We can see from the above parameters, HX555 equipped with BRAVIA ENGINE 3 image processing engine and Motionflow XR100 two technologies, plus a good impression of the Sony panel, I believe in the picture quality performance is good.

Appearance analysis

Sony HX555 base is curved rear bracket design, if viewed from the front, there is a feeling of vacant. Due to the relatively small screen size, the base will have a stable feel when compared. The base can be deflected by 30 degrees in the horizontal direction and the elevation angle can be changed by approximately 6 degrees. The design of the convertible position facilitates the viewing of relatively strict 3D content.

Sony HX555 backplane uses a less common white pearl back cover design, breaking the sensory impression of traditional LCD TVs, full of elegant temperament. The back of the fuselage can see the Sony HX555 can enjoy 250 yuan of government subsidies for energy-saving projects. It can be seen from the label that this TV has a power of 56W and is produced in Zhongshan City, Guangdong Province.

Sony HX555 fuselage interface is divided into side and back area, in fact, these two places are tied together, but the angle is different. The main interface includes 2 sets of HDMI and a set of USB interfaces, and the rest includes VGA analog and color component inputs.

The border is made of white engineering plastic edging, which is relatively rare on the TV. The TVs usually seen are mostly black backs. The front panel is filled with resin between the glass panel and the panel, which can effectively reduce the external reflected light. This is Sony's so-called black-eye panel.

On the front left corner is the indicator light. From left to right, the remote control's infrared receiving hole, timing wake-up warning light, standby indicator and work indicator light. Sony HX555 indicator light may be more than other TVs, but the size and brightness of the indicator light are appropriate, the user's interference when watching is relatively small, and usually only the right of the green light at work, subjective feeling It can be ignored. When the key of the remote control is pressed, the work light will flicker, giving feedback to the user's operation, which can sometimes prevent the user from thinking that the key has not been pressed.

The LOGO part of the bottom border is embedded metal texture, simple and without losing the atmosphere.

The ring-shaped rear Tibetan base design is the design highlight of the HX555, and it is difficult to detect the base from the right side. There is a illusion of vacancy. The surface is a polished plastic material.

2 quality data instrument test back to the top

We use the professional equipment of the evaluation room to conduct detailed tests on the Sony HX555. The test conditions are to adjust the Sony HX555 to the standard image mode, adjust the backlight brightness to the maximum, and make the indoor environment completely black. We will test the data record group below. In the table.

After a professional color analyzer test, we obtained that the color saturation of the HX555 is equivalent to 73.15% of the NTSC color gamut. This data is of medium level in LCD TVs. The average brightness is 127.83 cd/m2, taking into account the screen size and the user's viewing distance, enough for everyday use.

Panel pixel close up

The following is a close-up view of the HX555's LCD panel pixels. Through the macro lens, we can clearly see the shape and arrangement of the night pixels of the entire panel.

According to the above figure, we can easily find that the LCD panel of the HS555 is arranged like a fish scale and the IPS panel is used.

3 Grayscale/Color/Dynamic Test Back to Top

Grayscale test real shot

The first thing to explain here is that since the screen shot has been processed by the camera and then undergoes the necessary software processing and is affected by the actual effects of the netizens' displays, the screen finally displayed on the screen will have some effect on the actual TV. In and out, so the actual effect please refer to the author's text. The author used a Hi-Definition Reference Disc to test the picture quality of the TV. (Because of the different effects of different display devices, you can refer to the editor's main view method when you cannot judge the screen shot.)

The HX555 can display all 15 gray scales, and each gray scale has a large difference, and both dark and bright parts perform well.

For the black part of the display, not only can display well, but also in the dark details are very good, for the details of the highlights are retained.

Color test screen photo

The following shots of several sets of Blu-ray test disc screens related to color, HX555 is more true in color reproduction, maintaining Sony's always full warm color style, but there will be no color overflow problems.

Dynamic screen test:

In the performance of high-speed dynamic picture, Sony HX555 is relatively simple, there is no feeling of motion blur. This is inseparable from the Motionflow XR100 technology it uses.

43D screen display test back to top

The 3D display of Sony HX555 adopts a polarization type, and it is necessary to wear the supplied polarized glasses in use. In this test, we used a Blu-ray output 3D HD signal. The Sony HX555 can recognize 3D and prompt, but direct viewing has a ghost image. This is similar to a 3D movie in a movie theater.

Screen shot through 3D glasses

After wearing glasses, you can get a three-dimensional look and feel. When viewing a TV, the separation between the left and right eyes is still relatively high. The degree of separation between left and right will deviate, but after all, 3D viewing is usually a person's activity. Except when using 3D glasses, the resolution of the screen will be reduced to some extent. This is a problem with polarized 3D display. Fortunately, we do not have to look closely to observe this.

In the case of an input signal of 3D, the Sony HX555 can also switch between 3D picture display and 2D picture mode, which is an ordinary 2D picture. In this way, you can watch movies with 3D sources without glasses, but there is no stereo effect. At the same time support for ordinary 2D images, such as 2D video or ordinary TV program screen, after a certain algorithm to simulate the 3D screen, although the actual effect of a certain error, but still have some fun.

5 Photo Frame/Function Menu Back to Top

Electronic photo frame function trial

Because Sony HX555 supports USB media playback function, it can directly read the content on the mobile storage device through the USB interface on the left side of the camera. You can press the main menu in any interface to enter photo mode.

Supports folder browsing and a variety of formats for picture formats. Pictures can be rotated during picture playback, similar to most televisions.

A special feature of the picture display is the picture frame mode. Under this mode, pictures can be set to be played at a certain frequency, and music or FM tuner can be selected as background music.

The playback view is also adjustable. The picture below shows the frame mode display with calendar.

On the left is a calendar with a lunar calendar, on the right is a photo that is looping, and in the lower left corner is the current music playback.

Setting menu

Sony HX555 can set more options, in addition to conventional brightness contrast, there are noise reduction and MPEG noise reduction, color enhancement and so on. In addition, it also supports functions such as surround sound and parent-child locks, and timer switches.

6 Blu-ray HD/PConline evaluation room summary

In the high-definition video test section, the author tested the picture quality by playing a Blu-ray movie disc, and chose the documentaries “Microcosm”, “Fox and Me” and “King of War”. The first is the documentary "Microcosm," which is full of natural environments and rich in color.

The color of the HX555 is very bright and it is easy to please the eyes. The red overflow in the picture above is for the sake of camera shooting. The actual viewing is not so exaggerated, but the whole is still slightly heavy.

Xiao Bian felt that the HX555 was similar to Sony's high-end televisions in the past. It had a rich saturated color reproduction, and the color was warmer. The detailed interpretation of the dark part was better. At the same time, the motion picture is relatively simple and there is no fuzzy tail.

Editor's summary: Sony HX555 is a very obvious positioning product, 32-inch size TV on the one hand is a lot of income is not high families or working renters, capital and space conditions are limited, can only buy small-size products, another On the other hand, the middle- and high-income class who already owns a flat-screen TV will purchase a "second TV" for the bedroom and the study, and will consider the compact model.
