Hi,
I'm after some advice on choosing a TV. I can get a Samsung QE59Q80T for £799 (directly from Samsung using a corporate discount from work), or the Sony XG9005 for the same price.
Any views? I get the impression that the Sony is probably better for motion (watching sport), which it will be used for, they both have full array screens (although the QLED may be better). I've read conflicting information about whether the Sony is 10-bit or 8-bit, and I know the Samsung is 8-bit.
It will be used with Sky-Q, and a PS3, and via a Denon AVR-2200W (as it also outputs to a 1080p projector).
Depending on which reviews I read of the Q80T, it either has the best upscaling on the market, or substandard upscaling (according to Which).
The TV it will replace is a 15-year-old 32" Samsung 720p, so I'm sure either will be a significant upgrade.
Or is there anything else I should consider at that price point? I have a limitation in size of 640mm height (wall mounted), so can't go bigger than a 49/50 inch screen.
