The processor with the same function as used to drive our 8K3 TV can accurately analyze the image data, showing the strong contrast of OLED with pure black, peak brightness, and real lifelike images.

Sound and pictures life in the harmony-the screen is the speaker

By letting the screen act as a speaker, the sound and pictures can be perfectly combined with the sound from the correct position on the screen, resulting in a better movie experience.

Single board design concept, ultra-thin

Using our ultra-thin single-panel design, the screen meets the edge of the TV, allowing you to be immersed in the picture without being distracted.

Enhance color and contrast to provide extra depth and realism

Sony's OLED with Pixel Contrast Booster

View real-world colors and discover details in deep shadows and bright highlights. With Pixel Contrast Booster, shadings and differentiation can be upgraded in splendid regions, so you can appreciate scenes brimming with sensible shadows and tones, further and better surfaces, and pure black contrast that only OLED can present.

Make colors and contrast more realistic

(Object-based HDR remake)

Using object-based HDR re-production, you can analyze the color of each object on the screen and adjust the contrast, which is different from most TVs that only adjust along a black and white contrast curve. Since the object is repaired separately, this TV can reproduce greater depth, texture, and more realistic images.

The highest resolution, no matter what you are watching

Using Sony's unique features, any type of content can be up-converted to realistic 4K resolution. Our picture processor X1™ Ultimate (double the speed of X1™ Extreme) can precisely examine and handle the information to enhance 4K5 pictures with genuine subtleties and surfaces. Using a unique 4K database, even 4K X-Reality™ PRO6 can magnify images taken in 2K and Full HD to close to 4K. At that point, the goal of each subject is upgraded through the item based super-goal to recreate the augmented simulation surface.

Reproduce a wider and more accurate color range

By broadening the color spectrum, TRILUMINOS powered by our X1 processor can reproduce more colors than traditional TV sets. It analyzes and processes the data in each image to make the colors more natural and accurate, thus making the pictures more realistic than ever.

Make fast-moving scenes bright and clear

With pictures created by millions of individually controlled pixels, everything on the OLED is clear and clear. With our X-Motion Clarity™ technology, even fast movements can remain smooth and clear. Precisely control the moving image to minimize blur, so that the image remains real in high-speed scenes with less brightness loss.

Appreciate beautiful colors from any angle

Now watching TV from the side is as satisfying as watching TV from the center. No matter where you are watching, our self-luminous OLED panels can maintain color consistency and authenticity.

Sound and pictures life in the harmony-the screen is the speaker

By letting the screen act as a speaker, the sound and pictures can be perfectly combined with the sound from the correct position on the screen, resulting in a better movie experience.

The sound on the screen, incredibly immersive

Traditional TV sound with speakers under the screen is usually out of sync with the picture. With our Acoustic Surface Audio, the screen is the speaker. The innovative actuator behind the screen vibrates discreetly to produce sound, so the sound you hear comes from character dialogue and car engine noise in the scene where the action is taking place.

Dolby Atmos® makes sound flow around you

Surrounded by sound as if you are in the scene. With Dolby Atmos, the sound can be emitted from above or from the side, so you can hear the sensation of objects moving above your head more realistically, thus obtaining a truly multi-dimensional experience. 78

Enjoy multi-dimensional sound with S-Force front surround sound

It's like hearing sound from separate multiple surround speakers. By up-converting the input, S-Force Front Surround can actually reproduce the multi-surround speaker system in the TV, so you can enjoy more realistic sound effects.

Hear clearly

Using "Voice Zoom", you can hear the human voice clearly without turning up the volume, which is ideal for news briefings and documentaries.

No matter what the environment, you can get unparalleled picture and sound

Sit back and enjoy the best viewing experience. Sony's unique environment optimization technology can automatically adjust the image and sound according to your environment.

Add luster to your room

On a conventional TV, the brightness remains the same regardless of the light in the room, resulting in images that are too dark or too bright. This 4K OLED TV includes an embedded light sensor that optimizes the image brightness according to room conditions, increasing the brightness in a bright room, and reducing the brightness in a dark room, so you can get a perfect view.

Sound suitable for your environment

The sound experience will vary according to your room environment. For example, curtains will absorb sound, and objects in front of the TV will interfere with the propagation of the sound, thereby compromising the quality of the sound you hear. This 4K5 Ultra HD TV can detect objects and reproduce sound that is enhanced and optimized to your room.
