Sony guide to buying a 3D TV

12th November 2010 Print

Sony spokesperson, Omar Gurnah, explains exactly what features you should look for when considering buying a 3D TV. Watch this video to find out about what you need to get the best 3D experience. It covers 2D TV, LCD vs Plasma, crosstalk, viewing angles, 3D glasses, available content plus a push to in store promotional bundles and the 3D Experience Locator.

3D TVs are still a relatively new technology, and not all 3D enabled TVs are the same. Before you head online or down to your local store, it is worth considering the following aspects of a BRAVIA 3D TV:

Sony 3D televisions have LED boost which is a feature that makes our TV’s amongst the brightest in the market

Some LCD televisions can suffer from occasional slight blurring around 3D images, also known as crosstalk. But the good news is Sony has a high frame rate which helps to reduce crosstalk

Sony TV’s have up to 15 LED transmitters that enable your 3D glasses to talk wirelessly to the TV, giving you a viewing angle of up to 120 degrees. This means that the viewing angle and experience will not be affected

Sony 3D glasses are easily adjustable and the side panel is covered so light or reflections will not distract from what you are watching

An increasing amount of 3D content is being delivered direct to a 3D TV by broadcasters, satellite and cable companies. 3D content can also be watched through a Blu-ray player or a Playstation 3, the most accomplished 3D source

And last but not least, the Sony BRAVIA HX900 was awarded the best 3D LCD TV in 2010 for the picture quality on both 2D and 3D by the European Imaging and Sound Association (EISA)
