Money shy VR on the human eye pleasure Sony 4K LCD TV X9000F experience

The world-wide CES show officially opened in Las Vegas, USA as scheduled. This year, Sony of Japan also brought two high-profile debuts of the new TV series, namely the OLED TV A8F series and the 4K LCD TV X9000F series. CES, as the world's most influential consumer electronic technology annual exhibition, held in January each year, CES, TV manufacturers have always been focused on making the match. Fortunately, the first time to experience Sony's new 4K LCD TV.

From the model point of view, Sony 4K LCD TV X9000F Although the name from the perspective of Sony 4K LCD TV X9000E updated models, but it is actually Sony 4K LCD TV X9300/9400E advanced models. The 55-inch version was received this time, and the package is exactly the same as Sony's X9300E. The delivery of China Railway Logistics was also quite interesting. After many twists and turns was finally delivered to the home, but the television package was also firmly hit the wooden box, after the friend saw it jokingly said that this is what the ghost thing, playing with the coffin like of. However, this is also good, to ensure that the logistics is not easily broken down.

Unpacking/Appearance

With regard to unpacking and installation, it was completely completed by me. It was a bit difficult for a person to remove a wooden box, unpack a package, mount a stand, and transport it to a TV cabinet. Since the installation process was really embarrassing, the process was not shared, and Sony The official also provides quick delivery, door-to-door installation, commissioning and wall-mounting services. There is no need for a person to toss. It is worth mentioning that the installation of the TV is also very simple, the package comes with two bottom tripod, only need to fix four screws can be fixed, the installation is very convenient, X9000F this TV in the overall design continues "Slice of "Living" design concept, the foot bracket is extended to both sides for a more perfect placement effect. In addition, Sony officials also provide wall-hanging services. I personally prefer to hang it on the wall.

The front of this Sony TV looks like two white frames supporting a whole 55-inch screen on the table! If you hang it on the wall, the front looks like a wallpaper hanging on the wall, of course, due to the thickness of the reasons, from the side or worse. The reason why the frontal view is so shocking is that its entire body has only a narrow silver metal frame around the entire screen. Even the BRAVIA word in the upper left corner is looming. The bottom of the lower border is Sony's hot Silver Logo looks very atmospheric and beautiful. I personally do not like the effect of such brushed metal, and may be different from everyone's aesthetic, just as many previous mobile phone shells were made of brushed metal. Such a narrow screen has such a narrow metal frame, so overall, the visual impact of this TV set is still quite shocking.

The design idea on the back of the fuselage is the same as the front view. It is simple and the entire back panel looks very flat. Except for the few screws and the power cord on the left, there is almost no extra embellishment. The bottom bracket also has a cable sorting function. All cables are led out from the base unit. The back of the camera is seamless and simpler.

Although the back of the Sony X9000F does not look so dazzling, but in the details of handling it is very hard. In addition, the front of the TV screen was wrapped in a metal frame, and the front and rear of the frame are integrally formed. It looks very much like a sense of quality. Of course, it feels very comfortable to feel. This design was only available on some flagship machines with some 10,000 yuan.

The back of the right side and the bottom of the back is designed with some commonly used interfaces, such as HDMI interface, USB interface, 3.5mm audio output port, remote expander interface, antenna / cable port, LAN port, light port and so on. Next to the interface is the TV's power button. Does it look very small? The left side is the power cord, and the power cord is also made with a very elastic band that is very intimate. Almost all the cables are subtly hidden behind the fuselage, and the delicate design of the bracket makes the cable connection easier and faster.

The X9000F benefits from its slim body and extremely narrow frame design, which allows the TV to better display the content of the screen and enhance the viewing area, which makes our viewing more outstanding. The minimalist design from the front to the back to the back is not only cleverly hidden, but also looks simpler and more neat. Although there is no perfect score on the appearance of the value, I believe we will give him a similar score after reading it.

System Experience

Today's TVs are becoming smart, Sony's TV is no exception, the Sony X9000F will require a simple connection to the network, the TV set when the first boot, believe that anyone who has used a smart phone can Easy to set up. The X9000F is equipped with the new Sony Android 7.0 operating system. The overall interface is friendly and easy to use. The layout of the main interface is enough to see that it is sufficiently streamlined. The main functions and settings are all displayed in the form of a waterfall stream. It is very easy to get started. Thanks to the openness of the Android system, the Sony X9000F excels in the richness and expandability of its applications, and it has improved with previous Sony systems. Even the first time it can be used easily, the cost of learning is relatively low. It is low, and the operation interface is beautiful and the fluency is OK. This is very easy for the elders and children at home.

