Everything else pales in contrast

True reality comes to life with deep black and natural colour. Over 8 million self-illuminating pixels are precisely and individually controlled by the X1 Extreme™ processor. Sony's OLED TV creates exquisite, unprecedented contrast.

Acoustic Surface™ Technology provides the greatest sound you've never seen

Unlike with most TV speakers, sound comes to you from the entire screen, immersing you in exciting new entertainment experiences. Two actuators behind the TV vibrate the screen to create sound that's truly engaging. It's pictures and sound in perfect harmony.

Reality as it was meant to be experienced with the 4K HDR Processor X1™ Extreme

Made to enhance the latest generation of 4K HDR pictures, the 4K HDR Processor X1™ Extreme brings reality to every scene. With 40% more real-time image processing than Sony's renowned 4K Processor X1™, it delivers unprecedented picture quality for everything you watch, upscaling content from any source nearer to 4K HDR quality.

Uncover the detail with 4K HDR

A High Dynamic Range (HDR) compatible TV will change the way you look at TV. Combined with 4K Ultra HD resolution, HDR video content delivers exceptional detail, colour and contrast, with a far wider range of brightness than other video formats. The result is the most lifelike picture TVs have ever been able to create, with brilliant highlights and fine detail.

Life's brilliance, revealed with extra colours with the TRILUMINOS™ Display

More colours means more realism. See vivid, real-world colours all around you. A TRILUMINOS™ Display selectively maps colours across a wider gamut, ensuring subtle colours appear naturally on screen and do not become oversaturated. You'll enjoy vivid, authentic images that bring out the emotion in every scene.

Rediscover every detail with 4K X-Reality PRO

Discover a thrilling world of extraordinary clarity. Every single pixel is enhanced beautifully by Sony's most powerful 4K picture processing technology yet. Individual parts of each scene are analyzed and matched with a special image database that independently addresses texture, contrast, colour and edges. The difference is clear with supremely lifelike detail, whatever you're watching.

360 degrees of sophistication

This OLED TV is more than just beautiful. It's designed so that the stand and speakers virtually disappear—appearing as if it's floating—leaving only the brilliance of its picture. (Actual look may differ depending on the type of cable and TV screen size.)

Sony's Android 4K TVs are recommended by Netflix

Motionflow™ XR keeps the action smooth

Enjoy smooth and sharp details even in fast-moving sequences with Motionflow™ XR. This innovative technology creates and inserts extra frames between the original ones. It compares key visual factors on successive frames, then calculates the split second of missing action in the sequences.

Object-based HDR remaster

By analyzing the objects in each scene individually, Object-based HDR remaster optimizes and enhances colour and contrast. It brings everything you watch closer to the quality of HDR. Dark elements get darker, bright elements brighter and everything in between is more accurately lit, for never-before-possible realism in every scene.

Super Bit Mapping™ 4K HDR

Super Bit Mapping 4K HDR creates a smoother, more natural picture by minimizing its colour banding. With 14-bit powerful signal processing, it breaks up the solid bands of colour of an 8-bit or 10-bit source, up-converting to 14-bit equivalent gradation, with 64 times more colour levels. It delivers graceful reproduction of faces, sunsets and other areas of subtle colour gradation.

Dual database processing

The 4K HDR Processor X1™ Extreme has two imaging databases that work together in real time to improve your picture. By searching through thousands of picture patterns in Sony-exclusive databases for noise reduction and super-resolution, they remove unwanted noise and upscale every image to the clarity of 4K, so you can enjoy incredible picture quality no matter the source.

Content Bar: find everything fast

The unobtrusive content bar quickly lets you find the movie, TV show or video you're looking for. Call up the Content bar and you can keep watching, while you scan through live TV, videos on demand, downloaded TV shows and much more. You can even customize the content bar to show you the content you go to most often first.

Chromecast built-in: Plays nice with your other devices

BRAVIA® is Chromecast built-in ready so you can easily cast your favourite entertainment like YouTube™ or Netflix from your personal device on to the stunning BRAVIA® screen. You can cast from Android, iOS, or your laptop. (Chromecast built-in compatibility dependent on app.)

Made to listen: ClearAudio+

Make your listening as lifelike as your viewing. ClearAudio+ fine-tunes TV sound for an immersive experience that seems to surround you. Hear music, dialogue and surround effects with greater clarity and separation, whatever you're watching.

DSEE restores detail to your digital music

Low-resolution Internet video, catch-up TV and other heavily compressed audio files don’t always sound so great. A large amount of information gets thrown away when digital audio is compressed. With Digital Sound Enhancement Engine (DSEE) technology, lost frequency components (especially high frequencies) are restored for natural sound with a more spacious feel.

Clear Phase for smooth, balanced frequencies

BRAVIA® uses a powerful computer model to analyse and compensate for inaccuracies in speaker response. It does this by 'sampling' the speaker frequency with higher precision. This information is fed back to cancel out any peaks or dips in the speaker's natural response—resulting in pure, natural audio with smooth, even reproduction of all frequencies.

Cinematic S-Force Front Surround

Enjoy an immersive soundstage that pulls you into the heart of the action. S-Force Front Surround mimics the way the brain correlates sound sources to create proper volume, time lag, and sound wave spectrum – using only left and right speaker channels. By naturally emulating three-dimensional sound fields, you’ll enjoy rich, high-fidelity audio across a wider listening area.
