Features
Four times clearer than HD
That’s right—four times clearer than Full HD 1080p1. Get acquainted with the highest resolution picture Sony has ever
produced on a TV. With four times more resolution than Full HD, the 4K Ultra HD screen contains over 8 million individual
pixels (3,840 x 2,160). Advanced picture processing ensures that every one of those pixels displays images with superb
brightness and authentic detail.
Everything enhanced
Suddenly, everything looks better. Now even old movies and smartphone video clips are enhanced with stunning results.
The new 4K X-Reality™ PRO chip enhances HD (or lower resolution) images by analyzing and rening images with beautifully
natural detail and astounding color. The latest Reality Creation database and Super Resolution processing breathes new life
into everything you see with phenomenal 4K (3,840 x 2,160) resolution2.
More brilliant color than ever before
Spoil yourself with the widest color spectrum we’ve ever oered on a television. Unique to Sony, TRILUMINOS Display
technology creates incredibly true, natural shades of colors— just the way you want them. Hard-to-reproduce reds, aqua
blues and emerald greens are displayed beautifully, so landscapes and seascapes look more vivid. Faces look better, too,
with natural skin tones. It’s all thanks to a new TRILUMINOS display that gives images a heightened sense of depth.
Sound Innovation
These aren’t the TV speakers you’re used to. Unique to Sony TVs, Magnetic Fluid Speaker technology allows a thinner, more
ecient loudspeaker that oers faithful reproduction of high-delity sound. The frontfacing speaker system directs sound
right at you with 65 watts of power3. S-Force® Front Surround 3D simulates 5.1 sound, with an enlarged sweet spot that
everyone in the room can enjoy.
The dierence is dynamic.

It's all about perfecting a natural look. Dynamic Edge LED backlighting with local 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.
Movies in 4K Ultra HD
Get the most out of your 4K Ultra HD TV with feature lms in true 4K resolution only from Sony. The 4K Media Player (sold
separately) comes preloaded with 10 feature lms and video shorts. Coming soon is the Sony 4K network video service
oering access to a library of 4K movies and TV show titles9 . As a special introductory oer when you are one of the rst to
purchase a Sony 4K Ultra HD TV (55X900A or 65X900A) you are also eligible to receive a $200 voucher toward the purchase
of the 4K Ultra HD Media Player when available.
Lifelike motion.
Watch the sprinter break o the blocks and race smoothly as the camera follows him from le to right. Even quick motion
seen in action movies appears amazingly realistic as Motionow™ XR 960 technology, which takes motion clarity beyond
refresh rates, smoothes out the picture where the camera can't for clearer and more natural movement.
Your smartphone, now on TV
Movies, music and apps from your smartphone can now be viewed big on your TV. With three ways to connect Android
phones and tablets to the X900A, Sony is helping you add value to the entertainment you already own.
1. Using a Mobile High Denition Link cable, you can connect your smartphone to the TV to literally “mirror” what’s seen on
the smartphone screen. Video, photos and apps are re-sized and scaled to t the larger TV screen. You can then use the TV
remote to navigate the phone, while it’s charging from the TV11.
2. Using screen mirroring technology, you can connect phones that are Miracast™ enabled to the TV10.
3. Using One-touch mirroring with NFC technology, briey place your compatible Xperia™ smartphone to the onetouch
remote. You’ll instantly be able to view exactly what is on your smartphone’s screen on the TV4.
Go way beyond cable with builtin Wi-Fi®
Wirelessly stream beautiful, HD entertainment straight from the internet or your home network using built-in Wi-Fi®
connectivity and 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 at your ngertips. By connecting to the Internet you can

more.5