The X9000F system also has a built-in voice search function and uses a Baidu voice engine, which is more in line with the use of Chinese people. Just press the button of the microphone on the remote control to speak the program you want to watch, and then wait for the system to search. Whether it is watching a movie or chasing anime, it can quickly find the content you want. . Speaking of the way, by the way, the remote control, the feel of the remote control is quite good, but perhaps the joint venture brand prefers a sense of technology or a multi-functional operation, which greatly reduces the convenience of use and increases With the use of cost, so many keys do not even know what to do, this is really very tasteless, if Sony's remote control buttons can be as simple as a millet TV remote control is no better.

Quality / 4K

Of course, the appearance of the TV is good or not, and whether the system is easy to use is not as important as the display of the screen in my eyes. Downloaded a TV monitoring software in the built-in application store, it can help detect how the TV screen, through the bad spot monitoring, color detection, grayscale testing, afterimage testing to determine the merits of the screen. The following picture shows the white background detection of the dead pixels detection, in addition to the background color of green, red and blue solid colors, it is easy to see with the naked eye whether there are dead pixels or light leakage under various colors.

The following figure shows the color detection provided by the software. Its various colors are adjacent to each other. At a glance, the color conditions supported by this screen can be recognized. If the screen display quality is poor, vertical bars with different widths will appear. The photo below shows that the color transitions on this screen are very natural.

The software also provides a 4K TV resolution test chart, including text, line drawings, resolution tables, and block diagrams. 4K ultra high definition (resolution 3840×2160) and full HD (1920×1080) identification limits are indicated by red and blue arrows, respectively. Among them, the 4K in the various lines can distinguish the 1st in the finest, and the full HD can only recognize the 3rd. Through the playback test of this picture, the difference in resolution between the 4K ultra high definition television and the ordinary full HD television can be easily distinguished, and the 4K television can be fully displayed.

When sleeping and shutting down, the black screen panel of the TV is like a mirror.

Sony 4K LCD TV X9000F pays more attention to picture quality performance, using a direct-type LED backlight, X1 Extreme advanced chip and elite optical control PRO enhanced technology, but also the first to use the "X-Motion Clarity" Octavia dynamic optimization technology. The working principle of the LCD panel determines its high-latency feature, which causes smear when displaying high-speed motion pictures. In order to solve the problems, people have added motion estimation and motion compensation technology (MEMC) to televisions, inserting black frames between two normal frames, and reducing smearing. However, the MEMC will reduce the brightness of the TV. After the Sony 4K LCD TV X9000F adopts Octavia dynamic technology, it will automatically increase the backlight brightness when doing motion compensation, so as to reduce the smear, not reduce the brightness, and the picture is more clear.

For example, in these 4K static display photos, the nearby buildings and the distant peaks are clearly visible. The color reproduction is very good and looks very comfortable.

This picture shows that the color transitions of the image are natural, the dark details and layering are performed well, and the accurate color details and outstanding detail show a stunning three-dimensional effect.

For many years, Sony and China TV have had very good cooperation, so Sony TV can enjoy all its resources. The Sony X9000F pre-installed system is also Hua Digital TV, providing a variety of online content including movies, television dramas, news, variety shows, sports events, etc. for users to watch. Although 4K sources are updated on a weekly basis, there are 2500+ department of movie resources. However, for the 4K movies inside, ordinary users can only preview the first 10 minutes. They need to be purchased separately to watch the entire movie. From the iQiyi and Huaji’s built-in 4K resources, two of them were randomly watched. You can feel that 4K is actually better than ordinary 1080P HD video.

HDR is a very hot display technology today, but most manufacturers only use HDR as a gimmick. Only a handful of manufacturers can really show HDR displays. The new release of the X9000F series LCD TV application Sony's original dynamic direct type backlight system, combined with the X1 advanced version of the image processing chip and elite optical control PRO enhanced technology, independent control and optimization for each backlight area, which significantly enhanced HDR and Non-HDR content lighting effect, to achieve far beyond the performance of traditional LED-backlit TV.

Through the comparison of the following figure, we can see that the X9000F HDR dynamically reshapes the role of technology, making the picture sharp and transparent, it does not pursue bright colors, but to ensure high-quality color reproduction, the picture is more realistic and delicate. It's full of brightness and contrast, so the style of the picture is really conscience.

If you feel that the HDR experience in the film is not very deep, then the following two contrasts in the normal display interface can also clearly see their differences, and when the HDR is turned on, the grey background of the TV number TV looks more With metallic luster, more texture.

With HDR's 4K source turned on, people's hair can be clearly and clearly distinguishable, and the human skin color is closer to our actual skin tone.

Another common way to experience 4K HDR is PS4 Pro. PS4 can provide a higher level of screen and only supports HDR output. The PS4 Pro can achieve 4K resolution; on the other hand, many PS4 players are also Sony TV users or target users.

As the PS4Pro was temporarily taken away by a friend, it was only possible to experience HDR through the PS4, but the picture quality was 1080P, but the picture quality was still outstanding. Although the HDR effect of the game is not as good as the display effect of the test piece, the game can be set to artificially set a scene with a super light ratio, and the HDR experience is not weak. And the richer sense of hierarchy, high dynamic lighting makes everything in the game look more real, really a little naked 3D, immersive effect.

