BuyDig has LG CineBeam HU715QW 4K UHD DLP Ultra Short Throw Smart Laser Projector (Open Box) on sale for $1439.99 w/ promo code clearout10. Shipping is free.
Thanks to Deal Editor iconian for finding this deal.
Great price for a highly rated projector, unfortunately a few cons that are deal breakers for some.
Max screen size 120"
No 3-D
Input lag over 50ms which means games that are twitched based like shooters you will see a delay between button press and action on the screen.
If your main goal is movies and you have no interest in 3-D this is a very solid deal though.
I tried one of these brand new back in January/February.
it had an awesome image just testing it on my off white wall, with a proper screen it would be fabulous. Even in indirect daylight, right next to my 10 foot giant picture window it projected a nice picture. I can honestly say because of the huge size of the image you can get away with just projecting this onto a wall and only really serious people are going to say anything bad about the image.
as with any type of projector, the darker the room the better the image, but again I was really surprised how nice it looked on a white wall with indirect sunlight coming in.
long story:
I would have kept it, but the one I had would randomly flicker a black image for 0.50 seconds, super fast but you would notice it easily.
I tried 3 different 4K hdmi cables and tried a Roku Express 4K+, a Roku Ultra and a Chromecast 4K and they all did the random black flicker. I also tried all the different HDMI inputs on the projector with the same results. ( did it with 4K and 1080 content, both locally streaming from my Plex server and internet streaming )
I tested the 4K HDMI cables using my laptop and my sony 4K TV and windows said they were all 4K 60 HDMI cables. all of the ROKU's said the cables were 4K 60 and supported HDR.
I'm sure it was just 1 bad unit, because these get good reviews everywhere.

$1800 is what I paid for a D2 with a screen, but the screen was garbage. Everywhere I see the price of the AWOL 3500 model to be around $5500, so unless you got a big sale or a early adopter price.
September 28 of 2022 was the review date, yeah I see they added a turbo game mode since the review and they now do list the number you mentioned on their product home page. Problem with these game modes is they usually cut the quality of the picture to make the numbers work. So you want a projector that does not need a game mode in most cases.
The L9H after being pushed back a few times already launched some units in Europe and at least one person who has it in Poland says its no different than the L9G besides the addition of the DV. No one answered the question on if they improved the input lag, and if this new one has 3-D. So for now does not that seem that encouraging. The launch date for the US seems to be August now, so we will see what the US reviews say.
All good points. I was price referencing the 2500, the 3500 is fairly expensive. Too much $ for me.
I believe the game mode on the D2 makes the same compromises? Lose keystone correction, etc.
No reason to expect they'd add 3D to the L9H which means it's not for me. All I care about is the best 3x laser 3D projector out there.

And $1800 is a pretty good price for a D2. What was the crap screen?

Its even cheaper now on sale in some places, also refurbished and used. The screen name I dont recall any longer got rid of it awhile ago, but it was supposed to be an ALR screen but it was so thin you could see right through it. It was part of a buydig bundle deal.
