The Frame has HDMI 2.1 capabilities + One Connect Box (Next Gen consoles likely wont produce 4k@120 hz which is the main reason gamers go for HDMI 2.1)
but Q70R has overall better picture quality with FALD
In my opinion, Q70R is a better purchase if budget allows

Here in Trivandrum a renowned dealer has quoted 55q70r @82k and 55q80r @ 102k on their website as part of seasonal sale.

Great deals given the current options in the market
Which dealer? Please let me know the details
This is one of the most honest reviews of Q70R. Have a look; I hope this will help you to make a decision.

Don't bash me for it, but I took a side by side demo of Q80R and 950G, found Q80R to be better. It came as a surprise to me as I always felt 950G is a class apart.

Q80R is indeed a very good option. I could have gotten it and saved some money of only it supported Dolby Vision. So had to go with C9
But 65" Q80R is as expensive as C9

This is quite possible since Q80R is also much more expensive than X950G in India. Q80R sits between X950G & Q90R from what I have seen

Naturally, since q80r have better contrast ratio, less blooming, better FALD, wider viewing angle, and superb anti-reflective screen.
Although sony may have better color and motion handling.
Yes, in Bangalore, Q80R and C9 are almost most same, probably a thousand rupees here and there. Last December Croma, quoted my 1.35L for 55" C9 and 1.37L for Q80R. Q80R was coming with a Soundbar whereas C9 with a 32" TV.

I was getting it for a bit cheaper...

I had demoed next to C9 as well, C9 was better than 80R. So 80R priced higher than C9 doesn't sense.
80R priced around 950G will be a good play from Samsung.

Pricing of high end stuff from Sony and Samsung will never make sense here.
I was also quoted 1.52L for 65" Samsung Q70R and 1.55L for 65" Sony X9500G
Stock for Sony is very limited and I have to make a decision fast if I am planning to go Sony's way. Hopefully will be finalizing it in coming few days.
Any suggestions for the above 2?

Frame is one interesting and expectional piece. 50, 55, and 65 inc are priced better here than US, however, for 75in, they totally f**ked up. In US, it is 3k USD, here in India, 4.7L
I mean, in what earth, 65 in is 1.4L and 75 is 4.7L, almost 3.5 times?

I got 1.62 as lowest for 950g. From all the reviews, specs and happiness quotient of people, that is justifiable price. Have you seen both the TVs in person?
If not, do that and pick the TV which suits your and your family's eyes the most. I do feel that Samsung Q series are a very good TVs. I personally was not very exicted with 950G, even though I am a sort of a Sony fanboy!

You should target 1.3L or even lower for 65q70r.
1.4L is their corporate offer price.

Depends on your needs. If you are not going to watch the TV from an angle and most viewing will be directly head on, then Sony is better option plus it had Dolby Vision support.
However, if the room and sitting positions are spread out wide, then Q70R is the way to go.
