Bravia HX850 successor -W900A with Quantum Dot !
- Thread starter avmaxfan

W800 does not have the display components that made the HX850 such a success. In fact, it is having a hard time matching its own predecessor hx750.
so true hx750 has 240 hz refresh rate n indications are w800a has 120hz:sad:

Sony India website says W800A has 400Hz refresh rate
Motionflow Motionflow XR 400 Hz
KDL-55W800A : W800 Series : BRAVIA HD TV (LED & LCD) : Sony India
refresh rate is how fast the image on the screen is refreshed every millisecond.
motionflow according to sony creates additional pictures which inserts into fast-moving sequences to effectively double the number of pictures, or frames, that make up the sequence.

No. Both HX750 and W800 have 120/100hz panel with 400 hz motionflow. No difference.
Only HX850/HX950 had 240/200hz panels last year
Only HX850/HX950 had 240/200hz panels last year

Where did you get that picture from mayhem ?
I think that's a faulty set. From what I've read most owners don't see any clouding, only a few with faulty sets do.

Saw this in another forum where the guy got his TV just 2 days back. Another one reported faulty viewing angles.

i too hope its one of the faulty ones cos i was going to get this one ?
According to cnet, w900 is the only model in 2013 ,that uses the same edgelit leds with local dimming, as the one used by the great hx850.
This is a shame ,as it is sony's tradition to include a previous year's successful premium PQ processing into the next year's more affordable tvs.
I expected some goodness of hx850 in w850

There is one. This time they have put the XReality Pro in the w800 which was missing in last year's mid range. This will lead to better up-scaling of SD content,no doubt about that, but what about the other stuff which were already perfected in the previous iteration like contrast, deep black levels, etc.:sad:

X-Reality PRO is standard on ALL 2013 models -right from W600A to W900

Thats exactly my point. A successful technology like the local dimming of hx850 will always remain a premium I guess.
A PQ enthusiast who cannot afford a w900a has no other option but to go for a cheaper value option like sammy 51f8500 for bright rooms or the well acclaimed st60 for moderately lit rooms.
Totally agree with you on this.

Well, they may be cheaper but are superior in some ways. F8500 and ST60 have better black level/contrast and viewing angles compared to W900. Whereas W900 will have better colors than both due to Triluminos.
