Comment on Looking for TV recommendations

The distance and the budget call for 75-85". I have had good luck with an entry level Sony. I bought an X85K 85" two years ago. It’s one step above the cheapest model. The cheapest model was an IPS panel which had a bit shittier performance. I don’t recall in what regard. X85K is a Samsung panel. It’s a standard no-nonsense LED side backlight which is very robust over time. The original unit was a lemon. It developed a line across the screen. I got it replaced under warranty. The second unit has been flawless so far. Software-wise, it’s a bog-standard Android TV/Google TV. Doesn’t require Internet connection to setup. With that said I use a CCwGTV with it and I don’t hear a peep from the TV OS about anything. The only thing I didn’t like about it was the price at the time.
