Sony Europe B.V. has announced that its new A95L TV will go on sale early September. The much-anticipated top-of-the-line television is available to pre-order now in select countries in Europe.
The A95L has the updated Cognitive Processor XRTM featuring the all new XR Clear Image technology, which improves noise reduction and clarity with motion, reducing blur and creating scenes bursting with action.
Additionally, the A95L offers Acoustic Center Sync, which synchronises the TV’s audio system with the centre channel of a compatible Sony soundbar turning it into the centre speaker for the ultimate, immersive at-home experience1. For consumers looking for an even more captivating sound experience, each model also works with Sony soundbars to offer 360 Spatial Sound Mapping which generates phantom speakers and sound field optimisation. The TV features Acoustic Surface Audio+™ with actuators that vibrate to produce sound from the entire screen, perfectly matching what’s on the screen.
The A95L line-up also allows gamers to take their PlayStation® 5 gaming to the next level with exclusive features, including Auto HDR Tone Mapping and Auto Genre Picture Mode, for optimised picture quality while gaming and streaming. Other features include an easy-to-use Game Menu where gamers can tailor their settings to their preferences, such as turning on or off VRR or Motion Blur Reduction with quick access. The Game Menu also allows users to increase the brightness in dark areas to easily spot objects and opponents with the Black Equalizer and can easily take aim on their opponents with six types of crosshairs. New this year is the ability to customise the size of the screen with the Screen Size feature to concentrate gaming with a smaller, focused screen2.
Additionally, Sony is keeping its commitment to decreasing plastic usage through its Road to Zero initiative. To reduce environmental impact, Sony is working on multiple aspects of the product life cycle, such as reduction of virgin plastic use, improvement of transportation efficiency, and reviewing energy consumption during use. Sony’s OLED TVs3 use SORPLAS™, Sony’s very own recycled plastic, for the rear cover4, the largest TV part by area, reducing overall virgin plastic use by approximately 60%. The new Eco Dashboard included on all 2023 models allows users to easily customise energy saving preferences and settings.
