Specifications and Features

Bring true 4K HDR entertainment to your home with the VPL-XW5000ES, a native 4K laser projector with 2,000 lumens of high brightness and a compact, cost-effective design. Our newly developed technologies, including the all-new Native 4K SXRD panel, deliver wide dynamic range, high resolution and vivid colours, even if you’re watching in a well-lit space.

2,000-lumen laser light source  

Savour the action with up to 2,000 lumens of high brightness, generated by a long-lasting laser light source, for vibrant images even on a large screen.

All-new Native 4K SXRD™ panel  

Immerse yourself in an incredibly lifelike picture with native 4K that offers 8.3 million pixels (3840 x 2160). With an all-new 0.61-inch SXRD panel, you’ll enjoy high brightness, inky blacks, vibrant colours, rich tones and textures plus clear cinematic motion and image smoothness.

Our new Wide Dynamic Range Optics contribute to a compact design with better light control by maximizing the potential of the laser light source. The resulting higher colour volume means naturally colourful images, even at high brightness levels, and stunning, immersive contrast.

Flagship-level X1™ Ultimate for projector  

X1 Ultimate for projector optimizes our acclaimed BRAVIA TV video processing for projection. The incredible power of this video engine enables advanced data processing, with real-time enhancement of each on-screen object. The result is high-dynamic-range imagery with texture, colour, contrast and realism never before available to home cinema.  

Make the home cinema experience bigger and better than ever  

Sony 4K projectors are compatible with IMAX Enhanced content, making them ready to deliver the bigger, more breathtaking IMAX visuals you love in compatible content. Take advantage of the size of your projector screen with movies that become even more immersive with IMAX Enhanced. 

Enduring brightness from a laser light source  

You’ll never have to worry about changing the lamp in your home cinema projector—no lamp replacement and virtually no maintenance are required. The VPL-XW5000ES uses an ultra-pure and reliable Z-Phosphor™ laser light source, which lets you enjoy perfectly clear 4K pictures at optimal brightness for up to 20,000 uninterrupted hours.

Input Lag Reduction  

Enjoy the latest games lag-free on the big screen. All of our 4K projectors include input lag reduction that enables the player’s input to be reflected on screen without delay. The VPL-XW5000ES supports 4K 60-Hz input with an input lag under 21 ms, and 2K 120-Hz input with an input lag under 13 ms.

4K Motionflow™  

The powerful video processor in the VPL-XW5000ES offers Motionflow for smooth and clear motion, even when viewing 4K content. Motionflow is ideal for fast-moving sports content, as it adds frames to reduce blur while maintaining brightness. Cinema purists can choose True Theatre mode to retain the original 24fps.
