Hi,
Just bought a 85" Z9K! Bought it after Sony announced their 2024 lineup and talked to Robert at Value Electronics and he said that the Z9K will still be carried over this year as the 8K model still.
I'm upgrading from a 75" Z8H and I'm actually surprised how much cleaner the picture quality is...I wasn't expecting that much improvement.
I love the Z9K!
I do have a few questions comparing it to the Z8H...
1. With the same settings (Custom and Warm Temp) on my Z8H and applied the same to my Z9K I noticed the Z9K is more on pink/red hue...is that the same for everyone here?
2. When at the home screen, Netflix, YouTube menus are dim and only brightens when you play videos...is that how its supposed to be?
3. When I turn off the ambient light setting I noticed the sub items under it like auto tone curve and auto luminance are still says "On" even though its greyed out...are they still actually on?
4. Is there a way I can stop the TV from going to Game Mode for my Xbox Series X and PS5 when I have the HDMI settings on Enhanced 4K 120hz VRR/ALM?
5. All the noise reduction and contrast/black enhancer are Off by default. I did turn off smooth gradation also...should I leave it at low?
6. I noticed that on HDMI 2 & 3 If I have it on Enhanced Dolby Vision the PS5 sees it as just a HDMI 2.0 and switched to YUV422 instead of RGB...why is that?
Thanks in advance to all!
