Sony TV owners will be pampered in the days and weeks to come as these popular TVs have a whole new look. The update, which has both new features and a redesigned look, is slowly rolling out around the world. The update, which brings devices with Android TV much closer to the new Google TV software that comes with the latest Chromecast set-top box, also provides an easier way to discover content.
Once installed, anyone using a compatible TV will see three new tabs: Home, Explore, Apps. These replace the old menu bar and should make it faster and more intuitive to find the shows that interest you most. Sony says the Explore tab contains new and exciting content with personalized recommendations based on your viewing history for a variety of streaming services.
There are also recommendations based on what you’ve seen in the past and your interests in your Google Account or on trending and popular content in your area. Finally, the bespoke suggestions are broken down into themes and genres, making it easier for you to find your next favorite movie or show.
