Sony Electronics today announced a new BRAVIA W5100 series network LCD HDTVs that offer the same interactive functionality as the recently announced BRAVIA Z5100 and XBR9 models with full HD 1920 x 1080 progressive (1080p) resolution. This new W-series adds an economic HDTV option, while delivering the same interactive functionality as the recently announced BRAVIA Z5100 and XBR9 models.
The networked models feature an Ethernet connection so the sets can directly access Sony BRAVIA Internet Video content using an existing broadband connection. The service offers one of the largest selections of free and premium movies, TV shows, sports, music and more from an array of partners like Amazon Video On Demand, YouTube, Yahoo!, Sony Pictures, Sony Music and many others.
BRAVIA Internet Widgets, provided by the Yahoo! Widget Engine, expand and personalize the experience by allowing you to interact with your favorite Internet content like Yahoo News, Video, Finance, and Flickr while watching TV shows. Track your favorite sports team, check your stocks, and share photos with friends and family as you watch television.
The 52-inch KDL-52W5100, 46-inch KDL-46W5100 and 40-inch KDL-40W5100 (diagonal) models feature Motionflow 120Hz technology for improved sharpness and detail in fast-moving images. They also feature Sony’s BRAVIA Engine 3, which delivers a crystal clear picture even if the content isn’t perfect.
Sony presents also the HT-CT500 3.1 channel sound bar that is designed for the W5100 series. It will be available in June for $500.
