For movie and sport in 4K , this is amazing. But I just watch IPTV content, most of it in sdr. Picture is grainy a little bit. Maybe the Sony would not be better. This is I want to know. Do you know if the Nvidia shield pro would help

I was having problems with my picture quality on IPTV running it just through the tv. I bought a google chromecast 4K for like ~$60 and it fixed everything. I just run Tivimate app through the chromecast plugged into the tv. I have a pretty cheap tv and everything looks incredible now.

I have the Google chromecast 4K I like it but wondering, if a better box would help for picture quality. I heard good thing about Apple TV but can not put Tivimate

Also, your x90l How you compare picture quality to your CX. Is it black good enough, the blooming, on hockey do you have stutter, artifact, blurry image when the center caméra. When you see a picture of a city at night, is it all detail

My buddy owns both the Nvidia Shield Pro and Chromecast 4K and says that while the Shield is a bit better, it’s not even close to 4x the cost better. Fwiw.

Good news, the option to choose your style is back.
Bad news, the only option is the default light mode...

Sounds like Henry Ford: You can have any color of car as long as it is black!

Do you see a difference between TSN and sportsnet. Mine both are 60fps but sportsnet feel like a good 1080p

My understanding, which could be wrong, is that the processor (upscaling, speed of processing, quality, etc.) is important to getting a great picture on a 4K TV. Also important is the display which affects the speed of change of the brightness and color of the moving picture.

I have two top end 4K Sony TVs: a 3 year old 42 inch in my family room and a new 2024 85 inch in my rec room. I am still in the process of installing the 85" version with a new Denon Receiver and 11.1 speakers. I have been a bit lazy getting it done because I had to install 8 new speakers with new cables for rear surrounds and 4 Atmos height speakers. I don't use external streamers at this time.

Goodbye to a true artist. He will be missed.

Are you talking about their 4K channels?
For me I prefer TSN, for HD or 4K

But Prime has them both beat now.

Let me know, how good your Sony is when installing. Wich model

For hd, sportsnet and tva sport lots better than TSN and rds

Agree prime the best

Ya it might help a bit. I'm still on the reserved side when it comes to processing on the fly but I much prefer Android external box functionality to built in smart TV platforms. Sometimes you can run in to other things going on that another device ends up solving or handling better for reasons other than just PQ processing, so it can be worth a try. If you order from Amazon, you can always return it for a full refund if it doesn't improve things. Select a reason for return that puts the shipping cost on them and you're $0 out of pocket to try it. I've done that to try or compare devices I wasn't sure of.

I would say my X90L exceeds my CX in some ways, and not in others. Keep in mind it was basically the same price for a 20" bigger size, so prices weren't equal, but I'd say it's more tech trade offs than "better". It's better suited for a bright room with windows to deal with since it is capable of a significantly brighter image. That's probably the biggest thing. IMO OLED's are for light controlled rooms and LED's are for the brighter ones with windows. Generally speaking. With Local dimming on the 90L, I find the black levels are excellent and not far off OLED. Technically the CX wins out for being able to have pure black that OLED's are capable of, but I'm more than happy with the 90L's black levels. Near black details are much better resolved on the 90L but that's something OLED's have typically struggled with. There is some blooming on the 90L, but it doesn't bother me. Certainly not as much as the auto brightness limiting on the CX does. Those things seem to be subjective for what bothers users more, so ymmv. I find hockey is better on the 90L and watch it there typically. It handles motion better with less stutter and produces a brighter more accurate white. Can't say finer details or artifacts are an issue on either. I enjoy gaming on both and they're both fully capable of the new standards. I don't notice lost details on night scenes, and in reviews, the 90L was celebrated for handling this better than its comparable competitors. I did a ton of research and the X90L was the sweet spot for price and performance, but things may have changed.
