Most resolutions are accepted. To get chroma 4:4:4, select 'Game' or 'Graphics' picture mode. For 4k / 60Hz / 4:4:4, you also need to set the HDMI input to 'Enhanced format' (under 'External inputs' menu). Just like with last year's Sony TVs, 1080p / 120Hz produces little artifacts (lines), but this shouldn't be too bothersome while gaming. The 'Graphics' picture mode has fewer of these little artifacts. | 85" - Edge led (below)

3 gamuts (Rec.709, DCI, Rec.2020)
but no CMS (Color Management System) to calibrate these gamuts
There are also several preset gamma, black level adjustment, contrast and backlight. The Pro Cinema mode is still the mode plus the near Cinema colorimetry with Delta E of 2.5 average on the gray scale (for rap, below 3 is considered the excesses are not visible) but spreads may rise to 4 in the last gray levels. The color space is also very fair with an average Delta E of 2.8 on the Color Checker and 3.7 on saturations. The average color temperature is 6770K or 6500K very close to the search. Gamma, meanwhile, is 1.8 by default, so more to view in bright room, but as the Advanced Mode Improvement of Contrasts (ACE) is enabled by default, we see that it is not at all linear. Moreover, this measure gamma is interesting because it shows that this mode does not clog blacks, but whites are still burned, so we lose grayscale. That said, calibrating the XD85 we were able to maintain a linear gamma with ACE enabled to Low or Medium. The XD85 can therefore be used like that, without calibration, but for the more demanding it is still advisable to have provided an effective probe, because with so few differences, a cheap probe could do more harm only good. | In Europe it will exist in three design variants named
,KD-XD8505B (black) ,KD-XD8577S (silver) , ,KD-XD8588B (black) ,KD-XD8599B (black).
What differences between references XD8505, XD8577 and XD8599? Let me be clear: no! This is simply references marketed only to please some signs that make large volumes of sales, so they do not suffer from competition on the Internet. You will probably see a little difference, often on the index of fluidity XR1000 instead of XR800, but these are purely marketing indices. There is no visible difference between a Motionflow XR800 and XR1000.
ACE (Advanced Contrast Enhancer), the famous setting "Improvement of Advanced Contrast" could be compared to a very efficient dynamic contrast. Still, I always advise to disable dynamic contrasts, but that ACE is not like the others. Note that I do not say it is faultless, but it brings so many dynamics of the image on an IPS panel that is difficult to do without. Moreover, it enables up to 1200: 1 ANSI contrast. Its main strength is that it can offer a hyper dynamic image, without clogging the black (it is the opposite, it opens totally black and greatly improves readability in dark scenes). In lit room or in daylight, the illusion is so perfect, you'd swear that this TV has a contrast very powerful, even more powerful than some VA panels. Better, this ACE is devilishly effective with UHD Blu-ray because it totally transforms HDR rendering. No, the HDR seems bland, uninteresting and bridled, while if it is active, HDR rendering is very nice.

Indeed, despite a very limited coverage Rec.2020, the XD85 offers one of the best colorimetric market through its IPS panel and its algorithm Triluminos remastered colors in Wide Gamut very effectively maintaining a natural. Only the DX900 who offered me a better colorimetry thanks to its LED red phosphorus that help provide intense red that IPS while retaining the advantages of a VA panel. In addition, Sony XD85 offers colorimetry very fair cardboard output and angles very open visions that allow the whole family to enjoy a good image regardless of his place on the couch.
However, this TV is clearly not recommended for those who watch their movies in dark room. Besides, if you watch your movies in darkened room, there is absolutely no reason to buy the XD85, since the X85C offers exactly the same functionality, but with a VA panel and a very good contrast. True, the colors will be slightly less beautiful but dark room contrast is still paramount.
The Sony XD85 is limited to enjoy the UHD Blu-ray, with a slab 8 bit HDR rendering flanged (bright peak at 425 cd / m², whatever the size of the target HDR), but again, the ACE saves setting and can offer an ultra dynamic image, very pleasant to look lit room. Nevertheless, the IPS puts his HDR limits with enough gray black, which can amount to more than 0.30 cd / m² at the brightest images, so again, you better watch Blu-ray UHD illuminated room .
- + Reality Creation: very efficient video post-processing of HD content / UHD
- + one of the best upscaling UHD market
- + Motionflow: best motion compensation market
- + The ACE (Advanced Improvement Contarstes) boosts the dynamics, especially in HDR.
- + A perceived contrast and amazing dynamic to an IPS panel
- + A really beautiful color matching, very fair cardboard output in Rec.709 as HDR
- + Viewing angle twice as wide a VA panel
- + Simple calibration, fast and efficient!
- + ghosting time very good, good precision in movements
- + Inputlag reduced (35ms) + Quick rΓ©mance time (9.6ms), excellent for play
- + The possibilities offered by the Android OS TV
- + A more responsive interface, many bugs have been fixed, but there are still ...
- + Dual tuner DVB-T2 / S2 compatible with 4K channels, PVR and PIP functions
- + HDMI 2.0a compatible HDR10, 4K/60, 1080p/120Hz, BT.2020
- + Excellent performances in lit room
- + honorable and good audio quality sound power
- - Contrast too feeble for viewing in dark room
- - Some visible leaks if it is set too high or too low relative to the center of the slab
- - Clouding some, though not visible in lit room
- - Average video processing with SD sources
- - Finish and manufacturing quality rather average
- - No Local Dimming
- - The abandonment of 3D on an IPS panel (passive 3D slab UHD is wearing beautiful)
- - A HDR too restrained, too narrow gamut Rec.2020
- - No 10 bit panel
- - No ISFccc, or Color Management System (CMS)
- - Still bugs with Android TV (videos stretched in multimedia playback, reboot, frequent loss of signal with HDMI devices HDCP 1.1, remote control does not respond fairly regularly, saccades with KODI, no audio bitstream with 5.1 KODI)
- - Too many applications not optimized for Android TV
- - Lacks a little power for a better experience with Android TV
