Sony has expanded its line-up with the new 65” and 55” X8500P series 4K LED displays following the release of its 84” 4K LED TV. The models give customers more variation and greater flexibility when looking to buy display kit. The displays both deliver stunning pictures and high quality sound which enable users to deliver a previously unavailable fully immersive viewing experience.
The displays utilise the latest X-Real
ity PRO engine, which analyses, cleans and refines the images, carefully matching pixel patterns against its huge database. It gives the user the best picture from any source – from high-resolution images and advertising material to low-resolution videos. Sony’s unique TRILUMINOS display enriches the viewing experience with an even wider palette of rich, ultra-real colours. It also achieves a wide colour gamut by integrating QD Vision’s Colour IQ ™ (*1) optical component with Sony’s unique display technologies. This increases the depth of the image and makes colours more vivid.
Designed specifically for the corporate presentation market and organisations with public display requirements, the W850 series maximises audience engagement with unrivalled image quality and intelligent eco-conscious brightness.
Sony says its LED Backlight technology ensures the new FWD-65W855P model is extremely detailed, delivers high contrast pictures and can also lower energy bills. The display utilises Light Sensor, an automatic feature which enables brightness to be adjusted to match the surrounding ambient light levels.
Features include:
- The ability to control displays via IP (WEBAPI) and RS232C (optional accessories CBX-H11/1 is required)
- A D-Sub 15 pin terminal alongside an HDMI port for connection to a PC
- Built-in Wi-Fi for browsing the internet or receiving signage content
- A slim bezel design, providing a low impact, professional aesthetic
All three products are compatible with TV SideView, an application that allows effortless control of the professional displays using a smartphone or tablet. Supported on Android and iOS devices, TV SideView integrates social media, as well as the ability to throw web URLs to the display’s internet browser, view the TV manual and use a tablet as a universal remote. In addition, all displays come Skype ready with the addition of an optional accessory.
Discussing the new professional range, Tak Nakane, Display Product Manager at Sony Europe, said: “Broadening our range and the options we can offer our customers, is important to Sony. An 84” 4K Professional display isn’t going to fit every installation environment, so the addition of the 55” and 65” models gives our customers more choice and opens up a whole new world of Sony 4K professional solutions to them. We are now offering our customers a wide range of Full HD displays, from 42” through to the new 65”. Never before has Sony provided so much choice for the retail, corporate and education environments. This is an exciting time for these fast developing markets.”
All the display models will be available from mid-November 2013.
