Our new True RGB represents a breakthrough that combines the precision of individually controlled RGB LEDs with the best aspects of both Mini LED and OLED, giving viewers purer color, higher brightness, and picture accuracy that holds up in any room,” said Yoshihiro Ono, Head of Home Entertainment Business Unit, Sony Corporation.

While the Bravia 9 II is a more high end model. the two televisions do share a number of common features.

For example, and in addition to running on Google TV (with Gemini), both feature wide viewing angles, full range speakers, 3D Surround Upscaling, and an aesthetic design (including a wave‑textured bezel) that’s intended to ensure they fit into any space.

Both also come with support for Dolby Vision, Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, and IMAX Enhanced. This is in addition to Studio Calibrated modes for supported platforms, including Sony Pictures Core (formerly Bravia Core), Netflix, and Prime Video.
