HDR is a key attribute here, as high dynamic range offers a significantly “punchier” picture than 4K alone. This TV’s specs place it among the absolute best in the market. The Sony X930D is certified Ultra HD Premium by the UHD Alliances, which is to say it is supposed to be among the most advanced televisions today offering HDR, Wide Color Gamut, and 4K resolution.

In the box with the TV, we received a single voice-activated remote control, batteries, TV stand with hardware, and a quick-start guide. Though its core is made of thick metal, it is covered up front with a faux brushed aluminum plastic faceplate, and in the rear with a swooping plastic cover with an outlet for cables. The X930D’s stand incorporates some of that cable management, as well.
Sure, most folks don’t spend a ton of time looking at a TV’s posterior, but unruly HDMI cables can detract from an otherwise clean-looking installation. The X930D sports a clever cable management system that yields a very clean look on the back of the TV if properly used. The bump adds about 15mm to the TV’s otherwise waifish 10mm profile at the top, but that doesn’t seem to take away from the TV’s presence as an ultra-svelte TV, sure to impress onlookers. Travel down the TVs back a bit and you’ll find the typical bump-out guarding all the TV’s processing guts. The X930D is a super-slim stunner of a TV - up top, at least. Toss in excellent processing with HDR and Wide Color Gamut capabilities, and you have one of the most desirable 4K TVs Sony has produced, and for way less than OLED. Considering nearly every TV reviewer on the face of the planet is so busy raving up and down about OLED, what else is an LED TV maker to do but step up their game? LED TVs needed more uniform brightness, better black levels, less halo effect, and less edge light bleeding, and Sony manages to deliver that with the X930D, in spite of its super-thin profile. Perhaps Sony’s move to this uber-thin TV with an inferior backlight system wasn’t so nutty after all. We saw an edge-lit Sony without the Slim Backlight Drive sitting right next to a model with it, and the difference was blatantly obvious. Whatever magic Sony has developed for its light-guide plate (the layer that spreads light from edge-mounted LEDs to every part of the screen) very clearly works. Sony claims its “Slim Backlight Drive” delivers the same capabilities in a thinner package, but we dismissed it as snake oil it until we saw it the first time in person. When we saw this year’s thinner models, we had to wonder: Was Sony now giving up performance in the name of a snazzy, ultra-thin look?

But they were big for good reason: full array LED backlights provide superior picture quality and the large speakers produced some of the best sound we’ve heard from a TV without a sound bar tacked on. Last year’s Sony TVs were thick and wedge-shaped, some with huge speaker systems tacked onto the sides.
