XR-Powered Image Quality Features

The Sony A95L is packed with the company’s XR technologies, which aim to provide crystal clear clarity and deep and detailed colour production. The Cognitive Processor XR powers it all by adjusting the dynamic contrast and bringing out colors, replicating “how we see the real world.” This is backed with the fantastic QD-OLED display optimized to deliver a broad palette of shades and hues, inky deep blacks, and 200% more brightness than the previous series.

The Sony A95L Series also supports Dolby Vision, IMAX Enhanced, HDR10, and Netflix Adaptive Calibrated Mode to provide the best image quality possible for any content viewed on the display.

For SDR content with less-than-stellar image quality, the TV will deploy XR Clear Image technology to reduce noise, bring back lost detail, and use XR 4K Upscaling to get the content to near-4K resolution.

PlayStation-Centric Features

Thanks to the synergy between Sony and PlayStation, the A95L Series TVs feature native support for the PlayStation 5, and it will automatically optimize the best picture quality possible.

It also supports HDMI 2.1 features like 4K/120, Variable Refresh Rate (VRR), and Auto Low Latency Mode (ALLM) to provide high-performance gaming at maximum visual fidelity. The support for VRR is a crucial feature as it will allow you to play games (that support it) at their native 4K resolution with unlocked frame rates instead of using the Performance mode that usually down-grades visuals to maintain a high frame rate.

Additionally, the Sony A95L Series is the first television from Sony to feature the native PlayStation Remote Play feature, which allows you to play games directly from your PS5 even if it’s not connected to the television. However, note that the PS5 must be powered on and connected to a high-speed internet connection for the smoothest streaming quality.

Audio Quality and Surround

The Sony BRAVIA A95L Series TV sports a 20W + 20W + 10W + 10W speaker configuration and is powered by Acoustic Surface Audio+, which helps calibrate the precise sound location for an immersive experience. It also features Voice Zoom 2, which analyzes voices and improves clarity – perfect for poorly mastered movies or feature films by Christoper Nolan.

The TV also features XR Surround, which creates a virtual surround using just the TV speakers and is compatible with Dolby Atmos. What’s more, thanks to the Acoustic Center Sync, you can turn both your A95L and your soundbar into a center speaker to get an extra boost in sound quality and audio positioning.

Multi-Position Stand

The Sony A95L Series televisions can be positioned in two ways to match your needs. Thanks to its multi-point positioning system, the TV can be set to the standard low profile for immersive viewing or raised to accommodate a soundbar.
