In 2017 Sony introduced a new 4K HDR OLED TV under the BRAVIA name offering customers more premium options when purchasing a TV. The BRAVIA OLED A1 series has been extremely well received by customers and reviewers thanks to its innovative One Slate design. This new form factor blends together exceptional picture quality with an OLED screen and immersive sound coming directly from the screen itself via the Acoustic Surface™ technology. Now, building on these innovations Sony expands the BRAVIA OLED line-up to deliver cutting-edge premium OLED TVs to a wider audience. The new AF8 series has inherited Sony’s unique 4K HDR picture processor-X1™ Extreme, and theAcoustic Surface technology to give not only high visual quality but awe-inspiring sound.

As an OLED TV, the AF8 series produces an incredibly detailed picture with deep blacks, rich and realistic colours and an exceptionally wide viewing angle. Utilising more than half a century’s worth of picture processing expertise Sony is able to precisely control the 8 million OLED pixels creating an unparalleled 4K HDR picture, while the Acoustic Surface technology allows the sound to come directly from the screen. By removing all visible speakers, the One Slate design concept means the user focuses solely on the picture.

The Sony AF8 series will support Dolby Vision, the HDR format from Dolby Laboratories. It creates an even more immersive, engaging cinematic experience with striking highlights, deeper darks and vibrant colours. To provide better user experience, Sony’s 2018 Android TV also works with smart speakers like Amazon Echo (UK only), Google Home (UK, France and Germany only) and Sony’s latest LF-S50G smart speaker (UK, France and Germany only), which enables users to hands-free control the TV.
