месяца назад

LOTS of complaints on Best Buy AND Amazon about both TCL and Hisense because of bad picture quality and TV's becoming bricks in less than 3 3 years.

@dostvost7 4 месяца назад

Hello Sir, I bought this TV after comparing with hisense U8k and u7. I m happy with the brightness and contrast, But there is only one question- I am not able to watch any movie in fuĺ screen? I have watched latest 4k movies from Netflix prime and Hulu but the option to widen picture -says feature not available- something strange. If that's the case then why do I hv 85 inches if I can't view full screen. Pls assist or advise..
