@siracusa Is the Sony A95L still your overall pick for TVs today? How’d the Bravia 8 ii and LG G5 stack up in the end?
@siracusa P.S. I tried doing a bunch of searches to see if you made recommendations lately. I think I remember a back-and-forth with @stephenrobles not too long ago. Maybe worth a page on your site to house your latest picks in categories that you often get asked recommendations for? 🙂
@jarrod The A95L is still great (if you can find one), but the Bravia 8 II gets brighter, and that may make up for the other areas where it might fall short of the A95L.
The G5 and G6 get even brighter, but I’d take either Sony over the G5 and G6 if you can tolerate the lower brightness and if you don’t care about high-frame-rate (120fps or more) and low input lag for gaming, and if you don’t need four HDMI 2.1 ports.
@jarrod All four of those TVs (A95L, Bravia 8 II, G5, and G6) are good TVs that I would recommend. It all depends on what you value more, and what your room needs.
@siracusa Thank you! This TV would primarily be for TV/movies. Our current LG C9 would become the gaming TV. I’m mostly looking for bigger size, better contrast, and a bit brighter than the C9. Though I haven’t really played with the C9’s brightness settings, so that may not even be a real factor. Both Amazon and Sony have a good deal on the 77” A95L right now, but the Bravia 8 II still beats it on price.
