When we cover televisions, we often talk about the most popular 55 and 65-inch versions, but as someone who has an 85-inch TV in their guest room, I know the appeal of a big screen. Today, I have a deal for you on the larger end of Sony’s Bravia 9 Series screens, with a $900 discount on the 75-inch modeland a a hefty $1,800 markdown on the 85-inch version.
In addition to taking up an entire wall in your living room, these large screens are also super bright, reaching a claimed 3,000 nits at peak brightness.

Although the viewing angles don’t quite compete with the best OLED screens, Sony has some tricks up its sleeve, such as antireflection coating and wide-panel tech, which should ensure that everyone on the sofa has a good view. The occasional rainbow that pops up as a result is most noticeable in dark scenes in a bright room, which isn’t exactly the best viewing condition regardless of screen size or panel type.
It’s not all perfect, unfortunately. There are only two HDMI 2.1 ports, and only one of them is an eARC port, therefore it is probably tied to your sound bar. Visual viewers may also see some compatibility issues, especially around screen edges.
If you feel like you’re not ready for the big leagues, or you just don’t have room in your living room, the The 65-inch Sony Bravia 9 model is marked up to $2,000a $1,000 discount, and a more standard-sized display. However, if you can save room on your wall, the 75-inch model is only $2,600 and is very impressiveand the 85-inch version, while truly enormous, deeply discounted at $3,000.
