Brand review

SONY is a major player in the consumer electronics market.

Founded on May 7, 1946, the company SONY is primarily dedicated to the repair of electronic equipment. The company then ramps up and markets in 1955 the first radio receiver using only transistors.

Among the major inventions of the Japanese giant, let us quote the Walkman in 1979, which revolutionized the way of listening to music and foreshadowed the advent of the nomadic products that we know today.

Today, SONY is a major player in the 4K Ultra High Definition revolution, an image format that it masters from one end of the production chain to the other, from an image capture (camera) to broadcasting (4K UHD TV). Also for a more detailed Sony receiver comparison, it would be nice to mention that this Japanese firm is also involved in the production of large OLED screens for the general public and in multiroom audio systems with its SONY SongPal Link range.
