Sony Active 3D Glasses

These glasses use Bluetooth technology to pair directly with your television. Once paired, they maintain a stable, synchronized connection to ensure the active shutter lenses switch in perfect timing with your screen's refresh rate.

These glasses are compatible with a broad range of Sony 3D-ready models, including the XD94, XD93, W80C, W85C, X85C, and X9500B series. We recommend checking your specific TV model number against your manual to confirm it supports active shutter 3D technology before purchasing.

Active shutter glasses, like this pair, use battery-powered lenses that rapidly alternate between clear and opaque states to create a 3D effect. Passive glasses use polarized lenses and do not require power, but they typically offer lower resolution compared to the full-HD experience provided by active shutter systems.

Yes, because these are active shutter glasses, they require power to operate the lens mechanism. Please ensure you have the appropriate batteries on hand, as they are necessary to maintain the synchronization required for 3D viewing.

The design of these glasses is generally intended to be worn on their own. While some users may be able to fit them over smaller frames, they are not specifically engineered as 'over-the-glasses' eyewear, so comfort may vary depending on the size and shape of your prescription glasses.
