- Today's video is a walk through of COSTCO Wholesale Club, which is an excellent place to buy your next TV. Not only is there an excellent selection from your favorite manufacturers, but their one of the few places that you can still walk into a physical store and buy at all sizes. Their return policy is also second to none. Thank you so much for watching!
You can also purchase any of the TV'S and AV equipment from our good friends at Value Electronics valueelectroni... or you can call them directly at 914 723 3344 and ask for Robert or Wendy and please mention Brian at BRIAN'S TECH THERAPY.

Hi Brian, love your work. Couple of corrections needed for this video.
The S90CD with the blue graphic, rather than pink, is the 2023! Costco version of the S90C NOT the 2024 S90D. Costco added the D at the end to show it's their 2023 S90C model with a couple of extra features. Hence the $1,599 price rather than the higher current price of a S90D. Costco's version upgrades the audio from 40 watts to 60 watts. This is typically shown on the front lower left of the box front with the heading "Member Benefit". Several months ago S90C TVs at Costco started appearing with the blue picture rather than the pink. Thought it might have been a change over to 2nd Generation QD-OLED but never got an answer to that. Bot both the 65" & 77" S90CD Costco online as i have 40 stairs to this property. Always try to buy TVs from Costco due to shipping all the way to the warehouse floor is all palletized as you mentioned. Costco's Direct Service is handled by their Logistics division, so it's room of choice with $30 option for set up. Prefer getting TVs with ATSC 3.0 tuners, which like LG, the 2024 Samsungs do not have. $100 off for 2 on same order, $1,450 65", $1,900 77", 5yr warranty included, plus $150 Costco Shop Card received for each. Bot 8 of the LG C2 55" on Costco warehouse(s) liquidation for $599 each with 5yr warranty last August . Love TV's from Costco! Wish they had LG G & Sony A95L series in warehouse but understand why they dont. All the best, Brian
Excellent information! I pinned your comment at the top! Thank you so very much!
Did exactly what you said. Went to Abt Electronics, bought the LG C4 65", put it in the Explorer, and drove home. Giving my C1 to my sister. Still have my 83" A90J. That's my baby!
@blackfrancis9383 awesome Francis! It's always great to see you, my friend!
Hi Brian, I was at Costco’s and surprised of all the TVs that they are carrying in the store let alone with online. A true competitor out there.
Bought a 75" Sony from Costco last fall. Benefits included 5 year warranty, free delivery for tv's 55"+, Costco "Concierge" help line, Extra Sony movie credits and an upgraded remote with motion activated illumination. (Only included on this model from Costco)
Got the 2024 model at 65inch few days ago for 1k only. and my goodness it’s absolutely gorgeous and insanely bright and colorful black is black!!!! I also love the screen its like glossy its just beautiful. Sounds are really good too for a tv
I cant believe the prices you guys have in the US. Here in canada TVs are way overpriced. LG C4 42 costs 1850$! And i see the 85 inch Sony X95L 1999$. Wow. Great video Brian.
@TheHDRSuperchannel unfortunately the prices in Canada and other countries is terrible
For real Canadian tv prices have to come down close to US prices
Hey BRI. I will take a peek at the Costco store lookaround😊
Costco has the 5 year warranty on most TVs. Of course 1st year is manufacturer and 2 year is Costco concierge with All state taking up 3-5. You have the 90 day return policy and as long as you aren’t taking them back on the regular they’ll take them back no questions asked. Not to mention on most SONY TVs they have 2 years of Sony pictures core instead of 1 along with 15 movie credits instead of 5 with Backlit remotes. So if you’re buying a Sony TV it’s a no brainer to get it from Costco.
@@bamajohn100 perfectly said! Thank you so much for watching
I want to buy an 85” ish TV from Costco, I’m probably going to wait for Black Friday, or maybe in January/2025 when they have the Super Bowl deals. I only want to spend a max of $2,000, what Samsung, LG or Sony would you recommend?
Lotta TVS at Costco, wow😊
Biggest thing with buying at costco, at least for higher end OLED's that will get decent use, is that their 5 year warranty does not cover burn in. It really stinks, but i paid a bit extra for the peace of mind with best buy.
We bought our replacement LG top load 7900 high end washer from them, I bought my last set of new tires for my ex 95 Neon from them, and we buy the stock up groceries we can't get a deal on from the closest Freddie's.
I applied for the credit card and they gave me a discount and two extra years of warranty on the washer, and they delivered it, set it up, and took the old one.
Great video Brian. FYI, I just saw this past week that Sony is promoting last year's 98 inch X90L Full Array LED for $4,998. Basically a 98 inch immersive Sony tv for 5 grand. Not bad.
@drugemp1 it's an amazing price, my friend! Great comment!
Thanks very good. Still trying to decide what I want. Thanks.
