Sony’s Bravia 9 II is Most Colorful We’ve Seen. Is That Enough to Drop QLED?
Sony has introduced its new Bravia 9 II RGB TV, which features a vivid picture quality that some may find unrealistic. The company claims that its 'True RGB' technology offers superior color accuracy and brightness compared to previous models. However, the effectiveness of the picture quality may depend on the settings used.
- ▪The Bravia 9 II boasts twice the color volume of the older Bravia 9 QLED.
- ▪It can maintain picture quality at nearly 80-degree angles and offers a peak brightness of 4,000 nits.
- ▪The Bravia 7 II, while using the same RGB technology, lacks some features of the Bravia 9 II, such as the antireflection filter.
