<\/p>\nSony has unveiled its 2022 OLED TV line-up with the A95K as the new flagship model with a QD-OLED panel.\u00a0The company is also launching its first 42-inch OLED TV, which will be part of the A90K series.\u00a0The X95K and Sony Z9K series with 8K display received Mini LED\u00a0backlighting\u00a0.<\/p>\n
And these are not all the differences that were revealed when comparing Sony 2022 TVs with 2021 TVs.\u00a0There are also a lot of new technologies that the company has equipped its TVs with.\u00a0We offer to consider the features of Sony TVs 2022 model year and their new labeling.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Sony has announced its first\u00a0QD-OLED TV\u00a0(A95K), which uses blue OLEDs in combination with quantum dots to create richer reds and greens.<\/p>\n
\u201cWith millions of individual self-illuminating pixels, the A95K delivers more colors than ever before.\u00a0As a result, the viewer gets a completely new viewing experience.\u00a0This innovation helps convey the true intent of the creator.\u201d\u00a0Such a statement was made by Sony.<\/p>\n
Sony’s 2022 flagship OLED TV series, the\u00a0A95K,\u00a0will be available in 55-inch and 65-inch sizes.\u00a0This series will have 4K resolution and “Sony XR Cognitive Processor”.\u00a0Owners of these TVs can place the tabletop stand either at the back (to hide the stand behind the TV) or at the front.<\/p>\n
With the introduction of the A95K, Sony is expanding its OLED panel line-up and no longer solely relying on LG Display, the main supplier of OLED panels.\u00a0The A90K series will use LG Display’s WOLED panel, which will be available in 42″ and 48″ sizes.<\/p>\n
This series will be a step down from last year’s\u00a0A90J\u00a0, which will continue into 2022.\u00a0The Sony A80K will replace the\u00a0A80J\u00a0as Sony’s more affordable OLED model.\u00a0The A80K will be available in 55, 65 and 77-inch screen sizes.\u00a0All three models will inherit 2021 features such as dual\u00a0HDMI 2.1 ports\u00a0with 4K@120, VRR, and new PlayStation 5 features.<\/p>\n

<\/h3>\nUnlike TCL, which was the first to introduce miniLED TVs in 2020, Sony made the move in 2022.\u00a0The mini-LED backlight is controlled by the “XR Backlight Master Drive” system.\u00a0Sony has stated that it has optimized this technology to reduce blooming while maintaining contrast and high peak brightness.<\/p>\n
It’s worth noting that some mini-LED LCD TVs still suffer from high glare.\u00a0This artifact is even more pronounced than in more traditional zone dimming LCD TVs.\u00a0Therefore, rigorous testing is necessary to determine exact performance.\u00a0Sony’s Z9K series 8K TVs will also feature Mini LED backlighting.<\/p>\n
The popular Sony X90K series does not have a mini-LED backlight.\u00a0It will still ship with local dimming.\u00a0The X90K will also feature Sony’s “XR Cognitive Processor”, which was first introduced in 2021.\u00a0The X90K series will be available in 55, 65, 75 and 85 inches.<\/p>\n
In terms of peak brightness, the Z9K, X95K and X90K series have XR Contrast Booster 20, 15 and 10 respectively.\u00a0Sony does not provide actual numbers, but the number indicates that it is a multiple of conventional LCD TVs.\u00a0Therefore, you should expect the Z9K to reach 2000 to 4000 nits.\u00a0According to Sony, the X90K will have higher peak brightness than last year\u00a0‘s X90J series\u00a0.<\/p>\n
Nearly all 2022 Sony TVs (X85K and up) will get HDMI 2.1 features.\u00a0These are 4K at 120Hz, VRR (Variable Refresh Rate), ALLM (Auto Switch to Game Mode), and eARC (Enhanced Audio Return Channel).\u00a0These models will also come with support for new\u00a0PS 5\u00a0features .<\/p>\n
Also, as in 2021, all Sony 2022 models are equipped with the Google TV operating system.\u00a0Services such as Netflix, Disney plus, HBO Max, Google Stadia will be installed right from the factory.\u00a0Sony functions will be highlighted in the main menu.<\/p>\n
All TVs from the X80K and up feature an advanced adaptive calibration mode for Netflix.\u00a0This mode can automatically adjust the brightness level according to the ambient light.\u00a0TV series such as Z9K, X95K and X90K are equipped with a new remote control.\u00a0It does not have 49 buttons, as in the 2021 remote, but 25. Accordingly, this remote is smaller in size.<\/p>\n
Bravia Core is a pre-loaded movie service that includes redeemable movies.\u00a0When purchasing a Bravia XR TV, the user is entitled to use this service with unlimited streaming free of charge for 24 months.<\/p>\n With Pure Stream and IMAX Enhanced technologies, content on the Bravia Core delivers expressive sound quality and stunning visuals.\u00a0During 2022, Bravia Core will be available in more than 75 countries.\u00a0At least that’s what Sony said.<\/p>\n Sony’s top three LCD TVs have “Acoustic Multi-Audio”.\u00a0Sony placed four (Z9K) tweeters in the TV’s cabinet so that dialogue would come straight from the screen.\u00a0In the X95K, X90K series, there are not four, but two such tweeters.\u00a0Midrange and woofers are placed along the bottom of the case.\u00a0This is not the same as\u00a0Acoustic Surface Audio\u00a0in Sony OLED models.\u00a0OLED TV uses the OLED panel itself as speakers.<\/p>\n Like global TV leaders such as LG and Samsung, Sony Electronics has unveiled at CES 2022 not only the second-generation Bravia XR, but also its new Master Series based on hybrid QD-OLED technology.\u00a0In addition, Sony presented new technologies that the manufacturer is going to equip its TVs in 2022.\u00a0What’s new in Sony TVs?<\/p>\n Among the company’s technological achievements announced at the show are the first TV models with hybrid\u00a0QD-OLED\u00a0panels , as well as Sony’s first backlit LCD TVs that use\u00a0Mini-LED\u00a0technology .\u00a0This backlight provides brighter illumination and accurate colors.