The 2015 Consumer Electronics Show (CES) officially kicked off Tuesday morning and Sony has already unveiled several upcoming products, including the thinnest TV ever made, as well as a revamped Walkman for more than $1,000.

Sony unveiled a lineup of 4K TVs, which not only utilizes the X1 4 processor that drastically improves resolution, color and dynamic range, but also comes in at a width of just 0.2 inches making it the thinnest TV ever made. To put that into perspective, Sony's new 4K TVs are thinner than an iPhone 6.

The lineup is apart of the XBR-65900 series, which offers 55, 65, and 75-inch models. When mounted, the bezels essentially disappear and the TV looks as if it was molded into the wall.

Additionally, Sony also seeks to bring back the popularity of the Walkman when the company unveiled its completely revamped music player device. However, consumers might be put off by the hefty $1,119.99 price tag that comes with it.

According to Sony, the new 128 GB Walkman NW-ZX2 "can reproduce master quality recordings just as the artists originally intended." On just one single charge, the music player is capable of up to 60 hours of listening time and over 30 hours of high-resolution video.

The device isn't available for consumers to purchase or preorder yet, but Sony plans to launch the new Walkman sometime during spring of 2015.
