based doon sa post, konti lang difference ng 65-inch X9000E sa X8500E ... get the 65-inch X9000E ... mas maganda yung malaki ... I personally have a 55-inch tv, but after staying on a hotel with 65-inch tv last week and watching the NBA games, parang gusto ko palitan yung tv ko ng 65-inch, laki pala ng difference ... as for the X9000 and X8500, at less than 5k difference for the same size, go with the X9000 para wala ng doubts if you got the optimal quality for the budget
