How Integrators Can Elevate Home Entertainment Installs with Sony’s BRAVIA 5 Mini-LED TV

Today’s home entertainment clients expect more than a big screen — they want true immersion, intelligent design, and seamless smart home compatibility—all wrapped in a design-forward display. Whether transforming a family room or building a luxury home cinema, clients want the best. And with Sony’s new BRAVIA 5 Mini-LED TV, integrators now have a powerful new tool to exceed those expectations.

Built on Sony’s signature innovation and engineered with professional-grade flexibility, the BRAVIA 5 is designed to deliver stunning performance while making life easier for custom installers.

Precision Meets Performance: XR Processor & Backlight Master Drive

At the heart of the BRAVIA 5 is Sony’s Cognitive Processor XR, which analyzes and enhances on-screen content in real-time, mimicking the way the human eye perceives depth and detail. Paired with the XR Backlight Master Drive, this Mini-LED display delivers exceptional contrast, dazzling highlights, and deep, inky blacks — all while maintaining lifelike colors.

The result? A picture that feels immersive and dynamic, even in challenging lighting conditions.

Notably, the BRAVIA 5 boasts six times the number of local dimming zones compared to last year’s X90L — a huge upgrade that gives integrators a next-level offering for clients seeking premium performance without stepping into OLED pricing.

Installer-Friendly Sizes from Living Rooms to Luxe Media Spaces

From modest living rooms to dedicated screening rooms, Sony understands that no two installs are the same. The versatile BRAVIA 5 lineup fits any environment with screen sizes ranging from 55″ to a show-stopping 98″.

The ultra-large 98” model is a standout for integrators looking to deliver the impact of a projector with the simplicity and brightness of a high-performance TV. No fuss with throw distance or ambient light — just a massive, brilliant picture that commands attention.

This wide range gives pros the flexibility to spec the BRAVIA 5 across multiple room types and budgets — from luxury builds to whole-home AV rollouts.

Seamless Smart Home Integration and Calibration

Custom control and system compatibility are crucial for pro installs. With Google TV™ as its platform, the BRAVIA 5 delivers a clean, intuitive interface and broad compatibility with streaming services, voice assistants, and third-party smart home platforms. It also supports IP control protocols, making it easy to integrate into control systems your clients already rely on.

Plus, it’s Calman Ready, allowing for exacting calibration that ensures content looks its best in every install — a major bonus for clients who value perfection.

With HDMI 2.1, the BRAVIA 5 supports 4K at 120Hz, Auto Low Latency Mode (ALLM), and Variable Refresh Rate (VRR), giving it gaming and high-frame-rate flexibility for tech-forward households.

Designed with Sustainability in Mind

Sustainability is no longer a nice-to-have — it’s a priority for many modern homeowners, and Sony is staying ahead of the curve with a focus on environmental responsibility. The Eco Dashboard empowers users to easily monitor and reduce energy use without sacrificing performance. For integrators looking to meet green home standards or clients who prioritize eco-conscious brands, this is a feature that speaks volumes.

A Partner for Pros: Sony’s Integrator Support

The BRAVIA 5 isn’t just built for consumers — it’s built with installers in mind.

Through Sony’s Custom Integration program, pros get access to a dedicated installer support line staffed by CEDIA-trained professionals, as well as documentation, product training, and integration tools. That kind of support can make a real difference on install day — and beyond.

Final Word: A Smarter Choice for Elevated Installs

The BRAVIA 5 Mini-LED TV is more than just a beautiful screen — it’s a smart, scalable solution for integrators who want to offer best-in-class visual experiences with the tools and flexibility to make installations seamless. With premium picture performance, extensive size options, and installer-first features, the BRAVIA 5 is a standout addition to any custom AV project.
