Thank you KG

It was perfect trimmed down, thanks. You're right about it being better quality, a bit shorter for people once it's no longer live 👌

Whoever that Cypher guy is, he must clearly work for Sony because he was sweating the whole live stream that the QN900D was holding it's own.

the lines were because the shutter speed of the camera and sony TVs dont play nice sometimes. That said there is DSE on my unit but it doesn't look like that its slightly noticeable in content its in the middle of the screen kinda splotchy again hard to notice unless you pan the sky and you really look for it, ive seen way worse id say its passable for LCD DSE.

Do you think it's fair to rate, The 65 inch, the same as the 85. When you say the blooming and the contrast is nowhere near as good to oled? Because most people want 75 or 85, When comparing to a oled for size.

@@valley3 Its fair to evaluate the Bravia 9 as a 65 inch yes, will the 85 inch be better no doubt, close to OLED people have to stop thinking about it that way its just never gonna happen It is the technology, OLED TVs don't bloom of course so no ones comparing that, but it will never hit the same contrast of an OLED there will always be a noticeable difference millions of self emissive pixels that turn themselves on and off instantly with no delay you won't match that contrast with Mini LED ever I don't care how refined and good the backlight system is its just not realistic to expect that from Mini LED.

@TechWithKG Now, what advantage would you say? The bravia 9 has over oled Or is the oled, just more superior for color and brightness In any room scenario. Sun-drenched or not.

@TechWithKG And does 4000 knit not matter? Even if a reference monitor says it does for directors intent. Isn't that what they are chasing?

​@@valley3 Depends on the OLED. Lets just say S95D, A95L, or G4 for example I would say SDR brightness Mini LED has that usually thats likely the case here with the Bravia 9. HDR would likely be much closer outside of high average picture level scenes thats where I could see Bravia 9 separate. Larger HDR highlights could be in favor of Bravia 9. For color I would say G4 is similar to a top Mini LED like Bravia 9, but QD OLED like S95D and A95L colors would be better than Bravia 9. Hope this helps.

Thank you. It doesn’t hit 4000 nits and Sony never claimed it would, they said 50% brighter than X95L which is 1500-1800 nits.

They actually did claim 4000 nits but not full screen. Only on a 10-15% window aka specular highlights not overall screen brightness. That’s why they have been saying that it’s brightness with purpose. 4000 nits full screen would be a bloom fest

Nah they didn't, you won't find a clip of them saying that or an article of them saying that all they said was this and the 4000 nit mastering monitor have similar backlight technology. Anything else you heard was maybe from someone who got that message mixed up.

@@TechWithKG Yes. They said watch tech from kg video when he first so the bravia 9 , he said it was some scenes the oled was better , Brian also and fomo also , both saying it doesn't beat oled in everything like infinite contrast even kg says the contrast isn't as good as oled you can see some blooming so it doesn't beat oled in everything.

@@TechWithKG50% brighter is actually 2600 as x95L did hit 1600-1700. B9 hits up to 2900.

Wow, thank you your support is greatly appreciated! This was a fun comparison to do glad you enjoyed it!

@@TechWithKG yes, so helpful KG 👌 I was sorry you forgot to demo Sea of Thieves as a DSE, HDR10 and general brightness test during the game segment as that game is really good for testing those things. Some other time perhaps. Thank you KG 👍

I would always choose the B9 😊 but when you can watch it yourself, especially the difference in the brightness between these two TVs is insane! and you have to see the contrast ratio of the B9 yourself then you know how good this TV is and how close it comes to Oled. the best of both worlds Ps : don’t forget the Sony Cashback for the B9. You can save a lot of money 🎉

@@MBFly25 thanks man, appreciate it! The Bravia 9 is not available yet in the store in the Netherlands, would indeed like to see the picture quality and the difference in contrast between this mini led and an oled. If the difference is not that big, I will probably go for the bravia 9 until Sony decides to create an 83 inch QD-OLED in the future.

@@ItsEmreos the rollout for the B9 Starts in June. They should be in store when the EM starts. But ask your local tech shop. I’m pretty sure that they know exactly when the B9 will be delivered.

Comparisons are in the works for vs G4 and vs S95D

Why spending that money for lcd TV ! Sony is overpriced and has lots of other TVs cheaper and does the same thing

I would say yes

I have the brighest room on earth and LG G3 is plenty bright enough, coming from a previous LED TV. This is a myth, OLED is just better and as bright now.

Thank you, yes I’ll have a QN900D review going more in depth on these things. In regards to SDR brightness the 900D won’t be as bright as the Bravia 9

Thanks again Shawn, I definitely will show the other modes in the full review. 8K at 85 inches is really good I seen a few myself actually running 8k content it was really great.

Pretty similar in that regard

Only did that for the chat requesting I try other local dimming options to see how they act, I would normally just leave it alone but the people wanted to see it

It was an LG C4, it was there for me to look at mainly I only brought it in to show people that were losing their minds in chat thinking any Mini LED could beat the contrast or match the contrast of an OLED its just not possible. Doesn't mean they are bad TVs its just part of the strengths and weaknesses if your stacking them up.

You deff made the right decision. Being a game/theater room I’m sure it’s in a light controlled room? A95L is still king unless you’re in a super bright room

Depends on what you want

bravia 9 x master drive backlight technology is insanely good

If gaming is important to you, I would choose the A95L. Oled is better for gaming and the Bravia 9 doesn’t have the best looking game mode. As a non expert, I would argue that Qd-Oled is as good as any tech in this Bravia 9. It’s apples to oranges. If I were you, I would at least wait until more in depth reviews and some side by side comparisons to see what picture you prefer.

