Sony X850F TV Review - RTINGS.com

Hands-on review of the 2018 Sony X850F 4k TV https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07... The Sony X850F is a 4k IPS TV which is great for those with wide seating. In this review, we compare it to 4 other popular models. Full review: https://www.rtings.com/tv/reviews/son... The X850F has a low native contrast ratio, so blacks appear gray in a dark room. This isn’t noticeable when viewed in a brighter room though, and the image also remains accurate when viewed at an angle. It is a great choice for TV shows or sports in a wide room, or for use as a PC monitor. Model tested: 65” (XBR-65X850F) Should also be valid for the 75" (XBR-75X850F) Note that the 85" model (XBR-85X850F) has a VA type panel, and performs differently to the other sizes. We expect it to have a higher native contrast ratio resulting in deeper blacks when viewed in a dark room, but the image degrades when viewed at an angle.
