I love the picture quality. The image is so sharp and clear you feel like you can walk into it. The only drawback is no zoom lens memory. I have to manually adjust the zoom each I switch between PS4 and my Sony UHD1000 player. A real pain in the butt

Terrible blacks

As far as resolution goes the 295 es is great, contrast as well as blacks are terrible, I upgraded from an epson 5030ub but other than resolution this projector feels like a downgrade. Colors do not pop at all overall picture seems dim and the blacks are just pathetic. I would not recommend, will be trying jvc soon as I’ve read their contrast and black levels are far superior to Sony. Also runs loud imo.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I purchased this projector a little over a year ago and it's really been great. I will say some have mentioned black levels and that is the only reason I wouldn't give it 5 stars. I think it does have a lot to do with the price point. No one would buy the next step up if it had perfect blacks! With that being said I have really enjoyed this projector. I enjoyed the Super Bowl this year in stunning (albeit up-converted) 4K and it looked amazing on this projector. I feel like I maybe bought this projector a little early as 4K content is still scarce. I highly recommend getting a screen to take advantage of the performance of this projector. I went with a SI Slate 1.2. It really makes the image pop!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Started shopping for ultra short throw projectors to upgrade my media room. But the features of the Sony 4K SXRD Home Cinema Projector, primarily native 4k, made this an easy purchase decision. Great picture out of the box, easy set-up, outstanding price/value solution.

The picture this projector produces is better than most commercial cinemas. If you want to see a better picture then go to a full IMAX presentation. Has very good black levels. I use this with my ps5 and there is not any real latency to be found. HDR pops!