The only thing that stinks about buying one in costco, no shipping. You have to take it home yourself. Keep that in mind people. I had to bring home a 77C2 in my crv last year! Lol. It’s nice to see you’re a local guy Brian.
Now I know I can easily fit a new 75 or 77" in my pickup truck if you can stuff one in a CRV.
@@RKDriver well, i had my trunk opened and hoped i didn’t get pulled over lol
Hisense QD6 has zero Reviews other than a couple of Costco walk throughs. Curious Picture quality for the price. They are calling it Quantum Dot which is normally on higher Models.

I don't know how anyone competes with Costco. I just grabbed a 65A80CL for $1499 delivered with a 5yr warranty. Plus I get 2% back. I checked Crutchfield and Bestbuy and they weren't close. I didn't call VE. I'm a VE customer having bought a Technics turntable from them when they first re-entered the market. No way I could pay 600 more for a Bravia 8. I'd come closer to buying the C4 but at this price I couldn't pass up last year's Sony.
I went with best buy for my OLED a few months back, because the Costco warranty does not cover burn in 😢
Good evening this might be a hard question
On the Sony X90L is there a difference between 65,75 panel compared to the 85 inch model
@TheSluggo080976 not hard at all. All sizes are very good. Most mini leds improve with Size , in regards to brightness and Zone count. The X90L has those subtle improvements when going up. But it's barely noticeable. What I'd noticeable is the immersion you gain.
Once Best Buy close, my go to buy TV will be Costco or Microcenter.
Great Video Brian, I was at Costco today looking at the Samsung cd 65”. I did notice for the 2023 model the speaker system was rated at 60 watts vs the 40 watts on the 2024 model.
@johnhalmos9014 that's interesting! Unfortunately, I don't know the specs, but I do know they behave vert similarly
wish i could use costco its an hour and half drive to the nearest one. Great store
Great video Brian. What did you mean when you said you shouldn’t return TV’s? I’ve returned 3 in the last 2 months because I have no way of testing SDR content and Motion in stores. They won’t even give you the remote in store in most cases so IMO this is how we have to do it. I’m not keeping a $3000 tv if It’s not a significant upgrade and again no way to really test drive em till you buy em🤷🏼♂️
@davidiveson4035 The challenge is that when a TV is opened, it can't be sold as new. I completely understand the want and need to try a display and return. However, this has both hurt the manufacturer and retailers. If you do it often enough, they will ban you, and you may get stuck with a TV you're curious about. While I understand the lack of sympathy for these massive companies try to also keep in mind that other appliances cannot be tried and returned. Great comment and thank you so much for watching
I could see them banning you from any future tv purchases but not sure how they could refuse a return if it’s within the 2 week window at BB for example.
I have a serious question I like playing video games probably a little to much I’m thinking about buying the 65 inch LG C3 oled tv for heavy gaming and some movie/show watching however I heard that if you play games for 6 or so hours straight you can get permanent burn-in which in my case I do a lot should I just buy it anyway or just get the Hisense 65inch U8N mini led to not have to worry about the risk because I play hours daily just about
Thank you Brian. Although I have been without a TV since February this year and to be honest my replacement will not take place before December 2024.
It's been tough with waiting.
My short list though is 2 models: Bravia 9 or the Sony 83 OLED. Sound system upgrade shall be the Skny Quad with the larger USB. I need to Audition before purchasing.
Brian I really appreciate your videos.
Kindest Regards from Mark UK
@markchristopher8515 sorry to hear of this very long delay my friend. The only way I choose the Bravia 9 over an oled is if it's the 85" Bravia 9 vs and 83.
@@BRIANSTECHTHERAPY EXACTLY!
@@BRIANSTECHTHERAPY Obviously the differences ie; increased Black detail when compared to the Mini LED however the highly improved control of all levels of contrast and Brightness provided by the Bravia 9.
So at the moment I am 60% leaning towards the 85 Bravia 9 and 40% for the Sony OLED.
Brian My Friend yes it's Very Tough waiting for this but I am also trying to get my online business off the ground.
I shall get there and that's a Fact!
Thank you again Brian.
Kindest Regards from Mark.
Hey Brian, what's your current viewing distance angle? I just went from 55inch to a 65inch s90d and wow it feels massive, but I can't say im used to it yet. The smallest viewing angel I can get is 44 degrees, and i can easily move it closer to get 50+ degrees.
I bought my Sony 85-inch X90L from Costco. Its model number is the XR85X90CL. when compared to the regular X90L, I don't know if there are any other differences, such as the picture quality, internal speakers, etc., but it adds an extra year to the manufacturer warranty, three years of Allstate protection, and the same backlit, aluminum/aluminium/chrome/steel-faced remote included with the 2023 flagship A95L. Aren't a premium warranty and a premium remote nice for the price?
