KD-49XD8305 Processor Question

[Lazaros_K]

Hello community!

I am really interested at the KD-49XD8305, and correct me if im wrong but its a 2016 model? Anyway, isnt the 4K X-Reality Pro processor old? Why doesnt it have the X1 HDR 4K processor? How is the picture quality, i would really appreciate it, as im new to the Sony TV World. (Comming from a Philips 32PF9996/37 )

 Any feedback would be nice. 

Thank you.

Hi there

The KD-49XD8305 TV is indeed a 2016 model.

I am unsure why Sony chose to use the X-Reality Pro processor over the X1 - but I can only assume its to do with cost.  The XD83 series TV sits at the budget end of Sony's range of 4K TVs, hence to meet certain price points something needs to give.

A good write up on what these processors do, see:

In regards to this TV, I would suggest reading a few reviews on the internet.

Cheers
