Sony Expands Flat-Panel TV Line

From the press release:

The new KLV-S23A10 (23-inch) and KLV-S19A10 (19-inch) models signal the company’s growing emphasis on LCD-based flat-panel TVs. They join a flat-panel lineup that also includes the recently announced, top of the line QUALIA 005 model.

The QUALIA 005 is a LCD flat-panel television equipped with a Triluminos LED backlight system.  To compliment this new panel technology, the QUALIA 005 features Sony’s exclusive WEGA Engine HD system which can project real texture and true high-resolution quality of a High Definition (HD) signal. Using Sony’s proprietary HD-to-HD conversion algorithm, it re-creates standard and HDTV signals to the full HD (1920 x 1080) quality and widens the color gamut to maximize the advantage of Triluminos LED backlight system.  Together with a 100W S-Master full digital audio amplifier, the QUALIA 005 offers an incredible video and audio experience.  

With Sony’s two latest  high-definition LCD model introductions on top of both the QUALIA and six Sony LCD models currently available, the company is “clearly demonstrating the rapidly increasing demand for flat-panel televisions in screen sizes that are both big and small,” said Greg Gudorf, vice president of TV marketing for Sony Electronics. “These new models are just the start of a major LCD product expansion.”

Sony WEGA KLV-S19A10

The new KLV-S23A10 (23-inch) and KLV-S19A10 (19-inch) LCD televisions each feature a HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) connection, allowing the transfer of uncompressed digital signals to provide the best possible picture. These sets incorporate a high-performance, 1-chip video processor which integrates a 3D comb filter with a motion adaptive IP converter, improving picture contrast and detail while reducing video noise and image blur during fast action scenes.

Additional features included are the CineMotion® reverse 3:2 pulldown circuitry to provide a consistently smooth image and a Dynamic Picture

OLED TV Black Friday deals: LG, Samsung, and Sony
The LG B2 OLED 4K TV in a living room.

Whether you're a seasoned home cinema enthusiast or you're just building a high-end living room or basement theater for the first time, then an OLED TV is what you should be looking for. OLED, short for organic light-emitting diode, is a panel technology that forgoes traditional LED backlighting in favor of self-lit pixels that deliver superb color accuracy and unrivaled contrast. OLED TVs are considerably more expensive than their LED and QLED counterparts, however, so it's worth the time to hunt down a good discount. The best Black Friday deals are here to help you do just that, and so are we. Below, we've scooped up all the best OLED TV Black Friday deals available this week from top brands including LG, Samsung, and Sony.

LG makes a wide range of OLED TVs (it's the brand that pioneered OLED panel technology, after all), with the A2 series being aimed at budget-conscious buyers. Despite its reasonable price, the LG A2 OLED TV has some impressive features apart from its gorgeous OLED screen. It has Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa built right in, and it offers high dynamic range support for Dolby Vision, HDR10, and HLG. The WebOS software interface puts all of the top streaming apps at your fingertips and also features a built-in Game Optimizer that automatically adjusts the TV's settings for gaming.
