Great purchase at that 77 size. Have a 55 A80K and a 65 A95L. 77 inch to 83 A80L for the size and money sounds fantastic. My use case very similar to yours. Football fantastic on both tvs and gaming. PS5. And no noticeable dimming on either. Robert is right about not wanting to leave the house 🤣. With the A95. Felt same way with A80K too.

@@zr1cvette what ! Did Robert really said that about a95l or x ? 😃

@@zr1cvette Last year when the A80k came out I decided time go with the 77 inch C2 which I also love but the A80L is just a step above. I hope you are enjoying the A95L that is my dream tv but I couldn’t justify the hefty price tag lol.. im hoping in the next 3 or 4 years when I upgrade again that Sony has QD-Oled for their mid series OLED’s. With my A80L I don’t want to leave the house I even went out and bought a theater style reclining sectional that will be here in a couple days to go along with my A80L.

@@fw3689 OLED is fantastic. I have a 55 A80K myself. The 80L definitely steps it up a notch with XR Clear and is brighter.

@@fw3689 funny I recommended a C2 to my uncle last year. He really likes it. Great tv. It’s his second tv in a 2 tv setup for sports. Needed the center stand to move it around.

You ARE GOING TO LOVE IT for Dish content! Let us know how much better your TV shows look after the upgrade!

Can’t miss with Costco! Going to snag that 77” A80L in the next few days - can’t wait

What does it mean 2 years of Sony Bravia , i got sony Bravia 43inch model and 5 credits but i dont know what 2 years of Sony bravia means .

@@dedskin1I know for a fact unused credits expire in given time just don’t recall how long.

@@tbecket4890 2 years i think . But if that is it its just purchasing Movies , that is Bravia Core , not Sony Bravia , its called Bravia Core Streaming Service , and once you buy , you have it on that TV for as long as you have that TV is that right .

Which options were you choosing from before buying? I’m choosing between x90l 75 or a80l 65 (same price here) Considering mini leds too but I don’t know much about Hisense and tcl

A80L has my vote but if you’re willing to wait till Black Friday the 83” G4 will be the leader in 3D pop this year

What’s up brotha. I also have a 77” A80J. It’s a great set. I’m trying to upgrade to the A80L though.

Exactly same question? Did you decide on one of them or bought one??

Oh oh oh ohhh, I’m you 4 months after. Same boat, how is it so far? Same models, same size as the price is the same

Which one did you buy and how is it?

​@@Cons2911 Not OP but still sharing my choice. I am going for 75X90L this coming Wednesday most probably. Have seen many demos so far and though OLED is better in side by side comparison and maybe result in better picture quality experience but that was noticeable primarily into dark or dull scenes mostly, else X90L was also equally good and detailed enough as A80L in bright scenes but at home you're going to have one TV whichever you buy and while watching content you're not going to notice if you're missing anything unless you're still not convinced that it's good whatever you finalized and still looking for its flaws. And I read it in comments only by someone that screen size difference you're going to experience and enjoy in every scene while better quality of OLED image is applicable to only certain content and scenes and I also felt that it's relevant. Plus I am moving from a 50" LED TV to 75" FALD so I am getting an improvement only and it's Sony this time so expecting it to be a sizeable improvement. And I also noticed that while watching movies or series, I am not noticing the details and rather enjoying the story unless it's a very low quality content and I hope that's the case with everyone. So unless I can buy 77" OLED which is almost 70-80% more here in India still (which I hope I could have afford), 75" X90L seems to be a good choice price to performance ratio wise. And to keep myself happy and convinced in favor of X90L, I won't be worried about Burn in if it still exists.

