Sony XH81
4K TVProduct Gallery




Product Overview
The XH81 is essentially an XH80 (X800H) with metal blade stand and a premium remote control; the two are otherwise identical. Available in select markets, it comes with a marginally higher MSRP.
For a full-array LED back-lit smart TV, Sony markets the X900H (XH90).
