Notably it doesn't have Hulu as an app and I don't believe you can add it. Not sure why this is. But there is Disney+ and you can access Hulu content on there (believe they'll be merged as apps at some point in the future). The other LG projector doesn't have Netflix and can't be added. Stuff like that makes no sense (I understand there's some licensing deal or something at play, but why they do that for some products but not others is just senseless).
Speaking of that other projector, its the larger, higher output LED one that goes on sale some for around this price, it looks almost like a huge security camera, has an ambient light in the base. I was gonna replace a 48" A series OLED that another family member has been using, but they have a ceiling fan with a like 30" drop so it gets in the way). Its fine, but I prefer the picture that this one puts out, I assume due to the laser light source, it seems to be more contrasty and almost OLED like (obviously very dependent on light control for that contrast level). I'm sure if you directly compared there would be no comparison to an OLED, but the high relative contrast and rich colors reminds me of OLED (compared to the LED and I also have an older Epson HID style bulb projector). At this price, I think its decent, but it is absolutely not worth the MSRP. I bought direct from LG on a different deal (not sure which one, it wasn't as good as this one), and they basically don't offer returns other than replacement so I can't send it back, but I probably would have as it just isn't worth the price I paid. There's some other things that might make it a dealbreaker (high input lag, I believe there is a 120Hz mode, or at least I saw it mentioned in one review but my computer was only showing 60Hz available so maybe its like TVs where it has a higher refresh rate but can only process lower signals). The design is neat but really isn't that amazing in person, and the handle is not something I'd rely on for height adjustment. I feel like they could have offered similar aesthetics but with better ergonomics.
So, for this price, its ok. But much more and its not worth it unless you really value the design, compact size, and low power use, and also can control the light environment it'll be used in well. For the MSRP it needs a lot higher light output, like 2-3x higher. I'll have to check if there's been firmware updates that might've improved something (like the input lag). If this was 1080p they wouldn't be able to ask much more than $500 for it, IMO. It being a compact 4K laser would be appealing, but it really needs more output if they want to be asking $1000+.
