Sony Projector VPL-VW665ES Specifications

							VPL-VW665ES
Home Theater Projector         
						

							Seeing is believing 
Experience the beauty of true 4K
Bring incredible 4K detail to your favorite movies
Imagine bringing the truly cinematic quality of 4K into your own home. Now you can make this a  
reality with our VPL-VW665ES Home Theater projector. It’s our most affordable 4K model yet,  
producing a native 4096 x 2160 resolution picture – that’s over four times the quality of Full HD.
Designed for your home theater room and living room, the VPL-VW665ES delivers stunning,  
detail-packed images and incredibly lifelike color like never before. And with high brightness,  
you’re guaranteed an exceptional picture even in well-lit rooms. 
						

							High Brightness
Drawing on optical technology developed for the VPL-VW1100ES, we’ve achieved high brightness. Conventional  
home theater projectors typically enhance the green color to secure image brightness. However, this projector  
boasts our new Bright Cinema and Bright TV modes. Optical block and signal processing improvements bring  
high brightness without a loss in color reproduction and contrast, so you can enjoy bright, crisp images even  
when viewing in a well-lit room.
Remarkable Dynamic Contrast for Highest Picture Quality
With Sony’s Advanced Iris3 technology, this projector can achieve an incredible 300,000:1 dynamic contrast for the 
best ever images.
Real-life clarity with Cinematic 4K- over four times the detail of Full HD
With more than four times the resolution of Full HD, 4K offers 8.8 million pixels for a picture that’s  
so incredibly lifelike, you could believe you’re looking at the real thing. Every detail is perfectly clear,  
with less jagged edges and visible pixels than with a conventional Full HD projector.

							As well as native 4K material, you can watch your current Full HD Blu-ray™ or DVD movie collection upscaled for a 4K 
experience.  Reality Creation is a super-resolution technology that radically enhances Full HD content, even upscaling 
3D movies for 4K.

Reality Creation: Upscale Your Movies to 4K
Compatible with ‘Mastered in 4K’ Blu-ray Discs
Drawing on the same technology used to downscale 4K material for Full HD, the projector gives you 
a near-native 4K experience with discs ‘Mastered in 4K’. It’s as close as you can get to the 4K-pixel 
resolution and expanded color range of the original.

Advanced SXRD Panels
The projectors’ 4K native SXRD panels produce outstanding native device contrast, reproducing deep blacks by 
improving the flatness level of the pixel surface.

							TRILUMINOS™ Display
The projectors’ optical engines and SXRD panels incorporate our TRILUMINOS Display technology to produce a much 
broader color range, reproducing more tones and textures than a standard projector system. The result is greater 
purity, depth and realism.

Advanced  Motionflow
We’ve simplified our Motionflow offering. Combination mode uses Sony’s Film Projection and Motion Enhancer 
capabilities, adding frames to reduce blur and maintain brightness in thrilling, fast-moving scenes. Cinema purists  
can choose True Cinema mode to retain the original 24 fps.

							Front-facing Fan
Because the fan is positioned at the front, you don’t 
need to worry about wall space and room for air intake/
exhaust when you install.  This helps maximize the 
throw distance for bigger projected images.
Installation AdvantagesUser-friendly Functions
Compact and Functional Design
A smaller optical engine means the projector is 
approximately 18 cm shorter in length than our  
leading projector, the VPL-VW1100ES, so there’s  
greater flexibility for installation.
Built-in Auto Calibration
After extended periods, color can be automatically 
calibrated to the original factory condition.  There’s 
no need for extra calibration equipment or cameras; 
a built-in color sensor stores all the necessary 
information.
Wider Zoom and Shift Lens
The projector offers a zoom-powered lens to provide 
maximum flexibility for home installations, including 
high ceiling mounting.
Electronic Panel Alignment
Ensures the red and blue elements in each pixel are 
precisely positioned against green.  Adjustments can be 
made by as little as 0.1 pixels for optimum clarity.
Picture Position Memory Matches  
Movie Aspect Ratio
The projector has a picture position memory, which 
memorizes the position of the lens (focus, zoom, shift).  
Users can match a movie’s aspect ratio, including 1.78:1 
and 2.35:1, and store these settings in the projector for 
easy recall.
Professional Calibration
A correction tool allows you to adjust the hue, 
saturation, and brightness of each color and the  
color space for red, green and blue respectively,  
to get exactly the picture you want.
Industry-standard RF 3D Compatible
A built-in RF transmitter synchronizes with any RF 3D 
glasses for wider coverage and greater stability, and 
there’s no need for an external transmitter.
The Latest 4K/60p HDMI Standard: 60 
Frames Per Second
The projectors can show up to 60 frames per second 
in 4K (at color signal YUV 4:2:0 / 8 bit).  It’s the new 4K 
industry standard and is much higher than the earlier 
24p.  The result is a smoother image with superior color 
and realism.
HDCP 2.2 Compatibility
Compatible with HDCP 2.2 - the latest content 
protection standard - ensuring readiness for future 
premium 4K content.
