Sony X900F series (XBR65X900F) review

Sony does it again with the outstanding X900F 4K HDR LED/LCD TV. With excellent contrast, remarkably accurate color, and punchy HDR processing, Sony proves it has the chops to make the best TVs in the world. The X900F just happens to be one of the more...

Excellent color accuracy ; Smart use of brightness in HDR ; Strong black levels ; Best-in-class processing ; Excellent cinematic motion

Sound isn’t great ; Android TV is sluggish

Sony’s X900F offers some of the finest picture quality you can get without shelling out thousands more. With top-notch picture processing, accurate color, and excellent HDR performance, this is a 4K LCD TV that we’d be proud to have in our own living...

Sony XBR-X900F review: Great picture, but too expensive now

The X900F delivers superb image quality, Android TV and modern, minimalist looks for a not-too-expensive price -- that'll only get lower later this year.

The Sony XBR-X900F evinces excellent image quality, with deep black levels, accurate color, solid video processing and very good high dynamic range performance. Its modern, minimalist styling is a cut above budget models. The Android TV operating...

More expensive than Vizio and TCL TVs with similar image quality. Smart TV and voice control features can occasionally be slow to respond.

It might not be the best value, but the Sony X900F offers an excellent picture, superb style and enough extras to tempt buyers who don't want a bargain brand.

Sony XBR-65X900F

Sony's X900F 4K TV series is among the brightest we've tested, with excellent color and tons of features thanks to Android TV, though some minor issues coupled with a hefty price tag keep it from rising to the top.

Very bright panel. Excellent color performance. Lots of features. Attractive design.

Mediocre black levels with light bloom. Interface can feel slow and jerky. Expensive.

Sony's X900F 4K TV series is bright, colorful, and stylish. It can put out well over 1,000cd/m2 when pushed, and it comes packed with features thanks to its Android TV interface. Its black levels are mediocre, however, and light bloom can hurt its...

Sony X900F Review (XBR49X900F, XBR55X900F, XBR65X900F, XBR75X900F, XBR85X900F)

The Sony X900F is a great 4k TV with impressive picture quality, especially in a dark room due to the high native contrast ratio and full array local dimming sup...

Excellent motion handling. Deep and uniform blacks. Bright HDR highlights.

Picture quality degrades at an angle.

The Sony X900F is a great TV for a range of usages. High contrast ratio and local dimming results in great dark scene performance for watching movies in a dark room. Input lag is low, especially at 4k, and motion handling is excellent which is great...

Sony XBR X900F 4K UHD TV review: Great image processing, but restrained color

Sony's XBR X900F can handle just about any kind of material with aplomb, including HDR. But its color palette is subdued and light bleed on black backgrounds is noticeable with the Xtended Dynamic Range function engaged.

Excellent image processing ; Plenty bright for HDR ; Tight fit and finish

Color palette suffers from a minor blue shift ; Mild, though smooth blooming around bright objects on a dark background ; Middling audio performance

Not having to deal with picture artifacts such as moiré, jaggies, and the like is a huge plus for the X900F. And despite my acuity and bleed complaints, its picture quality with the vast majority of material is well within the ballpark when compared to...

Sony XBR-X900F 65-inch 4K TV Review: Very Strong Performance, Minor Flaws

The Sony XBR-X900F 65-inch TV has a lot going for it, from its sleek, metal-framed design to its impressive backlight. In the most important areas, namely display performance and functionality, it's a top performer. But our enthusiasm is tempered; the...

Clean design ; Excellent performance ; Bright backlight ; Google Chromecast and Assistant built in

Awkwardly angled port placement ; Mediocre audio ; Clunky remote ; Android TV has its flaws ; Waiting for Dolby Vision support

The Sony XBR-X900F offers excellent overall performance and impressive brightness, but the audio could be better.

Sony Bravia X900F Series (XBR-65X900F) review

2018's first new big-brand TV is a beast

Excellent HDR picture quality ; Excellent SDR picture quality ; Clean, open sound ; Fair value

Android TV is frustrating ; Some light bloom ; Limited effective viewing angle ; Divisive design

Sony’s inspired decision to use a direct LED lighting system and local dimming in the X900F makes the XBR-65X900F an outstanding model for the money. Inevitably, given its mid-level price point, it’s not quite perfect. But even in these early stages of...
