Award WinnerHD Guru-Best of CES (2020)Video & TV: 8K category"The Z8H/ZH8's pictures are the most consistently impactful but also immersive we've seen from an LCD TV this year.""The Sony ZH8 or Z8H is the best LED/LCD television we've reviewed in 2020."Top 3 featuresMore screen. More 8K detail. More beauty.

Our powerful processor brings out the intense depth and detail of this 8K TV, no matter what you're watching. See deeper blacks and brighter lights on a Full Array LED TV screen with local dimming.

Sound and picture in harmony-the frame is the speaker

Hear sound from the right place in the scene with speakers integrated into the frame. Having the speakers closer to the center of the screen brings sound and pictures into harmony.

Big screen, designed for immersion

With its minimalist one-slate design and thin bezel, this 8K LED TV brings home the big-screen 8K experience. Be totally immersed in your entertainment without distraction.

Extraordinary resolution, whatever you're watching

Any kind of content can be upconverted to lifelike 8K resolution with Sony's unique features. Our Picture Processor X1 Ultimate, twice as fast as the X1 Extreme, precisely analyzes and processes data to power 8K pictures with four times the resolution of 4K for scenes rich in depth, texture, and detail. Even images filmed in 4K and 2K are upscaled close to 8K by 8K X-Reality PRO using a unique 8K database. Resolution of each subject is then optimized by Object-based Super Resolution to reproduce virtually real world textures.

Believe in true contrast, precisely controlled

Generating brightness on an 8K panel can be difficult due to its low transmission rate. This 8K TV precisely balances light output across the screen to ensure scenes are full of breathtaking contrast. With zones of LEDs lit independently, Full Array LED provides more realistic contrast by making light areas lighter and dark areas darker. Contrast is further enhanced by 8K X-tended Dynamic Range PRO, which adjusts brightness for higher peaks in glare and deeper blacks in shadow.

Extraordinary resolution, whatever you're watching

Any kind of content can be upconverted to lifelike 8K resolution with Sony's unique features. Our X1(TM) Ultimate, twice as fast as the X1(TM) Extreme, precisely analyzes and processes data to power 8K pictures with four times the resolution of 4K for scenes rich in depth, texture and detail. Even images filmed in 4K and 2K are upscaled close to 8K by 8K X-Reality(TM) PRO using a unique 8K database. Resolution of each subject is then optimized by Object-based Super Resolution to reproduce virtually real-world textures.

Believe in true contrast, precisely controlled

Generating brightness on an 8K panel can be difficult due to its low transmission rate. This 8K TV precisely balances light output across the screen to ensure scenes are full of breathtaking contrast. With zones of LEDs lit independently, Full Array LED provides more realistic contrast by making light areas lighter and dark areas darker. Contrast is further enhanced by 8K X-tended Dynamic Range(TM) PRO , which adjusts brightness for higher peaks in glare and deeper blacks in shadow.

Reproduces a wider, more precise range of colours

By widening the colour spectrum, TRILUMINOS powered by our X1 processors reproduces more colours than a conventional television. It analyzes and processes data in every image to make colours even more natural and precise so pictures are closer than ever to real life.

Beautiful colours from all sides

Watching TV from the sides is now as satisfying as from the centre. Sony's original optical design to control light from the backlight, the X-Wide Angle panel ensures colours stay true from wherever you're watching.

Making fast-moving scenes bright and clear

On some screens, sports and fast action scenes can seem to go by in a blur. Our latest X-Motion Clarity(TM) technology keeps everything smooth, bright and clear. Each 'blink' is individually controlled and its duration optimized, while brightness is boosted when needed, so you won't miss a thing.

Super Bit Mapping HDR

There are thousands of tones, shades and gradations of light in a sunset. Super Bit Mapping HDR reveals them. It creates smooth, natural 8K TV picture quality as you watch, without the "banding" that can occur on other TVs.

Object-based HDR remaster

With Object-based HDR remaster, the colour in individual objects on screen is analysed and the contrast adjusted, unlike most TVs where contrast is only adjusted along one black-to-white contrast curve. Because objects are remastered individually, this TV can reproduce greater depth, textures and more realistic pictures.

Dual database processing

One database is used to clean the picture, reducing on-screen noise. The other is used to upscale the resolution, improving clarity. These two powerful image improvement databases work together, dynamically improving pixels in real time. Each database has tens of thousands of references, amassed from our experience creating content for TV and movies over the years.

Hear sound from the right place in the scene

Sound on conventional TVs with a speaker located below the screen is often out of sync with the picture. Our Acoustic Multi-Audio(TM) includes a vibrating frame tweeter, a speaker that enables sound to follow the action for a truly immersive experience. Independent amps are controlled separately to precisely manage sound positioning of this speaker in high tone areas, enhancing sound pressure and stability for more realism.

TV centre speaker mode: The centrepiece of breathtaking sound

Use your BRAVIA as a centre speaker and hear dialogue, vocals and instruments with exceptional clarity. Simply connect your home theatre system to unleash an immersive cinematic experience.

Enjoy multidimensional sound with S-Force Front Surround

Hear sound as you would from a separate multi surround speaker. By upconverting inputs, S-Force Front Surround virtually reproduces a multi surround speaker system within your TV so you can enjoy all the thrills of more immersive sound.

Clearly hear voices

With Voice Zoom, you can hear human speech clearly without having to turn up the volume-ideal for news bulletins and documentaries.

Power your soundtracks

With a subwoofer integrated into the rear of the TV, you'll hear more dynamic, bass-heavy sound-ideal for action movies and music.

Supreme picture quality and sound, whatever the environment

Sit back and enjoy the best possible viewing experience. Sony's unique ambient optimization technology automatically adjusts picture and sound to your environment.

One-Slate design concept

Our slim and simple one-slate design keeps you focused on the screen while blending harmoniously in any room environment.

Narrow bezel

Keeps you focused on the picture, not the television.

Discrete stand, dual position

Our noise-less stand sits discreetly on a shelf and won't compromise your viewing experience. With wide and narrow settings, you can use it on large or small shelves.

Cable clutter minimized

A concealed cable track keeps wires neatly hidden so your television stays free of clutter and looks good from the front, the sides and the back.

Say what you want to watch, no remote required

With Google Assistant built in and advanced voice control, Sony's Android TV makes life smart and simple. Find new entertainment, check schedules and control your home, just by talking to the screen.

Clear Phase for smooth, balanced frequencies

BRAVIA(R) uses a powerful computer model to analyse and compensate for inaccuracies in speaker response. It does this by 'sampling' the speaker frequency with higher precision. This information is fed back to cancel out any peaks or dips in the speaker's natural response-resulting in pure, natural audio with smooth, even reproduction of all frequencies.

Preserving the passion of the creators

To address colour variations from the production process, this TV is ready to use Portrait Displays' high-performance Calman auto-calibration software. This allows an unprecedented level of calibration and the ability to fine-tune adjustments simply not possible through conventional picture settings. It delivers high-fidelity colour reproduction that's true to the original TV signal, and can even adapt to the subtlest changes in colour that may occur over time. This TV is Calman Ready, allowing customers to benefit from software used by visual creators in post-production quality-control workflows, further demonstrating our commitment to deliver pictures with professional-grade-colour-calibrated accuracy in the home.

Watch what you love, control it with your voice

You can ask your TV with the Google Assistant to connect and communicate with your smart devices including security cameras and appliances, no remote required. It's truly effortless and offers the ultimate hands-free experience.
