Advice for a 65" TV

[petow23]

I am in search of a new 65" TV. My biggest concern is that it looks good when watching sports, especially hockey and motocross. I would also like it too look good for TV and movies, but sports are definitely more important. Low input lag would be a plus, but don't game that much. My budget would be somewhere around $1,000 but would go higher for the right TV.

Thanks

Samsung NU8000 or Vizio P series. If you want good HDR you'll want the Sony X900F. Grab them whilst in clearance pricing before 2019 models come out.

I'm thinking of pulling the trigger on the Sony X900F. Everyone seems to say hockey looks great on it. It's $100 off at Best Buy. Do you think it will go down more?

Do you think it will go down more?

Its possible but I doubt it, its already very cheap since its a 2018 model with 2019 models now entering shops.

Ok. Thought they might take a little more off. The NU8000 is $300 off ($899 down from $1,199) and the X900F is only $100 off ($1,699 down from $1,799)

The X900F is being carried over into 2019 so probably won’t drop in price much.

That makes sense now. Thanks for the info

That is only compared to the last price drop. 2019 models will cost roughly 50% more for the same tech on release.

A 65" NU8000 for $899. I'd of snapped that up in UK prices. Probably not many left now. Richer Sounds were out of stock for a while. Telesales did say more were coming but the 65" has just been dropped from the website.
