Extended colour volume, now see every shade and hue

Over a billion colours reproduced with the subtle differences seen in the real world. Powered by our Cognitive Processor XR™, XR Triluminos Pro™ with a wide colour spectrum delivers natural shades in every detail.

More vivid colours and realistic than conventional TV

Everything upscaled close to 4K quality Whatever the content or source, images are upscaled close to 4K. XR 4K Upscaling accesses a vast database to intelligently recreate lost texture and detail.

Less noise. Less blur. More clarity in every picture.

XR Clear Image reduces noise utlilising zone division and dynamic frame analysis, and minimises blur.

Noise is reduced, making broadcast and online videos much clearer and easier to view

Blur is minimised so action stays smooth

Intelligent motion processing for smooth, fast-moving action XR OLED Motion combats blur by detecting and cross analysing key visual elements on successive frames. It creates and inserts extra frames between the originals for smoother, clearer action.
Beautiful colours from any angle Watching TV from the sides is now as satisfying as from the centre. Our OLED panel keeps colours consistent and true, wherever you're watching.
Studio quality entertainment, just as the creator intended Featuring an array of Creator Calibrated Modes, IMAX Enhanced and Dolby Vision®, this TV preserves the director’s intent. And as it’s Calman Ready, creators can even professionally calibrate it for use in production edits.

Optimising pictures for all your favourites With BRAVIA CORE™ Calibrated Mode, all movies including IMAX Enhanced™ titles automatically adjust to the optimal picture settings for an outstanding home movie experience.
	Bravia Cam Every picture, optimised to your position in the room BRAVIA CAM™ detects the distance between you and your TV, then adjusts brightness for picture quality that's optimised to your position in the room.

Sound

Screen sound, ingeniously immersive

The screen vibrates, turning every part of it into a speaker for powerful acoustics that move with the picture.

Sound from the centre of the screen, perfectly matching action With Acoustic Surface Audio +™, sound comes directly from the right place in the scene. Far more immersive than conventional TVs where sound comes from beneath the screen.
All your entertainment upscaled to 3D surround sound XR Surround virtually creates surround sound using just the TV speakers for 3D audio without in-ceiling or up-firing speakers. Our BRAVIA XR™ TVs are also compatible with Dolby Atmos®.
Clear Voice. Precise dialogue. Voice Zoom 2™ detects voices, analyses them and improves their clarity. With enhanced filtering, ambient elements are suppressed so you can hear even faint TV dialogue clearly.

BRAVIA and Sony Audio, the dream team

Acoustic Center Sync With Acoustic Center Sync, you can turn both your compatible BRAVIA™ and the soundbar into a centre speaker. Precisely matching what you hear with what you see on your screen further immerses you in your home entertainment.
Ready for 360 Spatial Sound Personalizer Tailor your Dolby Atmos® experience by combining our SRS-NS7 wearable speaker with BRAVIA XR™ for spatial surround. With some Sony headphones, you can also get the simulated surround of 360 Spatial Sound.
