Bravia (stylized as BRAVIA) is a brand of Sony Visual Products Inc.,[1] a wholly owned subsidiary of Sony Corporation, and used for its television products. Its backronym is "Best Resolution Audio Visual Integrated Architecture". All Sony high-definition flat-panel LCD televisions in North America have carried the logo for BRAVIA since 2005. BRAVIA replaces the "LCD WEGA" which Sony used for their LCD TVs until Summer 2005 (early promotional photos exist of the first BRAVIA TVs still bearing the WEGA moniker).

Bravia televisions and their components are manufactured in Sony's plants in Mexico, Japan, and Slovakia for their respective regions and are also assembled from imported parts in Brazil, Spain, China, Malaysia and Ecuador. Principal design work for BRAVIA products is performed at Sony's research facilities in Japan, at the research and development department at the Sony de Mexico facility in Baja California, Mexico and at the Sony Europe facility in Nitra, Slovakia.

La marca también se utiliza en teléfonos móviles en los mercados norteamericano, japonés y europeo. [2]

Internals[edit]

The LCD panels within BRAVIA TVs are manufactured by Sony Corporation with a special architecture. Since 2010, the high end Bravia LX, HX and selected NX series use a 10th gen Sony Bravia ASV panel.[citation needed] The 8th gen SPVA panel from Sony LCD continue to serve other midrange and budget Bravia models.[citation needed]

Many Sony televisions with USB connectivity run Linux.[24]

Upgrading and maintenance[edit]

The software can be upgraded via a USB type A interface labeled "DMEx / service only" and via the Internet for later models.

2006–2007 models may be updated using a memory stick or USB. Depending upon the country and TV standard the tuner may need a service device to update it.

It appears that units manufactured through November 2005 for sale in Asia and North America contained a software bug that prevented the device from powering up/down after 1200 hours.[25] A free upgrade is available.[26]

Uses and features[edit]

  • Can be used to watch live TV
  • Can stream original contents from streaming apps
  • It is supported by Dolby audio