I’d lean A95L unless you need extremely bright SDR viewing

Hi Shawn, to be honest I didn’t see this, I thought it was clear that Bravia 9 was the brightest TV in the comparison by a good margin. Overall unless you need 8K I think that the Bravia 9 did a lot of things better for a lesser price tag. However if you’re going to utilize 8k or 4k 240hz gaming you can’t get that of course with Bravia 9. Hope this helps. Thanks for your support.

Bravia 7 will be solid I have been informed it uses the same local dimming algorithm as the Bravia 9, but obviously it won't be as good because of the new backlight system that is in place.

@@TechWithKG thanks, I'm more interested if the 7 is a huge jump from my 85 x90L as I'm not going to spend that 5k on a TV until compression on streaming gets much much better! But correcting motion blur/smearing /judder and upscaling is so important with streaming services. Sony is trustworthy to handle clarity and color already, but my x90L still has some smearing and motion blur in dark scenes. I think Sony's mini led helps that quite a bit no??

@@claykeough7898 It might be better it should be at least a bit better but to be honest you will still probably see some of that with Mini LED TVs

@@TechWithKG I really appreciate the feedback. I'm mostly happy with my x90L so I'll prob just wait another year or two thanks to your knowledge. 🍻

Yet people keep buying very flawed OLED tech ?

Sorry lol that was kind of like a "you had to be there" stream it was a late night stream just exploring the Bravia 9 for the first time this one was much more on point doing another later today which will also be on point! I gotta say Bravia 9 is living up to the hype for me personally really liking this TV.

That’s a huge price difference I’d just get G4 no question about it that price is crazy for you, SDR is solid on the G4. Bravia 9 SDR is brighter though.

Around the 34:03 mark, I noticed that the B9 is able to display more stars with significantly less blooming.

I can't remember the whole stream lol but I think we had it in local dimming high which will cut blooming the most but reduce highlight brightness so that is probably what you witnessed. Medium = show more highlight brightness and show a little blooming

Sorry about not playing that moon video I watched it after that would have been cool to show, I’ll try and get in the final review if I remember.

@@TechWithKG no problem but yeah that demo is great for oleds and a good test of local dimming

It’s about 2,000 nits and BRAVIA 9 is about 2,900 max hdr brightness

@@TechWithKG bro , QN900b or QN900D which one is good for nit ?

D is brighter and sustains its brightness longer with full screen brightness

@@TechWithKG thank you

LOL yeah ok

@@badpuppy3it is true

Thank you! 50% productivity I would lean the 8K because that screen resolution gives you a lot of screen real estate to work with if you want that is really nice, not sure if that would fit your personal work flow better or not but it is something to consider if you are looking at this as a productivity monitor. I know you said your leaning QN900D already I figure thats probably why? If you play pc games you do have the ability to do 4k 240hz with the QN900D so thats a nice little feature. As for watching movies & tv shows I thought this is where Bravia 9 excelled over the QN900D the most.

@@TechWithKG Thank you for the quick response. Yes the screen resolution is one aspect, so you guessed right. The gaming is maybe 15% console and 10% PC. Most of the games is not fast paced games like First person shooters; more crpg, rts, space games and so on. On the productivity aspect so it a-lot of static images, a lot of windows and tabs open and different programs. I'm leaning towards the 85" qn900d. I like that it has 4 2.1 hdmi ports and it doesn't hurt that it looks amazing, the design looks so good. But at the same time the Bravia looked sooo good in your video. If it would have been very close then the choice would have been easy and it would have been the qn900d but it looked like the b9 was quite a bit better. I have a CX 77 inch right now and I'm very tired of the abl, it is a really good tv and my first oled but i have realized that i don't only watch movies on my tv, its only one quarter of my usage.

@@Qulixz Definitely understand being tired of the ABL for productivity work

Correct

If I raised the exposure a bit more you'd see it, if only I could record through my eyes lol

KZfaq shows more blooming so we would definitely see it now.

Were you on angle?

QN95D is basically a 4K version of the QN900D same amount of dimming zones etc. QN900D has a better processor.

Though it has a better processor, it’s not a native 4K model. FOMO did the same mistake by comparing it to other 4K lcd sets from other manufacturers. Why not compare 4K models? 8K is dead and no other Tv companies are selling except Samsung 😂

@@amitavraja3385 8K isn't dead. I have two 8K TV's and I will ONLY buy 8K TV's. And when Nvidia releases their 5000 series graphics cards, 8K TV's will be in more demand.

@@amitavraja3385 QN95 screen coating kills contrast for me, its the same as the coating they used on the QN90D this year I wasn't a fan I like the QN900D way better.

@@amitavraja3385LG has released the 8K Z3 WOLED TV with MLA, so 8K is not quite dead yet.

Wrong. Just wrong.

@@Minty1982AM What, my facts are wrong? 🤣😂🤡

Native contrast of bravia is around 5000:1and 250,000:1 with local dimming on and ambient contrast of Oled is atleast 1,000,000:1, so the black level of any oled is atleast 4xbetter than the best mini led tv

@@Bklynblaze1 no, your opinions are wrong. Facts cannot be disputed, but you did not state any facts.

@@Minty1982AM 100% facts my man.

OLED is a dead end technology. Samsung would rather invest in getting a Micro LED TV to the mass market.

I remember they said the same thing about the X95K when it came out. That it was revolutionary.

Couldn't agree more.

I would have bought an 83” A95L.

OLED is the dying technology dude. In a few years, OLED TV's will have gone the way of Plasma. The market will be segmented between Mini LED (with 100,000 dimming zones) and Micro LED which will eat OLED's lunch.

Yeah OLED Is the one that is dying.

9 definitely is a wow factor TV it passes the eye test for sure and content is incredible on it, it’s got its pros and cons for sure but it’s a great TV overall.
