You won't find a 75" TV for under 10k with decent image quality. You certainly won't find a 85" TV for under 10k either. If the size of a display is what you are looking for at under 10k, then your only choice are UST projectors - which you shouldn't expect a good gaming experience on since they usually have quite high input lag.

Since you have up to 10k budget for audio setup, forget soundbars entirely. Buy a decent receiver like a Denon x3800H and a pair of bookshelf speakers, add and build it into a multi-channel surround setup over time.

You won't get an OLED or QD-OLED for RM10k+ at 83" screen size, that's impossible even if you go for second hand market.

Samsung Q70d
- Edge-lit LED LCD TV with no local dimming so don't expect inky blacks, despite using the "quantum dot" moniker its color gamut and volume is actually pretty low.
- Peak brightness capability is only ~500 nits, this is only half the minimum HDR10 standard of 1000 nits! HDR is basically useless on this TV in any room, dark or bright.
- Its upscaler is also pretty poor for 2024's standards.
- Very low input lag, great for gaming.
- Tizen OS actually is surprisingly pretty good these days.

Sony X90L
- Mini-LED lit LCD TV with local dimming, so it does achieve some pretty impressive (for a direct lit LED LCD anyway) contrast ratios. But blooming can be visible in a very dark room since there aren't a lot of LED zones.
- Peak brightness can hit 1100 nits, hitting the required standard of 1000 nits from HDR10. This TV is not a light cannon, but is bright enough for most people's rooms with some curtains.
- Good color volume coverage and gamut achieves >90% for DCI P3.
- Still the industry's best upscaler for low resolution content.
- So-so input lag figures for 2024 standards, but still good for gaming.
- Android (GoogleTV now) is becoming more and more trash with each update.

Between these 2, I'd suggest the Sony as it's a more well rounded TV than the Samsung.

Ah yes you're right, forgot about the x95L. Thanks for the correction.

You want 85" at 10k+/-, there's not else better than the X90L at this price point.
