Who has a telephone Android knows it well, but the problem also affects TVs: in the face of an operating system that it is constantly updated with different releases, it often happens that manufacturers do not release updated versions of the software dedicated to different devices .

Many TVs in consumer homes are now stuck in Android 8 , but the situation can change for owners of a large number of Sony TVs . The Japanese giant has in fact released the firmware update to version 6. 7140 which, among other things, brings as a dowry Android 9 Pie and the updated interface.

Here is the list of improvements introduced by the new version:

• Introduces settings menu redesigned and optimized (Android ?? 9 Pie)
• Combine Video, Album and Music apps into one app, Media Player
• Remove WPS function for added security
• Improve the responsiveness of the TV when switching on from standby mode
• Resolves a problem of no audio from a specific soundbar connected via HDMI ARC
• Enhance video playback in HbbTV applications
• Improve the Wi- function Fi
• Resolves the black screen display issue due to decoding of HEVC (High Efficiency Video Coding) format via TV tuner
• Add HEVC support 100 / 120 Hz in USB video playback

To update the firmware the simplest procedure is using the “Automatic software download” function in the menus on TVs connected to the network. Sony TVs still support update via USB, by downloading the necessary files via computer.

You can install the update if your TV belongs to the following TV list from 2016 to the 2019:
