I must have missed the pink! I don't think it was offered where I live in Australia, so you must be luckier than me!

@@gadgetguytech it is exclusive on T-Mobile here in the states and unlocked on Moto's site

Haha, sounds like you're a very loyal Samsung fan! I plan on getting more Sony TVs in for direct comparisons but I am very happy with my Q95C - it's an amazing TV.

I own Samsung Tv. Love it just wish Samsungs had Dolby Vision

Really appreciate the feedback. Would have shown the TV much more but we had lots of issues with the screen strobing. The Q900D changes frequency dynamically and it really messes up our camera which is set to 50hz. As we only had a limited time with the TV we couldn’t adjust for each shot so when it came to usable footage we had less than expected. A boring explanation I know, and would have otherwise shown much more of the TV than me! Next video is on the 98in Q80D and that has more b-roll or the TV.

That’s terrible! I’m not sure where you are in the world, in Australia this would’ve been covered under warranty.

​​@@gadgetguytech Same here in india. .

I bought my QN900B open box with 4 year warranty for $3600 last year. Been 100% worth it to see the difference between 4k and 8K. The picture is noticeably sharper up to 8 feet away.. If the tv just randomly dies, I sure hope it's before my warranty runs out..

@@gadgetguytechfor 8k they should offer min 2 years. The entire panel went bad. My friend is the 2!: largest independent Sony dealer in the USA. He sells Samsung frames but never recommend them as a primary Tv. He has way too many issues with them. My office QN90a flickers unhorse I unplug the HDMI source. I think Samsung sources some of its electronic completes from questionable sub suppliers. I think their overall quality and reliability controls are clearly inferior to Sony’s

Sony really does have some great technology, its colour science is the best in the industry. Backlight zone numbers can vary depending on the size of the panel too, so there will be less on a 65 inch screen compared to an 85 inch, for example. But you are correct that the zones need to be managed well to be very effective. The Q 900 D looked quite good during the time I had with it, I didn’t see any obvious issues with blooming or light streaking. Thanks for letting us know about the Sony ZK9.

Should have really just waited for the next Sony 8K TV even if it takes another couple years... the Z9K cannot even produce a 8K native picture.. It literally produces a 5k image and upscales it to 8K when playing pc games and watching 8K videos

Thanks for watching! Adaptive sound pro is actually pretty cool. It’s an AI technology that optimises the sound based on the characteristics of your room as well as the audio itself. It remasters the sound in real time to highlight things like voices or effects to ensure that they’re balanced. Hope this helps!

@@gadgetguytech thanks but i need to know more, so what’s the difference between adaptive sound pro and adaptive sound+ and active voice amplifier and active voice amplifier pro which ones would be louder for Bluetooth?

@@ExclusiveMembersClub OK I see what you mean - it can be confusing with all of the different audio technologies, and some are only supported on certain models. Will do my best. First off, which type of sound enhancement is available will depend on the TV's processor. The one in the QN900D - the NQ8 Gen3 - is the most powerful, so it can offer more advanced audio processing. Adaptive Sound Pro is essentially about remastering the sound depending on the enviroment your TV is in. So it senses the room acoustics, as well as ambient noise, then rebalances the sound - this can also vary depending on what you're listening to. It uses AI to do so. Adaptive Sound+ is a lesser version of this, running on a TV with a slower chip. I imagine it doesn't rely on machine learning (AI) for this. Next, there's Voice Amplifier Pro, which works in tandem with Adaptive Sound Pro. It also uses Machine learning (AI) to analyze the audio you are listening to, specifically to identify and separate vocal tracks from mixed audio (music, SFX, etc) and enhance audio so you don't miss a word. In the context of Bluetooth, were you asking about a bluetooth external speaker connection, and which would be louder? These don't really have any impact on the volume, but rather the quality of the sound you are listening to - they rebalance the sound. With an external BT speaker, the Adaptive Sound Pro enhancements might not be as noticeable as if using the internal speakers + a Samsung soundbar with Q-symphony also in operation.

@@gadgetguytech oh so if it separates sound from vocals doesn’t it become less loud than adjusting every frequency of sound all in one ?

@@ExclusiveMembersClub No this shouldn't reduce the overall volume but it will make the vocals sound louder relative to the other sounds.

Yes, there are plenty of similarities between this model and the last couple years. When seeing last years side by side with this years, I really do see the difference with the quality of the AI upscaling, however if you’re not watching a lot of standard definition content to begin with, this feature may not matter all that much. Also, the way smooths out motion with some types of sports footage is better too. I do like how it makes the settings for you, especially in gaming mode, but I also don’t mind doing this myself. It’s a step up, but in ways that might not matter to some. Thanks so much for watching in your comment!

