hi i'm ty pendlebury from cnet com and i'm here with sony's first 4k television it's called the xbr 84 x 900 and it's going to be available in stores this year sometime we don't have pricing as yet but that's going to be announced in eight days at cedia what we're looking at as far as europe's concerned it's around the 25 thousand euro mark so expecting something very similar here so what 4k is it's a new consumer format it's based on what you see inside the cinemas what you get is 3840 pixels along here and 2160 pixels down here now at the moment there isn't much 4k format material available what you have is a 4k channel on YouTube and you also have one movie that's been released on hard drive which you can buy as well but no consumer format yet although that is supposedly coming now this is an edge-lit set which means that the LEDs are along the side and it's also a 3d passive television which means you use a set of passive glasses and it reduces the resolution 24 K 1 K which is also a new format this is a stereo TV so you have two speaker sets either side it's a 10 driver system and what makes this a 4k television is it actually has an upscale ur inside called the x-reality pro 4k which upscales normal content for example HD which is 1920 x 1080 content to 2k which is a little bit higher than has another upscaler to upscale left to 4k so look out for more details on cnet com on this new television very soon