@@chriskelly1740 excellent information! Thank you so very much!
@@BRIANSTECHTHERAPY I'm not sure how many people are aware of the remote included with the Costco release. But every time I hold it in my hand, I feel like I own a lot more than what I paid for. I know you have the regular A80L. Does that come with the plastic remote or the same A95L remote? If it comes with the plastic remote, I wonder if the Costco release (A80CL) includes the A95L remote like the X90CL. Anything over $2,000 would have taken me so long to save for that the 4K UHD Blu-rays I plan on adding to my collection might go out of print by the time I get the TV, which would defeat the purpose of upgrading to a 4K UHD TV. My choices were either a smaller flagship LCD or OLED or a larger mid-tier LCD. According to Caleb Denison from Digital Trends and the Rtings reviews, the X90L excels in so many areas at once including pre-calibration color accuracy, PQ EOTF tracking, HDR gradient handling, HDR color volume, and sustained full-screen brightness. After checking out Hisense's and TCL's 2024 lineups, and even Sony's more expensive 2024 lineup, the X90L still fits that sweetspot for performance, size, brightness, and price. If you compare it to what's out there this year, I think the X90L is still very relevant in 2024. Unless you need the 98-inch model, get the Costco release if you can. I think the display is the leader in any home theater system. A quality display will dictate the quality of the home theater system it is leading.
You can buy whatever recent remote you want for the Sony TVs pretty cheap. The Chinese knockoff Sony remotes can be found for about 15 bucks and I recently got a OEM Sony 621u with the brushed stainless top, backlight, and number buttons for 24 shipped from Amazon. I didn't like the small lighted remote without numbers my Z9K came with.
Thanks Brian
@@craigosterberg5045 my pleasure Craig! Thank you so much
i like your job ❤
@@mustafaflog thank you! I appreciate you watching!
Great Review!!! Thank you
Thank you so much Carlos!
That same Sony XR-85X90CL is $2199.99 yesterday at my Costco (Arizona), just 4 days after your video. 😢
It’s 1899 now.
The Costco model (X90CL) of Sony’s X90L has a backlit remote that the X90L does not have.
A80cl 77” display for 1600. They have extra 200 off tvs 1499 and up so 1400
LG o rei das TVS DISPLAYS etc do mundo LG tem durabilidade qualidade confiabilidade é importante etc LG capricha em tudo 👑🏆
I just got the TCL Q6 from Costco. Should I have gotten the Q7?
Could you do a VS between the Samsung S90D & the Bravia 7? Those tvs cost about the same. 👊😆
I think brian's been watching too much zoolander🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 With that face ❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

LG C4 77" is $2600 at BJs
Is Samsung still having the black screen of death problem?
Thank you Bro.
@MM-Official my pleasure Majid! Thank you as always my friend
@@BRIANSTECHTHERAPY Much love bud, you the best in this business period, keep going my friend.
@MM-Official Thank you so much, Majid! I'm trying!
Hey wat do you think about lg 816 re vs tcl 745 ore sony x 85 l
Last I checked x93 has XR processor, and would still consider it to be a better overall TV than the Bravia 7.
@fwiler it has XR not the XR Cognitive which is a different processor
@@BRIANSTECHTHERAPY Which is strange, I"m on Sony's website now it clearly states "The Cognitive Processor XR™ delivers a picture with wide dynamic contrast and natural colors, replicating how we see the real world" It's the first line under About this Item.
Sony tv super
Hey Brian. I have a Sony 77' A80J and a Samsung 85' QN90A. I want something bigger ( 98 or 100). An OLED of that size is too expensive. I don't game. It's just streaming, 4k UHD bluray movies, and some OTA football games. The Sony 98' X90L cost $4,999 and Hisense 100' U8K is $3,000. The G4 is only 83' but it's over $6,000. How is the hisense u8k processing vs X90L? Is it worthy the $2,000 difference? Or the $3,000 compare with the 83' G4. Thanks for sharing your experience and greetings from Houston, Texas.
Get the 98 inch TCL QM8 (2024 model) instead. The upscaling and such will be at least decent, but in almost every other way it’s superior to the U8K. If you can, try streaming on an Apple TV 4K or Nvidia Shield. The upscaling for everything else should be good enough.
Costco doesn’t have the Bravia 7 in the 85” size.
Hey Brian, what are your thoughts on the TCL QM851G 98 inch vs the LG QNED 98 inch? I had my eye on the Sony X90L 98 inch, but I didn't like that I can't change the aspect ratio.
@jonathanbell9349 I'd definitely go for the QM8 or the QNED as they have much better local dimming than the X90L. The QM8 also performs much better at the larger sizes. The QM8 also has more features.
