What customers say
Customers overwhelmingly praise the Sony BRAVIA 9 for its reference level picture quality, positioning it as a top non-OLED contender. The revolutionary peak brightness and exceptional contrast control are consistently highlighted, allowing HDR content to truly shine even in bright rooms while delivering deep blacks with minimal blooming. The XR Processor ensures superb motion handling, pleasing gamers and sports fans. While the premium price point is a noted concern for some buyers debating the overall value, the consensus confirms that the BRAVIA 9 delivers cutting edge performance and cinematic immersion for those prioritizing picture excellence.
Know before you buy
The BRAVIA 9 uses thousands of tiny LEDs controlled by the XR Backlight Master Drive. This allows for much more precise local dimming, resulting in deeper blacks and significantly higher peak brightness without the 'blooming' effect often seen in lesser displays.
Yes. The TV features X-Anti Reflection technology to minimize glare from windows or lamps, and X-Wide Angle ensures that colors and contrast remain consistent even if you are sitting off to the side of the screen.
The BRAVIA 9 is optimized for PS5 with Auto HDR Tone Mapping, which automatically adjusts HDR settings during the initial console setup for the best possible detail. It also features Auto Genre Picture Mode, which switches the TV to the ideal picture setting depending on whether you are gaming or watching a movie.
Unlike standard TVs, the BRAVIA 9 includes upward-facing Beam Tweeters and frame tweeters. This design creates a more immersive soundstage where the audio feels like it is emanating directly from the screen rather than from the bottom or back of the unit.
Absolutely. The TV has Chromecast built-in and is compatible with Apple AirPlay 2, allowing you to stream content easily from your mobile devices. It also supports Alexa integration for hands-free voice control of your smart home.
The 4-way stand offers flexible placement options to suit your furniture. You can adjust it to create a narrow footprint for smaller media consoles, a wide stance for stability, or raise the height to accommodate a soundbar underneath the screen.
