Sony KDL-55HX729 Specification Guide

Goodbye wires, hello built-in Wi-Fi®.

Maximize your entertainment while reducing cable clutter. Wirelessly stream beautiful, HD

entertainment straight from the internet or your home network using built-in Wi-Fi® connectivity.

Go way beyond cable.

Welcome to the endless entertainment of the Sony Entertainment Network, where thousands of

movies, TV shows, online videos, games and music are always at your fingertips. By connecting to

the Internet you can access Full HD 1080p entertainment, 3D content

and made-for-TV apps like

Netflix®, Pandora®, YouTube™, Facebook® and more.

All devices, together as one.

Don’t all of your personal photos and videos deserve the big screen? Experience your content on

a grand scale simply by connecting your compatible smartphone, computer or Sony Tablet™ S

via your existing Wi-Fi® network. Then you can easily “throw” your videos, photos and music files

to your HDTV.

Life-sized video calls.

It’s like they’re in the room with you. Skype® video calls bring your family and friends closer than

ever as they appear as large as life on your big screen—for free.

Just connect the easy-to-use

Skype camera (sold separately) for a face-to-face look at the caller on the beauty of your Sony

HDTV.

Control your TV with your phone.

Now there’s one less remote control on the coffee table. Just download the free Media

Remote™ app and turn your iPhone®, Android™ phone or Sony Tablet™ S into a versatile remote

control with a full QWERTY keyboard

. It makes changing channels and typing searches ultra fast

and convenient.

Turns off when no one's watching.

We all forget to turn the TV off sometimes. A built-in motion sensor turns the picture off if no

movement is detected, leaving only sound. Still no movement? It turns the TV completely off,

saving energy when you're not around. Very smart.

Wi-Fi® without a router.

Sometimes your friends want to share their personal photos and videos on your beautiful HDTV.

With Sony’s Wi-Fi Direct™ Mode, your friends can throw personal content to your TV without

connecting to your home network. Wi-Fi Direct completely bypasses the Wi-Fi access point/

router, so it’s easy to set up.

A sense for songs.

What’s that song in the TV show, movie or commercial you’re watching? Press ‘TrackID’ on your

remote and get the song name and artist instantly.

You can also start the TrackID® service by

shaking a smartphone that’s running the Media Remote™ app.

Very convenient.

Save power, save money.

Enjoy lower energy bills with reduced power consumption of up to 30% while maintaining

beautiful image quality with Eco Drive technology. It automatically reduces power consumption

while boosting color and detail on the screen and conserving energy used by the backlight.

Onboard manual.

You will never lose your TV manual again. The iManual is available through the menu system on

the TV – always there if you need it.

Find it fast.

Searching for shows and music on your TV is so simple. Just press ‘GUIDE’ on your remote and

see what’s on and what’s coming up with a handy image to go with it. You also get an episode

synopsis, cast and crew details and suggestions to related shows, on-demand movies and Blu-ray

Disc™ titles.

Finding music is also a cinch. Music Search with the TrackID® button cleverly recognizes the

melody of the music playing on your TV. Want to go further? Search to find more songs by the

same artist and other related web content. Share your discovery with the world via Twitter™.
