Product introduction

The KD-75XD9405 is a 75-inch TV with a 4K screen resolution. This TV supports HDR playback, Android TV system, and high quality LED backlight board.


Design and function

The first impression of the Sony KD-75XD9405 TV is "Big", which is suitable for watching movies, especially Hollywood action movies.

What is rare is that the size of the KD-75XD9405 TV is large, but it is not bulky. Its border is only 1cm, which is almost contrary to the laws of physics. However, everyone does not have to worry about the quality of the KD-75XD9405, because the experience of Xiaobian is very strong.


KD-75XD9405's appearance is very beautiful, it uses a "plate" type bracket design, frame and bracket are made of sheet metal, the middle of the surrounding frame is a root golden decoration, it is very fashionable.

The exterior design should be the brightest point of the KD-75XD9405 TV. Unfortunately, this excellent design is at the expense of some features. Simply put, the KD-75XD9405 cancels the "gigantic" magnetic fluid speaker system used in its predecessor, the KD-75X9405C.

Admittedly, the sound of the KD-75XD9405 is also good, but compared with the KD-75XD9405C, there is a kind of "regular" feeling. Perhaps Sony is the person who wants to buy this TV and can go with an independent audio system without paying too much money.


Ports and systems

Let us be slightly pleased that the KD-75XD9405's port configuration is fairly rich. It is equipped with 4 HDMI ports, 3 USB ports, LAN combined WiFi port.

The KD-75XD9405 is equipped with an Android TV operating system and integrates the Internet TV service YouView. However, with Xiao Bian's view, Android TV is pre-installed with too many applications, the interface is too cumbersome, coupled with the lack of customization, so the practicality has yet to be improved. In contrast, YouView is more likable.


There are good hardware and display effects, of course, with a rich content resources, the combination of software and hardware can play the greatest value of a TV. In terms of content, it is recommended to install a sofa butler - the sofa butler is a third-party app store designed specifically for smart TVs, Android box users, carefully providing television, box users with high-quality television exclusive version of the application, including with live Or on-demand video and audio and video software, various types of recreational competitive video game software and daily office entertainment management system management tools. Users can refer to the tutorial: Sony TV Universal Tutorial Installation Method Install Sofa Manager to extend third-party applications.


Image technology

The picture of the KD-75XD9405 is amazingly amazing. In order to achieve this amazing picture quality, Sony has used several of the most advanced image technologies.

The KD-75XD9405 TV is equipped with an LCD panel with LED lighting and integrates HDR into the panel. Simply put, Sony uses two light guides in the KD-75XD9405 TV to increase screen brightness. And compared to other light guides, the light guide used by the KD-75XD9405 TV offers twice the brightness.

In addition, KD-75XD9405 TV also integrates Sony's latest Triluminos technology. Triluminos can display a wider color gamut and complement HDR. Benefiting from the above technologies, Xiaobian is pleased to find that the KD-75XD9405 TV can provide excellent HDR performance.

In addition, the KD-75XD9405 TV also supports native 4K Ultra HD video playback and 3D capabilities. With the built-in X1 video processor newly developed by Sony in 2015, the color and 4K picture quality of the KD-65XD9305 TV have been further improved.


Settings

With the help of a large number of presets provided by Sony, the setting of the KD-75XD9405 TV is very simple. However, if the user's home happens to have an Ultra High Definition Blu-ray player, then things get trickier.

The KD-75XD9405 does not automatically search for HDR signals when it is turned on, so the user must go to “Settings” and find “External Input” to change the signal source from “Ultra High Definition Blu-ray” to “Enhanced Mode”.

In addition, the setting of the KD-75XD9405 TV is very simple. Xiao Bian strongly recommends that users turn off the noise reduction system of the TV, and do not choose special brightness or excessively increase the color saturation, and set the “sharpness” and “super resolution resolution” between 30%-35%. .

Quality

The Sony KD-75X9405C was once Xiaobian's favorite TV, but it was very attractive after reading the KD-75X9405. Regardless of design or performance, KD-75X9405 did not disappoint Xiaobian.

