"A pull-out-all-the-stops performer with future-proofing to its name" What Hi-Fi Sound & Vision Award Winner 2016

Thanks to their massive experience in all aspects of entertainment, Sony are now able to bring the detail of 4K Ultra HD resolution to the home cinema. Simply put, projecting in this resolution gives detail and realism that's impossible to achieve with conventional Full HD resolution. UHD 4K resolution is four times greater than the more conventional 1920 x 1080 Full HD projectors and it's a difference you can easily see on a large projection screen.

Super Resolution 4k Upscaling
Watching a 4K signal from a source such as Netflix or Amazon Prime is awesome but the VPL-VW520 still excels with other resolutions, too. With Super Resolution 4K upscaling built-in, you get much of the benefit of 4K resolution with your existing Blu-ray disc library. Just leave it to the Sony to upscale the image and maximise the picture quality.

HDR for the richest, most believable colour
The Sony VPL-VW520ES is compatible with HDR (High Dynamic Range) for brilliant realism. HDR not only offers deeper blacks, brighter whites and more vibrant colours, but also more subtle images, too. So what looks like an area of solid black on an inferior projector will be shown to actually have shade and texture, previously unseen.

The latest specification HDMI
The Sony VPLVW520 features an HDMI socket that is compatible to highest current level - up to 4K 60p YCbCr 4:2:0 / 8-bit and HDCP 2.2. What this means is that you'll be able to use the projector with upcoming UHD 4K video sources that are due to be launched in set-top box and Blu-ray form imminently.

SXRD panels for vivid picture quality
Sony uses advanced SXRD (Silicon X-tal Reflective Display) panels with an incredibly rapid response rate of just 2.5 milliseconds. This gives the VPLVW520ES smooth, fluid motion that's faster and more stable than typical LCD TVs. Another advantage over TVs is the increased panel resolution of 4096 x 2160. This ensures that films can be viewed in panoramic formats, such as CinemaScope and American Vista with much less of the picture taken up by black bars.

Improved contrast and brightness
A further benefit of the SXRD panel against LCD is an improved contrast ratio. By using a superior alignment layer, less light is scattered giving greater levels of black and, hence, a better contrast ratio. With an Advanced Iris, the VPL-VW520ES offers an even higher contrast ratio and brightness, compared to the VW320ES. The brightness figure improves by 20% to 1800 lumens, improving the picture definition in lighter rooms.

RF 3D compatible
With a built-in RF transmitter, the VPL-VW520ES is all set for 3D. Simply add optional RF glasses and you have access to high quality 3D; without the need for a separate transmitter. Especially impressive on the big screen, 3D images offer awesome depth and projection when shown on a quality device such as this.

Watch bigger, brighter and more detailed than ever before, with the improved Sony VPL-VW520ES.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Fantastic 4K picture easy to set up and good looking I had a Sim2 Projector which was good but this takes large screen movies to the next level and beyond its bright colours deep blacks and bright whites make it better then I expected I guess that's the 1800 Lms and the HDR. I put this with my new Yamaha RX3050 and OMG its fantastic need I say more
