Just passed the 100 hr mark on the projector and I am really impressed. Picture is amazing. Detailed, deep blacks and the colors are incredible.
Using all sources from OTA TV to 4K HDR on Kaleidescape the unit delivers.
Highly recommended.

I wanted a native 4k projector and the Sony VPL-XW5000 hit the mark in a price range that was not out in left field. Picture quality is awesome. Set up was a breeze.

This is my fourth projector. It is by far the brightest and best contrast projector of all.
I especially love the remote. It is designed so that a person like me that is not a trained set up person can navigate.

With a dedicated light controlled movie room with a 170 inch screen 4K resolution is appreciated. After much research, I chose this to replace my Epson. You get native 4K resolution, high contrast and sufficient lumens all at an unmatched value. Could not be happier with my purchase.

I bought this projector to replace an old Epson that was 12 years old.. Installation was easy with appropriate bracket..I ran a new fiber HDMI cable since my old one was way outdated and would not display 4K!! I have watched several movies and several sports shows since installing and the picture is excellent!!! Clear beautiful colors and black level is amazing for a projector!!! I am very happy with my purchase and would recommend this projector for anybody looking for new or upgrade of old projector..you won't be disappointed!!

We traded up from an old Epson and this is a night a day difference. The picture is so bright and crisp. Never realized how bad the old projector was until I got this!

This was a move up from an Epson 5030ub, so bulb based 1080p to native 4K laser is quite the jump. I’m projecting on a 135” budget 1.0 gain grey screen and the colors, contrast and brightness are spectacular. I sit about 14’ away and the detail and sharpness of the image is so much better than what I was used to. I love that Epson for what it is but this is in a different league. Having only had the projector for a couple of weeks, I’m still playing with different settings and testing various 4K media with my Oppo so still have to spend more time with this to really get to know it. The only con I’ve noticed so far is it can crush some black detail in difficult scenes but I may be able to tease out some image with some adjustment tweaks, not a deal breaker for me but worth mentioning. Also, my old projector was supposed to have a similar lumen rating and had about 900hr on the bulb but this is significantly brighter. Haven’t put the laser past 60 (50 is default) and won’t need to unless I am keeping some lights on in the room. Last thing is it is much quieter than the old Epson and is mounted right above my head so that is also a big plus, hope it stays this quiet.

Fantastic true 4k laser projector! Sony’s least expensive 4k laser projector. Super easy setup with manual focusing. Worth every penny! Amazing cinematic picture! I have had Viewsonic, BenQ, and Epson projectors in the past…none of them come close to the Sony 4k laser! Highly recommend without any reservations. I bought mine on sale…costs more than most other brands, but Sony quality is worth the premium price.
