Sony's new Bravia 9 II elevates RGB backlight technology, showcasing a refined True RGB system that delivers remarkable visual performance. This flagship television, starting at $3,599.99, achieves peak HDR brightness of 3,903 nits, significantly surpassing its predecessor.
Its advanced backlight system provides OLED-rivaling black levels and exceptional color vibrancy, making it ideal for bright rooms due to its elite anti-reflective coating. Gaming performance is fluid with a low input lag of 9.8 milliseconds, a notable improvement over previous models.

Running on Google TV, the Bravia 9 II offers a user-friendly smart interface with AI integration and access to numerous streaming channels. The remote control is a highlight, featuring motion-sensitive backlighting and customizable shortcut keys for enhanced usability.