I have huge hopes for the next Sony 8K tv given how much of an improvement the X95L and Bravia 9 have been. It will be very expensive for awhile though since it will definitely launch at 10K and it might not even come out next year... .I bought the open Box QN900B for $3200 last year and don't regret the purchase for my gaming tv. This is obviously still the best option for anybody looking to buy an 8K TV right now for gaming without overpaying. Rtings rated the QN900B an 8.2 and QN900C an 8.2 basically confirming there was little improvement

What makes you say that?

@@gadgetguytech the snapdragon 888 is gawd Motorola is what you buy for your little kids

Like a calculator

That chip is worse than my calculators chip from 1999. Buy that trash in 2024

Great comment, thanks for letting me know. I will pass this on to Motorola and see what I can find out.

@@gadgetguytech much appreciated on the community forums they have been giving the same scripted answers for the 3 razrs I have owned,don't get me wrong I really like the razrs but I would like the os updated quicker....

The Australian box does come with a 68W charger inside. Not sure which region you’re in, but it might be different there.

You can put a case on it, and it should do a pretty good job of protecting the phone. There’s already a screen protector on the inner screen that you shouldn’t put another protector over. The outer screen might be able to have a screen protector on it though.

Thanks so much for your comments - good point, probably safest to go with a darker colour to avoid it staining over time! Thanks for watching :-)

That's what moto thinks - they did some market research and found that more people preferred a telephoto versus a wide angle...

The model I had is a pre-production unit. It holds position quite well, but it does flop closed once it gets to about 30 degrees or so. The production model should have a slightly stiffer hinge I would think. This happened last year too when I had a pre-release version, where the hinge was quite floppy, and the final version was much better.

Moto said that more people wanted telephoto but it's a same they couldn't squeeze in both lenses.

Telephoto is why I ordered it.

Nice! Me too 😊

Not bad at all, I like it!

I actually like it too for the grippyness. I can’t say it really feels like leather though. Generally, phones seem to slip out of my hands if not in a case. The vegan leather also resists scratches. You might actually be able to get away with using the razr without a case as it has harder gorilla glass victus on its screens too.

anything's better than my flip 5. that thing can slide across cement it's so slippery

@@wmurch3 I know right! I have one too and it's very slippery. Needs a case...

Better than glass which cracks after a fall

It's a bit of a marketing term. The way I see it is that if you like it, you can probably use it without a case, but if not, you can always put a case over it and forget it's there...

Yes, that's true, it's a funny term and really just marketing speak. 😄

Lether can also be made from fruits and plants

No, the term is correct since it's made of real vegan skin. 🤣

​@@mahaloppa9616 Oh that's a good choice then

Nah it called vegam because it's fake. Just like all the vegan's meaning of life

It's a affordable flip

Better than the Flip5 but the Flip6 is will be announced in early July, so will be interesting to watch.

It was a quick one but thank you! We will publish a full review on GadgetGuy after a few more days with it.

Because this video could only be one minute I didn’t go into the AI features all that much. There’s both Google’s Gemini AI, as well as Moto’s own AI. This will do things like listen to conversations and summarise, translate languages, as well as provide a ‘catch me up’ feature that reads your notifications and possibly emails and gives you a summary.

True, projectors are perfect in the right environments...

Great feedback, thanks for sharing it. I didn't use an edge trimmer when I tested it, and didn't have issues with the boundary wire, but I can see why you would. New mowers are on the market now that use AI or 'beacons' to get rid of the boundary wires, which is a needed improvement. Which model did you end up choosing?

Great colour science on the Sony X90L so you won't go wrong with it.

Hi, and thanks for your comment! Depending on where you are in the world, this model has likely been superseded now as it is from 2023. Also, there are different model names in different countries sometimes.

Bravia 9. QN900D.

No major TV panels made in the US. Biggest manufacturers are TCL, LG, Samsung, BOE, Sharp, Kyocera, etc from China, Korea, Taiwan and Japan.

Thanks so much for watching and glad you liked the video. Yes it’s definitely something that needs to be seen to understand how much improved the anti-glare coating is and what it means for people who love OLED but have bright rooms.

I watched your vidéo and I've been surprised that you made no comment on the reduced size videos that were displayed on the screen during the maki g of your vidéos. I don't know if these videos were 4k or not but if they were 4k it is totally anormal that they were not displayed in full screen size. 4k videos are normally displayed in full screen size on a 4k screen. I have the 77" Oled QN77S95D model of this TV and I have this problem, 4k movies aren't displayed in full screen as they should. It is totally abnormal to watch certified 4k movies on a certified 4k TV and see only reduced size pictures but you didn't said a word about it as if you didn't even saw it. I hope that your other reviens are than this one...

