LG CineBeam UHD 4K Projector HU70LAB - DLP Home Theater Smart Projector, Black

It is quiet enough the fan noise is not noticeable even within few feet of my head. The picture quality is good, but it is not a true 4K. Read the PDF manual which is linked from the web page.I purchased this to use as a PC monitor and needed full resolution, but it turns out the resolution has to be reduced for the best quality.The user interface is easy to use. It has a built-in TV turner which I don't see much use as most people probably use a separate streaming or cable box.The picture is not that bright and cannot be used in daylight. The room does not have to be dark, but it needs a dim room.It can be placed on a table, but ceiling mounting is the best to keep it out of the way. It needs to be horizontally centered at the lens (not the body) for the best focus because it only has vertical adjustment.This was a good starting projector at a reasonable price. I would go for the laser one the next time if I can afford it so that it can be used in daylight.

The media could not be loaded. Pros:- This is a very sleek looking projector that delivers great picture quality with 4K resolution and HDR support.- The modern retro-like look feels like a decorative art piece in your home. Its really so nice to look at! The auto keystone works well and it also has plenty of manual settings to fine tune it as well.- It has a pretty decent home screen menu with the usual app options for popular streaming services etc. It has multiple connectivity options like HDMI and USB Type-C.- The colors are accurate, and the image is bright and clear. Its impressive a device of this size can offer that level of crisp 4k quality.Cons:- Built-in speaker isn’t very powerful. You'll have a better experience by hooking up some external speakers for better sound. It can easily connect to Bluetooth speakers etc.- This should go without saying but yes you do need to use it in a fairly darker room to get that full range of contrast in the image. But I have used it during day time before in a slightly darker room and it was still very watchable.- The remote range isnt the best. You would have to point directly around the back of the projector. There are ways around it though apparently with the Universal LG wifi remote or an IT emitter extender.(edit 07/20/24): turns out it doesnt have to be so direct. Even if the remote is in closer proximity it will likley pick it up)Update 10/15/24:After using it for several months now, I am still enjoying it. The only real complaint I have is the lack of apps available. Wish it had Crunchyroll and Max but it's not a deal breaker for me since I can just use chromecast.Overall: It's a keeper! I love how it looks and how easy it is to carry around as well. It's an aesthetic decorative piece that doesnt compromise in quality.

Generally, I’m very impressed with this projector, with one main glaring issue that I’ll get to in a moment. First off, I bought this projector to replace an old projector in our home theater. It is mounted permanently from the ceiling. I mainly chose this projector for its 4K capability, its ARC support, its Ethernet jack (for streaming movies, hardwired Ethernet beats WiFi hands down), and its mechanical zoom lens (the ceiling mount and screen were already installed so I needed the zoom lens to fit the picture to the available screen size at the distance the projector would be shooting from). It has an on-board speaker, but we’ll never use it in a home theater. The picture is very bright in a darker home theater—with all the lights up full bright darker night scenes are difficult to see, but we never watch movies with the lights on anyway. Setup was easy. My main disappointment is that this projector will not support the YouTube TV app, which is what we use for everyday TV. Generally, this would not be an issue since we mostly just watch movies in the theater, but it would have been nice to retreat to the theater to watch some live 4K football games. I did call LG support (non-native english speakers on the other end) and was told that this projector is outdated and the software is not capable of running YouTube TV’s app. I’m not sure what other newer apps will not work either. Since that is my only issue, I will drop my rating to 4 stars, although, if I had known this issue, I would not have bought this projector. If you’re considering this projector for all its other great features, I recommend calling LG support to see if this model can run the apps you use.
