Imagine watching movies on a 100-inch screen in your living room, cinematic experience without leaving your house. LG has just about done that, 100-inch short throw projectors are abundant in the market but what make the PF1000U stand out compared to the others is that the LG Minibeam Ultra Short-Throw is able to do it from a distance of only 38 centimeters away!. As the image shows that’s a pretty low space consuming feature its un-obstructive and with a sleek design, this particular model does not even become a eyesore in the living area. Those who are into projectors will also be pleased to know the unit comes under two kilograms, making it easy to transport to any area in the house, invite friends over and you can have dinner with projection of holiday videos over the dining table. Other plus point also include a full HD resolution which means 1080p in brightness of 1000 lumens that will lasts for an estimated 30,000 hours thats about 10 years before the lamp needs changing.
Now to project a 100-inch picture, conventional projectors usually need to be positioned three to four meters from the screen or wall. This not only presents a problem for small living rooms, the power cord running from the projector to the outlet is unsightly and a safety hazard. What’s more, conventional projectors in the market create a “no walk zone” in a large part of the living room between the projector and the screen. The tiny projector suffers from none of these limitations if you require 60-inch display the distance is even closer at just 4.3 inches from the wall.
This projector also delivers an incredibly detailed, high quality picture. The picture quality is enhanced by the Triple XD Engine, a chip that is the result of LG’s 50 years of experience in the television industry. Able to display Full HD resolution (1920 x 1080), the projector employs a self-emitting RGB LED illumination system for the most natural shades and hues possible all the while running quietly at only 21dB in Eco Mode.
Although compact, the Minibeam UST is capable of replicating a near cinematic experience. With its Four Corner Keystone function, viewers can easily eliminate distortion even when the projector isn’t perfectly aligned with the screen. The Minibeam UST can also connect via Bluetooth to sound bars, portable speakers and wireless earphones for an immersive audio experience. The projector also comes equipped with a TV tuner as well as USB and HDMI inputs.
“LG’s new Minibeam UST projector delivers a 100-inch Full HD picture in a package that is easy to transport from room to room,” said Lee In-kyu, senior vice president and head of the TV and monitor division at LG’s Electronics Home Entertainment Company. “LG Minibeam UST makes it possible for every home and every room to replicate a real theater-like experience.”
The PF1000U will be released this month in Europe markets, to be followed by countries in North America, Africa and the Middle East in October.
