It was a bit difficult task to choose between LG and Sony but at last quality wins over features. I am also thankful to Kohinoor electronics shop salesman who help me a lot to firmly take decision. By no means Samsung or LG bad . They are equally capable TV but I put my vote on Sony due to long relationship with Sony as a brand( 2 mini hifi system, 1 LED TV, 1 walkman), Previous Sony TV experience ( healthy 6 Yrs). Thanks to all FM for their support and suggestions.

There is nothing wrong in buying a demo unit if it is offered to you @ 50% discount or more bcoz it will carry one year manufacturing warranty from the date of purchase.

I was also confused as it was written last piece so I bargain hard and got it for 125k with three years comprehensive warranty and additional 2 years warranty with additional cost of 12K.
My price also excluding extended warranty.

You can check my opinion on LG 55UJ752t in this thread. LG also equally capable TV, little inexpensive than Sony and with one year comprehensive and one year panel warranty. LG also come with Dolby Vision. This is the best alternative for X9000e. Sony x9000e is replaced with new f series so difficult to get , else go with existing deals....
Go for 55X9300E rather than X9000F. It is over priced now. I guess it'll get the price cut down the year. However, it is not successor to the 2017 X9300E. It fall between 2017 9000E and 9000F. Only area it has improvement over the 9300E is motion handling. That also not night and day difference.
X9300E is far superior to X9000F in every aspects, both picture and sound quality. And not to mention the build quality.
Surely will get better deals on 55X9300E and also get the price significantly down than 9000F if negotiate harder. Most shops wanted to clear out their 2017 stock.

Sony LED TV are always overpriced here. In Dubai most of LED TV are significantly cheaper than India. (Custom duty and airlines charges applicable extra) . Comparatively Philips and Panasonic LEDs are cheaper with good build and picture quality.
I didn't get actual warranty of your TV. Is this total five years warranty.

Actually comprehensive warranty one year with product, then additional two year comprehensive warranty included in 125K. ( Total 3 yrs) then I can extend to another 2 Yrs ( Total 5 Yrs) with additional cost of 12K.
Any idea when the 55X9000f will be price down. Then I will wait & move to 9000F.
Last year (2017) 55X9000E launched above 2 lacs, but reduced to 129900/- in March 2018. So the price for 9000F will come down in 2019 ( may be in second quarter). At that time , sony will launch new 2019 line up, so seller will also sell last pieces at low price. So you will need to wait for another 1 year.

Don't think before last quarter of 2018. I observed their price get reduced to minimum in March and after that those models disappear. Sometimes unable to understand their logic behind prices. MRP of 55X8500 in sony site is Rs.184900, but in Sony store, they display price Rs154900, and after asking the price they say it's Rs139900 and can negotiate further.

As @forever.pramod mentioned, the launch price will get reduced to minimum in march. Thats called March Madness. Not only Sony, its applicable to all brands. Its the financial year end, so all the retail chain want to meet their sales target of the year by march end. Every consumer item will get sooper- dooper offer in march, even auto vehicles also.
Apart from the march offer, the festive season(Diwali) will see price cut with good deals.

I think 55x9000f cost Rs. 225K and 55x8500 was 180K in Sony World, Mumbai last week. Both are MRP..
55X9000f I get Rs.170k now.
Purchase the Audiolab 6000A Integrated Amplifier at a special offer price.
