Sony KD-43XF8096<\/h3>\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-7962 lazyloaded aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/77_techweek.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"630\" height=\"540\" data-ll-status=\"loaded\" \/><figcaption>Sony KD-43XF8096 LED.\u00a0Photo: Sony<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>A high-quality 43-inch model from the Japanese brand, which is one of the most technically advanced devices in the segment.\u00a0Sony decided not to waste time on trifles and installed an IPS-matrix with a resolution of 4K with a viewing angle of 178 \u00b0 and capable of playing video in HDR 10 on the TV. Smart TV here runs on Android and an experienced user can easily customize the TV \u201cfor themselves\u201d using third-party programs.\u00a0However, the manufacturer &#8220;did not report&#8221; the power and many users complain about the thoughtfulness of the interface and the lag of the shell.\u00a0And the TV also has Bluetooth, which for some reason cannot work with wireless headphones.<\/p>\n<h3>4. Sony KDL-43WF805<\/h3>\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-7963 lazyloaded aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/78_techweek.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"630\" height=\"540\" data-ll-status=\"loaded\" \/><figcaption>Sony KDL-43WF804 LED.\u00a0Photo: Sony<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>43-inch TV with a display resolution of 1920\u00d71080 pixels.

The &#8220;smart&#8221; functionality is based on the processor from MTK. And yet, the KDL-43WF805 has voice control, four HDMI ports, support for wired and wireless Internet.<\/p>\n<h3>5. Sony KD-55XF7005<\/h3>\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-7964 lazyloaded aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/79_techweek.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"630\" height=\"540\" data-ll-status=\"loaded\" \/><figcaption>Sony KD-55XF7005 LED.\u00a0Photo: Sony<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Large model TV 2018 model year.\u00a0The 55-inch IPS panel has a resolution of 3840\u00d72160 pixels and is capable of playing videos in HDR 10 advanced dynamic tone mapping. In addition, the display features a high brightness of 350 cd\/m2 and a contrast ratio of 3300:1.\u00a0An expensive model could not do without smart TV &#8211; here it runs on Linux.\u00a0You will not find many applications in the store, but everything you need is there, and many will appreciate the work without brakes and friezes.\u00a0In the merits of the KD-55XF7005, we will write down the low weight &#8211; only 16 kg for 55 inches.\u00a0True, it was not without nuances &#8211; the sound of 20 W is frankly weak for such a large TV, and the lack of USB 3.0 connectors on the modern model looks like savings.<\/p>\n<h3>6. Sony KD-55AF8<\/h3>\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-7965 lazyloaded aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/80_techweek.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"630\" height=\"540\" data-ll-status=\"loaded\" \/><figcaption>Sony KD-55AF8 HDR.\u00a0Photo: Sony<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Another 55-inch model from Sony, but with today&#8217;s top specifications.\u00a0Its main feature was the OLED matrix, with all its pluses and minuses.\u00a0The display resolution here is 3840\u00d72160 pixels, the color reproduction is one of the best on the market, the brightness is 500 cd\/m2, and the black color is truly black.\u00a0However, some buyers have encountered an unpleasant marriage of a burnt-out strip of pixels that stretches across the entire screen.\u00a0Apparently, this is a lack of a separate batch of TVs.\u00a0Android-based smart TV is responsible for the \u201csmart\u201d leaving here &#8211; there is a lot of memory and good performance, so there will be no problems in this direction.\u00a0Of course, the TV has a scattering of ports and there is Internet access via wire and Wi-Fi.\u00a0By the way, the Sony KD-55AF8 has a good built-in sound at 50 W and deep sound.<\/p>\n<h3>7. Sony KD-85XF8596<\/h3>\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-7966 lazyloaded aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/81_techweek.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"630\" height=\"540\" data-ll-status=\"loaded\" \/><figcaption>Sony KD-85XF8596 LED.\u00a0Photo: Sony<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Giant TV for the price of a used foreign car.\u00a0Sony KD-85XF8596 differs not only in price and size, but also in its characteristics.\u00a0It uses a high-end 85-inch IPS-matrix with 4K resolution.\u00a0The picture can be updated at an honest 100 Hz, which is only available for premium models.\u00a0Another technology for improving the image is Local dimming &#8211; the backlight in this TV is designed so that some of the LEDs can turn off, so that the black color in part of the screen becomes deeper.\u00a0Smart TV here is based on Android. Some users complain about the thoughtfulness of the TV when switching terrestrial digital television programs.\u00a0Well, the sound at 20 watts looks very pale, especially for an 85-inch giant.\u00a0However, many immediately after the purchase will connect external acoustics to this TV.<\/p>\n<h3>8. Sony KD-49XF7596<\/h3>\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-7967 lazyloaded aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/82_techweek.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"630\" height=\"540\" data-ll-status=\"loaded\" \/><figcaption>Sony KD-49XF7596 LED.\u00a0Photo: Sony<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Perhaps this 49-inch model of 2018 can be the choice of a person who is looking for a modern, balanced TV.\u00a0It uses a high-quality IPS-matrix with a resolution of 4K.\u00a0However, when buying, we advise you to pay attention to the presence of backlight at the edges of the screen, on some copies it occurs on a dark background.\u00a0The color reproduction in the KD-49XF7596 does not go into too \u201cwarm\u201d or \u201ccold\u201d tone, but produces a smooth picture.\u00a0Smart TV runs on Android, which means there will be no problems with the software.\u00a0Like the brakes, the TV has a fairly powerful platform, and the built-in storage has a capacity of 16 GB.\u00a0By the way, Wi-Fi on the TV works at 5 GHz, which means that the connection will be stable if you have an appropriate router.\u00a0However, you need to be prepared for a weak sound and not the most convenient control panel.<\/p>\n<h3>9. Sony KDL-50WF665<\/h3>\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-7969 lazyloaded aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.stereoindex.com\/tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/83_techweek.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"630\" height=\"540\" data-ll-status=\"loaded\" \/><figcaption>Sony KDL-50WF665 LED.\u00a0Photo: Sony<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The 50-inch TV looks like a simplified version of the previous Sony.\u00a0The screen here has a resolution of 1920 \u00d7 1080 pixels and is made using VA technology, but has good color reproduction.\u00a0The &#8220;smart&#8221; functionality of the Sony KDL-50WF665 is based on the Linux operating system, which is good in terms of performance, but does not promise an abundance of software.\u00a0By the way, some users complain about the limited functionality of the smart TV shell, but it will be impossible for an inexperienced user to get confused in it.\u00a0The sound of the built-in speakers in the KDL-50WF665 is not outstanding at all &#8211; with a power of 10 watts, but loud enough.\u00a0And yet, the TV has a stand where you can hide the wires from it.\u00a0In a fairly large model, the manufacturer added only two HDMI and USB.<\/p>\n<h3>10.
