Sony deprecating features in some 2025 Bravia TVs

It's not the biggest set of things to deprecate, but it's upsetting to me that a big brand like Sony Bravia isn't worried about shutting down even minor features less than a year after a product that retailed for like $2000 is released.

Probably related to the January news that Sony sold Bravia to TCL, licensing the Sony name and tech: https://www.sony.co.jp/en/news-release/202601/26-0120E/

That’s an odd set of model numbers, though. It doesn’t include X95 but it does include A95 and Bravia always used A-$$$$ models to launch new stuff, which suggests that it was some sort of hardware architecture revision-step — probably with a new version of Google TV — and whatever they found was enough to make them say ‘fuck this noise’ and sell their TV division, which itself appears to be reacting similarly.
