What is the best wall mount for a Sony TV?

Question

So I was looking at the Sanus mounts and also checked out the official Sony ones online, but honestly Im super stressed about picking the wrong thing because my new 65 inch OLED is crazy heavy and expensive. My logic was just buy whatever has the most reviews, but some people say tilt is better than full motion for OLED panels... Im moving into my new place in Chicago next Tuesday and my budget is like 150 bucks max, so which one should I actually get?

Had a moment to think about this more and honestly, full motion mounts on big heavy OLEDs can be super sketchy if you dont get the arm extension specs right. Spec wise, the Sanus Advanced Full Motion VLMF13 is usually hyped up, but ive had issues with arm sag over time on heavier 65 inch panels. Plus torque strain on drywall in older Chicago apartments is no joke. Here is a better breakdown for your budget:Mounting Dream MD2379Solid heavy duty steel build, holds up to 99 lbs, max VESA 600x400. Pros: super rigid, great VESA compatibility. Cons: a bit stiff when pulling out.Kanto F380Low profile, smooth articulation. Pros: sits only 2 inches from the wall, very precise leveling. Cons: pricey, might push your max budget. Stick to something with a high weight capacity safety margin so you can sleep at night. Good luck with the move next Tuesday!

Mounting an expensive OLED is super nerve-wracking ngl. For a 65 inch, I would suggest looking at the Sanus Advanced Tilt BLT2 since it keeps the heavy panel closer to the wall while still giving you tilt access. It usually runs right around 100 bucks too so youre well under budget. Just make sure you hit those studs properly in your new place.
