Some (dumb?) questions :

I will receive my x900h tomorrow and want to hook it my ps5.
1) We know that 4k120hz, Alllm and vv are not working now, so anyhdmi will be fine ?
2) Is there a game mode that I must activate everytime or it's something that is done one time only for the specific hdmi in which my ps5 will be plugged ?
3) I plan to use my ps5 for netflix, will game mode change something about movies and series ?
4) I also have a 4k xbox one, since it will not do 4k 120 hz, can I use hdmi 1 or 2 and have 4k and 60hz ?
5) My audio receiver (with 2 bookshelf speaker and a central) only have one Optical input. Should I plug the Tv or the ps5 in it ?

Thanks !

1) I think 4k120 is operating now, but not VRR, so still stick with HDMI 3 or 4
2) Yes, there is, and I believe it gets set up to default for the specific input as part of the TV setup.

4) People are reporting 4k120 on Xbox so use HDMI 3 or 4. You will potentially have to switch a setting to change the HDMI input from "Standard" to "Enhanced"
5) I would think TV, then both gaming systems into TV as well.

I was supposed to get my x900h today....Now looking at the tracking website I seen that my delivery is Cancelled...I've got no phone call or e-mail to inform me. I.ve called the delivery company ( dont know the name) , and they told me that the order was ''cancelled by the store (Costco) despite they have received the tv at the warehouse''

Anyone have been in that boat before ?

I remember the reviews on Costco used to be in the teens...now there are well over 700.
When it does come in stock, what's the price? Currently, I see it at $1698 OOS.

It was $1398, but that deal ended on the 3rd. Maybe it'll got back to that price after the $1698 'deal' ends on the 23rd.

Has anyone updated the firmware recently? I remember when I bought the TV everyone was saying to turn off the auto-update because there were issues in one of the updates. What about now?
13:6W-365. 14:11W-2134. 15:10W-1749. 16:4W-8120. 17:11W-2797. 18:8W-210. 19:7W-466. 20:20W-9316. 21:46W-4574. 22:48W-3948

I decided to return mine as I have realized that most of the shows I watch are not in 4k so the difference in quality from my present tv isnt huge. Mine is 75" so if anyone cant get one in stock and wants it right away I can let it go at cost. Otherwise Ill just be returning it within a week. I got it from costco by the way, with a warranty covering up to the 5 year mark.

Yes, with Costco they will price match within 30 days. If it changes 30-90 days they usually get you to return and repurchase, but some CSRs have been said to do it without the repurchase.

Also waiting for the price to drop... thinking of maybe doing what DefconZero recommended.

Thanks, can I ask how you installed them? I've got one coming in a week, can you just use the built-in store or do you have to side-load them somehow? Thanks again!

You can't use the store, you need to side load it by downloading the apk and then installing it. You can do all of this without using a laptop.
Download the app "Downloader" on the tv. This one is on the app store.

in the built in android system of the tv, you need to allow "unknown sources" so you can install apks.

on the downloader app, you type in the url of the apk. then it will download it. Then just install it.
You can DM me when you have the tv then maybe I can help you if you run into a roadblock/issue.

Just curious has there finally been a permanent fix for the Wi-Fi disconnectivity issue?

not sure, i was encountering the same issue, so i just wired connection it.
Not sure if a recent firmware update fixed it or not.