The KD-75X9405 presents a full-fledged 4K HDR picture with vivid colors. The best part is that the detailed processing of the 4K HDR is very fine, and sometimes it even brings a three-dimensional effect. The LED lighting system, local dimming, and Sony's unique combination of sophisticated light control technology have made the KD-75X9405 TV an exceptionally beautiful picture, making Xiaobian shocked.


It is worth mentioning that, in the HDR picture, the brightness and color saturation of the KD-75X9405 TV is not as extreme as the Samsung UE55KS9000, and there is no Panasonic 65DX902. However, Xiao Bian prefers the perfect HDR picture displayed on the KD-75X9405 TV.

There is a problem here. In HDR mode, if there is strong light shining on the KD-75X9405 TV, glare will appear on the TV screen. However, people do not have to worry about it. The problem of glare is extremely rare, so it will have little impact on user experience.

3D picture quality

So far, there is no TV energy saving effect to achieve excellent 3D effects, Philips, Samsung's new high-end TVs this year have given up 3D capabilities.

The Xiaobian is pleased that the Sony KD-75X9405 TV's 3D effect is actually very good. In 3D mode, KD-75X9405 TV picture brightness, color, contrast and shadow details, make Xiaobian impressive.

Of course, the picture of the KD-75X9405 TV in 3D mode certainly does not look good on the 4K HDR, and the crosstalk ghosting problem is also more serious.

Sound quality

According to Sony, the KD-75X9405 uses four 7.5W speaker systems that are compatible with the XD9305 series. Although this speaker system is not too advanced, it sounds better than the KD-65XD9305 TV. The KD-75X9405 TV's treble will not be distorted, and the midrange and bass details will be satisfactory.

Of course, the sound of the KD-75X9405 TV certainly does not use the KD-75X9405C which is a magneto-fluid speaker system. This is a compromise that Sony has to make to achieve a slim TV body.

Other factors to consider

The Sony KD-75X9405 comes with the same remote control as the XD9305. The remote uses a flat key design, which means the keys are only slightly raised on the surface of the remote control. This kind of design looks cool, but it is very inconvenient to use. When it is used, it often appears inadvertently or it needs continuous pressing to select.


The good news is that the game screen on the KD-75XD9405 is very nice because of the impressive color and contrast. At the same time, the input delay of the KD-75XD9405 is only 30 seconds, which means that the game is still running smoothly.

Is it worth buying?

It is clear that the Sony KD-75X9405 is the best TV product. If your living room is big enough and you are not short of money, putting such a TV in your home will increase your taste instantly by several levels.

In a nutshell, the Sony KD-75X9405 is the best TV that Xiaobian has seen this year. So what are you waiting for?

SCHOTTKY

The Schottky Diode is another type of semiconductor diode which can be used in a variety of wave shaping, switching and rectification applications the same as any other junction diode. The main adavantage is that the forward voltage drop of a Schottky Diode is substantially less than the 0.7 volts of the conventional silicon pn-junction diode.

Schottky diodes have many useful applications from rectification, signal conditioning and switching, through to TTL and CMOS logic gates due mainly to their low power and fast switching speeds.


the Schottky Diode also known as a Schottky Barrier Diode is a solid-state semiconductor diode in which a metal electrode and an n-type semiconductor form the diodes ms-junction giving it two major advantages over traditional pn-junction diodes, a faster switching speed, and a low forward bias voltage.

The metal–to-semiconductor or ms-junction provides a much lower knee voltage of typically 0.3 to 0.4 volts compared against a value of 0.6 to 0.9 volts seen in a standard silicon base pn-junction diode for the same value of forward current.

Variations in the metal and semiconductor materials used for their construction means that silicon carbide (SiC) Schottky diodes are able to turn [ON" with with a forward voltage drop as little as 0.2 volts with the Schottky diode replacing the less used germanium diode in many applications requiring a low knee voltage.
