    Picked up one out of the two TV's.

    Went to Best Buy and they had the Sony 900F and 950G side by side and I stood there for a good 5-10 minutes and tired to notice in what way the 950G was better than 900F and I just could not!
    Ended up getting the 900F in 65" (the size I want to do for my purpose). Paid $1500 and got a 10% gift card ($150). It won't get put on for a while but looking forward to it when it does.
    I have the same one and you'll love it. Plus, the cheapest they were less than a year ago was $1,800 so you're even farther ahead.

    I just realized today that they finally ran out of the 65" F1 version that was brighter. I kept hoping for another sale on those because I missed the first one.

    The 2018 version is only brighter in some situations. It’s because the 2019 quantum X has more zones to reduce blooming in certain situations such as credits where there are bright spots in a very dark scene. It sacrifices brightness in scenes with a lot of spot brightness for better light control in darker scenes while maintaining the same brightness levels there. It’s a good compromise, as scenes with a lot of bright areas really need way more spot brightness (like 4000+ nits) to be effective, and no consumer tv comes close to that today.

    Any info on Hisense TVs? Could only find a different series on rtings

    This one would be mainly used for background noise/watching while cooking and washing up (mounted above a fireplace across from the kitchen, bright room).
    Hisense 55" $349

    Any better contenders in the ~$400 price range?

    The 65” is now down to 1569 and a $100 gift card back.

    Is this the latest and greatest Vizio or is this the 2018 version?

    Congrats! Get a 4K Dolby Vision source, throw on some Disney+ and see what it can do using Marvel movies.

    I need some TV guidance - will be used for 1080p gaming (PC video source, TV is just a monitor)

    - presently have an older, 55" Plasma, but flickers noticeably (= headaches)
    - have room for a 60" LCD (thin bezel)
    - is HDR a MUST have for gaming? I have a 50" LCD TV besides the plasma and it works just fine (no HDR)
    - about a 600$ budget (ie. not serious gaming)

    Recommendations? Walmart has some cheap shit, Proscan 4k TVs (450$)

    Gaming and HDR is an interesting combo. If you're a competitive player, you're probably not going to want HDR enabled as you're going to increase your lag. If you are just playing for fun, games like Shadow of the Tomb Raider are absolutely stunning in HDR.

    How fuckin’ fast does the price of that TV change? It’s gone up again FFS. I was contemplating picking it up but not no more. Hopefully you went there to get the difference back in time. Lol

    Yesterday was Cyber Monday...so my guess was the price was part of their Black Friday/Cyber Monday weekend deal....

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

    Yea just for kicks - I play super old games like modded GTA5, CS:Source and also now, Forza H3 and H4, the new Halo5 for PC. Just wondering if HDR is worth the extra 250$.

    That TV is the best bang for your buck. My one complaint about the TV is that it can't get that bright.
    I was thinking about upgrading my bedroom to that TV

    Some good info pages back in this thread.

    It is brighter than the Vizio M65 but I went with the Vizio due to brand recognition.