@@BRIANSTECHTHERAPY Thanks Brian! You made the decision easy for me:)
Costco carrying 42in LG c4?
I’ve been looking and only seen 48in
Sony Quad and the larger Sub.
Brian would you go 75 Bravia 3 over 65 x90l?
The Bravia 3 is very hard to recommend when their is TCL QM7 and Hisense U7N around my friend.
@@BRIANSTECHTHERAPY my concern with those brands is there build quality and picture quality versus the Sony processing.
But you are right everything I read on those two TVs are incredible .
Hey Brian is it that all new tv are dual voltage?
I take it that Brian is officially an LG fan
Yep, that’s why he owns a Sony now. It’s to hide his loyalty for other brands.
@@techsamurai11🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
How do you figure?😂😂
Woah. That isn't meant as a negative, my friend
@ehenningsen I didn't take that way my friend hence the laughing faces😁
Hi Brian, did you see a 55 inch Bravia 7 at Costco? Not sure if they are carrying this size. I hope they are.
@@WillAnderson4I believe they had both 55" and 65" . The other sizes are available online.
@@BRIANSTECHTHERAPY Thanks, Brian!
Hi Brian. Does Costco actually deliver to Germany?
65 inch A80L at $1499 is an absolute STEAL of a deal....And 77 inch at $2499 is also a fantastic price!
Brown Helen Johnson Brenda Miller Jessica
how could be that in your video said sony a80cl 77 “ 1999 but online is 24999 ??????
No idea, my friend? Perhaps that particular store dropped the price? They aren't supposed to. Thank you for watching
thank you for answer Bryan I just think is very unprofessional for stores posted some prices and don’t be accurate …. thank you again
I didn't get to see any samsung qn90d and s90d.
The QN90D wasn't there, and the S90D is labeled as the S90CD, which is half way into the video . Thank you so much for watching

They have worst Sony tv ,In 6 months getting stuck I have to unplug the cable.
Sony.
How about an actual product review....sheesh!
@robertp.2586 the channel has a ton of reviews my friend
What are the chances of the G5 77 inch having a stand? I'd rather avoid wall mounting it. I want a 77 inch but I'm not sure about the C4 brightness coming from an 8 year old full array backlit mini led. I believe even the top oleds is still darker than it on full screen(I believe it has 1000 nits peak and 600 nits full screen). B9 is not oled and only 2 hdmi 2.1 ports and I don't want a Samsung. I guess I have to wait another year... Or compromise with B9 or C4 but Sony will probably get 4 hdmi 2.1 ports next year and make a better oled... But the top model will be priced to the moon anyway.
I believe you can buy one separately.
I'm pretty sure Mini-LED Full Array Backlight TVs didn't exist commercially 8 years ago. If I'm not mistaken, the first Mini-LED Full Array Backlit|| TV was the TCL 6-Series Mini-LED QLED from I think 2019 or 2020. I know because I bought my mom's a 65 incher on sale for just under a $1K & I remember thinking how the black levels were so good for a non-OLED. I mean they were only black & the colors were so vibrant. That's why I decided that my next TV would be a Mini-LED FALD QLED combination. The Samsung Neo QLED 85QN90A 2021 model. See I owned two 65" OLEDs, the LG C6 2016 & LG C10 2020 models & both of them suffered burn-in issues. So when I saw that LCD technology started to catch up with these new Mini-LED QLED TV's.
I decided to go with Samsung's Neo QLED 85QN90A. But 2 years later I moved & my Neo QLED was damaged. I'm disabled in a wheelchair & so I couldn't do it myself & had to pay my nieces boyfriend & his friend to move it for me & one of them squeezed just a little bit too hard & broke. And my Samsung Care+ doesn't want to cover it because it's external damage. IMO all TVs 75" or bigger should come with built-in handles for easy moving. The TV is 85 inches, weighs over 100 pounds & is 1.1 inches thick, it's almost impossible to move without damaging it. So now I'm watching RUclips videos trying to figure out my next buy. I have the list down to the same model but the 2023 85" QN90C, the 2024 TCL 85" QM8, the 2024 Hisense 85" U8N, or the Samsung 85" QN800C 8K model.
Or maybe go back & try my hand at OLED again with the Samsung 83" S90C QD-OLED. Maybe they finally fixed the burn-in issues. Anyways, what advice do you Brian & my fellow TV aficionados have? What I really want is the Sony 2024 85" Bravia 9, but it's currently $4800 & that's a lot pricier than I'm willing to go. I tried looking for an open box 85" Bravia 9 at Best Buy because with my Best Buy Total membership I get 2 years extended warranty with the option to extend it up to 7 years. but even those Bravia 9 open box TVs were still too damn pricey. Sorry for the long reply, but please any advice would be appreciated as I tend to procrastinate too much.😅
