Choosing 65" TV

I 'm choosing between LG SM8100 ($1089), Samsung RU8000 ($1089) and Sony 850G ($1269). Costco prices.
Anyone has any experience with these and what is your opinion? Thanks.

The 850G is an attractive option. Have you considered the TCL 6-Series 65" TV if that's still available?
I aim to be inclusive and considerate of others in my posts. If I fall short of that mark, feel free to let me know in good faith, and where appropriate, I'll edit my posts. Thank you.

Sadly I have only seen the R615 6 Series 2018 model on sale at Best Buy and some Costco stores, the newer R625 2019 model I have not seen in Canada yet, but has been available in the US since June.

Let me throw the Vizio P659-G1 in the mix. Pretty cheap TV with a really good image quality.
For me it was P659-G1 vs X900F vs OLED.

OLED loss really soon because NO the image quality is not worth 1500$ more. But yeah it's pretty dam good. I also fear burn-in and faster degradation of light intensity.
X900F and Vizio P659-G1 are pretty similar if you look at the rtings.com comparaison. Vizio win by an unsificant margin IMO.
I went for Vizio since it's was way cheaper then X900F I was just affraid of the Vizio brand and build quality. But I had no problem with it since August when I bought it.
Bought it at costco I was able to price adjust in september and final price was about 1000$.
TCL6 series was not available in 65" when I bought my TV but that would have been an other option to consider.
