The following is a list of Bravia television products manufactured by Sony. In 2005 they discontinued their previous "WEGA LCD" line, and all Sony televisions are now known as Sony Bravia. Starting in 2013, the model year is encoded in a letter of the alphabet, so all 2015 models have a letter "C" in their name.
BRAVIA replaces the "LCD WEGA," which Sony used for their LCD TVs until summer 2005 (early promotional photos of the first BRAVIA TVs still bearing the WEGA moniker). [1] In 2014 (on the part of Sony President and CEO Kazuo Hirai 's plans to turn Sony around), BRAVIA was made into a subsidiary rather than simply a brand of products.

Sony has also used WEGA as a name for flat-screen televisions with newer technologies than CRT. Their flat-panel LCD televisions were branded LCD WEGA until summer 2005 [7] [8] [9] when they were rebranded BRAVIA. There are early promotional photos of the first BRAVIA televisions still bearing the WEGA label.
Sony also introduced their Plasmatron displays, and later LCD as well, but these had no inherent technical advantages over similar sets from other companies. From 2006, all of Sony's BRAVIA television products are LCD displays, initially based on screens from Samsung, and later Sharp. [25]
Edge-LED lighting for LCDs allows thinner housing; the Sony BRAVIA KLV-40ZX1M is 1 cm thick, and others are also extremely thin. [citation needed] LED-backlit LCDs have longer life and better energy efficiency than plasma and CCFL LCD TVs. [35] Unlike CCFL backlights, LEDs do not use mercury in their manufacture, which is an environmental ...
