hope mine does not kena... my warranty is expiring on 14 june 2025.

besides, did u check with sony, how much to repair?

i am afraid of sony tv's longevity but seriously for TV, sony is my only choice which i cannot accept other brands, i may still go with sony anytime.

bravia 5 should be a decent choice, i saw it in person and comparing to bravia 9 which i saw in the sony centre, i would say that it is not too far off, both due to the limitation of mini-LED and not OLED, none of them can achieve true black and still have blooming.

personally i will only buy OLED though becos the picture quality is day and night difference comparing to the mini-LED. it is something that one can immediate tell the difference when they see a OLED and mini-led TV side by side.

Yes wide viewing angle is also the greatest advantage especially for big family with ppl view the tv from different angle.
Even u make ur kids stand at the side as punishment, they can still ‘enjoy’ the tv. 🤪

And oled tv is using dc dimming instead of pwm so no flickering at all, better for keys actually.

Not to mention, OLED utilises less electricity than lcd. So save on electricity bill also.

X85L is within your budget.

But if possible, always consider OLED. The experience is day and night difference comparing to LCD even mini-led.

Even streaming content or free air channel can also experience the difference due to the true black and high contrast.

not really. OLED is not bright enough this statement has been not so much an issue nowadays.

my 2021 model of A80J (OLED) sony tv serves me well even during day time without the need to close the curtain.

and the high contrast and true black are something that once u experience u can never go back.

if budget constraint, then yes, LCD is still an option, but comes to ultimate experience, OLED is still the best.

and advice is also: dun try to experience OLED in the first place if u dun intend to spend the budget for it. becos u will be sold by it immediately.

i had the similar mindset previously that LCD is actually not bad, and why need to spend money to go for OLED.

But ever since i had experienced, i know why the extra money is worthwhile to spend.

dun recommend that. they are using OEM panels from other manufacturers and rebrand it only and sell at slightly cheaper price, but the picture quality is never good enough...

even their monitors may seems to be cheap but i would rather older brand like viewsonic, price is cheaper but colour in my opinion is even better than dell higher range products U series.
I own them so i know.

4.5m distance is very far leh… u sure ur measure of distance got no prob? Ur bungalow must be real big.

4.5m even 75 inch is too small for that.

Just 2m distance alone 55-inch just barely enough.
With 65-inch only considered just nice.

4.5m u can image what size needed.

Nothing to do with settings but probably something to do with ur eyes I would say.

Normal lcd and oled the difference is day and night even normal free air broadcast content can tell the difference.

Just use YouTube to play any oled testing 4k or 8k video can tell the difference also.
