Amazon Canada released their HDTV's. Not great prices, and since their tablets use a 32-bit crippled version of Android (assuming they use something similar for the HDTV) - I'd say try to avoid unless the price really drops.

Yea sorry about that. Figured I would've clarified. I'm a sucker for visuals, so my advice is more for idiots like me than the average consumer. Like I mentioned before, even the cheapest TV will blow most people away these days.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

It just made me want a 950 even more, just couldn't justify the price. I remember the big hype of the 900 being the HDMI 2.1, but that was never a requirement for me.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Smaller basement setup with no direct sunlight, and the 900H works well. Let me know if you ever sell your 950, Rage
So your a no go on those TCLs with the mini-LEDS QLEDS? I was really set on grabbing one of those but after hearing all the issues of the panel lottery (dead LEDS on new tvs) I opted to grab better brand nameThis quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

Well imagine if instead of writing that letter to the editor, she just posts on a car forum for car enthusiasts. That's Kritafo.

Any good BF deals on a 75"? Looking from an entry-mid level, nothing super fancy. TV will be in the basement with very controlled lighting.
TCL 4 and 5 series was on sale this morning but price seemed to revert back to normal now.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
LG 86" seems to have the most off MSRP at around $2100-$2300 for a entry level panel. Hisense is the only one have a sub $1K price for a 75".
Unless you go into the weeds with brands like RCA and Skyworth, I'm sure Walmart has a bunch of RCA for dirt cheap.

Fair, seems to be a pretty steep dropoff in quality under the ~$1500 mark so I went with the X90J. I don't game much so the lack of VRR shouldn't be an issue.
Finally got around to setting mine up. Installing it solo is a bit tough and having to lift it up onto a fireplace mantle was a task, with a injured arm (tennis elbow) but luckily TVs are light as heck these days. But man the size difference from 42 to 65 is overwhelming hahaha. It barely fit onto my mantle.
Now someone recommend a decent budget sound bar, Sonos Arc is out of my budget.

As for TCL 4 series (434): Built in processor is not strong enough to decode 4K Youtube. HDR is not very accurate on PS4, but still a huge difference compared to none at all.

I ordered this one:This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

Not sure if it’s the best value but there was a refurbished unit for $600 so gave it a shot.
I just got the LG
https://www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/product...oofer/15387895
one of the few in that price range that has room calibration and the highest rated on rtings.
The HT-Z9F sounded slightly better but the subwoofer included sucked.
Posting only to say I've posted on the 69th page of this thread.
"Nice!"
Snagged a 55" Samsung Frame on a refurb deal for $8xx. High wife acceptance factor; low beyond epeen length. Such is married life.

I am having second thoughts on the x90j. Was looking at the 65U68G and seems to be a pretty close match to the x90j but is $500 cheaper and has VRR which should match up well with the Xbox Series X that will be hooked to the TV full time. I am a bit worried about the viewing angles for the Hisense as the couch in my basement is not very far away from the wall that the tv will be on.
The price difference basically pays for the sound bar which is a major plus for the Hisense.
Any thoughts? Keep the sony or swap it out?
'twas a one-off via a third party seller on bestbuy's website. I was looking around for BF prices and spotted it. I'd recommend regularly checking the page if you're a gamblin' man like myself.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Perhaps stocktrack.ca could help here? I'm not sure if it supports third party sellers. Using keepa or camelcamelcamel on amazon.ca might also be a helpful way to spot a refurb/warehouse deal if it comes up.
Package is supposed to deliver today so we'll find out soon whether i just wasted $$$ or got an okay deal on a lightly-cosmetically-damaged TV. Will report back.
Here's an open box example: https://www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/product...n-box/15644472 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ (sold out rn but the fact that the listing is still up seems to imply another might pop up).
