Sony LED BRAVIA TVs to Be Announced in September

Sony X5500 LED TVs are set to launch September or October this year and are expected to be exhibited for the first time on the big consumer electronics fair IFA 2009 in Berlin this September.

According to the FlatpanelsHD site, X5500 will feature a LED backlight with local dimming, which means that LEDs are located behind the LCD panel and can be controlled in a number of zones, just like on the Philips LED Lux model.

Unlike the X4500 series, the so-called RGB LEDs in different colours will be replaced with white LEDs on X5500. It can save production costs, and given the fact that X4500 do not take advantage of the full potential in RGB LEDs, it seems a sensible disposition.

Other expected features of the sets are:
DLNA (client Photo, Music, Video)
Motion Flow 240 Hz
BRAVIA® Internet Video
BRAVIA® Internet Widgets
LightSensor™ Technology and Idle TV Standby
Internet Radio

Sony XBR line will be available in 40, 46 and 55-inches (65 inch model was also rumored). Pricing will be announced later.
