Your video was a big help! I'm a major movie freak, so was especially pleased that you commented on that aspect. Thanks!
Definitely enjoyed the video. I'm mainly a gamer and have been looking for a tv since the summer.
Useful comparison. Thank you for the video 👍
Thanks, more to come
Great comparison separating the too I also like the Sony using google tv it’s like a big fire stick I can download different third party apps to the tv
I appreciate it
Love the inputs on the Sony X80K.
Me too
Thank you for your honest opinion and comparison! I was heavily considering purchasing the Samsung CU8000. However, yesterday, I just purchased a 50 inch Samsung Q60B based off of your previous review. I respect your, and a VERY few other individual’s opinions, and take the common denominators and apply those to my viewing taste. We must remember, EVERYONE’s viewing experiences are a little different. Again thanks😊!
You’re welcome Robert
I sold my U6G for the Sony. Now I am a much happier person. I watch a lot of movies and I also play videogames but with the Hisense I stopped watching movies.
Thank you for your review.
Dos you know if Sharp is coming to México again? I need an Xled.
2:44 , hey Steve is that what real time HDR technology works like in sony
Very useful ❤❤❤❤
Thank you. Great comparison.
Thanks Max, glad you like it.
Thanks Max, glad you like it.
Samsung it is. Don’t get me wrong I love my Marvel movies but I’m more of a gamer than a movie watcher with every next gen system I don’t know if I’m ever going to buy an expensive tv with a 2.1 hdmi connection plus actually seeing the cu8000 demo mode helped with my preference for getting a budget tv.
One thing to keep in mind here is the sub-pixel layout. The Sony uses an RGB sub-pixel layout which is the same that is used on computer monitors. This means that any small text or fine lines that are displayed on the screen from a connected computer (word processing, spreadsheets, desktop publishing, etc.) are going to be crisp and clear. The Samsung uses a BGR sub-pixel layout which means that any small text or fine lines that are displayed on the screen are likely to appear slightly blurry and may seem out of focus to the eye. Over time, this can lead to eye strain and eye fatigue. If you know you are going to be hooking up a computer to the TV at some point to use it as a monitor, the X80K is a far better choice. Even the less expensive, step-down version of the TV, the Sony X75K (only currently available in 55" and 65" sizes) also uses an RGB sub-pixel layout as well.
Great information Mike
Mike, great info. It looks like the x85k switched back to BGR, even though it's ostensibly an upgrade to the x80k? But fits the bill with brightness? What do you recommend in the 43-50 inch category for ~$600 for a bright room PC monitor, the LG A2s, C2s are a touch dim? Wait for the new Hisense?
@@gregn2909 well, every TV is going to look different so you'll have to evaluate each one on its own merits, of course, but for an affordable 43" to 55" either the Sony X75K or X80 fit the bill just about perfectly. Now, Sony does have a new X77L coming out here soon for 2023 that will go all the way up to 85". I don't know if that has an RGB sub-pixel layout yet or not, we will have to wait and see. Do keep in mind here that some manufacturers will use different types of panels at different sizes of screens within the same model. You just have to be careful there and do your homework on that before making a purchase to be absolutley sure of what it is that you're getting.
I noticed when I use the Samsung as a computer monitor, if I go into the settings on Linux anyways and turn off anti-aliasing the text appears clear and crisp.
@@jordan2869 on the Windows side of things, I think there is an application called ClearType that will allow you to make certain adjustments so that if you are using a BRG-based TV as a computer monitor it has some settings that can allow you to make adjustments that will help to make the edges of text appear more crisp and defined. Now, that may not solve all of your problems (and it's probably better to just stick to known RGB TVs like Sony's X75K and likely its new 2023 replacement X77L) but this is something that could certainly help if you must work on a BGR-based TV as your display.
Sony problems is the power supply, a power surge and the tv is done, if you have it repaired it will cost you half of what the tv is worth.. i love Sony but I’m moving on.. 3 Sony tv got fried, I own and old Flat Toshiba that’s 9 years old, my Sony’s only lasted 3 years, i just purchased a Samsung 75 CU 8000 I have no issues with it, hopefully it will last
Gosh i feel you.... i was a loyal sony user... but same exact issues... power supply... power surge... fried motherboard... my 65inch died after 6 yrs.
which would you recommend to function as pc monitor and media player (4k dolby atmos videos). thx
I was planning on the Samsung but I think now I gotta go with the Sony if I can get the 65" for $649.. great video
It’s ips so make sure you see it 1st but I think it will be amazing
I got the 65" x80k one montn ago. It has ips panel, the tv looks great for movies, a lot of details, excelent highlights, amazing colors , the motion is grear. The only thing i dont like is black uniformity, it has clouding , but if you go to settings tou can imrpove it.
