What Is The Best Ultra Short Throw Projector? 2023 Laser TV Showdown Results UST Projector Shootout

They dont know how to judge projectors. The epson ls800 colors are really washed out.

Where is the LG HU915?

What the hell is this pixel shift 4K garbage? You're not getting 4 1080p screens together to create an authentic 4K image, they're using TWO 1080p screens. On top of that, companies try to dupe you with fancy terms like "4K Enhancement", "E-Shift", "XPR". Just be honest and not tell customers it has "4K resolution" when it's fake 4K.

It's like when realtors and apartment advertisers try to make you think you're getting a really cool kitchen even though it's incredibly small when they say things like "This apartment boasts GALLEY kitchen complete with parquet flooring".

How much more expensive is it to include 3D capability? In this price range, 3D should be included; dead, or not.

So, I’m just curious why you didn’t use the better c1pro in this comparison? It was on the market from mid 2023 and for fairness you could use one mentioning unofficial us channel for buying one, maybe next time on c2pro…. Except that I think you have done a wonderful job and I’m searching/viewing your content with confidence. Keep on doing that.
Ps I’m enjoying aC1pro from November, I-might be biased….

ProjectorScreen, hi.. hope all is good..just want to ask an opinion if it's worth upgrading to Epson Ls800? I have Hisense L9g 100 inch... ? Thanks in advance.🙏🙏🙏

I am confused, why the benq q600 or even better the benq q7050 wasn't in the test. All the reviews shows the benq q7050 batters the epson 800.

What is your thought if I want to purchase one for mid day to dark room conditions , which one is better for which condition ? please ! 🙏

These results would be significant if the judges couldn't see what projectors they are judging while judging them.

This needs to be a blind trial for 2024 and the judging will be taken much more seriously imo.

LaserTV, such a stupid name LOL

What are your thoughts on using an UST pj in a dedicated home theater with zero ambient light projecting on a AT screen? Are there specific screens for this scenario? Please advise.

IMHO the formovie getting first place twice in a year is a little concerning. The setup on it is not consumer friendly. It consistently needs focus adjustments. I believe out of the box experience on it is not aces. Not everyone is going to spend hours or days setting it up "just right". There needs to be a consumer confidence score on all these projectors. Ease of setup and out of the box watchibility. Thats where the LG 915 should have been brought in. a True plug and play unit.

enough with the hand movements bro

Proud owner of Formovie T1 (Theatre) since march 2022. Many people of AVS forums were calling us shills when we were praising it, moment of silent for them.

Hello, thanks for yor work! How about nomvidic p2000 and jmgo o2 ultra?
And what do you think about ust projectors 5000$+ such as epson ls12000, appotronics and so on, did they worth its money? elite - sim2 xtv 4k

When will the lifestyle video be released?! Excited to see if you had the C1 in there as i have seen great things about it

Not quite there yet native 8k will arrive soon enough and will be much better and worth the wait. Also be better on gaming.

Some of my friends say that Epson EpiqVision Ultra LS800W is the best ultra short throw projector, are they right?

Hmmm bit sceptical on these results, the formovie projector is only 2800 lumens brightness, may be a good picture but not very bright, I have the Samsung and it’s the same brightness and it’s way way too dark, when in a completely dark room

The Epson should simply be #1 because they are the only ones without a rainbow effect. Reviewers need to understand that this is most people's biggest issue with projectors.

Thank you for the info

at 3 minutes you introduce the judges and im like out of attention by then

I noticed from some review videos for the Wemax Nova SE 4k UST is basically the Formovie Theatre…… In those review videos the instruction manual for the Wemax is labeled “Formovie”…….

I believe the only major differences is the ANSI Lumens, ALPD 4.0, Android TV 11.0, and the 107%BT2020……

The Wemax having a slightly lower Grade in these categories. How significant are these changes?

I think a comparison between these would be really fun considering the price difference!!

I would love to see where the VAVA Chroma would stack up against these competitors!

Great content ❤

Such a shame that the Hisense 100l9hd laser-tv was not part of the showdown.
I'm really bummed that we, Europeans have the VIDAA os and you Americans have Google TV. Is it possible for a European, to buy the Hisense 100l9hd with Google TV from you and send it to Europe?

If you had to make a choice between the Nexigo Aurora Pro and the Ultimea Thor T60 which would you purchase - good 3D is a plus. Thanks

So I have been choosing between me getting a Epson LS800 or a Formovie

And this video made my mind up. Follow some of the guys in the video and the only thing people complain about the Formovie is the remote control.

So thank you for finally making me decide guys.

So what exact model was the 1st place winner ? Formovie t1 global ?

Have you taken projector noise into account? Does any of them have noticeable high-pitched noise (laser noise?) in addition to fan noise?

I guess I made the right choice in buying the Formovie last year. Combined with the Vivid Storm 120” floor riser, the Formovie produces a great hdr picture. 😊😊😊😊😊

Congrats to formovie , a brilliant projector . I recommend it fully .

Been using my Formovie Theater for over a year now and absolutely love it! Excited to upgrade my screen to a 120 inch soon.

Will you be doing a shootout for long throw laser projectors?

It's interesting that The Hook Up ranked the Formovie as the lowest overall and it was ranked highest overall here. Now I don't know what to believe 🤔

I thought Awol 3500 was better than the Formovie?

Without the NexiGo Aurora Pro?

Recommended alr screens?

Amazing do this every year keep up the good work!the best test to date is by the channel - the hook up ust showdown

I've just spoken to the Nexigo customer service team. Allegedly, you guys were not using the right firmware for your testing with the unit you used and it is apparently a known issue to give a poorer result, and the original one you lent to the hookup was apparently a pre-production unit.

Don't get me wrong, the Formovie Theatre is a beast, and I'm sure you guys did a really thorough job testing. But it may not be a real life representation of what customers will experience if the customer service feedback is to be believed.

Hello, just and advice for the net time, make it as bling test, too heavy halo effect bias to get a realgood result in my opinion.

Thanks, that was a great work. But could we maybe get links with additional info? Like how much each unit scored. Would also be nice to see their measured latency times etc.


Thanks.

What long throw projector would be better then the Formovie projector under $3500.

However we saw a side to side comparison proved nexigo aurora pro is bank for the buck, this one don't show side to side comparison

So the Nexigo was knocking everyone out in the hookup video and in this shootout it’s sitting at the button? Now am concerned if the Nexigo the shootout had is different from the nexigo Aurora pro everyone else get. Am confused now if I should go the Nexigo route or AWOL. I like 3D

I care more about brightness, is the LG with the 3700lm better than the Formovie 2800lm with HDR10+?

It that my boy Chris Majestic!?!

Since the Formovie has now been crowned the heavyweight champion of UST projectors, why not periodically have other models, especially the newer ones challenge it for the title?
