Sony X95L Mini LED Review - The Best LED of 2023?

preview_player
Показать описание
The Sony X95L is Sony's flagship 4k TV in 2023. It replaces the Sony X95K from 2022 and sits above the Sony X93L in the U.S. Strangely, it's only available in an 85" size in North America, but there are 65" and 75" models in other regions. It offers impressive features, including hands-free voice control, the S-Center speaker input, and an ATSC 3.0 tuner for up to 4k broadcast support. It's powered by Sony's Cognitive Processor XR, which is designed to improve overall image processing and upscaling. It has HDMI 2.1 bandwidth and variable refresh rate (VRR) support for gamers, so you can take full advantage of the latest consoles. Like past Sony TVs, it's powered by the Google TV smart platform, which is user-friendly and has a ton of apps available to download.

Almost OLED quality without worrying about burn in. I am definitely getting this one.

We caught a small mistake at 7:50. We say that you shouldn't get this TV if you have a Radeon GPU due to the TV's lack of Freesync, but you should note that recent AMD Radeon cards, namely the Radeon RX 6000 and RX 7000 series, do support HDMI Forum VRR, so this statement only applies to Radeon RX 5000 series cards and earlier! Sorry about that small mistake, thank you for watching! 😊

I have the 75". It's a bomb.

The fact that your employees actually use this television for games made me finally decide that this is what I will buy in the end

I’ve had this TV for about 3 weeks, it was pricey yes but the picture quality is amazing. The brightness is so good that depending on the scene it made my eye squint cause of how bright it is.

But in order to take advantage of the streaming or Bravia core streaming, I highly recommend buying a usb 3.0 to Ethernet adapter. As the built in wifi is slow and built in Ethernet port.

Enjoyed the review, thank you. I'm looking forward to see how this TV compares against the Hisense UX being that its supposedly a step up from the U8k and the x95l and the u8k were very close in scoring.

Hoping we see some of that X95L quality into the 2024 X93L models. I would assume that is how it works. Sounds like the 2024 models may be THE mini-leds to get in 2024.

I wish these would start using 4 HDMI 2.1 ports.

I believe the X93L does not have the new XR Clear feature as the X90L or X95L as it is pretty much an X95K from last year.

Would love to see review on X93L and X90L 😊

The problem with this TV in Australia is that hardly any retailers seem to stock it and they are still really expensive even though they’re last year’s model, probably because of minimal competition between retailers and the fact that there’s no equivalent Bravia 9 option in most sizes.
So I can get last year’s LG G3 for way way cheaper than an X95L of the same size (65” for me).

I think you're a bit of a star Abby, I have also been thoroughly enjoying your longevity series on the R&D channel. Thanks for the review, here in Europe we do get the 65 inch version of this TV and I'm currently considering it.

You should be a sales(wo)man ;)
I ordered this 85inch monster now. Here in Germany, you can get it currently for 3099 euro after cashback 🤩.
