Sony has officially launched its Personal 3D Viewer HMZ-T2 in India for Rs. 69,990. The head-mounted gear, which looks straight out of 90's sci-fi movies, is already available for pre-order at select Sony Experience Stores.

The Personal 3D Viewer HMZ-T2 comes with a bundled HDMIU cable and can be attached to any device with an HDMI out, be it an XBOX 360, a DVD/BLU-RAY Player or even a receiver. Interestingly, Sony has removed the built-in ear buds that the previous model shipped with, and swapped it out for a regular 3.5mm audio-out jack, making it easy for the user to use any headphone with the unit. The content being played was 1280x720p, which is the T2’s native display resolution.  The screens have a tru-cinematic 24p mode that will allow very smooth playback of 2D and 3D content.

We got to hear the audio over regular Sony in-the-ear buds and even at 1/4th the volume, the content sounded quite impressive. We turned on the virtual surround mode, but didn’t really notice much of a difference. The Personal 3D Viewer HMZ-T2 is up for pre-order at select Sony Experience Stores with an expected shipping date of sometime mid-November.
