Sony recently announced the launch of its flagship Bravia 9 TVs for 2024 in Europe. However, there was disappointment among AV fans as it was revealed that the 65-inch Bravia 9 model would only be available in the U.S. This left European consumers with only the option of purchasing the 75 and 85-inch models, which come with a premium price tag.
Many were puzzled by this decision, and frustrated consumers even started a petition on change.org to urge Sony to make the 65-inch model available in Europe. Fortunately, Sony has now listened to the feedback and decided to introduce the 65-inch Bravia 9 to the European market as well. The model is expected to arrive in Europe in November, although the pricing has not been confirmed yet.
In the U.S., the 65-inch Bravia 9 is priced at $2,999.99, while the 75-inch model is priced at $3,499.99. It is hoped that the introduction of the 65-inch model in Europe will provide consumers with a more affordable option to access the advanced Mini LED lighting and local dimming system that the Bravia 9 offers.
The Bravia 9 TVs are equipped with XR Backlight Master Drive technology, which combines high peak brightness with precise backlight control and thousands of mini-LED dimming zones. This allows for unprecedented contrast and aims to deliver a viewing experience that can keep up with the new high dynamic range mastering potential.
Overall, the addition of the 65-inch Bravia 9 to the European market is welcome news for AV enthusiasts who were eagerly waiting to experience the cutting-edge technology offered by Sony’s flagship TV range. As more details about the pricing and availability of the 65-inch model in Europe are expected to be revealed soon, consumers can look forward to enjoying a premium viewing experience at a more accessible price point.
