Damn, they have different names in North America.

I wonder if the Sony XBR65X930D is the same as Sony 65" LED-TV KD65XD9305 here for a bit over $3000.

And the Sony XBR65Z9D  should be Sony 65" LED-TV KD-65ZD for $6000 (lol).

These TVs are not OLED, right? I would prefer an OLED, I heard they are the best.

What does "HD-10" mean on your TV?

Why do you set the limit at 65 inches? That is extremely huge. I think even in a big living room 55 inches is fine. But I really like even bigger. Yeah, I'm gonna start targeting 65 inches.

I set at 65" because that is what I got for 6-9ft distance from TV, smaller than that there really isn't any point on 4K for TV unless you are a lot closer to the TV. If you go for 49-55" I would say 3-5ft is the distance you would really see difference from 1080p to 4k.

Since its a big investiment better go big and solve issue than to think it wasn't enough.

As far as I know Sony isn't making OLED currently.

HD-10 is one HDR "protocol", but it isn't the same as full HDR and doesn't have the same richness. Too bad I didn't know that before buying my TV. But the one I got was 10k R$ (3k USD equivalent at the time) and the upper grade was 15k (5k USD) so I wouldn't have bought it kkkkk.

But if you have a smaller place and 55" is enough than you will be able to save a lot.

1.7k for 900 series and 1.4k for 800 series... But since I had 46" 1080p that was gorgeous I didn't see a point on gaining only 9" and 4k so wouldn't buy it for the living room.

Thanks for all the answers.

So this HD-10 protocol, it isn't the full resolution of 3960 x 2160? And you spent $3000 on it?

This is what's bothering me a lot right, I don't dare to buy a new TV because I'm so afraid something better will come soon after and my device will feel obsolete. And prices are so hard to determine. These new OLED TVs for $2500 and up, what if they are only $1500 one year from now?
