Costco - cheapest I have seen I think.

Costco are also doing the 75-inch Bravia 7 for £1080 instore.

 

[giggsy1977]

Haven't been in for a while. That's cheaper than the 65" in the app.

That price for the 75 is insane.

With the 55, Costco list it as the K55XR70U not the K55XR70PU - what does the lack of "P" denote?

Might be colour or something.

Tempted to go to Costco and get the Sony 75-inch but can’t really fit it in the car. Only 1 left in stock yesterday at my local Costco, it is nationwide though.

What screen you got currently?

​

Not sure. Usually a colour change or minor specification difference. Both look to have the same tuners built in for broadcast television. Only Sony will know I imagine. On their site it's listed as the K55XR70 with no suffix.

 

[R2D2]

What screen you got currently?

A very good Samsung 65S90C QD-OLED TV.

 

[giggsy1977]

Why do you need a 75 inch Sony then?!

 

[R2D2]

Why do you need a 75 inch Sony then?!

I don’t really, just a bit tempted by the price though, but no I won’t buy a new one.

 

[R2D2]

To be honest I think I would prefer a TCL TV over a Sony TV, they are cheaper and in my opinion probably better.

 

[giggsy1977]

Depends on your requirements I guess.
I like the TCL and think they are good value. I I'm sensitive to movement on screens and need good upscaling and processing, that's where Sony shine. Be good if I didn't as would save me money!

Make that the Samsung 65S90D just upgraded to that TV for very little money and got a 5 year warranty. 👍

 

[giggsy1977]

Why?!
Perfectly good 2023 OLED.
You were nearly buying the Bravia 7 as well.
I don't think your looking for deals helps with your buying issue.
Give it a break for a while and enjoy your current screen.

 

[R2D2]

I had a buyer lined up in my sister and I wanted a 5 year warranty and some potential screen burn warranty too.

Issue with the new TV and firmware update I did straight away apparently it cuts off nearly half the brightness and my TV is no where near the brightness of the S90C! Gone back, not buying another Samsung TV!

 

[R2D2]

Just bought the Sony Bravia 7 for 75-inch TV at Costco for £1080. Nearly dislocated my shoulder carrying the thing! It’s well good though, really happy. £1000 off too.

I even got Richer Sounds to price match Costco but they were going to charge on top of £1080 £45 for Costco membership, £60 for delivery and £200 because Sony were offering £200 cashback although Costco were not doing this deal. So £1360 in total if someone wants to call a Richer Sounds store and do a deal for that.

 

[giggsy1977]

Have you still got the Samsung S90C?

 

[R2D2]

Have you still got the Samsung S90C?

I am going to sell it.

 

[giggsy1977]

How do they compare?

 

[R2D2]

How do they compare?

The better TV is the Samsung but I like the bright colours of the Sony and the size too. Both have good sound. The Sony is very impressive and I really like it. I have never had a Sony LED TV since my Sony 46hx803 3D TV but I am so impressed. I could tell from my demo in Costco it was really good and it is.

 

[giggsy1977]

Looking at the 55 for my folks. Either that or an LG C4. Tough call.

Do they watch the news channels? If yes I would go for the Sony. There is not much in it though.
