The Sony BRAVIA 9 II is a 4K HDR Google TV with Gemini. Its True RGB backlight is an evolved Backlight Master Drive that drives three-color LEDs independently. It combines a wide color range with the high brightness of a Mini LED. True RGB sensing detects LED operating efficiency in real time and adjusts brightness to keep colors true to the input video.
The XR Processor uses AI scene recognition to adjust color, contrast and clarity in every frame. XR Clear Image restores lost detail and reduces noise. XR Contrast Booster balances light across the screen for higher peaks and deeper blacks. XR Motion Clarity analyzes movement across several frames and syncs the backlight with on-screen motion. X-Wide Angle Pro keeps color and contrast consistent from the side. Immersive Black Screen Pro uses a screen treatment to minimize reflections. The 115" model does not have the anti-glare screen treatment.
Acoustic Multi-Audio+ with a Beam Tweeter at the top provides surround sound. 3D Surround Upscaling expands stereo into wider 3D audio, and Voice Zoom 3 uses AI to make dialogue clearer. A subwoofer, rear speakers, or both can connect directly to the TV. You can ask Gemini for recommendations, find content, open apps and control compatible smart home devices. The TV also supports Apple AirPlay 2 and Google Cast, and includes gaming tools for PS5.
