Sony Electronics Introduces 2022 BRAVIA XR TV Lineup, New XR Backlight Master Drive Technology With Mini LED

Sony Electronics today announced the new BRAVIA XR television series, including the X95K 4K Mini LED models, MASTER Series A80K 4K OLED models, and X90K 4K LED model.

Powered by Cognitive Processor XR™, the XR Backlight Master Drive precisely controls our latest generation Mini LED backlight in the and X95K series for incredible brightness flexibility. Users will be able to enjoy unprecedented dynamic range with incredibly dazzling lights and deep blacks, as well as natural mid tones with almost no flare or halos around highlights.

Audio

When watching movies, there’s now an enhanced Acoustic Surface Audio+™ for OLED models and Acoustic
Multi-Audio™ for LED models, precisely matching the position of the sound with the images on the screen for a truly immersive audio/visual experience.

The lineup also includes new features that customise and enhance at-home entertainment. There’s also a new Netflix Adaptive calibrated Mode, which automatically adjusts image processing based on ambient light, so users’ favourite shows and films look like the creator intended, under any conditions.

BRAVIA CORE Calibrated Mode For Image Quality

This new CORE calibrated model automatically adjusts image quality on screen to better align with the video creator’s original vision (if the file is compatible).

Perfect For PlayStation 5 Features

All 2022 BRAVIA XR televisions will be designated ‘Perfect for PlayStation®5’ , which includes two PS5® exclusive features – Auto HDR Tone Mapping and Auto Genre Picture Mode.

Sustainable Materials

Sony is committed to sustainability from the development process all the way through to the viewing experience. This year, select models use Sony-developed SORPLAS™, a 99% recycled plastic material that has
reduced the amount of virgin plastic used by up to 60%.
