Sony 55" XBR 3D 1080p LED Internet HDTV - XBR55HX950
The Sony XBR-55HX950 3D LED TV is the result when one of the leaders in television technology goes all out to dream up an LED TV with the greatest picture they've ever created. Sony pulled no punches in designing this TV, giving it not only reference-grade image quality, but also a wealth of connectivity features and an elegant, durable design.
At the heart of the Sony XBR-55HX950 LED TV are a variety of Sony innovations that work in conjunction to create quality never before seen in a 1080p LED TV. Leading the charge is the X-Reality PRO Picture Engine, which is responsible for rendering the image displayed on the TV. X-Reality PRO is Sony's premiere image-processing technology, which uses an intelligent technique to increase the detail of any video source, from Full HD 1080p to low-quality internet videos. That high-performance display is backed by full-array local dimming LED technology, which creates a vast improvement in brightness control compared to traditional, edge-lit LED TVs. As a result, you'll experience a picture with bright highlights, and deep dark blacks. Motionflow XR 960 keeps action blur-free, eliminating the ghosting often seen during fast-moving sports. And with Sony's Active 3D technology, you'll be blown away by Full 1080p 3D, in an experience that rivals the kind normally available only at the theaters.
Sony didn't settle for just producing ultimate picture quality, they also packed the XBR-55HX950 with the latest features that make it more than just a TV. Built-in Wi-Fi bring a whole new level of functionality to your TV. Easily stream movies or photos from other locations on your home network, or log onto the Sony Entertainment Network, where you can find thousands of TV shows, movies and more online. You'll also find apps adapted just for your Sony TV, like Netflix, Pandora and Facebook. Best friends stopped by and want to show off some photos from a recent vacation? Sony's Wi-Fi Direct Mode lets them stream content right to your XBR TV without having to connect to your home network. And we all know how often TV remotes disappear, but the Sony alleviates that worry with a free downloadable app that turns your iOS or Android phone or tablet into a fully functional remote, complete with QWERTY keyboard.
The Sony XBR-55-HX950 3D LED TV takes professional-level image quality and the most advanced additional features available, and wraps them in a robust, elegant package. While the frameless, monolithic design might seem to be mostly an aesthetic improvement, it's also a functional one. A seamless, full-screen 55-inch Gorilla Glass display helps reduce reflection, boost contrast, and protect your LED TV from the occasional flying remote or video-game controller.