HDR gives people the most intuitive feeling that the bright place is bright, and the dark place is dark, like natural light, pursuing truth. In the HDR mode, the game's interface can see that the colors are true. But is it too wasteful to buy a TV to use the PS4 as a monitor?

The following comparison of the two switches in the HDR mode can also be clearly seen. After HDR is turned on, the display effect of the screen is closer to that in real life. For example, the sand blown up in the desert turns into a situation when the HDR is turned off. White.

Although the X9000F supports 4K resolution, Sony officials claim that the X9000F series will support HDR10, HLG, and Dolby Vision's Dolby VisionTM HDR format standards. But the cleverest woman is hardly a straw. Now the biggest problem is that the domestic 4K source is not too much, and the purchase and playback costs of 4K UHD Blu-ray are quite high. Of course, because it uses the Android system, it can be installed and used normally for TV or box applications on the market, and Sony does not restrict users from installing non-application third-party applications. Simply put the Android software with the suffix apk into a USB flash drive and plug it into the TV to install. It's very simple. And 4K resources that can also be downloaded through other channels are played on TV.

Sound quality

Slim body is difficult to have better sound quality performance, which has always been a major pain point for side-entry TVs, because the sound quality of speakers must be proportional to their volume, and most side-entry TVs have been pursuing slimness. It is difficult to insert high quality speakers. However, at the same time as Sony improved the picture quality, this time the Sony X9000F also made great efforts to improve the speaker performance. By listening to different styles of music and movies, you can experience the high-quality sound and excellent high and low bass sounds of the Sony X9000F's own speakers.

Of course, the final effect still needs to be heard. To be fair, the sound quality of the X9000F TV is not enough to be comparable to a serious sound and soundbar. For example, the sound pressure is not strong enough and the output power is not enough. But its advantages are good surround sound and rich sound details. Its own speakers make the sound presented by the TV very rich and very flattering. It is rare to have such a sound effect on such a thin and light TV.

Sony 4K LCD TV X9000F's own sound effects are fairly good, but with the TV together to the hands of the Sony home audio system HT-X9000F, if there is further requirements on the sound quality, then we must go to the store to audition, because the quality and The sound effects of this kind of thing can't really be felt. Only by watching and listening on the spot can you have in-depth experience. As mentioned earlier, the Sony 4K LCD TV X9000F continues the “Slice of living” design concept in its overall design. The foot bracket is extended to both sides for a more perfect placement effect, and the soundbar strip in the Sony Home Audio System HT-X9000F. Speakers are also designed specifically for the X9000F TV adapter.

This sound bar can be placed directly below the screen, and the sound bar Soundbar HT-X9000F perfectly matches the angle of the legs of the TV X9000F. While ensuring shocking sound effects, it further reduces the space occupied. Above the top of the soundbar there are five touch keys, the response is also very sensitive, to choose the source, sound adjustment, switch and other functions. The subwoofer is not big, the shape is more like a PC host, the subwoofer through the wireless connection to the host, this is absolutely praise, usually the most troublesome is the wiring, and the subwoofer in the material selection of wood materials.

Sound Bar supports Dolby Surround, and the latest audio format DTS:X. The audio system uses Sony's breakthrough Vertical Surround Engine technology. The front speakers of the two stereos can automatically create a 3D sound field. The combination of sound system and TV allows you to enjoy immersive sound effects while enjoying outstanding picture quality, bringing true home theater enjoyment. The HT-X9000F can be said to have a good balance between sound quality and volume. It is small, but its performance is not worse than the average household speakers. It also adds Sony's unique DSEE XX and virtual surround sound technology, whether it is watching movies or playing games. Or listening to songs, have a good effect.

to sum up

The overall experience of this TV and sound system is that everything is “just right” and even unexpected. The configuration and port of the TV set are also reasonable. , And support for 4K HDR, the use of X1 advanced version of the image processing chip and Advanced Optical Control PRO enhanced version technology, using direct type backlight system, in the dynamic optimization technology has also been a small upgrade. And Android's overall system is still very convenient, APP installation is convenient, the built-in player decoding capability is good, 4K film source plays smoothly; viewing experience is great, whether it is daily radio and television HD channels or TV boxes are very clear, not to mention 4K Source of the film. If you talk about cost-effective, he is still less than the domestic LeTV, Xiaomi. In addition, if you have to say what the disadvantages are, you feel that its thickness is really a little too big. Moreover, the remote controller is too complicated to be completely like a remote control that a smart TV should have. The last thing to be ridiculed is that the built-in Wahtman resources and the functions such as "video sharing" are not good enough. Although they can be solved with other software, they still hope that Sony can optimize them better.