@@cverrcv Sorry, I only speak English

@@cverrcv Hi and thanks so much for watching the video and your comment. When you say that the 4K movies are not displayed in full screen, I'm assuming that you mean there are black bars at the top and bottom? This is because movies are made for movie theatre-shaped screens (with a 1:85:1 or 2:35:1 aspect ratio) and not TV screens, which have a less-wide 16:9 aspect ratio. Video that's made for TVs specifically will perfectly fill the screen because they are made with a 16:9 shape, but watching movies made for the cinema will not completely fit on a TV screen. That's why there are black areas that appear on the top and bottom of the movie. This is also called 'letterbox' format. You can 'zoom-in' a movie so it completely fills up the black spaces, but then you loose a bit of the width of the movie on the left and right sides, so TVs normally default to Letterbox format so you don't miss anything. You can change this in your settings so movies fill up the full screen if you prefer. I hope this helps and my apologies if I've misunderstood your comment.

It's amazing how 77in doesn't even seem that big anymore. I just tested the 85-inch Samsung Q900D which seems about the same size. We reviewed it on my site too: www.gadgetguy.com.au/samsung-qn900d-review-neo-qled-8k-tv/

@@gadgetguytech I agree. But for most people, a 77" tv (or 65" wide) is very large. Have an 83" c2 and everything seems small once u go large....

@@michael-4k4000 Yes, very true, 77in is still quite large, especially for people in smaller places like apartments, etc in large cities. For them, 55in is still a great size.

No sponsorship. Why do you say it’s pure garbage? Are you referring to the TV or the video? Also, it’s set up ‘out of the box’ so not calibrated other than through the SmartThings self calibration tool. I wanted it to be as close and experienced to what a consumer could expect when buying it themselves.

There are some fairly decent automatic settings but I like to warm the colour up a bit with the Warm 1 setting for colour temperature. Still exploring the best settings. Dynamic mode is certainly the brightest but a bit artificial looking.

@@gadgetguytech hope you can share your best settings recommendation soon

@@WiljanWiljan Is there a particular thing that you like watching / doing with yours? For example, settings needed for movies, gaming, etc?

Great comment! Good to hear that you're not perceiving any issues with the contrast. I thought it looked amazing relative to the S95C with no coating, and I'd gladly take the anti-reflective benefits versus a small hit to contrast, but to be honest I didn't notice anything really.

Hey thanks for your awesome compliment! I can't honestly say that I've seen much by way of contrast degradation because of the anti-glare coating. Sure, any coating will have some impact, but it's quite negligible compared to the S95C that I use daily. Temp wise, I asked Samsung how they got the extra brightness, and there's no change to the pixel coating chemistry (nano-crystals) but rather increases in voltage, etc that they feel they can use based on how the S95C performs and their learnings from it. So it prob does get a little hotter but within safe margins. I suppose if anything goes wrong due to heat dissipation, they'll need to replace it under warranty anyway. Still, not a problem you'd want to experience! I didn't notice any unusual heat around the back of the panel, however the One Connect Box was not mounted to the stand. If it was, there's still a gap between it and the panel so I don't think it would be a problem. Thanks for watching!

@@gadgetguytech Yoo appreciate your help man that helps me a lot, I’ve never liked and subbed so quick in my life🙏🏼 also man do u plan to make any other videos on the s95D maybe a comparison video, cause everybody would rather get the S90D over the S95D, my theory they simply don’t like the matte screen

Interesting, let us know what you're seeing with this TV in bright rooms. Thanks for your comment.

It's not bad in bright rooms, it's just not as good.

Spotted the LG-fan, how's that colour volume looking?

You're the only one saying this because everybody else is saying the exact opposite and the black on this TV has not been lifted, they are simply just exactly what they should be... as a matter of fact, all the colours of this TV have veen certified by Pantone and this is including the white and black...

- troll😂

Thanks for watching! The anti-reflective coating also prevents internal lights / lamps from being reflected, plus reflections of yourself. I have the 77in S95C from last year and I can see myself in it as my sofa is fairly close to it. The panel is also 20% brighter, which is good for any situation. Also, I don't know if I agree that nobody likes the matte screen. What do you think is better, a shiny black mirror when the TV is off or a matte one? Personal preference but I'd prefer a matte one.

@gadgetguytech yes I agree it was hyperbole and some people like the matte screen. It's like having a giant computer monitor as my tv. I've seen many reviews which demonstrate where the blacks suffer from the screen and where colors were similarly diluted. If the tv is going in a room with tons of light and windows it probably makes sense, but that is not my use case so it's a no-go for me.

@@MrUpscaleman Unlike AR coatings on monitors, etc, this one doesn't have a negative impact on the brightness or the colour, as it is still a Pantone certified screen so very colour accurate, and brighter than last year's model. The new tech means you can now use OLED in a bright room (if that's what you need). For me personally, I have a brighter room but love the OLED look, which means no compromises now vs last year. However, if you don't need it, the 2023 Samsung S95C is a fantastic option and a cheaper price.

@gadgetguytech I have a 77 A95L. It needs to go back for a warranty claim. I need a new TV. I can't decide between another A95L, G4 or Bravia 9. I've ruled out the matte screen.
