It gives the impression that companies are going by trends and now, that we live in the midst of a series maelstrom on platforms such as Netflix, Disney +, Prime Video, etc., some television manufacturers have been forced to take a role that has never been theirs. But as the classic said, “it’s happening and we have to tell it”, although in a few months we will return to remember that what they premiered has suddenly stopped making sense.
TV on demand and more
We have to remember where we come from. Sony, not too long ago, closed its content store, movies, etc. because basically no one used it, so he has looked from one side to the other, has seen what the competition is doing, such as Samsung (which has included a kind of television that mixes direct with video on demand in many of its Smart TVs), and has decided do the same to give it away to some of your Bravia customers who have their TVs for more than just playing with their PS5.
The result of that idea is Bravia Core, a service where we will essentially have a very extensive catalog of movies both modern and classic as well as rabid premieres that, it must be said, will not be completely free. That is to say, that in reality they are placing a video store for us but with some asterisks that you should know about. And it is that depending on the television model that we have, we will thus enjoy a greater or lesser period of free access to the service. In the same way, important releases will be arriving at Bravia Core that will have a cost but, as in the case of the unlimited service, we will have a maximum annual quota to redeem for free.
Now, do not think that this content will be the only claim since being Sony in the middle we will have other strengths to hold on to, such as technology. Which? Well, for example IMAX, a format to which some compatible premieres will arrive and with a broadcast quality defined by the Japanese as Pure Stream, which guarantees the best resolution, sharpness and visual experience we’ve ever tested, with 4K HDR movies at rates between 15 and 25 Mbps.
Compatible Sony models
As we tell you, the offer you can take advantage of will depend on the television model you have purchased (and not just the 2022 models). In this way, all those users who want to avail themselves of 12 free months of unlimited streaming on Bravia Core and five movies premiere to redeem throughout a year, they must have one of the following models:
- A80J
- A83J
- A84J
- X90J
- X92J
- X93J
- X94J
- X95J
- A75K
- A80K
- X82K
- X89K
- X90K
- X90S
- X95K
If, on the other hand, you want to have unlimited access to the streaming content for two years and up to ten redeemable movies both premiere and classic, then you must have one of the following Bravia Smart TVs:
- A90J
- Z9J,
- A83K
- A84K
- A90K
- A95K
- X92K
- X93K
- X94K
- X94S,
- Z9K
Finally, and in addition to those films, Bravia Core includes extras like the StudyAccess sectionwhich shows us documentary pieces on how some of the most important movies on the service have been filmed and which will be a mine of entertainment for those who, in addition to enjoying a good script, do so with a making of that reveals all the secrets of how one of those successes that we are so passionate about was filmed.
