ALR = Ambient Light Rejection.

Basically the material is (on a very tiny scale) ridged/zigzagged so that one facet is facing your projector directly and the other side of the "ridge" is catching the light from above/ahead/the rest of the room. That way your eye only sees the portion that's bouncing back the full-strength projected image at you, rather than a washed-out picture that's competing with the rest of the ambient light. A diagram helps to explain this, too.

I want one, the above excerpt is how I'd attempt to sell my wife on the idea. I would not succeed. Hope this helps you!
don't trust the original $1800 price tag. this is only worth $200.
actually don't trust anything hisense said.
Alot if you have a short throw projector and any kind of ambient or outside lighting while you watch it.

But wouldn't the size needs depend on the size of room and how far away that you are sitting from it?
True. So you pick the maximum you can do.
Though "how far away" is irrelevant for laser PJ's.

In my case my PJ can handle 130", but the wall only 120", therefore I went with 120"

How much better is this vs using a blank white wall.

I have a Samsung LSP9T and projected on my wall which is painted with a sprayer so it's pretty flat. I did it for a couple weeks until I found a screen. The wall projection was pretty clear but when I got my grey screen in, it made a big difference. When projecting on a wall, if there's any imperfections in the wall, you'll see it. For me, there was a hump on the wall. Probably from a warped piece of wood used in the framing.

A lot, but to be honest you can make a very good screen of your own using a 8x4 hard board (forget the name, but it's that thin composite wood sheet) with the proper paint. Lots of tutorials with tests to back them up out there. When I made mine I think I was all in for under $100, including a frame. If you like DIY and want to save some cash I would consider it.

note that these screens will reduce your projector brightness by nearly a half - opt for a fresnel screen if you want brightness preserved

Thank you. Sounds like a gimmick more than anything.

There is a scammer on YouTube , black series edition, that sells home Depot grey paint that he mixed with other junk paint and he sells it for 100x the homedepot price lol. Once in a while I take time to downvote his videos so he can't scam more people.

The only thing I agree is screen being dark. In my previous house I used to project on a dark brown wall and colors and contrast was incredible. In my now house I have a regular motorized white screen and I don't get anywhere near that kind of colors and contrast. One day I'm going to paint it black haha.

If you have an ultra short throw projector, it definitely isn't just a gimmick. I use one in my living room, and it makes the image significantly better during the day. It doesn't help as much at night or in a light controlled room, but it does reduce the amount of light that gets reflected onto the ceiling vs. a regular screen.

Yes. And the projectors cost about $2500. I have this set up and regret it. Wish I woulda waited and bought a 100 inch tv instead.

I have an epson ls800 with an elite screen alr. It was about a 5k setup last year and a 6k audio setup. I've been disappointed severely with the halo effect around the border and having to move the projector for focusing and sizing. I have a custom cabinet it for as well. Looking back I would've gone with a 77in-100in television and will do that once I have to replace. If I could've setup for under 2k with similar results could be worth it.

I've been considering the epson ls800 as my first projector with a 120 or 150" screen. Sad to hear your experience. Thanks for sharing.

Unless you have a projector that cost thousands of dollars, this screen is not for you. You need very high lumens to take advantage of an ambient light rejecting screen. Without high lumens your picture quality is going to be terrible. Also, this screen is only worth about $50. The materials used do not cost that much. Not to mention Hisense is a terrible brand. Do your research people. You can build a better screen yourself & save money. Projector screen material does not cost that much, even the ALR. Less than $200 in materials can get you a bigger & better screen. Also for people with low lumen projectors, go for grey (dirty white) not white. Grey gives better contrast. White gives better brightness.

Do you have a link to where you buy the ALR fabric and frame ?

Thanks for the comment. I exactly have the same impression about Hisense. Not worth $50
