Description
The Sony VPL-XW5000ES is the entry point into Sony's native 4K SXRD laser home cinema range, combining an all-new 0.61-inch 4K SXRD panel with Wide Dynamic Range Optics in one of the most compact chassis in its class. A laser phosphor light source delivers up to 2,000 lumens of brightness with a claimed 20,000-hour operating life and no lamp replacements, while Sony's flagship X1 Ultimate for projector processor brings Object-based HDR Remaster, Dynamic HDR Enhancer and Object-based Super Resolution across from Sony's BRAVIA TV line.
Colour reproduction covers 95% of the DCI-P3 cinema colour space via TRILUMINOS PRO, and the projector is IMAX Enhanced certified. Connectivity is aimed squarely at dedicated home cinema installs, with 2x HDMI (HDCP 2.3) inputs, 4K 60Hz input with under 21ms input lag (13ms at 1080p/120Hz for gaming), RS-232C and LAN control, and certified compatibility with Control4, Crestron, Savant and AMX automation systems.
This is the white-finish version of the XW5000ES, offered alongside the standard black chassis where regional colour availability allows. Manual focus/zoom (1.38:1-2.21:1 throw) keeps cost down versus the motorised BRAVIA Projector 7/8/9 models above it in the range.

Planning from a real wall? Use the projector screen size calculator to upload a photo, preview the image to scale and find projectors that fit within your maximum available space. Replacing an existing projector? The projector replacement calculator checks whether this lens covers the ratio your current mount needs.
Distances are lens-to-screen, calculated from the manufacturer's stated throw ratio; allow for lens shift and mounting hardware. Always confirm against the manufacturer's installation guide before fixing mounts.
