Step up to a new generation of immersive cinematic experiences with Sony's new latest native 4K laser projectors. BRAVIA Projector 8 elevates home cinematic entertainment to the next level drawing on cutting-edge picture processing technologies by Sony that harness cognitive intelligence for the most realistic, emotion-packed images yet.
Wide dynamic range with richer, more subtle graduations
The latest XR Processor for projector draws on Sony's acclaimed BRAVIA TV technologies, harnessing advanced data processing for real-time optimisation of individual on-screen objects. You'll be rewarded with stunning 4K HDR images with contrast and realism that are unattainable with previous-generation home cinema projectors.
XR Dynamic Tone Mapping
Peak brightness is analysed frame by frame: tone mapping ensures that direct sunlight and other bright highlights are faithfully reproduced, while retaining fine detail in dark shadow areas.
XR Deep Black
Laser dimming is accurately controlled in dark scenes like night skies, delivering deeper, richer blacks while maintaining tone and colour accuracy.
A billion bright, beautiful colours
High brightness is combined with XR Triluminos Pro technology, achieving over 95% coverage of the DCI-P3 colour space. Faithful reproduction of over a billion colours reveals the subtlest variations in saturation and hue.
Achieve ultimate clarity
XR Clear Image processing analyses individual objects frame-by-frame, upscales all your favourite content to near-4K resolution and minimises picture noise. The results are so real - it's almost unreal!
Vivid, ultra-real colour that's always true to life
Live Colour Enhancer technology selectively expands tonal range for vivid HDR images without unnatural over-saturation, whether you're watching in daylight or darkened rooms. You'll see the difference with accurate, true to life skin tones and more vibrant, vivid images.
Crystal clarity with Advanced Crisp-Focused (ACF) Lens
Sony's Advanced Crisp-Focused Lens features a 70mm aspherical front lens element that widens the focus area, ensuring crystal clear images from corner to corner. The floating focus system uses two moving lens groups and extra-low dispersion glass for distortion-free images with accurate colour reproduction.
Smooth, responsive gameplay
Get even more big-screen gaming excitement with the latest fast-paced titles. Everything is super-smooth, supple and responsive, giving you that crucial competitive edge when split-second reactions count for everything. Support for 4K 120fs ensures smoothly rendered gameplay. Connect a compatible games console via HDMI 2.1 and the projector switches to Auto Latency Mode for responsive, fast-paced gaming with reduced input latency.
Light and compact
Lighter and more compact than most native 4K home cinema projectors, the VPL-XW8100ES simplifies ceiling-mounted installation.
Ready for action
Out-of-the-box picture settings including colour and gamma are fine-tuned for home cinema watching, saving time on fiddly adjustments during installation.
Great in any space
Lens shift and keystone correction ensure perfectly-proportioned pictures, even in smaller rooms with high ceilings and limited depth.
Seamless integration with home automation systems
BRAVIA Projector 9 is right at the centre of your connected home entertainment world. They're certified for compatibility with leading automation protocols such as URC, Control4, Creston, Savant and AMX, as well as remote maintenance services including OvrC and Domotz.
Entertainment that's more environmentally friendly
Enjoying great home entertainment doesn't have to mean compromising on sustainability, BRAVIA Projector 9 features advanced technologies that save energy and lessen overall impact on the environment.
Enhanced power efficiency
XR Deep Black technology precisely controls laser output frame by frame, reducing power consumption in dark scenes to improve energy efficiency.
Mercury free
The energy-efficient laser light source doesn't contain any mercury, making Sony's projectors kinder on the environment at every stage of their lifecycle, from production to recycling.
