If you're looking for a more affordable option and have a smaller space, the Samsung N5200 with its 40-inch screen could suit your needs, but keep in mind it has poor overall picture quality and is not well-suited for gaming, watching sports, or viewing in dark or bright rooms. On the other hand, the Sony X95K is a premium option with a 65-inch display that excels in very good picture quality, gaming, sports viewing, and performance in both dark and bright rooms. Although it comes at a higher price, the Sony X95K offers features like a higher refresh rate, better sound quality, and more connectivity options, making it a versatile choice for a top-tier viewing experience that accommodates various formats and a wider range of content.
