Sony A90J - Should You Buy it?

The Sony BRAVIA XR A90J 4K HDR OLED with Smart Google TV is one of the best TVs ever made. The 83" XR83A90J is the first OLED in the USA to have a heatsink, HDMI 2.1 gaming, and pushes over 1000 nits. But do these upgrades justify the cost for this Master Series OLED? I'll offer the top 4 features as well as differences from the smaller sizes and then I'll show SDR, HDR and gaming content before making buying recommendations that include the LG C1, LG C1, Samsung QN90a, and the Sony A80J. #XR83A90J #A90J

Finally got delivery of my 85” QN90A last week, and I am completely happy with my choice. Yes, I know the OLEDs would have had a marginally better picture, but for $3599 vs $6k or $8k, I couldn’t make it make sense. Something I haven’t seen anyone talk about yet: if you pair the QN90A with a Qn950a soundbar, the tv just recognizes the inputs and treats them as native, using the same remote and UI as the TV. Pretty neat. Keep up the great work, Brandon. 👍🏼

I am leaning to the Sony but this one feature is critical. Can you confirm one way or another? thx much

So if you wanted your first OLED TV, you sit about 10 ft. away, you’re not a gamer, you have some vision issues, and your room has tall windows with coverings and some smaller upper windows without coverings: would you buy the Sony A80J 77”, or the A90J 65”, since they’re close in price, or something else altogether? Oh. I have a Bose soundbar and I am a grandma, if that’s a factor. 😅

Brandon, I think the A90J is both: something that I am considering buying, and it's a ridiculous price. However, on the latter, I am prepared to wait until it comes down a bit; especially as the LG 83" C1 is likely to create good competition to hopefully cause Sony to lower the price of the A90J much further 🤪

Need advice, any thoughts are appreciated. My 2018 Samsung 65” Q6FN went out on me and I was reimbursed, and now I’m trying to decide between the Samsung QN90A and Sony A80J (65 inch as well). I’m very used to bright colorful TVs as I’ve had Samsung LEDs for about a decade now, but they keep breaking on me every few years, thinking of switching to Sony, but I’m concerned OLED might not be bright enough. I’m not in a bright room, it’s only ever dimly lit to moderately lit, but I don’t know I just hear OLED doesn’t get bright and it scares me off. I watch my Samsung in Dynamic picture mode which is bright as the backlight goes, movie and standard modes are too dim for me, but maybe that’s because color is lost on those modes and on an OLED it won’t be and they’ll pop. Any thoughts?

I have read several reviews on the A90J that say it is very good for gaming now the VRR has dropped. It also pairs very well with the PS5 which is no surprise and I'm hoping to find a TVthat does both video content and gaming equally well.

i really want a "75" tv so its upsetting the a90j isnt that size as well... however considering that size i am now looking at the a80j or the z9j which i know is an lcd tv and expensive but honestly cant figure out which one i should get

Hey brotha wanted to tell you man you need to use film mode for 24p content and for broadcast like soccer and things set it to low then use the motion settings you want to and boom absolutely insanely good motion

I know most people review smaller sizes, but since your doing 83 inch OLEDS 😆 I figured alot of people might be interested in a review of the 85 inch QN85A which comes with the VA panel instead of the IDS Panel. Just saying I think it would get a lot of views and people can know more options at that size.

I'm sure it's great. I have a lot going on now but, if it had the VA, it's probably nearly same as 90A

I watched your review of the A90J 83"..on my A90J 83". Good review. I wanted the best I could get. All good points comparing to the LG 83". The final straw was no HBOmax on LG. Petty maybe, but I didn't want to have to launch another device (that would also need firmware updates) just to watch shows on HBOmax.

If you get a chance. Test a Samsung, LG using patch cable vs Wi-Fi with the Netflix network connection. It was disappointing to find out the $8000 Sony only has a 100Mb NIC not 1Gb. Wi-Fi is faster.

Great video - can I ask you this question, Here in March 2023, this 83 inch Sony A90J is only $4,499. We purchased a 77 inch LG G2 from Best Buy 6 weeks ago for $3,399 and it comes with a 5 year warranty (but not for burn in) but I could enjoy the 83 inch in our space on the wall. My wife doesn't like the Magic remote (no backlight and the arrow cursor annoys her) So our choice is to stick with this TV (and I do love the brightness) and maybe get an upgraded remote in the future or buy this Sony A90J - Also keep in mind we do not play any games on the tv. We mainly watch sports, news, cable tv shows, HBO movies, and will start streaming Netflix soon. It's just the two of us at almost 60 years old. We know we want an OLED panel - but it feels weird to buy this Sony with 2 year old technology. Also, we have a new wonderful Sonos Arc, subwoofer, & a pair on One SL's for fantastic surround sound, so the TV speakers will be turned off. So what do you think is the right choice ??? I would really value your opinion. Thank you in advance ! Guy

@BipBopBoopBopBam 3 жыл бұрын

I can afford the a90j but prefer the picture of a80j... why?.. the a80j just seems to have more depth which makes it pop more overall. I first noticed this on ''Sony A90J vs A80J - 2021 XR Bravia OLED Comparison'' by 'Tech with KG' But also noticed on other videos. I think the a90js extra brightness is sacrificing overall detail at times for specular HDR highlights, which can be noticeably better than a80j..but overall the a80js picture just has more depth and it bothers me that the a90j doesn't have both for the price they are asking. I would rather buy the a80j based off what ive seen so far.. maybe im crazy and its all in my head LOL.. idk...

Great video! Quick question - I found a 55" a90j open box in perfect condition, but missing screws for the stand. It's $1900 so definitely a lot cheaper than new. How difficult would you say it would be to get the screws? There's not really a stud where I'm putting the TV so not really an option to wall mount.

@@KevonMayers max I can do is 55 inch, and the smallest stand position posible. Because my stand is 52 inches wide. So even if I wanted for a95k I can’t do it, it’s stand is too wide. And A90K 48 is $1500 without heat sink, other than that I believe it’s a downgrade, so you recommend getting the A90J over the C1 for sure? Sorry brother, I’ve just been contemplating this for over two weeks sales have been so good, especially $850 with taxes and everything on the LG C1 48 inches. So price is over $1300 difference.

@KevonMayers 2 жыл бұрын

@@yera1239 For me it was worth it, picture quality was better. However with a $1300 difference you have to consider if that's worth it to you for how long you'll keep the TV. The C1 was great for gaming, the image was just very dim to my eyes, and I do more than just gaming with the TV. It just didn't wow me, I kept playing with settings and couldn't exactly get what I was looking for. Gaming mode was especially dim for the room I have the TV in. They're both great TVs overall though, so you can't really go wrong either way.

This was a great review. Well done. One question though.... In your opinion does the A90J get bright enough for sports? That's one of my concerns with OLEDS.

@BTheInstaller 3 жыл бұрын

Yeah, I think people complain about full screen brightness for sports. I "love" my oleds for sports, hockey, soccer... NFL is mainly my sport... all look amazing. Your source is the problem with them but if you can keep direct window reflection off the tv, you'd be fine. But some like the blinding brightness of LED, I just prefer the true black ⚫ of oled so it's like 50/50 for sports but movies and gaming OLED look way better.
