Philips 65PML9506 (Left) vs Sony XR-65X95J (Right)
In this video you can see the superior black levels and shadow detail of X95J. The adv contrast enhancer on Sony does an impressive job in dark scenes. It's really puzzling that PML9506 with 1024 Mini LED's can't match X95J with its 70 LED's in dark scenes. On PML9506 dark scenes are not only dimmer with dimmer highlights but also have quite strong black crush and you can't fix this with any settings unless you completely wash out the picture.
Movie: Adam Project
Format: Dolby Vision Bright stream from Netflix
Note: PML9506 is a bit washed out on the left side while X95J is on the right one. Both have VA panels so filming at this distance was not enough to get rid of VA color and contrast shift.
