VPL-VW500ES 

a breathtaking 

4K home cinema 

experience

Enjoy your favourite movies in astonishing 4K detail 

Imagine the fully immersive cinematic quality of 4K in your own 
home. Our VPL-VW500ES home cinema projector gives you a  
4096 x 2160 resolution picture, over four times better than Full HD. 
It’s just like being at the movies. 
The exceptionally high dynamic contrast ratio of 200,000:1 with 
1,700 ANSI lumens brightness produces stunning detail and rich, 
faithful colour – even in well-lit rooms. 

Get the very best from your  

2D and 3D discs

 

While more and more native 4K material 
is becoming available, the VPL-VW500ES 
uses our Reality Creation technology to 
upscale Full HD content for an incredible 
4K experience. This Super Resolution 
feature means you’ll get the very best 
from your current Blu-ray Disc™ library, 
with fuller colour, greater clarity and more 
impact than ever before.

Compact and user-friendly 

 

The VPL-VW500ES is easy to operate, with 
a variety of control modes so you get 
the very best picture, whatever you’re 
watching. With a smaller optical engine 
than our leading 4K projector, the  
VPL-VW1000ES, its compact design also 
offers even greater flexibility for installation. 

Shaped by our professional 
cinema expertise

 

With decades of experience 
developing technology for the 
big screen, we’ve packed  
major innovations into the  
VPL-VW500ES:

Reality Creation

 our Super 

Resolution upscaler. Enjoy 
your existing Full HD Blu-ray™ 
collection, transformed for an 
exceptional 4K experience – 
even in 3D. 

Advanced native 4K 
SXRD panels

 produce an 

ultra-smooth, native 4K by 
dramatically reducing the 
space between pixels.

TRILUMINOS Display technology 

produces a much broader 
colour range, reproducing 
more tones and textures than 
a standard projector system 
for greater purity, depth and 
realism.