@@andresLopez-ks1or i have sony x80j (previous than x80k) and it performs nearly as same as x80k i guess
You won't be dissapointed by x80k , colours do pop but you won't find unnatural picture quality and that's where magic plays in sony tv life like picture
@@andresLopez-ks1orabout clouding, it should not be issue as its not in huge amount
@@andresLopez-ks1or that tv has the smarters iptv application?
nice job
Sir, can you sugest which is better sony x80k vs vu masterpiece qled
When will you make a video on the new Sony X77L?
I hope you release the review for it asap!
It’s not even out and I have other videos planned electronics.sony.com/tv-video/televisions/all-tvs/p/kd43x77l
Lg qned75 or Samsung cu8000? What would be the better option? Thanks 🙏
Wat demos do u use to test out dolby atmos
Hi sir, appreciate this comparision vedio 😊.
Can you comment on Samsung q60c vs Sony x80k , which would be better for movie watching?
Thanks
Not sure when and if i can. I have some other videos to do
Hi Steve, for this demo, which picture mode did you use for Sony: vivid, standard, or cinema? Thanks
I don’t remember but normally cinema
I always buy Sony tv because I love technology natural color and best audio that’s the reason I buy Sony because they last more years to buy Sony products if you buy Samsung is to bright don’t give wrong is great tv but brighter there are burn more pixels gets worse for how long you watch but always both great quality television but I always love natural colors on the tv is better hands down. 😊 📺
Hello. Sony 82L vs Samsung CU8000. For only movies & OTT what will you suggest.
Interesting comparison. We have a 2011 Sony Bravia KDL which we view films and I use with PC for light gaming. Want to upgrade to 4k but here Sony seems better equipped but Samsung better picture! Plus our tv viewed from various angles, say 45deg of centreline so would IPS be better choice at this price range? Thanks for reviewing Steve 👍
Yes IPS would be better, you my get some blooming but it’s a better choice for your situation
our samsung Q6 stopped working after only 28 months of evening watching. Tech tested the tv and said the screen was bad. The first samsung crystal tv we had ,also broke down in less then 36 months.I repaired that one by replacing the main board. I recommend extended warranty on samsungs.
Same problem here. I had Samsun Q60R and it broke after 3 years, technician said the screen was bad. I just ordered sony TV. Samsung sucks.
The guys that came to pick up the bad samsung, had the entire truck full of defective tvs. @@mastersilence3446
Gaming and frequent movie watcher here, I’m assuming it’s possible to simply increase the brightness when viewing movies in HDR so it won’t appear as dark? Although I’m not too sure how it all works, I’m looking at getting the CU8000 but the dark picture for the movies made me question things a tiny bit.
It’s in movie mode, you can make it brighter but risk washing out the picture
Hello Steve, can you do - Sony x90k 75" vs Tcl 835 75"✌️
I wish i has a warehouse of TVs this is a small channel
We need a cu 7000 vs cu 8000 what's the difference between both besides the price best heree in cali cu 7000 $329 and cu 8000 $400 they both are 43" 🤔 by the way great videos very helpful Steve keep up the great work 🙌🏼
I’ll work on that when i get back in a few weeks
X80k or tcl mini led c755 which is better? Please advise for ps5 gaming and movie watching.
Thanks Steve. I am from India. I love samsung and s 22 ultra , samsung bud pro2. I was going fir sony x80 k but i see it is very difficult to connect my samsung bud pro 2. So please suggest which
Why is the x80k so much more expensive now?
BIDEN.
@@madmechanic7976Stop doing drugs.
Please take your meds.
I have the cu8000 and although it has a lot of white in the top black bar when in wide-screen, overall it is a very good TV 🙃
What is better in your opinion Samsung 85 cu 8000 or sony kd85x85k and why? Thanks
Thanks for the informative video Steve.
Is Samsung CU8000 have heating issues because of its reduced thickness? I have heard the display of Samsung gets heat up so early and it cause multiple display issues.
I've had the AU8000 (previous model) for less than 2 years and I can definitely tell you it does have heating issues...the LEDS already burnt out
No bro I have also cu8000 but not got any problem
I am interested in a comparison between the CU8000 and Q60C. Which one is better?
Let me know if you figured which one is better?
Q60c I've owned both the q60c is a lot better on colours
@@itswhatever9686 really by alot? Also have you noticed any improvement in definition or upscale processing?
@@DivithChhajed yes but just a little
if the q60c is the same price just get it
its much brighter also
My mom and dad only watch TV channels. I only watch footbal or netflix. I don't play PS5 or Xbox. We want to buy samsung 43cu8500 tv....Do you recommend this TV for daily use?
Steve can you compare the x77L to the Cu8000 and Q60C?
