Thanks to the positive reaction we received for our 2015 Sony 4K TV screen size and feature guide, I decided to put together a similar piece for Sony’s non-4K TVs. While at CES 2015 most of the talk and glory went to Sony’s 4K lineup which also gained some of the most cutting edge features and enhancements, Sony didn’t forget about those who wish to stick with HD 1080p – offering units like the 75-inch W850C with Android TV.
After the jump, we have the US and European 2015 Sony HDTV screen size and features breakdown to give you a better idea about this year’s lineup.

- 50-inch (KDL-50W800C)

- 75-inch (KDL-75W850C)
Features & Notes:

Please note that the W800C and W850C are likely the only new HDTVs headed for the US. Those in Europe will enjoy a few more models which will be outlined below, including the W805C and W855C, which are a slightly different variations from the US W800C and W850C. I’ll update this article as more information becomes available.
