Our Verdict
Sony X90L/X90CL
Sony X77L/X77CL
The Sony X90L/X90CL is far better than the Sony X77L/X77CL. The X90L is far brighter in HDR and SDR, with much better contrast. It also has a wider color gamut and better image processing, so everything pops more on it than on the cheaper X77L. The X90L is also the much better choice for gaming due to its 4k @ 120Hz support and wide VRR range, while the X77L is limited to 60Hz with no VRR.
