The new BRAVIA models boast greatly improved picture quality with high brightness, color, and detailed shadows, along with enriched sound direct from screen to faithfully display cinema creators’ intent
Sony is redefining the home movie experience with the latest BRAVIA TVs, led by the flagship BRAVIA 8 OLED. The new models enhance cinematic depth like never before by delivering unmatched picture and sound quality. Now, viewers can immerse in the same magic as watching on the big screen.
The matching features and design of BRAVIA TVs and BRAVIA Theatre home audio products make it easier for consumers to set up a complete home entertainment package. By unifying TVs, soundbars, and other home media technologies under one powerhouse brand, Sony aims to further solidify its standing as a one-stop destination for enjoying the ultimate media entertainment experiences.
“Building on the decades of operating at the heart of the professional film production equipment development as well as film production and distribution, Sony is in a unique position that allows it to utilize its unparalleled film industry, professional equipment, and consumer electronics experience with its pioneering BRAVIA TVs and BRAVIA Theatre home audio devices”, said Kentaro Imamura, Marketing Director of Home and Personal Entertainment Marketing Division, Sony Philippines. “We’re excited to launch the new BRAVIA TV and BRAVIA Theatre home audio products that usher in new exciting features, elevating the way you can watch films at home to new heights”, added Kentaro.
Watch films at home the way the creator intended
BRAVIA TVs intelligently optimize color, contrast, and brightness for a home viewing environment that is brighter than a cinema. This is to ensure that the at-home watching experience is faithful to how the creator envisioned their picture to look. One of the elements that allows to achieve it is the high peak brightness of the BRAVIA 7 Mini LED model paired with precise backlight control. The picture becomes authentic with the right parts of the screen appropriately lit, letting the viewer discover even the smallest details the filmmaker put in the scene, especially in the Studio Calibrated modes developed in collaboration with the leading streaming services.
Provides optimal picture quality to enjoy movies at home
● XR Processor*
Sony’s XR Processor features a scene recognition system that detects and analyses data with high accuracy, and then optimises the picture for ultimate realism to reproduce a cinema creator’s intention.
● XR Backlight Master Drive**
Like the backlight control technology in Sony’s professional monitors used by filmmakers, XR Backlight Master Drive with a unique local dimming algorithm precisely controls thousands of LEDs for truly authentic contrast to preserve shadow detail in the most demanding scenes.
Provides optimal sound quality to enjoy movies at home
● Voice Zoom 3 ***
Sony’s new Voice Zoom 3 recognises human dialogue through AI algorithms and amplifies or reduces its volume so even small dialogue sounds loud and clear. It works great with the BRAVIA Theatre home audio products.**
** Available in BRAVIA 7.
** Available via a future firmware update.
● Acoustic Center Sync
Acoustic Center Sync integrates your sound system such as a soundbar with the TV so that the sound precisely matches the action on the screen, bringing a cinema-like setup home. In cinemas, a speaker is placed directly behind the screen, which has numerous small holes, and the sound emitted from it is passed forward so that the dialogue and sounds overlap with the image projected onto the screen and are heard from the correct position. When you combine BRAVIA TVs3 and BRAVIA Theatre products***, the Acoustic Center Sync function fuses the sound of the TV's speakers and the soundbar seamlessly, creating a cinema-like experience where the sound appears to come directly from the TV screen.
Settings for Voice Zoom 3, Acoustic Center Sync, BRAVIA Theatre audio products connected to BRAVIA, and other TV features can now be operated using the BRAVIA Connect App (formerly Home Entertainment Connect App) without displaying the menu bar on the TV screen while watching a movie.
A wealth of modes to precisely reproduce the image quality intended by the creator at home
BRAVIA is equipped with Studio Calibrated modes that reproduce the image quality intended by film content creators in a home setting. In addition to the existing established Netflix Adaptive Calibrated Mode and SONY PICTURES CORE (formerly BRAVIA CORE) Calibrated Mode, Prime Video Calibrated Mode is a new mode designed to provide customers with even more ways to experience premium entertainment through the lens of the creator. With Prime Video Calibrated Mode, customers can enjoy optimum picture quality that is automatically calibrated across movies, series, and for the first time, live sports.

Environmental initiatives
Sony has set forth an environmental plan called Road to Zero, which aims to achieve zero environmental impact through its business activities and product life cycles by 2050. To contribute to this vision, BRAVIA will pursue innovations that provide the best viewing experience with high picture and sound quality and a premium design all the while contributing to reducing environmental impact inter alia as described below.
Reduced power consumption:
BRAVIA 7 uses Sony's proprietary signal processing to maximise the characteristics of the panel device (Mini LED), automatically optimising brightness for each scene while achieving both high brightness and low power consumption. In addition, the Eco Dashboard, which allows you to easily set and manage various energy saving settings of BRAVIA all at once, has been further evolved. You can also check the amount of power used and tips for saving energy*.
Reducing virgin plastic usage in products:
To reduce environmental impact, Sony is working on multiple aspects of the product life cycle, such as reduction of virgin plastic use, improvement of transportation efficiency, and reviewing energy consumption during use.
From material development to exterior design, BRAVIA has succeeded in significantly increasing the use of recycled materials while maintaining a high-quality finish. SORPLAS(TM)*, a recycled plastic developed by Sony, is used for the back cover13, which has the largest surface area on a TV, with approximately 65%14 of the total plastic used being recycled material. The compact, rechargeable Eco Remote is also made from approximately 79.7% recycled plastic15.
* SORPLAS: Sustainable Oriented Recycled Plastic.
* In BRAVIA 8. SORPLASTM may not be used for parts depending on the time of production. 14 Depending on model and size.
* May not be used for parts depending on the time of production.
Commitment to accessibility
Sony aims to contribute to an inclusive society through its business, increasing accessibility to enable those with diverse needs to utilise its products. BRAVIA develops products with accessibility in mind so that all customers can enjoy the movie experience, regardless of disability or age.
Vision and action assist:
The Talkback screen reader function allows you to check program listings and set up your TV without looking at the screen. It also can enlarge text and display it on the screen. Additionally, the tactile dots on the HDMI and S-Center terminals of BRAVIA TV match those found on the BRAVIA Theatre products to simplify the process of locating and connecting ports for a smooth setup experience.
Color inversion makes it possible to invert the brightness of color so that bright areas become dark, and dark areas become bright. This feature can be turned on or off as needed. If the text is easier to read with a dark or bright background color, you can use color inversion to change the background color.
Voice commands can be used to operate the BRAVIA TV, such as turning the power on/off and adjusting the volume. BRAVIA TVs are also equipped with shortcut commands that allow you to turn on/off accessibility features quickly and easily. This allows both those who require them and those who do not use the same TV set without stress.
