Never had a plan to buy a projector, nevertheless a short throw one. Came across this one as an open box for clearance at $480 and didn’t even think for a second to order it. Amazing piece, everything was included and a great product.

The Home Theater of My Childhood Dreams

As a child, I had always dreamed of having a movie theater in the comfort of my home. Now this dream can be a reality for most people with the availability of LG's new premium 4K UHD laser short throw projectors. These new projectors can project up to 120-inch image sitting only a few inches from the screen and as such prevents the need for traditional costly setups such as projector mounting, cable management, and calibration, as well as the potential for image obstruction if anyone passed by the projected image. Now the ultra-short throw projector (UST) can project a large image very close to the screen, allowing you to place the projector on a stand, or even on the floor, and achieve the same results as a traditional projector. Featuring a brightness of 3,000 ANSI lumens for the HU915QB (black) and 3,700 ANSI lumens for the HU915QE (beige) images can project acceptably in daylight but stand out in the dark Where the HU915QB trades in brightness it gains in having a slightly wider color gamut compared to the HU915QE. Both projectors fully support HDR and 4K resolution, images are crisp, and motion is fluid. The interface and controls are intuitive and responsive, and the projector fan noise is minimal. As an added benefit, the stylish projector cabinet also features built-in speakers to increase usability as a stand-alone product. Support for Dolby Atmos via HDMI pass-through allows these projectors to also connect to your existing home theater setup for a complete experience. Finding a good projector screen to pair with this projector is also very important, as image quality is optimized if projected onto a screen specially designed for UST projection. Look for a screen that features ambient light-rejecting material to optimize daytime viewing.
An area of improvement includes a poor selection of supported apps on LG's WebOS Projector platform. There are multiple notable applications missing that are otherwise ubiquitous on LG’s TV selections. LG acknowledges this limitation stating that native third-party support for the project device is not as comprehensive as their TV line. To circumvent this limitation a streaming platform that does support a wide range of streaming services can be connected via the projector’s three HDMI inputs (HDRMI 2.1 x 1, HDMI 2.0b x 2). Overall, I highly recommend this projector for any enthusiast looking for premium image quality to fulfill their home theater dream.

Top notch picture quality and color accuracy

I purchased this LG UST as a living room TV replacement. Its not my first UST but it was the most expensive. Let me start with the good: the picture quality is beautiful and the color accuracy is spot on. While other projectors give you a low end LED TV picture quality, this projector definitely delivers a higher quality. Contrast isnt great but in a dark room its more than acceptable. But that leads to the bad: while the projector can get 3000 lumens bright, to get an accurate picture you need to dim that by roughly 1/3. Meaning that day time use, even for bright content like sports just isnt up to snuff. Even night time with lighting in certain spots can wash out the image. So while this is a fabulous projector, I returned it because a cheap 98” TV costs the same and while it doesnt get quite as large, can be viewed in the day.

Unfortunately I see the rainbow effect. The black levels were disappointing too. I returned it for the new Sony laser projector.