Maybe when I get caught up
Hi Steve, I notice on the legs on the Samsung are flat on the surface. I have a cable box that sits in front of the tv. Are the legs adjustable to make the tv higher? Thanks
You probably need to watch the unboxing videos I don’t really remember
@@TechSteve while I got you, LG UR 9000 or Samsung 690 about $130 difference. Picture wise is there a big difference? Thanks
what about using a laptop pc to the tv which is better
i just want a tv that doesnt pixelate/artifact in dark areas when upscaling to 4k. the samsung is awful in shadow dark areas evn if the source is 1080!
No games for me..just a great picture and HDR. Sony for me on this one. Thanks Steve!
You’re welcome, I agree
@@TechSteve do comparison between these Sony models x80k, x85k, x90k and a80j in one video to know picture quality. Request to u brother
I don’t have all these TVs anymore
Somehow in my opinion always japanese stuff Sony Panasonic better built. Samsung looks good
Your right about quality. I’m looking to upgrade my 14 year old 50”flat screen Panasonic which still has a great picture. Heavy as a tank compared to new tv’s but it’s still going
@@deerrudy 14 year's old that's great most Samsung & LG never get to see 14 year's
I gave up on buying a qn85b TV. The wife wasn't even amusing the idea.
So I was thinking about the cu8000. So I'm going you give me a good idea for it. The price is fine, and it should have xbox game pass. And that's a feature I want. Thanks for the video.
Thanks for watching, I would add your own 4k streaming device if the os frustrates you. I use 4k apple TV on every TV i use personally
2:07 , i am just talking about colours here , look at wall colour in sony (seems more accurate) , sky looks more closer to atcual sky in sony
Look at flowers colour in bottom right, sometimes a TV can't win by more brighteness and enhancing the shadows
A casual tv watcher will prefer sony ,with its excellent colour science
Have a 50" Sony X80K and 65" Hisense U6H. My next TV will be a Sony. As Samsung goes I've had two of their TVs in the past only last around three years, so I stopped supporting that brand all together.
Steve, I bought the Sony 55X80J and I'm unhappy with the brightness isuue. If a show or movie has a scene and it is somewhat dark then it becomes too dark to see. So what TV would you recommend I get to replace it. No gamming just regular tv, movies, youtube, etc. This seems like a easy question but have been trouble getting an answer.
X90L
eArc isn't just for soundbars, full blown home theatre speakers and AVRs can and are used through eArc
Yes i know, lol. I worked at an A/V store for 10 years
I just got done comparing the 55" X80K vs a 65" TCL Q7 QLED with local dimming and mini-LED screen....the X80K is still a winner for most TV applications with picture quality unmatched by a sub-$1000 QLED TV with twice the Hz.
Not to mention the CPU is 500MHz faster, benchmarks aren't even close, Sony for the win.
Q7 does not have mini LED that's the Q8;
Yes it does....
@@g00dl00kinb0i no it doesn't the QM8 has it. I would know since I have th q7 in my room. Look it up and see how wrong you are
i have a question, what panel sony x75k ? VA or IPS panel? please help answer thankyou
www.displayspecifications.com/en
You always mention eARC is for soundbars. Can't you connect it to a 5.1 home theatre?
Yes with optical
@@TechSteve can't i connect the 5.1 home theater using Hdmi eArc?
Yes you can with a comparable audio system
a day before yesterday I went to buy a Samsung Tv but I didn't like the sound system in it. Today I visited Sony but sony is expensive at least 375 00 BDT equivalent to 300 us dollars. What to do now. I like to watch movies and sports.
Try finding X75K models
Steve is the Sony X75k better than the Cu7000?
Yes it is. CU7000 is a joke.
on sony can't the saturation simply be adjusted to match the samsung?
But why, they set it up to work properly
Sony i had a Samsung it died After 4 years only... Besides Sony has Always been better in Movies
Wow!😮 Same with my Sony Bravia. But I get the upgrade replacement with my extended warranty and the tv build is very well-crafted from what I understand and it was a great tv otherwise.
X80k vs the frame tv vs q60c which one is best ??
Drop the frame if you like to watch movies and play games. X80K should be cheaper than Q60C and yet you will have Dolby vision and Atmos support. In case you buy Samsung, get a soundbar too.
really hard to take decision ||
There's no competition between these two. X80K is superior in every aspect. Real comparison should be with Q60B, but still Sony wins.
Can't go for Sony, it's Google TV and I don't want to login with Google account
X80k showing us natural picture with proper colour enhancements
While samsung is more vivid and inaccurate as compared to sony
Now I don't know which of the 2 to buy, someone who has the sony wanted to know if they have an iptv smarters application?
