What are you possibly expecting as an answer? They are very different technologies.
You get a UST projector for a massive 110" or so screen. Either that, or because you don't want a big black rectangle in your living room at all times when your TV is off, and want some retractable screen for aesthetic reasons (our own case). You don't buy it to compete with an OLED TV in pure picture quality in normal conditions. It's a different use case. Even an 85" OLED TV would be like half the size you'd want to project with this. The beauty of UST is the size and scale. OLED TV's, even big ones, can't compete. Nor can UST compete with the inky blacks of OLED.
Anyone getting this - make sure you get an ALR screen, designed for UST. makes a WORLD of difference. These are NOT oled quality - but when you get a 120" image - you'll love it.
They approach a good LED screen. Most people can't tell if it's a projector or a TV.
The screen I got was from XY Screens, it came from china, and cost about $1,100 in 2019 - I do not know what the prices are today, but despite covidflation, i believe the prices are far lower today for that type of screen.
I have the Vava version of this - which is pixel shifted 4K and a color wheel, with an antiquated UI and no harmony support or any automation capable. So an upgraded device always has my eye.
Edit - mine is literally covering a 3 panel (north facing) window.
I would disagree with all three of you, depends on your situation, and use case. I watch most of my TV during the evening hours in which ambient light is already decreasing. Currently have a Optoma CinemaX D2 (prioritize gaming and 3-D), I have it positioned against a flat white wall projecting a full 120" image. Everyone whos comes to see it has been blown away, including people who own OLED TV's and the many variants. While the ALR screen will help you squeeze every bit of performance out of the projector and help with image quality its only needed if your literally in a room that has light coming in from every possible side. I also use it during the early afternoon on weekends and besides closing the blind closest to the wall, I leave the rest of the room alone and it still looks good without a screen.

Question - has anyone been able to get close to QLED TV quality through a projector .
Which price range projectors can compare to QLED TVs?
From what I see so far, the quality is significantly better depending on your set up. But to get to the quality like QLED, I don't think it's possible because you trade quality for size and convenience. While it can't match QLED, the quality would be really good for you to accept it.

The reason you buy this or any other projector is because either have a room where a 85"+ screen would be awkward to install or you want a more affordable solution for something bigger than 85". Otherwise you can get an 85" TV for much less.
Keep in mind with this or any other projector you need a proper screen which will set you back another $2K+ depending on size, brand, material (will it be placed in a 100% dark room or 50% ambient light, etc.).
Also 4K projectors at this price point are not native 4K. It's pixel shifted. To get a projector with native 4K you are looking at $6K+, emphasis on the plus -- still inexpensive compared to 110"+ TVs.

I had a 75" qled Samsung and upgraded to a Samsung LSP9T with a gray screen. When I watch it in a lit room, quality is still good but no where near as good as a qled. When the lights are off or dimmed to 10-20% it's like a massive tv. You wouldn't be able to tell it's a projector

It's a pretty good projector.
AWOL is 3 laser whereas Lg hu715 is single laser. Would suggest AWOL

I love mine but coincidentally it stopped working yesterday after about 7 months and now waiting to go to LG for repair under warranty.
