Also on the way from Sony is its line of A8H OLED 4K HDR TVs, which are sold under the Bravia name. Featuring 2.1 channel sound, these TVs are also compatible with Alexa, Apple HomeKit and Airplay 2. 

The 65-inch model goes for $3,099.99, with the 55-inch TV having a listed price of $2,299.99. Both are available for preorder now.

The 85 and 49-inch models are available to buy now at Amazon and Best Buy, while the other three are available now for preorder. 

The next line below is Sony’s X900H 4K HDR LED TVs. Also featuring the Amazon and Apple capability, these come in 55, 65, 75 and 85-inch sizes, retailing respectively at $1,199.99, $1,599.99, $2,499.99 and $3,499.99.

Techradar wrote of Sony’s 2020 TV line that while “it’s looking like Sony’s TV lineup is more of a continuation of last year’s lineup than a bold, new vision for TVs, but we’re still excited for the TVs coming our way this year.”