The sad painful truth is nowadays they are making TVs like how they make them out of the movie theaters they are filming them and filmmaker mode so any movie you see that's in HDR 4K won't be as bright how it used to be because how they are making the movies now in the theaters
Hey is it possible if you could do a Sony x85k vs Samsung Cu8000 ; I just got a cu 8000 and was unhappy to find out it doesn’t support vvr; could you recommend any tvs within the same price range 400-600 or a little more that has a 120hz screen
I don’t have the sony anymore
@@TechSteve from your memory do you think it holds up to the cu 8000 while having 120hz?
Man I don’t guess, that’s how you put out bad information. I have some sony vs samsung comparison so you can see the color differences
@@TechSteve my bad how about what would you recommend as a good 4k 120hz choice from any TVs; maybe a decent 5 or 3 so I can look into them a bit more on my own time
I like models like the Hisense U8H, Sony A85K, LG QNED90 high end models. Spend more money and it’s an amazing difference
SONY ❤️ 🇯🇵 👑
Samsung have service centers literally everywhere. This should be a factor for after sales.
Hi bro sony x75k panel ips is good ???
I don't know that model
I have the sony x80k and i was wondering if i get a 4k blu ray player would this sony tv upscale movies or is it all in the 4k blu ray player settings.
Upscaling is subjective you just have to buy it and try it
I bought 14 different tv´s
And i´m gonne buy this sony x80k because its supposed to be flicker free.
For the moment i have the philips the one 8837/12. That tv is very good.. 2.0 hdmi is as good as the 2.1 hdmi on it.
But yeah pwm tech is no good on all these tv´s.
I also have the sony a90k still for sale.. also a very good tv... but i would say that the philips does a better overal job in sharpness. Yes... the philips 😮.
But yeah.. i need a pwm free tv and the sony x80k does that according to rtings.
I also had the sonyx85j... but that tv was bad. Overall sharpness was just shit on it... and i heard that the sony x85k is the same. Sharpness is just shit. Lets hope that the x80k is sharp. Ooooh and 120hz is overrated.
Update: the x80k gave me so much headache. Brought it back to the store. Also the contrast was really bad. Like colors were faded.
So now i´m thinking its not the pwm or bfi giving me headache.. but actually the led..
You going to have to spend them BIG BUCK to get one you like
@@steinvynck774 Hey friend, I was just wondering what TV you ended up keeping bc I just got the CU8000. I have the 65 inch and I don't see how a TV could be anymore clear. I walked all the way up to where I was right at the screen to see if I could see details like wrinkles on a face. 😂 But seriously it's so clear and I'm also a Samsung fanatic. TVs, Phones, Tablets, Computers, etc.
Sony x80k in Europe cost identical as Samsung q85b, starting from €700. Sony is twice the price, always 😢
I got the CU8000. I kid you not it has about 2 gig storage and half of that is being used by crap I will never use.
I don't game so Sony seems the easy choice.
I wonder if you put the CU8000 in Gamer Mode and Sony in Cinema mode, if that would make a difference in brightness and colors when comparing the two while watching movies. 🤔. Samsung seemed much dimmer while watching that movie clip
Sony is Better
Thanks for your opinion
Sony wins. A TV is used for 75% movie watching. And 25% gaming.
Sony is better. I do not care for the overly saturated image that Samsung usually goes for. Nor do I care for soap opera effect. My parents have a 75 inch Samsung and I have a 55 inch Vizio M series but looking to upgrade soon. My parents Samsung handles motion poorly. It’s buttery smooth on panning shots but as soon as the action picks up it drops frames and turns into a smeared mess. TERRIBLE! Luckily my Vizio don’t have this option and motion looks natural. The Samsung stutters like crazy when ever anything moves on screen with the motion handling turned off. I cannot stand Samsung for this. Sony would be my first choice.
There is no damn way that x80k is inferior to cu8000. The video is just not right
You don’t have to believe anything, buy what works for you. I purchased both TVs so for me it is what it is
Interesting that they've done the 85" CU8000 in 120Hz. I wonder if that was because the 85" X80K is 120Hz.
Thanks for the comparison
One never knows, why they do what they do
Sony should come up with a TV with built in ps5
Or at least the cloud app
@@TechSteveHey Mr. Steve, I'm kinda replying here bc I'm not sure how it notifies you but I went with the CU8000 and I was wondering if you could do a complete review on that TV. Maybe in a video you can compare it with another but I would like to know EVERYTHING there is to know and everything it's capable of. If not, I understand and I do greatly about videos. I've bought 2 TV's now but not before watching your videos. AU8000 was the first one and now I've had the CU8000 a few days. Thanks again, PEACE ✌️!!
Swarovski animals? 😀
Samsung tv's are now GARBAGE I had 2bof them didn't last 4 yrs QLED
Can i screencast my android with Samsung tv? Anyone have tried it please?
Yes you can.
