In addition to the usual 2-point controls, a new 10p white balance system is now available in the > submenu under the guise of. This year, the Japanese brand finally relented and addressed the former. Gamma and pseudo-local dimming functions can also be found here.įor ages, we’ve lamented the absence of 10-point greyscale controls and an advanced colour management system (CMS) on Sony Bravias. Under the “Brightness” category, we really like how Sony has adopted the correct nomenclature to describe the picture-affecting controls, such as instead of, and instead of.
There are other revamps in the picture submenu which is further categorised into four sections of “Brightness”, “Colour”, “Clarity” and “Motion”.

SONY TV FIRMWARE UPDATE USB KDL 37M4000 ANDROID

While the Bravia X9305C represents as radical a departure as you can get from the masses of thin-bezel slim TVs permeating the market, there’s no denying it’s a beautiful and distinctive set. The Sony KD55X9305 carries over many stylistic elements from last year’s X9005B – the wedge design, the mirrored chrome side panels, the prominent Magnetic Fluid speakers flanking the screen, and the pair of supporting metal feet (that can be fitted inwards for placement on a narrower AV rack) – though the company is quick to reassure us that the volumetric dimensions have been trimmed on the 2015 model. The X93 comes in two screen sizes, namely the 55-inch KD-55X9305C and the 65-inch KD-65X9305C. Positioned one rung below the range-topping X94C series, the Sony X93C sitting pretty in our test room today is essentially a direct successor to 2014’s critically-acclaimed X9005B, boasting several upgrades such as the firm’s new X1 video processing engine, high-resolution audio playback and the aforementioned Android TV system, as well as forthcoming features like high dynamic range (HDR) support and YouView catch-up TV service.
Sony was first out of the gates with its television models last year, but the Japanese manufacturer’s new Bravia ranges have only just become available to buy in the UK and Europe this month, probably due to delays encountered during the integration of Google’s Android TV platform into its 2015 lineup.
