Sony Bravia XR 55" OLED 4K HDR Smart TV | XR55A84LU

Premium TV - evolved
The Sony BRAVIA XR55A80LU follows in a long line of award-winners, and has the all-round talent to remain at the top of its class. As well as sensational, XR powered OLED image quality, it has one of the most talented Smart systems around. The combination of Google TV and BRAVIA CORE gives you an unparalleled range of streaming content and the possibility of the highest quality, 4K HDR IMAX Enhanced streaming. A new Game Menu joins the optimised PS5 settings to make this Sony 55 inch TV even more appealing to gamers.

OLED optimised by Cognitive Processor XR for outstanding realism
With over eight million, self-illuminating pixels, OLED delivers exquisite image detail. For the deepest blacks, peak brightness and greatest contrast, it’s still the technology to beat. Add Sony’s powerful XR Picture Processing, however, and you get OLED – optimised to the max. The powerful XR Picture processing maximises OLED’s potential, meaning you get an even brighter and more detailed picture.

Extended colour volume and brightness, featuring XR Triluminos Pro
Powered by the Cognitive Processor XR, XR Triluminos Pro reproduces the widest range of colours, in the most natural shades possible. For the highest levels of contrast and detail, XR OLED Contrast Pro adjusts the brightness to give brighter peaks and more detail within darker areas.

Less blur and smoother images
Sony’s XR Clear Image uses zone and frame analysis to minimise noise and blur. Keeping the millions of pixels in check, Sony’s XR OLED Motion technology keeps the action flowing smoothly. It also minimises blur, using powerful processing to strike the perfect balance between ultimate detail and the smoothest motion.

Picture quality as the creator intended – IMAX Enhanced, Dolby Vision and Calman Ready
Compatible with a wide range of technologies, the BRAVIA XR55A80LU reproduces visuals, just as the creator intended. IMAX Enhanced and Dolby Vision compatibility help deliver cinematic vision. Calman Ready, this TV is also ideal for those who wish to calibrate their TV to truly professional levels. If you’re a boxset and movie fan, you’ll love NACM (Netflix Adaptive Calibrated Mode). NACM works with BRAVIA XR’s ambient light optimisation, adjusting the picture brightness to best show the drama in your room’s lighting conditions.

Works with BRAVIA CAM*
The optional BRAVIA CAM (extra cost option), is the innovative camera that does so much more than just video calls. BRAVIA CAM recognises where viewers are sitting and optimises the picture brightness to best suit the lighting conditions. Sound is optimised, too, giving you clearer dialogue and more accurate tracking. It also facilitates the use of gesture control, letting you change channel or adjust volume using simple gestures. All this plus it still functions with your TV to make it the ultimate device for video calls.

*Sound, brightness and gesture functions due later in 2023 via firmware update.

Sound to match the action, with Acoustic Surface Audio+
Sony’s unique Acoustic Surface Audio+ speaker system enhances the sync between what you see and what you hear. Vibrating actuators positioned behind the screen pinpoint the sound to the action, heightening the sense of connection and realism.

XR Surround and 360 Spatial Sound Personaliser for enveloping sound
XR Surround with 3D Surround Upscaling takes a regular audio signal and creates a virtual surround sound effect – making you feel more immersed in the action. Combine this TV with Sony’s SRS-NS7 wearable speaker or selected headphones and enjoy Dolby Atmos and simulated surround sound via 360 Spatial Sound.

Boost with a soundbar
Add a compatible Sony soundbar and enjoy sound that is more than the sum of the parts. With Acoustic Centre Sync, TV and soundbar combine to produce the clearest speech possible. A compatible Sony soundbar also improves the sound’s scale, realism and spaciousness, taking the audio to a new dimension.

New gaming features
From the makers of the PS5, here’s a TV that gives you more customisation with games than ever. With a new gaming menu, it’s easier to access your game status, settings and assist functions. This TV also makes the perfect screen for your PS5. Whether you’re gaming or watching a movie on your PS5, the TV automatically adjusts to optimise the picture and settings. Auto HDR Tone Mapping and Auto Genre Picture Mode mean your PS5 is served better than ever by this Sony TV.

Google TV
Using Google’s world-class interface, Google TV makes accessing this Sony TV’s smart features a breeze. Providing access to over 700,000 movies and TV episodes and over 10,000 apps and games, Google TV covers all the Smart entertainment you need. With access to Netflix, YouTube, Amazon Prime, Apple TV and Disney+, all your favourite streaming services are covered. Customise your home screen with the apps you use the most, enjoy recommendations, curate your movie nights and even add to your watch list via your smartphone – Google TV makes sense of Smart TV.

Hands-free voice control your TV
Featuring Google Assistant built-in, this Sony TV effortlessly becomes part of your Google/Android home network. The built-in mic lets you search, hands-free. If you prefer to use a different platform, the Sony is compatible, too. Apple AirPlay and HomeKit compatibility makes it possible to integrate with your Apple system. Support for Amazon Alexa devices also means you can voice control via your existing Alexa device.

BRAVIA CORE – cinematic streaming
Sony’s BRAVIA CORE is a premium streaming service that’s a cut above the rest. With hundreds of movies, from classics to the latest releases, BRAVIA CORE has something for everyone. Compatible with resolution up to 4K HDR, detail is pin-sharp. Sony’s Pure Stream system streams movies at up to 80Mbps – similar to a 4K UHD Blu-ray player – against the average of 15-25Mbps. It’s also compatible with IMAX Enhanced, giving you the most cinematic sound and vision.

3-way multi-position stand
Supplied with a 3-way, multi-position stand, the BRAVIA XR-55A80LU is ideal for all types of installation. Dedicated settings are available for use on a narrow support (feet positioned closer together), with soundbar (higher and further apart) or in the standard, low profile position.
