Sony 4K TVs are also ready to support the next 4K video formats, such as 60p 4K sports video, that will become possible using the new HDMI 2.0 specification

A convenient and free Internet firmware update will be available late 2013.* Frequently Asked Questions What is the difference between 1080p and 4K? 4K Ultra HD TVs deliver more than 4 times the resolution of 1080P HDTVs

On a 1080p HDTV, there are over 2 million pixels that make up the image while on a 4K Ultra HD TV, there are over 8 million pixels

The resolution of an HDTV is 1,920 X 1,080 (horizontal X vertical) while the resolution of a 4K Ultra HD TV is 3,840 X 2,160 (horizontal X Vertical)

Since there are 4 times more pixels, 4K Ultra HD TVs can more easily reproduce the smallest details

Due to this increased resolution, you can now sit closer to a larger TV screen and enjoy a clearer picture

Will my regular cable programming, Blu-ray Discs, DVDs, and streaming entertainment appear different on my 4K Ultra HD TV?Yes

The Sony 4K Ultra HD TVs enhance the picture quality of everything you watch with Sony’s exclusive upscaling technology2

The Sony 4K X-Reality PRO Picture engine analyzes and refines images from all sources

Your TV shows, movies, sports, and streaming entertainment will look better2

And with more than 7,000 Blu-ray discs on the market, there is plenty of movie content to enjoy at home, now upscaled to near 4K

How close to the TV must I sit to appreciate 4K?The short answer is that between 5 and 6 ft

is the ideal viewing distance for a 55” or 65” Sony 4K Ultra HD TV

However, on a 55“, you can now sit as close as 3.6 ft and enjoy a visibly smoother and more detailed picture (e.g you won’t see the individual pixels)

On a 65“ TV, you can sit as close as 4.2 ft

to appreciate 4K

Since the pixels on a 4K Ultra HD TV are four times smaller than on an HDTV, it becomes harder to see them

In fact, you can sit closer to a 65” Sony 4K Ultra HDTV than you can to a 35” HDTV

When you sit closer to the screen, you feel like you are immersed in the action

You get the same visual impact as you would sitting in the best seat at a movie theater

What can I currently watch in true 4K? In near-4K?For your immediate enjoyment of your Sony 4K Ultra HD TV, Sony's unrivaled 4K X-Reality PRO picture processor ensures that all of your existing TV programs, sports and movies are upscaled to super clear 4K quality2
