A 50-inch curved screen TV from a Japanese manufacturer debuted on the market in 2016. The Ultra HD-enabled panel is mid-range, comes with Dolby Digital 2.0 audio, and runs on the increasingly popular Android TV platform.
Clear, bright, juicy picture
In addition to Ultra HD 4K resolution, the Sony KD-50SD8005 supports HDR technology. Feel all the benefits of natural colour reproduction and detailed reproduction of the smallest details of the image, even without the corresponding content, an 8-bit matrix with Frame rate control technologies helps. It brings the colour depth closer to 10 bits and makes it possible to display a billion shades.
For excellent brightness and contrast of the image in the model, the Edge LED backlight located at the bottom of the screen with a dynamic dimming algorithm, regulated by a 4-core X-Reality PRO processor, is responsible.
Attractive and practical
The curved screen in tandem with the black aluminium frame looks beautiful whether the TV is mounted on a stand or wall-mounted. The advantage of the model is the system of hidden placement of wires. They hide in a stand on the back, which adds aesthetics, orderliness and ease of cleaning.
The disadvantage of the Sony KD-50SD8005 is the low frame rate of 60 Hz, as for modern requirements. The Motionflow™ XR feature is supposed to compensate for the lack of smoothness in software, but against the background of TVs with 120 Hz, the difference is clearly visible. The disadvantages include the possibility of light in the dark, but this is typical of most TVs with Edge LED backlighting.
The Sony KD-50SD8005 TV is a worthy representative of curved panels in the middle price range. If high smoothness of video playback is not a critical moment for you, then the offered indicators of brightness, colour reproduction and image contrast can be a decisive factor in favor of this TV.

Advanced Contrast Enhancer
The Advanced Contrast Enhancer optimizes contrast in every scene by varying the backlight intensity to capture the finest levels of gradation. This allows us to see deeper blacks, even in dimly lit scenes.
24p True Cinema
This mode allows you to watch movies as they were conceived by the director himself — on a large screen with a frequency of 24 frames per second. Until quite recently, the movies we watched at home played faster than in theaters. Because a movie that is shown on TV or sold on DVD needs to be adjusted to fit the PAL format. The difference is that movies are shot at 24 frames per second, while television standard is 25 frames per second.