<\/p>\n In addition, Sony continues to offer product lines based on 4K OLED and LCD displays.\u00a0This includes OLED models using more traditional WOLED panels, as well as a range of LED TVs that are significantly cheaper.<\/p>\n In all of its expensive series, Sony is once again using its XR cognitive processor, first introduced in 2021.\u00a0Image processing with such a processor is based on the human visual system.\u00a0As a result, the viewer after viewing receives more feelings and emotions from what he sees.\u00a0The processor supports specially crafted Bravia Core streaming content from Sony’s new premium streaming service.<\/p>\n The patented XR Backlight Master Drive technology precisely controls the Mini-LED backlight with thousands of mini-LEDs.\u00a0In 2022, two TVs from Sony will receive this technology.\u00a0This TV Sony Master Series Z9K which has a resolution of 8K, as well as a series of Mini-LED TVs X95K from the category of 4K.<\/p>\n New 4K QD-OLED models will appear in the\u00a0Sony A95K\u00a0series .\u00a0This new panel technology is based on a hybrid implementation combining color enhancement and brightness enhancement from quantum dot red and green converters in tandem with an OLED panel with self-emitting blue LEDs.\u00a0The self-emitting OLED panel technology also provides very wide viewing angles with high contrast, brightness and color reproduction.<\/p>\n Sony has stated that the XR cognitive processor will improve the image performance of the A95K through XR Triluminos Max color processing.\u00a0The company claims that this will provide “naturally beautiful colors and hues” as well as “the widest color gamut”.\u00a0This technology uses millions of individual self-luminous pixels to create bright, direct light and color volume.<\/p>\n In terms of sound, Sony will continue to use the enhanced\u00a0Acoustic Surface Audio\u00a0+ technology for OLED models and Acoustic Multi-Audio for LCD models in this area.\u00a0These technologies are designed to match the position of the sound to the image on the screen.<\/p>\n As a result, sounds and dialogue will appear to follow people and objects as they move through the frame.\u00a0The lineup also includes new features that aim to improve streaming services.<\/p>\n Among the first implementations of the adaptive and calibrated mode was Netflix.\u00a0The TV automatically adjusts its image processing based on the ambient light.\u00a0Therefore, now the favorite shows and films of users will look the way the creator intended them.<\/p>\n In addition, Sony’s new Bravia Core\/Netflix adaptive calibrated mode automatically adjusts the quality of the on-screen image to better match the director’s original intent.\u00a0Bravia Core is Sony’s content streaming service for higher quality images and sound.<\/p>\n It is based on the TV’s built-in Cognitive XR Processing technology and improved image and sound processing IMAX Enhanced.\u00a0This feature provides access to a range of new and classic movies.\u00a0It also includes the largest collection of IMAX Enhanced movies and lossless UHD content from Pure Stream.\u00a0However, only some 2022 Sony TVs will have this technology.<\/p>\n In addition, all 2022 Bravia XR TVs will be “perfect for the PlayStation 5.”\u00a0This ensures that when pairing a Bravia XR TV with a\u00a0PlayStation 5\u00a0console, the user gets the best gaming experience by automatically adjusting and optimizing the picture to the best settings.\u00a0Support for HDMI 4K\/120 fps further ensures smooth and crisp motion for fast responsive gaming experience.<\/p>\n Sony is also bringing support for new PS5-exclusive features, including Auto HDR Tone Mapping and Auto Genre Picture Mode, which are designed to automatically adjust key picture settings to match the type of content on screen.\u00a0The Auto HDR Tone Mapping feature will boost color and brightness levels for HDR content to match the highest display capabilities.<\/p>\n This will only become available with future firmware updates for both PlayStation 5 consoles and supported TVs.\u00a0Updates can be installed automatically or with a custom option.\u00a0According to Sony, to enable Auto Tone Mapping, the feature must be enabled the first time you pair your TV and PS5.<\/p>\n Otherwise, users will need to turn off the TV and PS5, perform a factory reset, and then enable this feature during the initial setup.\u00a0HDR Auto Tone Mapping will only be supported when PS5 and TV are directly connected.\u00a0Suitable models include all models from the Bravia XR as well as X85K, X85J, X80K,\u00a0X80J\u00a0,\u00a0X90H\u00a0.<\/p>\n Auto Genre Picture Mode will also become active through firmware updates on PlayStation 5 consoles and TVs.\u00a0Installation will occur either automatically or manually, depending on whether the user has enabled the automatic firmware update option on the device.\u00a0This feature only works when PS5 and TV are directly connected.\u00a0Suitable models include all the same Bravia XR models as well as X85K, X85J, X80K, X80J, X90H series models.<\/p>\n Also in 2022, Sony will introduce a newly developed original device called the Bravia Cam to select TV models.\u00a0The built-in camera is designed to capture and recognize where users sit near the screen.\u00a0This is to optimize the picture and sound settings for the best picture experience.<\/p>\n The branded camera is also designed to receive gesture control commands, assist viewers in video chats, and other new features.\u00a0In addition to the video chat feature, most of the Bravia Cam’s new features will be available via a future firmware update, according to Sony.<\/p>\n In addition, in 2022, Sony stated that all of its products were developed in accordance with a global environmental plan, which Sony calls “Road to Zero”.\u00a0This global environmental plan aims to achieve zero environmental impact by 2050.<\/p>\n
