Full HD 1080p Resolution
With full 1080p High Definition (HD) resolution, the effective number of scanning lines is more than twice that of conventional standard definition (SD). The result? You'll enjoy video data quality that's about 4.5 times greater than SD.

Bravia Engine 3
The revolutionary Bravia Engine 3 uses a new high definition video processor that reproduces images with impressive depth, vibrant colors with true-to-life tones, and high-definition images with exceptional clarity. You'll enjoy clear and vibrant images in finer detail from both SD and HD sources.

Live Color
Live Color can reproduce colors more vividly with an image processor that uses an algorithm specially developed by Sony. With four different options available, you can even adjust color vividness for optimal image quality. With Live Color, you'll be able to experience the power of vivid colors and impressive pictures with more precise color tuning.

Intelligent Picture
The Bravia Series is equipped with Intelligent Picture that automatically boosts weak analog broadcast signals (RF) and reduces signal noise to produce vibrant and noise-free pictures.

MPEG Noise Reduction
MPEG Noise Reduction automatically reduces block noise and improves the edges of characters, while at the same time successfully suppressing noise that usually appears at high contrast edges. Through this process, you'll enjoy crisp, noise-free images with sharp edges.

Bravia Sync
Bravia Sync allows for intuitive one-push control to synchronize all the other entertainment devices in your home theater system. By connecting your Handycam camcorder directly to a Bravia HDTV that is compatible with Bravia Sync and connected via an HDMI cable, the Handycam playback screen will be automatically displayed. The Bravia remote control can then be used to control your home theater system and the Handycam.

Voice Zoom
With the innovative Voice Zoom feature, you can control the center channel individually from the other speakers in your sound system. This allows you to raise or lower the voices and dialog in any program to your personal preference. This feature will enable you to hear sports announcers or news anchors more clearly.

Xross MediaBar (XMB)
The XrossMediaBar is a menu of Bravia features and input sources displayed on the TV screen. The XMB is an easy way to select programs and adjust settings on your Bravia TV.
