Oh that’s under the X93L too, that’s a bit worrisome but I’m assuming it’s great still, if the blooming and out of box accuracy are highly rated then I’m sold still

8.4 (B7) vs 8.5 (93L) vs 8.6 (95L)

It loses points for viewing angle and reflections but for me that’s not a concern.

other areas it basically matches of beats the 95L. Blooming is the same as the 93 but lower than the 95 (8.0 vs 8.5)

Out of the box pre calibration is better then both 8.7 vs 8.0 (95L which is the lowest)

I think personally it sits between the 93 & 95 and just under the 95 overall but clutching straws here.

8.4 rtings overall. Happy with that! Just under the x95L where I thought it would land but based on the early review I’m very happy where it sits.

Sounds like fun. I’d like to make a guess as well. My guess would be anywhere between 8.3 - 9 for Blooming. Could be better or worse than the X95L. For the Bravia 9, I’m guessing somewhere above X95L, 8.9 - 9.4. I saw blooming so I doubt it will get a 10, but it seemed significantly better than the X95L to my eyes. Seering brightness with just faint and small amount of blooming. Agreed with you. 8.5 for a mini led is within my tolerance range as well. I doubt any mini leds will achieve 10 for the next 2-3 years unless they increase zone count to closer match the size of individual pixels.

I think you maybe right, I agree with that, probably a 9.5 for the highest with the Bravia 9 but probably a 9 for blooming, which is phenomenal for a mini-led, I saw your bravia 9 video that there was a touch of blooming, but it was incredibly faint, like you had to turn the iso very far up to find it and considering how bright the tv is, I think it might be/will be the best miniled on the market, I’d say within 3 weeks or a month we’ll have a review of the Bravia 9.

P.S Bravia 7 review is up for early access!

By “1440p capable” you mean it display 1440p signal from pc ? yes , it works no reason not to work really , in fact you can go all the way down to 640x480. With that being said , it’s not recommended to use a resolution less than the panel resolution as you will be getting a blurrier image than a native 1440p panel at the same size . you’ll be better served with 4k signal and than lowering the game internal resolution from it’s settings

exactly yes. Not really. The past few years it was not possible to set 1440p. (on Sony Tv’s) Few years ago it was possible, but only with a refresh rate of 60hz max.

But you’re right. I never thought about lowering the internal resolution. Thanks for that :D

Ahhhh okay, I appreciate the honest answer thank you, I definitely get a picture of what you mean but I’ll definitely to see for myself and wait for reviews but I think I’m still comfy with the Bravia 7 definitely. From what I can gather it seems that they’re about equal but behave a little differently, I’m going to make a guess that the Bravia 7 will score an 8.5 for blooming with Rtings, if it is then that’s a definite yes from me, I know the Bravia 9 will be better but 8.5 for a mini led is still fantastic, an 8 is even still great, we shall see
