Sony launches ‘Freeview HD’-ready LCD TV line
May 8, 2008 – 5:45 am
With the UK launch of terrestrial HD pencilled in for 2009, Sony has jumped onto the bandwagon and unveiled a Bravia LCD TV series featuring an integrated MPEG 4 AVC HD-capable tuner.
The 26in, 32in and 37in models in the V4500 series each have one of the tuners that let you watch HD TV programmes over Freeview – a service that will roll out first in the Granada region next year and across all of England by 2012.
Each V4500 model has a native resolution of 1366 x 768 - so 1080p and 1080i content will be downscaled to 720p.
They have a 178° viewing angle which is complemented by a swivelling stand that should help to guard against neck strain. /reghardware.co.uk
