It also doesn't make popcorn and seating comfort is terrible. O wait that's right, this is a projector, and the main purpose is to display an image.
Well technically, to project an image... Displays display images. Projectors project them. I do wish this projector had the integrated popcorn maker.

Try GV50. It has very good built-in speakers and a good portable projector
1080p. The whole point of this projector is that it's 4K. Otherwise you should get the WiMAX go advanced I personally own it and it's a great projector. Found a pretty good one used for $300 on eBay. Great purchase.

I know this is off topic but could that 1080p projector handle a 100" screen in shadows during the day with good visibility? I want an option that can handle that for evening outdoor movies. Don't care about sound.

Not even worth $200 IMO. For that price you can get better XGIMI or Epson

This comment is worthless without a link or at least a model number. I searched and didn't find any projectors from the brands you mentioned at comparable prices.

Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank

I bought one of these awhile back as I was expecting to be traveling a lot for work and wanted something compact that I could use as basically a portable computer screen (so wanted 4K, and relatively efficient as well). Its decent quality (looks good to my eyes even when not at max light output) and quite efficient (I believe it has a 65W power brick) for a projector. I had a knockoff kll-a-watt I bought on Amazon but I don't recall what the measured power draw was (I want to say it averaged 30-55W). Reason I mention this is because it doesn't have a built-in battery and a lot of people wanted that, so you'll be needing an external one. Definitely the max light output is limited so you'll want a very light controlled environment. The remote is atrocious, it looks like LG's Magic Remote but it isn't, and you have to point it at the projector (which is gonna be placed behind you probably, even if its in front of you I think the IR receiver for it is on the front). I'm not sure if you can pair a Magic Remote with it (I have I believe 3, 2 from LG OLEDs and one from another LG projector, but I didn't try pairing it with them as I basically just plug one device and don't really mess with it beyond turning it on).

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+.

You can get Epson CO-FH02 ($549) 3000lm or EF-11/12 for similar price with 1000lm or XGIMI Halo+ (there's a new version) with 700lm. All will work better. XGIMI often runs some promos and IMO they're a leader in a small projectors market.

Thanks for the review. This deal is for only LG Employer?
