X85j is edge ledThis may seem like a daft question, but reading that press release (which says the X90J is "mid-range"), I'm not clear on the "hierarchy" of the non-OLED Sonys this year.
Does it go:
X95J
X90J
X85J
Or:
X95J
X85J
X90J
?
In other words, which is higher tier - the X85J or the X90J?
Not sure where x94j fits ?X85j is edge led
X90j is full array local dimming
Not sure where x94j fits ?
Or its maybe a currys or similar only, version of x95j with a different coloured stand or similar?
Probably a currys or similar model.Looking at the specs, the x94J is a variant of the X90J. The only difference appears to be the legs/feet/stand.
Aluminium Blade Stand (X94J) vs Slim Blade stand
JL , Currys , Ask Direct , Sony Center have it listed .Probably a currys or similar model.

Congratulations.Greetings.
I own the x94j. The difference between it and the x90j is the premium aluminium blade stands and also based on the spec sheet the 'color enrichment technology', whatever that adds compared to the simple x90j model.
Source: Local Dimming on TVs: Direct-Lit, Full-Array, and Edge-LitNumber and Size of Dimming Zones: With local dimming, different groupings of LEDs – called zones – are dimmed or brightened at the same time. With many small zones, it's easy to control how each zone affects the image. Fewer zones cover bigger areas of the screen, which could lead to more blooming. By looking at how much space is brightened around the white dot at any given time, you should be able to get an idea of the size of the zones. Also, we use this video to count the dimming zones. However, we don't publish how many zones there are because it's an estimate and not an exact number.
Congratulations.
Did you test the number of zones on your X94J by chance? if yes how much ? because I think that the X94J has certain differences with the X90J there is not that the stand which makes a difference.
Thank you.

in my opinion a series does not replace 4 series, logically the X90/92J only replaces the XH90/92 not the X90/92,93J and the X94J !@Vagval13 The XJ90 can't get as bright as the XH9505 so if you combine the reduced brightness capability with a potentially improved local dimming algorithm then what you are describing isn't surprising. It's not exactly a fair comparison though given theax brightness differential.
@technomen The XJ90/94 is the replacement for the XH90/92 series.
The yet to be released 65XJ95 is the replacement for the XH9505

First of all i still do want to stress that this tv has yet to receive firmware updates so everything is based on the out of the box firmware. The more i use this tv the more it is apparent that it is much better than the xh95. Yes it can't get as bright but still gets plenty bright for an led tv. Secondly the gradient preset for hdr tone mapping utilizes the xr processor for the very best results in small highlights (2-5-10% window) i have seen on a tv. Generally the way it circulates light in the panel is great. I thought the xh95 was great, but just couldn't get ovet the light bleed at times especially in 4k content. This now is almost a non issue.in my opinion a series does not replace 4 series, logically the X90/92J only replaces the XH90/92 not the X90/92,93J and the X94J !
the X95J replaces the ZF9 from 2018 and the ZD9 from 2016 !
this is my reasoning everyone is free to agree or not.
Has anyone here seen the TV in person and can vouch that the image quality justifies the eye watering price?Super annoyed at X95J starting from 65" and the fact that it's starting at £2200. Sony is on special type of crack.
I’ve got the 50” X89J coming on Tuesday! (X85J with premium stand) will let you guys know how it is!
