- Everything Looks Better
- This is picture quality so lifelike it's like looking through a window. Each scene in everything you watch-HD movies, sports, even YouTube clips and home movies-is presented with unprecedented detail, and astonishing color as Sony's exclusive X-Reality PRO picture engine draws on its database of real patterns, shapes and textures to display our most lifelike picture ever
- Clearest Picture Ever
- When you watch a kickoff at the stadium, the ball doesn't blur from left to right. Recreating natural motion with reduced judder and less blur, Motionflow XR 960 technology helps you see each end-over-end rotation by taking motion clarity beyond refresh rates, which are only measured in Hz, to quadruple the motion effect so you see everything as if you were there
- Tough, Yet Beautiful
- Corning's exclusive Gorilla Glass lets you enjoy an incredibly durable, remarkably lightweight, frameless design with a seamless, sophisticated look. Paired with the OptiContrast panel, Gorilla Glass helps boost contrast and brightness while minimizing unwanted light reflections
- Go Way Beyond Cable
- Welcome to the endless entertainment of the Sony Entertainment Network, where thousands of movies, TV shows, online videos, games and music are always at your fingertips. By connecting to the Internet you can access full HD 1080p entertainment, 3D content and made-for-TV apps like Netflix, Pandora, YouTube, Facebook and more
- Natural 3D Effects
- Feel like you're standing alongside your favorite actor as the environment envelops you with lush 3D detail. Ultra-realistic effects are achieved by X-Reality PRO 3D super resolution, optimizing each area of the 3D scene by drawing on its database of patterns, shapes and textures
- The Difference is Dynamic
- It's all about perfecting a natural look. Dynamic edge LED backlighting with local dimming delivers pitch-black night scenes and illuminates bright scenes that pop with vibrant color. Rather than illuminating the entire screen, contrast is boosted in just the right areas for a more realistic picture
- In-Your-Face Action
- Brace yourself for pure 3D excitement that feels like you're standing on the 50-yard line. Through advanced active 3D technology, immerse yourself in full HD 1080p clarity and phenomenal 3D picture quality. Just slide on the comfortable 3D active glasses and enter a whole new dimension
- Goodbye Wires, Hello Built-In Wi-Fi
- Maximize your entertainment while reducing cable clutter. Wirelessly stream beautiful, HD entertainment straight from the internet or your home network using built-in Wi-Fi connectivity
- All Devices, Together as One
- Don't all of your personal photos and videos deserve the big screen? Experience your content on a grand scale simply by connecting your compatible smartphone, computer or Sony Tablet S via your existing Wi-Fi network. Then you can easily throw your videos, photos and music files to your HDTV
- Control Your TV with Your Phone
- Now there's one less remote control on the coffee table. Just download the free Media Remote app and turn your iPhone, Android phone or Sony Tablet S into a versatile remote control with a full QWERTY keyboard. It makes changing channels and typing searches ultra fast and convenient
- Life-Sized Video Calls
- It's like they're in the room with you. Skype video calls bring your family and friends closer than ever as they appear as large as life on your big screen-for free. Just connect the easy-to-use Skype camera (sold separately) for a face-to-face look at the caller on the beauty of your Sony HDTV
- Wi-Fi without a Router
- Sometimes your friends want to share their personal photos and videos on your beautiful HDTV. With Sony's Wi-Fi direct mode, your friends can throw personal content to your TV without connecting to your home network. Wi-Fi direct completely bypasses the Wi-Fi access point / router, so it's easy to set up
- Save Power, Save Money
- Enjoy lower energy bills with reduced power consumption of up to 30% while maintaining beautiful image quality with eco drive technology. It automatically reduces power consumption while boosting color and detail on the screen and conserving energy used by the backlight
- Handheld Gaming Goes Big
- Play your PSP system or other handheld gaming consoles (with SD output) on your HDTV with no irritating black borders surrounding the picture. Just select game mode for an ideal fit to your TV screen according to the input. Better yet, super resolution processing delivers a clear, crisp view in HD size
- A Sense for Songs
- What's that song in the TV show, movie or commercial you're watching? Press TrackID on your remote and get the song name and artist instantly. You can also start the TrackID service by shaking a smartphone that's running the Media Remote app
- Find it Fast
- Searching for shows and music on your TV is so simple. Just press guide on your remote and see what's on and what's coming up with a handy image to go with it. You also get an episode synopsis, cast and crew details and suggestions to related shows, on-demand movies and Blu-ray disc titles
