”Delivering gorgeously cinematic and detailed pictures this Sony projector is an easy recommendation.” ’What Hi-Fi?’ 2023 Product of the Year.
A leap in performance For the first time at this price point, Sony has equipped their VPL-XW5000ES projector with laser technology. This gives a significant boost to brightness and contrast, making an already impressive projector the best yet. Combined with other exclusive Sony technology and all under the control of the powerful X1 Ultimate processor, it makes for a truly ‘best in class’ home cinema projector.
All new 4K SXRD panels and optics for lifelike images The latest version of Sony’s native 4K SXRD panel is better than ever. Delivering high brightness, inky blacks, vibrant colours and rich textures, picture quality is more true-to-life than ever. All-new, Wide Dynamic Range optics offer improved light control by maximising the laser light source. This means you get stunning contrast and natural colour, even at high brightness levels.
Total control, with the flagship X1 Ultimate processor Drawing on Sony’s acclaimed BRAVIA TV technologies, this Sony 4K laser projector uses their very best picture processor – the X1 Ultimate for projector. Powerful enough for real-time image optimisation, the processor facilitates a range of enhancements. From Object-based HDR Remaster that enhances picture brightness and contrast, to Digital Focus Optimiser that analyses every pixel for sharpness, the X1 Ultimate processor works behind the scenes, optimising every process for the ultimate picture.
TRILUMINOS PRO for natural colour Sony’s famous TRILUMNIOUS PRO system brings colour to life. Using algorithm detection from colour saturation, hue and brightness, the most natural shades are expertly reproduced. This means you get to enjoy true-to-life colour that stands the test of time, rather than oversaturated colour that may impress at first but not in the longer term.
IMAX Enhanced picture mode What better way to take advantage of IMAX Enhanced content than on a big, projected screen. IMAX Enhanced uses their proprietary digital remastering technology (DMR) to deliver ultra-vivid images. It brings IMAX Enhanced content to ‘life’ with depth of image and picture intensity to truly wow you.
Fluid image with 4K Motionflow Whatever you're watching, you'll enjoy liquid smoothness during fast-moving action scenes with Motionflow. This innovative technology creates and inserts extra frames between the originals. First, by comparing key visual factors on successive frames, then calculating each split-second of missing action, you won’t miss a thing.
Great for gaming More than just a movie thriller, the Sony VPL-XW5000ES is great with gaming, too. With Input Lag Reduction, you get dramatically more responsive control, keeping you ahead of the game. The VPL-XW5000ES supports 4K 60 Hz input signals with an input lag under 21 ms, and 2K 120 Hz input with an input lag under 13 ms.
Control your way If you love your tech, then the chances are that this Sony laser projector is just part of a sophisticated home automation system. The Sony VPL-XW5000ES integrates seamlessly with a wide range of home automation control products. Supporting Control4, Crestron, Savant, AMX and more, this projector effortlessly blends in to your home control system.
The world’s most compact native 4K HDR laser projector* At around a third the size and weight of its predecessor, the Sony VPL-XW5000ES is the most compact projector in its class. The crisp styling blends in harmoniously meaning that, if you don’t have a dedicated cinema room, the projector is much easier on the eye in your living room than previous ES models.
*As of April 2022, according to research by Sony.
Experience home cinema brilliance, with the Sony VPL-XW5000ES.

Good Entry Native 4K Laser ProjectorI had been looking to upgrade my HD projector to a 4K one and had been holding back for a couple of reasons. Firstly, I couldn’t find anything as quiet as the JVC D-ILA projector I had which was whisper quiet, secondly I wanted a laser projector with a native UHD panel, and thirdly one which wasn’t too heavy so that I could reuse the existing projector ceiling mount.
I had my eye on this projector for some time due to the good reviews, and it fitted the bill regarding being native 4K and was laser illuminated. Although the quoted noise level was a few dB higher than my old JVC it was quieter than other options. When I saw Richer Sounds offering £1,000 off for a marked box I decided to bite the bullet and buy one.
The projector has proved capable of producing some excellent images, and overall I’m very happy with what I’ve got for the money paid. I’m projecting onto a 77” screen in a darkened room, and as expected the images are bright and vibrant. Initially I found the fan noise to be intrusive as the projector is mounted directly above me, however I’ve reduced the laser output to minimum which still provides a good level of brightness, and reduces the fan noise to a more acceptable level for me. When playing an HDR disk the laser output increases to ’50’, and the fan noise sometimes increases depending on content, but this haven’t proved to be a problem.
The subjective white and black uniformity across the screen is excellent, as is the focus which is sharp to the corners. The registration is very good, although I did shift the red horizontally a little to optimise this.
Motion handling is superb, and I haven’t been aware of any noticeable artefacts.
I found that the projector is unable to produce a decent black, even with the laser brightness, and overall brightness setting set to minimum. In the darkened room a totally black image produces a visible dark grey raster. (Changing between standard and enhanced HDMI format doesn’t help). Regarding setting the HDMI format I found that the setting is global rather than per preset like most of the functions. This was confirmed to be the case by Sony. I think the old D-ILA projector was better in this respect.
Regarding the colorimetry I felt the red to my eyes was not a pure red, and was airing towards orange, although not enough to have a major impact on my enjoyment.
On a final point, I turned the ‘Network Management’ option to ON, even though I don’t currently have a network connection. which halves the time for the projector to produce the image. A small point but one I felt was worthwhile. There is a very small (negligible) increase in standby power consumption doing this.

Great Product and ServiceVery good product and service. Hard to justify the price but did in the end shell out for what I thought would be worth it. Richer sounds were brilliant in demo, process and collection. A few negatives for Sony are though very hard for multi bracket to connect. Sony also supplies no screws and expects you to have them. The install instructions are atrocious for a product of this cost. But very glad I bought and was impressed with Richer Sounds service and their 6 year guarantee and price match clinched the deal!

Amazing UHD picture for the money.Received my Sony VPL-XW5000 projector on free next day delivery from Richer Sounds of Chester and out of the box settings are amazing. Upscaling of 1080p HD sources is probably second to none. 4K sources result in almost 3D like pictures popping from the screen. Black levels are excellent and colours seem very natural even without any tweaking. Once installed the projector is very easy to set up, using the manual focus, zoom and vertical and horizontal offsets and warm up time is about 50 seconds. The WX5000 is the entry level laser light source projector and uses the same processor that is in their flagship projector priced at an eye watering £85000. Considering this WX5000 is listed at £6000 - happy days. Being a laser projector, the light source does not deteriorate over its anticipated lifetime of 20000 hours whereas the lamp based projector will require the bulb changing every 3 to 4000 hours. This entry level laser projector does not cater for 3D film sources as my previous Sony lamp based projector did, but other than that I have nothing negative to say about the new WX5000. if thjis is in your budget then go for it as there is nothing to compare to it at this price point. Kudos to Richer Sounds staff for their assistance and prompt service as well as their 6 year warranty.
