Sony VPL-XW7000ES 4K Laser Projector

Manufacturer Details:

The beautifully styled VPL-XW7000ES is a native 4K HDR laser projector that blends effortlessly into today’s living spaces. The projector’s long-lasting laser light source delivers an impressive 3,200 lumens brightness – plenty for vibrant, punchy pictures even in brightly lit living rooms, home cinemas or media rooms. The advanced 4K SXRD™ panel is teamed with new wide dynamic range optics and Sony’s power packed X1 Ultimate for projector processor. It all adds up to vibrant true 4K HDR images bursting with rich colours, awe-inspiring contrast and expanded dynamic range that honour the original content creator’s intentions. The VPL-XW7000ES integrates seamlessly into today’s connected environments, with support for a wide range of home AV management standards. A stunning addition to any living space, it’s also kinder on the planet with a mercury-free laser light source and reduced energy consumption per lumen compared with previous models.

An Award Winner:

"Every bit of the 3200 lumens of light from the laser lighting seems to find its way onto the screen, where it also feeds into the XW7000ES’s colours. The richly hued traditional costumes of the villagers in Sony’s travelogue footage look incredibly fresh and immediate, while the fairground lighting and glowing reds and oranges on show during the night-time Prague fight with the fire elemental in Spider-Man: Far From Home look blisteringly intense. A remarkably vibrant demonstration of how brightness can unlock a wider colour gamut – and, perhaps, of the XW7000’s extra Live Colour Enhancer feature."
