Sony BRAVIA KD65X85LU

Smooth-flowing, detailed and with vivid colour, the Sony BRAVIA KD-65X85LU focuses on the best possible picture quality.

The best picture and more
The Sony BRAVIA KD-65X85LU has just what it takes to deliver class-leading picture quality. With a battery of technology, including Full Array local dimming, X-Motion Clarity and a native 100Hz/120Hz screen, the picture is brilliantly detailed, bright and blur-free. Enhanced gaming features and world-class Google TV complete a highly impressive package.

Full Array LED, with local dimming for excellent contrast
Full Array, local dimming screens increase the number of dimming zones, giving the processor greater control over the image’s brightness and clarity. With this Sony 65 inch TV you benefit from improved clarity in the darker areas of the screen, greater image depth and a more lifelike appearance overall.

Sony 4K HDR Processor X1 brings every scene to life
Using their powerful 4K HDR Processor X1, the BRAVIA KD-65X85LU optimises every scene. Taking in colour, contrast and clarity, all aspects of the picture are enhanced. Thanks to 4K X-Reality PRO, it’s not just 4K signals that benefit from this screen’s brilliance, either. Video filmed in Full HD or HD is upscaled to 4K quality, maximising the screens full potential, with all types of media.

Super-smooth images, enhanced by X-Motion Clarity
Using a true 100Hz/120Hz panel gives this Sony a faster refresh rate for smoother, more natural motion. Sony’s X-Motion technology enhances the panel’s natural refresh advantage, to give pin-sharp detail, even when the action is fast-paced. Ideal for sports, action movies and gaming, X-Motion Clarity makes a big difference when keeping up with the action – without losing the detail.

X-Balanced speakers for crisp audio
Designed to enhance both the sound and style of this Sony TV, X-Balanced speakers use a unique design to enhance the clarity of speech and music, whilst keeping the cabinet sleek and slim. For the best in cinema sound, the sound is also compatible with Dolby Atmos audio.

Acoustic Auto Calibration for optimised sound
The Sony BRAVIA KD-65X85LU detects objects within the room and intelligently adapts the sound. Soft furnishings, such as heavy curtains can dull the room’s sound, for example, so the Sony optimises the sound to compensate for this. Just as it does to overcome any obstacles that may be in the way of the TV – such as a coffee table.

Works with BRAVIA CAM*
The optional BRAVIA CAM (extra cost option), is the innovative camera that does more than just video calls. BRAVIA CAM features a Proximity Alert, letting you set a safe recommended viewing distance for children. If they get too close, a warning is triggered. It also facilitates the use of gesture control, letting you change channel or adjust volume using simple gestures. All this plus it still functions with your TV to make it the ultimate device for video calls.

*Functions due later in 2023 via firmware update.

This TV also makes the perfect screen for your PS5. Whether you’re gaming or watching a movie on your PS5, the TV automatically adjusts to optimise the picture and settings. Auto HDR Tone Mapping and Auto Genre Picture Mode mean your PS5 is served better than ever by this Sony TV.

Using Google’s world-class interface, Google TV makes accessing this Sony TV’s smart features a breeze. Providing access to over 700,000 movies and TV episodes and over 10,000 apps and games, Google TV covers all the Smart entertainment you need.

Hands-free voice control your TV
Featuring Google Assistant built-in, this Sony TV effortlessly becomes part of your Google/Android home network. The built-in mic lets you search, hands-free. If you prefer to use a different platform, the Sony is compatible, too. Apple AirPlay and HomeKit compatibility makes it possible to integrate with your Apple system. Support for Amazon Alexa devices also means you can voice control via your existing Alexa device.

BRAVIA CORE – cinematic streaming
Sony’s BRAVIA CORE is a premium streaming service that’s a cut above the rest. With hundreds of movies, from classics to the latest releases, BRAVIA CORE has something for everyone. Compatible with resolution up to 4K HDR, detail is pin-sharp. Sony’s Pure Stream system streams movies at up to 80Mbps – similar to a 4K UHD Blu-ray player – against the average of 15-25Mbps. It’s also compatible with IMAX Enhanced, giving you the most cinematic sound and vision.

Adjustable stand suits all types of placement
Supplied with 2-postion feet, the BRAVIA KD-65X85LU is ideal for all types of placement. With the feet set at their outer position, the TV is at its most stable and well suited to a sideboard or larger TV cabinet. If you’re planning on siting the TV on a narrower piece of furniture, however, simply set the feet towards the centre, greatly reducing the stand’s total width.

Dedicated to the finest picture quality, the Sony KD-65X85LU sets the standard for others to follow.
