Sony launches Bravia XR 8K LED, 4K OLED and 4K LED TVs with new “cognitive processor”

Sony has introduced new models, including the Z9J 8K LED, A90J 4K OLED, A80J 4K OLED, X95J 4K LED and X90J 4K LED, to its Bravia series TVs that will be coming to Singapore soon.

All the above 2021 Bravia XR models come with Sony’s latest TV processor, the Cognitive Processor XR. This new processor is said to mimic how our brains process images. It uses advanced artificial intelligence to cross-analyse an array of picture elements, such as details, colour and contrast, and adjust each element in real time for the best result. This “cognitive processor” even analyse sound position to match the moving images on the screen.

In addition, all the new Bravia XR TVs feature Google TV platform allowing you to easily download apps, such as Netflix and Disney+, to watch the latest shows as well as offering hands-free voice control and support for Google Assistant-enabled devices.

Furthermore, these new TVs support HDMI 2.1 for 4K images at 120 frames per second, making them superb to use with the next-generation consoles like Sony PlayStation 5.
