Hi Pete, Thank you for your inquiry! There is much confusion about the HDMI versions and concerns about compatibility. For this reason, we do not promote the HDMI versions incorporated on many of our products. Instead, we advertise the features of a product that are associated with a particular HDMI version. The only HDMI 2.1 feature supported by this model is eARC. For expanded features like 4K 120hz, VRR and ALLM, we apologize but there's no plan to have these added via future software update you may want to check our X900H model the 4k 120hz is available after a software update and there are plans to add the VRR and ALLM features in future updates. You may also check our article https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/articles/00246472 for more information. I hope this helps! -Carl

eARC yes, 2.1 no. If you want a sony with 2.1 get the 900h.

It does have eARC. I am personally using it now to get audio back to my receiver for a 4K HDR source (Apple TV) because my current receiver does not support 4K or HDR. As for HDMI 2.1, I do not believe this model supports it. The 900 model does tho I believe X900H does.
