The Samsung Q60C is a better fit if you prefer a TV that offers better performance in a bright room and is generally better across a range of content including sports and gaming. However, be aware that it is more expensive. The Sony X77L is less costly and is superior for gaming, due to its lower input lag and better viewing angles. It's the right choice if your priority is a broad viewing angle and gaming, but it does not perform as well as the Samsung in a bright room or for watching movies. Give Feedback

Milton Clark | September 2023
"For an entry-level model, Sony’s X77L is a decent 4K TV. It’s color reproduction, along with crisp and clean picture images revealed plenty of detail and clarity thanks in part to Sony’s excellent video processing."
