    's proprietary SXRD technology lies at the heart of this projector. It's a variation of ‘liquid crystal on silicon' or LCOS technology, a reflective (like DLP) rather than transmissive (as in LCD) technology. Three 1080p LCOS chips are...

    Yes it's a hefty price tag, but for the serious Home Cinema lover, Sony's answer to JVC's D-ILA range provides excellent sharpness and colour authentication with increased smoothness and easy remote controlling. Sony - Bravia VPL-VW85 price...

    I have this déjà-vu feeling that I've reviewed this projector before. And in some ways, I have. Much of this projector is very similar to the VW70 I reviewed last year, which itself was similar to the VW60 and the 50 and so on. Each...

    We want to start off with crediting the VW85 for being the first projector to shatter our long standing assumption that home-cinema projectors tend to struggle with simple text. We were so wrong. Straight out of the box, without a single tweak or...

    Nice! The Sony VW85 is a great projector. It's extremely well balanced. It's not without minor flaws, but technically, it's well done and puts a great picture up on the screen. You'll be spending something approaching $8000 and you have...

    ’Seeing is believing’ says Sony, and that has never been more true than with the new BRAVIA VPL-VW85. Using three latest generation SXRD panels with 1920x1080 pixels each, it produces smooth and crisp High Definition images. In conjunction...

    Although Sony was doubtless chuffed to receive a well-deserved Recommended badge for its projector recently, the thought may also have flitted across its mind that the quality the HW15 served up for under two grand might make the brand's...

    Sonys VPL-VW85, a three-panel SXRD (LCoS) projector, is the successor to the brands very well-received mid-price VW80, and, with a barnstorming performance both in our Tech Labs and on the test bench, it looks set to become a key figure in the home...
