<\/a>Sony’s launching thirty-eight<\/em> TVs. The best, the XBR-LX900, is a 3D-ready edge-lit LED set that goes up to 60 inches with 240Hz, Wi-Fi (for video services like Netflix), face detection (for auto-backlight dimming) and an anti-reflective panel. And Three-Dee.<\/p>\n

<\/a>I’d personally go with the XBR-HX900, which is 3D like the LX900, but it’s got LED backlighting with local dimming. It’s just smaller, only going up to 52 inches. The new “Monolithic” design language looks like classic Sony, but hey, it’s really nice. They’re available for pre-order tonight on Sony Style.<\/p>\n

Stepping down further, past the warm comfort of XBR, 3D continues in the HX800, but you lose perks like built-in Wi-Fi. Or with the NX800, you can trade in 3D for Wi-Fi, and going further, 240Hz gives way to 120Hz, on down the line.<\/p>\n

BRAVIA XBR<\/a>-LX900 Series 3D HDTV
Available this summer, the BRAVIA XBR-LX900 series features integrated 3D functionality and screen sizes including 60 (XBR-60LX900), 52 (XBR-52LX900), 46 (XBR-46LX900), and 40-inch (XBR-40LX900).
The full HD 1080p (1920 x 1080) models feature Edge LED backlight, Sony’s new Monolithic Design and Motionflow\u2122 PRO 240Hz motion compensation technology, which helps produces smooth images in fast moving content such as sport and action movies. Sony’s 240Hz technology also reduces the mixing of images of 3D content assigned to the left and right eyes, while the BRAVIA Engine\u2122 3 full digital video processor uses a collection of enhanced algorithms to significantly reduce noise, enhance overall image detail, and optimize contrast so every scene produces sharp, vibrant, life-like images.
The LX900 models also feature Sony’s new OptiContrast panel. Designed with a clear surface treatment and a resin sheet sandwiched between the LCD display panel and glass plate, the OptiContrast panel minimizes the reflection and refraction of external and internal light producing deeper images with superior black levels even in bright rooms.<\/p>\n

The models include integrated Wi-Fi for an easy connection to broadband home networks.\u00a0 Once connected, users can access thousands of streaming movies, videos, music and more from Netflix, Amazon Video on Demand, YouTube\u2122, Slacker\u00ae Internet Radio, Pandora\u00ae, NPR, Sony Pictures, Sony Music, and over 25 total providers through the Sony BRAVIA<\/a> Internet Video platform.
Also, with the touch of a button, users can access the latest in news, weather, USA Today sports, Yahoo Finance, Twitter, Flickr photos, and FrameChannel through small applications called BRAVIA Internet Widgets.\u00a0 The widgets can be uniquely positioned anywhere on the TV screen for a custom viewing experience.<\/p>\n

The models also feature playback of personal content including digital pictures, video, and music through USB and DLNA\u00ae certified network connections.
Another new feature is Sony’s Intelligent Presence Sensor with face detection. The sensor detects if you’ve stepped away from the TV or are not watching the screen and automatically dims the backlight. After an extended period, the TV will turn off if no one has re-entered the viewing area. Additionally, the Intelligent Presence Sensor’s newly added Position Control feature detects a user’s viewing position to deliver optimized video\/sound balance, while the Distance Alert feature helps to keep small children at an eye-friendly distance.<\/p>\n

The models also offer Sony’s BRAVIA Sync\u2122 for easy operation with other BRAVIA Sync devices such as AV receivers and Blu-ray Disc\u2122 players, and TVGuide\u00ae on-screen channel guide.<\/p>\n

BRAVIA XBR-HX900 Series 3D Ready HDTV
The XBR-HX900 series 3D ready (with the addition of Sony active shutter glasses and transmitter, both sold separately) full HD (1920 x 1080p) models feature Intelligent Dynamic LED backlight and Sony’s new Monolithic Design.
The model’s full-array LED backlighting improves contrast and dynamic range by local dimming that controls the LED backlight level by area so that detail is maintained in the dark areas, while other areas are driven near peak brightness. The technology reduces unnecessary light emission resulting in true and deep blacks compared to conventional LED backlit models.
The models also feature Sony’s new ambient sensor that automatically optimizes the TV’s color and brightness according to the room environment and lighting conditions for optimized settings.
Featuring screen sizes including 52 (XBR-52HX900) and 46-inches (XBR-46HX900), the model offers four HDMI 1.4 inputs, one component input, one composite input, one component\/composite selectable inputs, and a PC input (HD15) with PC\/TV picture-in-picture.
