Can the xh90 do 4k @ 120hz fully

Banksy74 — Fri, 22 Jan 2021 16:49:55 GMT

The xh90 (uk) has been advertised as being able to display 4k @ 120hz for
fast clear motion. Unfortunately so far although the motion is smooth ,
clear it is not. I have read many sources from renowned experts regarding
the so called 4k @ 120hz burr. I have myslef played destiny 2 and some of
the horizontal lines character bars etc flicker and shimmer and have what
is know as the rope effect. In tests it seems like the sony xh90 can not do
native 4k @ 120hz, the results conclude as of now it can not
do per pixel resolution on the vertical lines. Is this a hardware issue ?
Or software and is this TV able to fully do 4k at 120hz ?

Sony have released an update just yesterday, I wonder if it helps in any way. Have you tried it?

Also, could you explain what this means: "it can not do per pixel resolution on the vertical lines" ?

Below are 2 examples showing clearly that when tested with a more than
capable gpu top picture, then one below i can share a link

Sony has tried to address this issue but it as of now still is unable to do
full 4k when 120hz mode is enabled? Is this TV able to achieve full 4k
120hz with out blur? Or not? At 60 hz any resolution seems not to be
effected? I would honestly like to know if tye mediatek chip in the xh90
has enough power to process full 4k 120hz or not?

also these images too!, this is proof as of now that the sony xh90 can not do full 4k@120hz with out loss of detail . All I would like to know is this TV capable of doing full native 4k with no loss in pixel both on vertical or horizontal lines @120hz ?

I still haven't heard back. This is definitely a topic that's under investigation by Sony due to how much people are talking about it here. Which is good in my opinion.

Sooner or later we'll get an answer on what to expect of these TVs. My money is on Sony though judging from past experience.

I appreciate you're reply, can I ask do you work for sony ? Also if it is officially proven that this TV is unable to fully do 4k@120hz natively of which it has been advertised, would not that be mis sold or falsely advertised? Under the consumer right act 2015(uk) would a full refund be issued even if past the one month returns dates?

I understand that sony will now soon update the xh90 with VRR and ALLM. there is also and update for for a PS5 to automatically detect what TV model you have and adjust to optimise HDR automatically for better picture the Xh90 will include this. I am still unsure if this TV struggles with TRUE 4K @ 120hz or if it is simply a firmware problem an update could fix,or if it is a physical chip limitation of the TV.

Hey all,

I can see that a new update has been released a few days ago, it's not yet official that it's released with VRR and ALLM.
But there's no doubt that some TVs has been getting it, it's just Sony is saying that it's not a full release as some might come across bugs and glitches cause they've just started the rollout. And the update will be fully released still later this year.
But yea, some did get VRR ''with concerns of minor bugs here and there''.

Cheers.
