    Sony XBR-55X900A 55-Inch 4K Ultra HD 120Hz 3D Smart LED TV (Black)

    • The image is crystal clear, the difference between 4K and 1080P becomes obvious when you view real 4k video on it
    • Also, the passive 3D image is reduced in intensity by the polarized viewing lenses, which limits utility of this Sony in bright rooms.
    • The image was totally smooth and film-like
    • Sony Tech Support website says that the PKG4.001AAA released on 23Dec13 supports the October 2013 HDMI 2.0 spec and supports 3840 x 2160p at 59.94/60Hz YCbCr 4:2:0 8bit and 4096 x 2160p at 59.94/60Hz YCbCr 4:2:0 8bit, which should handle data rates necessary for 1,920 x 1080p passive 3D images at 60 fps (but I know of no available content).
    • This Television has a great picture, bright colors, dark blacks, sharp images, and a really easy to use

    • I was able to lay my eyes on Sony's new 65" 4K TV in one of their stores, and I have to say this is hands-down the most crisp image I have ever seen
    • No TV is perfect but it's barely noticeable and when not seeing a pitch dark image the PQ is stunning
    • Also, Comcast transmits such a lousy image that this TV makes no difference when watching regular cable TV.
    • I have to say that i'm still blown away with the crisp, clean sharp images, 3D performance, and over all picture quality on this set
    • With the new HDMI 2.0 support provided by recent Sony firmware upgrades, the video bandwidth should support 1080p 3D images (one L HD image and one R HD image packed into a single 4K frame) but rumor says that the FPR was too tightly squeezed in the smaller 55-inch display to permit reliable production of 4096-line retarder films (somebody heard it from somebody who knows a Sony engineer, etc).
    • For instance, I have a top quality 1080p projector with all sorts of fancy video processing capability, but even with the best 1080p Bluray sources, the image gets unacceptably soft when projected on my 120" screen
    • You will not be annoyed as in certain theaters where the screen has scratches, dark spots, curvy lines and or the brightness isn't uniform.