@@Cons2911 Not OP but still replying as I am going for 75X90L coming Wednesday. Earlier I had 65A80L in my mind but once I thought about bigger screen size and the experience it might provide, I couldn't leave that imagination behind. I have seen many demos so far and though OLED performs better than FALD in dark or low brightness scenes when compared side by side but X90L was equally good in brighter scenes and A80L sometimes looked dim and dull in bright scenes thought it might not feel that way in a light controlled room. Someone in comments only mentioned that you will experience bigger screen in every scene however better quality of OLED will extend its technological benefit to some scenes only and I somehow agree with that. I would have loved to go for 77" OLED only if I could afford but here in India, prices of that are almost 70-80% higher than 65" and haven't came down much like smaller sizes. And at home you won't realise the difference when you don't have anything else to compare to unless you're intentionally looking for flaws as I noticed I am not noticing details and all while watching movies and series and rather enjoying the story unless it's a low or bad quality content. And I am anyway moving from a 50" LED to 75" FALD that too Sony so I hope it's a big jump anyway. And just to convince my mind, I won't have to be bothered about Burn in too if it still exists...😛

In a dark theater room, C3 will be more than bright enough. I have a 77 C2 in dark room and it's very bright to me.

@@Icipher4 thanks I really don't think I can stomach the extra cash

How do you like it so far? Thinking about it over the a95l 77”

Which options were you choosing from before buying?

@@Cons2911 i was choosing between X95L 85“ and 83“ A80L. Went with A80L, no regrets at all.

@@gallynuts it’s the best 83“ TV on the market imo, and yes, better than any 85“ LED as well. I love it. No regrets at all. Picture is stunning.

@@denissssss8579 funny story (sad actually), I was thinking a80l 65, but then what if I go bigger like x95l 85 (they don’t have smaller size here) But it’s a lot more expensive right… so, I decided to save some. Here’s the thing, the extra cost would have come from my crypto (so I need to sell that time), so I didn’t, then crypto prices dropped..and made me think, wows should have gotten the bigger tv instead of losing the Monet lmao

Go for the 83" A90J, it is indeed a great bang for the buck and highly recommended STILL.

did you buy one sir? which one

Not at all - the "over sharpening" is only noticeable when next to a reference monitor HOWEVER it is absolutely natural looking and is really a MUST for streaming any content as it cleans up bad low bitrate KZfaq better than any TV sold.

Immersion , x95L is like 95% of a95L

In a bright room definitely X95L because the ambient light reduces the power of infinite contrast but if you do any PS5 or XSX gaming again the A95L. However, if you are coming from an LCD TV, then definitely go for immersion in the X95L because you'll get both size and image quality improvements!

i have 65inch and its HUGE . You do know that if you come closer to the screen your 77inch looks exactly the size of my 65inch , that is say 20% difference , so if you are at 3 feet , i just go for 2,5 feet and we have same viewing size or properly said same FOV , or Field of view . Huge TVs , and i take everything beyond 50inch as huge , are not made for gaming , they are made for big rooms , and when you go past 65inch that is Home Theater area . Your 77inch is fantastic im sure for movies and stuff , but it is not bigger or smaller FOV then my 65inch , nor is my 65inch smaller or bigger then 50inc . you just come closer . And there is a benefit to a smaller Display , PC monitors show that . Im not sure why , i have Samsung UD970 some 32inch or so professional monitor , of course it gives better image then my 65inch Philips , or your 77inch . Way better image , for example its a 10 bit panel , not 8+2 FRC , native 10bit with 100% sRGB coverage of colors and 98% of Adobe RGB , those colors are not on any TV , and i know Eizo monitors that do the same thing , and fan fact , when im looking at it , i look at it from 1 feet , that is FOV of a 77inch TV in my living room . And i can go for 80inch also i just need to get closer .

@dedskin1 - My living room is 16'x18', and the wall I had the TV on is the 18' wall. Empty on both sides. My entertainment center is 70" wide and it still has a few inches gap each side with my 75" Sony. I sit about 9-9.5 feet away. Before this I had a 27" CRT tv, then Vizio 55" with large bezels and I thought that was huge but got used to it real quick. Then it's the 65" Samsung KS8000 which is about the same size due to its thin bezels and I thought that was small. I have this 75" Sony since 2019. You probably missed what Fomo said, 7-8' full immersion with 80+" TV. I am a little undersized. My Sony was top of the line TV before they introduced the master series but it's plenty bright. In fact, I developed a headache watching it with lights and eco mode off so I had to switch both on. Overall, as expensive as 83" is right now, I will be ok with 77". Having too bright of a TV isn't always good thing as far as I am concerned.

