Great screen
Even better speakers
Wedge design is unique

The Sony X900E is a great HDR TV that occupies a sweet spot between performance and price. UHD image clarity is excellent
Color performance luscious and its HDR delivery adds just the right level of zing
The X900E is an HDR screen for the rest
Direct LED with local dimming
Excellent motion handling
Unfussy but elegant design
Surprisingly good audio
Best-in-class picture approaches plasma goodness
Excellent black levels

Untested how it will really fit in the home
Mirrored sides could prove distracting

Flick is a little touchy
There's some bloom around peak highlights on black backgrounds
Which could be solved by a greater density of LED backlights (but then the price would rise too). The remote control feels cheap in the hand and Netflix is currently HD-only – though

Direct LED with local dimming, Excellent motion handling, Unfussy but elegant design, Surprisingly good audio
HDR is a bit dim, Rubbery remote, Power brick is inconvenient, No 3D support

Best-in-class picture approaches plasma goodness, Excellent black levels, Rich, vivid color
Built-in speakers make for polarizing look, Ho-hum Smart TV interface, Stand (legs) doesn't feel stable, Pricey
We're astonished the X900B isn't Sony's flagship television … it certainly looks and sounds the part. That this television is able to achieve such excellent black levels and avoid so many edge-lighting pitfalls is a testament to Sony's engineering chops...

While everyone is going curved, Sony has decided to throw a wedge in the mix. The tapered design of the company's 2014 Bravia X9 4K line serves a distinct purpose, and not one that has to do with visuals. Instead Sony has used the extra real estate that f...
Abstract: We've finally reached the next generation: Welcome to the wonderful world of ultra high definition. Sony has been selling the UHD X900A series since last year—originally, an 84-inch, $24,999 display . We're not going to talk about that behemoth today. Ins...

The Sony X900H 55 Inch TV: 4K Ultra HD Smart LED TV is a hefty investment, but it will give you the kind of clarity that lets you admire just how far smart TV's have come. You can already expect full support from today's console, and there will be updates...
Mediocre HDR, Too few dimming zones, Blooming & peak brightness, Viewing angles
Is Sony X900H (XH90 in Europe) the 'PlayStation 5 TV'? Well, it is hard to say for sure until PlayStation 5 arrives and even more crucially until Sony releases the firmware required to enable HDMI 2.1 and related features – no timeline has been announced...
Very deep blacks, Great image quality, Stunning cinematic motion and HDR
Expensive vs. similar competitors, Poor viewing angles, Mediocre sound
One of Sony's best 4K TVs.Sony's X900F is a particularly strong series from the reputable manufacturer-boasting high performance in most image quality factors that place them among the best 4K TVs-and while they on the more expensive end of the spectrum...
