Using the BDV-S790 to make big-screen video calls via Skype is now a breeze with the unit’s built-in Wi-Fi. By simply setting up a video camera, chatting with faraway relatives and friends is made all the more easier and in the more comfortable setting of the living room.

Featuring Sony’s proprietary DLNA technology, home owners can also make the most of their favourite music, photos and movies stored on other Sony DLNA-enabled products such as its tablets and smartphones to effortlessly “throw” the content wirelessly to the BDV-S790 for enjoyment on a bigger screen or for more sound with its home theatre system.

The BDV-S790 is now available exclusively from all Sony stores and retails for S$499.
