Yes , the 65 inch one for $2499 ,the extended warranty will be $310. I have BD credit card so will have 3% discount , it will probably be cheaper than Courts.

Has the VRR and HDMI 2.1 issue been fixed yet ?

Does anyone knows if the LG slim wall bracket can be fixed on Sony TV?

Just curious, anyone here actually encountered the info bar pop up issue, before turning it off using the latest FW? Wow I thought it was a problem with my tv, or avr misfiring signals. Thankfully it was just a bug.

Anyone managed to get meWatch to run on Sony TV with good resolution? If so, what is the app version?

I have one running quite stable but the resolution is poor because it is in smartphone resolution.

i dont really watch meWatch but am just curios. I look see at meWatch from DVB-T2. Loading is slow. looking at Jamie: Keep Cooking and Carry On Season 1 Ep1. Looks OK to me. No stats, so I cant tell at what resolution it is playing at. maybe at 720P just guessing only.

Not sure if I’m all that excited about the new lineups.
The additional processing seems gimmicky... not sure why we need the so called cognitive processing, my preference (maybe I watch too much Vincent) is just to replicate as accurately as possible the “director’s intent’.
So I’m mostly interested in uniformity, contrast, viewing angles, brightness, color gamut and motion handling. The marketing doesn’t seem to offer anything specifically new in those areas. I don’t even know if the light engine offered exceeds the performance of the older backlight master drive.

You won’t see a major difference in TV every year. Most of the time, the improved features are just brighter and faster panels, better contrast and so forth.

Unless Micro-LED is here, else every year will just be a minute upgrade. You buy a 2018 TV now, you only lose out in HDMI 2.1 and that’s pretty much it.

Yeah it's normal, even the reviews point that out. (under Gray Uniformity)

The sony technician drop by yesterday and I ask him why will be like that but he also can't give a answer, just ask me to go back to dealer. Went back to BD and the sales told me sony warehouse no more stock so cannot do exchange. Recommend me to change to other brand

Technically it should be possible to progress on led front using more zones with mini leds.
