Since 2015, Android TV OS has been used as the software shell for Sony TVs. And if the system adapted for large screens at first caused complaints about the responsiveness of the interface, now it is one of the most flexible and easy to use, especially against the backdrop of a huge number of compatible applications.

realism

The 55-inch display of the model supports a number of modern technologies designed to serve one purpose — to make the picture as colorful and realistic as possible. So, for the richness of the palette of shades, the proprietary Triluminos technology is responsible, which is based on improving the quality of the display of red, blue and green colours. The widest possible dynamic range of the image will help to transfer support for HDR. A powerful processor will allow you to efficiently convert content to UltraHD format with a lower resolution.

Picture

In fast-paced scenes, the picture is shown on the screen very smoothly, which is facilitated by the high value of the dynamic scene display index — 1000 fps. Image jerks are almost 100% eliminated.

Nuances

Not everything is so smooth only with the sound quality — two built-in speakers with a total power of 20 W are directed downwards and give a good result only when using all kinds of sound "improvers". By the way, there are not so few of them in the arsenal of the TV. Another point of contention is the display of content from external storage devices (flash drives or HDD) — Sony KD-55XD8599 opens all files in bulk, grouping them not by folders, but by category (video, photo, etc.).

Useful "buns"

The TV case implements the concept of ultra-slim design — the screen thickness of the model is only 44 mm. Of the other positive "goodies", it is necessary to focus on the support for voice search, which is carried out through a remote control with a built-in microphone. Well, where without the function of broadcasting pictures from mobile gadgets on the TV screen. With such rich equipment, the Sony KD-55XD8599 becomes a very desirable device for home use.

Good to know:

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.
