3D TV Area

The Sony Bravia NX810 is the latest offering from Sony in its segment of high end LED LCD 3D television sets, powered by the Bravia engine 3 processor. It will probably replace the NX800 now, which in fact was released only a few months back and is quite similar in characteristics except a few new ones of course. The NX810 sports the famous Sony Bravia monolithic design that is not only slim but simply beautiful to look at even when it is not on. The Motionflow technology on this television works better than the previous Bravia TV sets, but the improvement is mainly due to the 240Hz refresh rate, shared also by the NX800. Expect sharp pictures with least blurring while viewing 2D or 3D visuals. OptiContrast is a technology that Sony uses in its latest Bravia sets to provide deeper blacks than what other LCD TVs are capable of. Although the black levels are not as deep as is found in a plasma panel, they are quite good for an LED TV set. The ambient light sensor will control the brightness of the television to adjust to the lighting in the room, which will save your eyes from stress and also preserve power. Expect Full HD content to be played with top notch 2D and 3D quality as the NX810 is not behind in displaying Full HD content with vivid and colorful details, owing to the Dynamic Edge LED backlighting. The word is that the Sony Bravia NX810 will not be shipped with even a single 3D glass, which if true, is unfair to the buyers. If one decides to buy a $ 3000 television, he/she has the right to expect that the company will provide them with the minimum accessories necessary for 3D viewing on their expensive 3D TV.

As is the norm nowadays with the high end television sets, the NX810 comes preloaded with applications like Netflix, Facebook or Youtube to name a few. As far as connection to the internet is concerned, the Bravia gives you both the options of connecting to the net wirelessly via a Wi-Fi network as well as through a LAN or broadband connection through the Ethernet port. Other connectivity options include the standard 4 HDMI ports, PC in, RF and everything else that is found on new TV sets. Presence of only a single USB 2.0 port is a bit dissappointing though.

You will find the NX810 and all its features in detail on the website of Sony itself. The prices have come down a notch since it was unveiled this year, but you still would need almost three grand to bring home this technological marvel. If you can afford the Sony Bravia NX810 and are okay with the fact that you would need to spend an additional $ 150 for a pair of 3D glasses, then the NX810 can turn out to be a hit both for the sake of aesthetics and potential for performance in your drawing room.