@@richlandzee8686 Your TV is still premium , i have 10 year old LG , if not older , 43inch . its old LCD panel , but it has inky blacks , no joke , it has zone dimming . Fantastic TV . But what i said is that you can get closer , if someone said you have to be this far from TV ,why would you listen to that , you have monitors that you watch from 1 feet . Only the Sound plays a role ,But there is a problem , all speakers want to be as far away from the wall as possible best sound in any room is in the center , far away from walls . You can try that you will see . Now since TV must be on the wall , that rules out the sound , you wont get any kind of good sound with speakers next to TV that is on the wall . You will get decent sound if you have some sound bar or some speakers , but they need to be far away from the wall . This is why in home theaters they put speakers in the walls so as to be flash , that way you get better sound , but still the sound remains the best in the center of the room , becase that is where reflected sound is quiet so you get clearest sound possible . They dont tell that to buyer when they install the sound system , they give them 7 or 10 speakers , like more is better , This is Atmos , this is Dolby , this is awsome and it is , its very good , but it would be much better if it was in the center of the room , but the TV negates that so you are left with speakers in wall or next to TV . And in that case you can come closer . There is no reason that i see that demands you be 10 feet from the TV . Why . I am 1 feet away from the monitor as im wringing , no problem . So i dont get why 10 feet . Who chose that number and why .

Just get an A90J..its a master series

@@mrwalker6026 you mean the top of the line TVs , yeah no joke , they are all good even from Hisense , top of the line is top of the line , its good , best it can be . No brainer .

Which one did you end up with sir? I’m on a similar boat, oled vs bigger x90l

we don't get the X955 but we do get the 100" U8K and YES for $2999 I'd definitely get the larger U8K for my living room! Kids will love it, guests will be blown away and it's just a fun size in any lighting condition.

Correct but for gaming, you gotta go OLED for image quality

Yes true. My living room is so bright with natural light .

A80l

Sony!

Take your time too now your TV.

I'd always go to a store and see beforehand if I enjoy the picture of a TV, not just blindly ordering something. The X95L should look way way better than what you are describing, but sounds like its not being set and calibrated well, or maybe MiniLED just isn't for you.

@nahlho,, either you don't know anything about PQ, motion handling, or you got a bad tv, i too have x95L, its way ahead of any tv, i also have 77 g3, and all i can say sports, 4k hdr, 1080p, even 720p content look better on x95L than g3

@@vivantek8669 awesome, could you share the best picture setting? I like a bright, shiny, clear, sharp, smooth, and colorful picture quality.

98" Sony X90L it is!

that's a good TV, but open box concerns me unless you get it with a no questions asked 2 year warranty

Yea man Sony prices svck. :/

As an owner of an A95L I highly recommend it. You can’t go wrong with either of those. I went A95L because I have an HTA 3000 love their software, processing and am not wall mounting. If you’re mounting G3 has aesthetic advantage there.

@@zr1cvette A95L is $5k and the LG G3 both 77inch are $1.5k apart in cost. It’s hard to believe the A95k is $1.5 better to most people.

@@zr1cvette Typo, meant G3. My bad.

@@latingringo89 G3 isn’t a bad choice either. I don’t feel you can go wrong. Just telling you my thoughts and why I went A95 personally. But a G3 if I wasn’t a Sony guy would definitely be one of my picks. Or a C3 even. I like LG a lot personally. Think they’re second best brand and have basically perfected OLED at this point.

why do you say that? TELL US!

@@stopthefomo brighter, and less more inputlag then sony! i have the lg g3 77 inch

I'm sure he meant to say the now defunct Gsync "module" proprietary chipset that's no longer included in monitors and never available on any TV. But come on, "Modular" sounds so close to "module" give the guy a break! And he does have the legit 4090 for his PC gaming because he's less about building PCs and more about just gaming on them! Me on the other hand...
