New Sony Bravia HDTVs

3D HDTVs have finally reached the Philippines! And so have a new line of HDTVs from Sony.

I attended the press launch of the new models for Sony Bravia at the Boracay Shangrila thinking it was just your ordinary television.

But before I show you how Sony plans to revolutionize home entertainment, let me explain to you the concept behind Sony’s 2010 Bravia collection. This is the Monolithic Design concept infused within all the new BRAVIA models. The first feature is the On/Of Conscious, which allows viewers to be enlivened by an extraordinary spectacle when the BRAVIA is turned on, while being enamored by a gorgeous single surface when the BRAVIA is turned off. The second is Upward Style – you can recline the TV at a 6° angle – giving you the impression of the TV looking towards you, while adding a sense of space to your room. The final theme, or Contrast of Material, proves that the Sony BRAVIA TVs can blend into any environment to bring contrast and unity.

These concepts are part of the philosophy of Tatazumai, which artist Kidlat de Guia used as inspiration for his latest collection. His work, which is showcased together with the launch of the 2010 BRAVIA collection, further emphasizes the trends that have redefined television design this year. Whatever model you choose, there is a BRAVIA to ensure that your entertainment experience is nothing short of a dream come true.

Sony Bravia LX900

On with the new HDTVs! This is the new Bravia LX900, also known as the first 3D TV to be unveiled in the Philippines. Featuring full high definition 3D technology from Sony, the LX900 has a the high frame rate made possible in 240Hz LCD TVs together with Active Shutter glass technology. This creates ncredibly realistic depth and vivid 3D images.

It felt so real just viewing the images with the glasses

While Full HD 3D is the new frontier, Sony stands tall not just as the company with the widest array of 3D ready products, but also as the only the consumer electronics with a grasp of 3D content. Bringing 3D movies into your home is now made easier as Sony moved to take its triumphant Blu-ray technology into a whole new dimension with the introduction of a new affordable 3D Blu-ray Disc Player. Also featuring Sony’s Monolithic Design Philosophy, the BDP-S470 with software upgrade will be ready to play 3D Blu-ray Disc movies on a 3D enabled TV.

You can easily plug an external Hard Disk Drive or USB device into the front USB port of the Blu-ray Disc Players and enjoy movies, music or photos through your TV or home cinema system. With Blu-ray compatibility extended to an even larger range of file types, including DivX HD and MKV format, it’s easier than ever to share personal entertainment from all over the home.
