Enhanced picture quality meets smart connectivity


Decadent detail meets captivating clarity.: A quartz-cut design brings a new edge to TV with a hint of translucent colour that emphasizes the hidden gem within. Each scene in everything you watch – HD movies, 3D, sports, even YouTube™* clips – is presented with unprecedented detail and colour by Sony's exclusive X-Reality™ PRO picture engine. Experience lifelike motion delivered via Motionflow™ XR technology for that at-the-game feeling.*Note: availability depends on region..

Pro-grade picture detail: Introducing a picture so lifelike, it's like looking through a window. Sunsets appear with natural colour transitions and each scene in everything you watch shows crisp, clear detail. HD movies, sports, even YouTube clips and home movies burst off the screen with astonishing detail and colour. Sony's X-Reality PRO picture engine draws on its extensive reality database to display our most lifelike picture yet..

Moves like real life: Golf balls roll clearly, with less blurring, as the camera follows them across the green. Footballs retain their detail and move smoothly as the camera quickly pans down the field during kickoff. Even fast-moving action sequences like fight scenes appear amazingly realistic. Motionflow™ XR takes motion clarity beyond refresh rates to double the motion effect for lifelike clarity..

Sound that’s all around you: Whether you're watching movies, live concerts, drama or sports – turn up the intensity with bold, room-filling sound. Find yourself pulled into the heart of the action with a finely detailed virtual 5.1-channel soundstage backed by Sony's exclusive S-Force Front Surround technology. An enlarged 'sweet spot' lets everyone enjoy optimum sound wherever they're sitting, even if it's not directly in front of the TV. The surprising audio quality is something you might expect from an actual multi-channel surround sound system..

The difference is dynamic: It's all about perfecting a natural look. Dynamic Edge LED backlighting with frame dimming delivers pitch-black night scenes and illuminates bright scenes. Rather than illuminating the entire screen, contrast is boosted in just the right areas for a more realistic picture..

Your smartphone, now on TV: Mirror hilarious YouTube clips, blockbuster hits, the hottest apps and more from your smartphone onto the W802 Series big enough for everyone to enjoy. Wirelessly connect Miracast™ or NFC enabled smartphones with ease5 or try using an MHL cable — whatever's on your smartphone's screen will be resized and upscaled to appear with eye-pleasing clarity. And when you connect via MHL cable, not only can you control the interface with your TV remote, but your smartphone will keep charging the whole time..

Way beyond cable with built-in Wi-Fi: Wirelessly stream beautiful, HD entertainment straight from the Internet or your home network using built-in Wi-Fi® connectivity with ease. Open the door to the endless entertainment of the Sony Entertainment Network, where thousands of movies, TV shows, online videos, games and music are always on tap. By connecting to the Internet you can access Full HD 1080p entertainment, 3D content and made-for-TV apps like Netflix®, YouTube™, Facebook® and more. Note: depends on region..

Control your TV with your smartphone or tablet: Get more from watching television with TV SideView. Control the TV or browse the channel guide with your smartphone, Xperia™ Tablet or other tablet device (Android or iOS), all without interfering with what you're watching on the TV. Learn more about the show you're watching right now, like cast and episode details. Search what's available to watch on your TV, the web, YouTube® or on apps like Netflix® then select to view it on the TV big enough to share with the whole room. Go social and tweet about what you're watching from your mobile device or see what fellow fans are tweeting about in real time. *Note: availability depends on region..

Theatre-like 3D: Using the same passive 3D technology used in movie theaters, feel the explosive excitement of theater-like 3D. Even the sound profile is enhanced for 3D viewing to provide a more immersive experience. Slip on the latest generation of light, comfortable 3D glasses to enjoy your favorite 3D movies. Four pair of glasses included..

Sense of Quartz design: Inspired by the sharp edges and colour found in quartz crystals, the Quartz-cut design brings a new edge to TV with a hint of translucent colour that emphasizes the hidden gem within. Brilliant colour, sharp detail and an overall sense of beauty can be found in the thin border that traces the edge of the TV screen..

Twice the fun: 2-player games with no split screen: Say goodbye to split screen. Now you and a friend can both experience your own big-screen view of the action as you play nail-biting games on your PlayStation®4 system. SimulView™ gaming presents two separate full screen pictures: each player watches independently through light, easy-to-wear optional SimulView glasses that don’t need batteries. There’s already a growing choice of SimulView™ game titles available..

Onboard manual: You will never lose your TV manual again. The iManual is available through the menu system on the TV – always there if you need it..
