IMAGE GENERAL / Clouding
The picture is really very good. Contrary to other reviews occurs when my TV only minimal Clouding on (top right), which bother me in any way (and I am very sensitive). I must say though that I have returned with the first copy for heavy clouding. So it seems to be quite a large series dispersion.
SD PICTURE
The TV comes very well with normal SD picture, which (with appropriate quality of transmitted - the variations are here for business ...) really impressed me. It is for SD amazingly sharp.
HD IMAGE
The HD picture is truly breathtaking, the colors are gorgeous and the sharpness is very good.
BLACK LEVEL
The black level is very good for my taste, here can be on the TV too much to adjust, so that every user should reach his personal perfect black level (some like it lighter, some darker).
Motion sharpness
The sharpness of movement is very impressive. This is the biggest difference to our beloved Sharp-back LED TV. Fast scenes are sharp and vivid. Here is paying off that Sony 4K X-Reality PRO image processing engine used, the X95 and X9 is used also in the top models.
COLOURS
The colors of the TV come over very well, also here can be extremely much set, so it should be able to adjust also each be picture perfect. Sony used in the X85 the Triluminos technology, which otherwise only is used in the top models X95, X9 and W95.
3D
3D works very well with the X85, the effects are partially really enormous. This is passive 3D, so you can also use the normal 3D glasses from the last visit to the cinema.
4K
At 4K / UHD I can not say anything because I have not tested it. But it seems to be such that only by the technology the image even at SD or HD very sharp or sharper comes across.
PROCESSING AND CONTROL, REMOTE CONTROLS
The build quality is good, the design is simple and I like personally very well. Due to the full VESA compatibility, the TV can be very good to existing holders Fit (is unfortunately not always the case at Sony ...).
The menu I like very much, everything is clear and logically structured. Smart TV or connecting to the Internet via Wi-Fi worked great, inspected more closely I have this function but not yet.
The two remotes I really like (the TV was also a touch remote control with, works quite well if I'll use them permanently, I know not yet), but it annoys me that Sony directly to the D-pad more keys ordered. When controlling the menus I press frequently accidentally hit the wrong button. It's annoying sometimes.
CONCLUSION
All in all, a strong buy recommendation. Should the TV Clouding have exchanged it with a new one. This effort should definitely take into account, because you get a first-class X85 with sustainable TV at an unbeatable price.
