For the price of this projector, it gives the best performance (clarity, brightness etc.) and you get a MASSIVE 300" real estate. My only recommendation would be to wall mount this in your own setup. Awesome to see the price of high end projectors coming down and being more accessible. What would you guys watch on 300"?
To 300" you need a wall of 22' x 14' (feets) or 6.5m x 4m (metros) But for a 100" screen projection you need a screen or wall with more than a 7.38' x 4.1' (feets) or 1.25 x 2.25 (metros)
Title is clickbait. First, you don't even test this projector on 300" screen/wall. Seconds, image from this projector at 300" will be really bleak. You see, specs say that it can produce such big image because projector lenses could focus the image on right distance. But when you spread 2700 lens over such huge area it will not be good. Moreover, to get 300 inches you need at least 28 feet between the projector and screen. Oh, and 12 feet high ceilings.
I just bought this projector from LG over a week ago and it is amazing! This is my 3rd projector in 15 years and my first Lazer projector. For those who comment on the washed out look or lack of black level and contrast that can be fixed using the endless picture adjustments. The picture at night is out of this world and during the day it's like having a 120 inch led TV, so bright! And the fact that it has web os is another home run. Yes the price is hefty considering that there are many projectors at a more affordable price but not one that has Lazers! Don't believe me try looking 👍
@@LOBOFERZD I'm using the Qualgear 0.9 gain gray screen 120 inch. It works awesome with the LG. There is only a trace of laser speckle if you sit closer than 7 feet to the screen. Since I sit about 12.5 feet back, it's no issue.
Karl, great review. I still prefer UST. I love having my screens just a few inches from the projector. 300 inches is insane. VAVA, LG, EPSON and Hisense have great UST projectors.
it's just that UST cannot do 300" because of lens distortion. But no one needs 300" at home, and the projector on this video is not bright enough for 300" anyway.
congrats to you found this big 300" on the wall that I'm glad you show on the video so perfect. What is about the 400 or 500" has a projector available left? Let me know. Thank you so much Karl?!
I don't if you've consider getting speakers over using the sound bar? If wires and having a receiver are the issue, there are many wireless options now and only more coming. Checkout WISA (tech that enables wireless speakers) so you can use speakers from say Klipsch, Bowers and Wilkens, Enclave, etc or you can also go Sonos.
Karl! Can u do a vid about a smaller and cheaper projector, a very hige quality and easy to have in your room to watch Netflix on, or do like a review on the best affordable projectors. I feel like projectors could be a big thing in 2021
For 300 inches you would need something bigger than your entire wall. I have a projector than can easily fill my entire wall and my wall is close to 200 inches. I plan on getting a 400 inch screen just for the backyard.
While I agree with you since I own an OLED, this projector shows great shadow detail and awesome grayscale. When you watch a movie on a 110 inch screen or larger it's very immersive. Just think of it this way, do you pay to go to the theater?
@@kman9387 No matter what the projector is, without a proper room, it's not going to work that way. An ALR screen will help, but it's nowhere near what an OLED can do. Having said this, most people will be impressed by the 110" size and will be more than enough pleased with the tricks ANSI contrast plays with their eyes. I prefer projectors too, but I would never choose a setup like this over an OLED TV.
@@tiagojordao4105 completely understand. As to me OLED is king I still love the theater experience when using my LG hu810p. Even though my living room is not stub your toe dark it still has quite a puch for picture quality. But one thing is for sure Samsung is realizing that they are not fooling many with QLED that's why they are buying OLED panels from LG. OLED is supreme!
I was hoping that 4k laser projectors would be a bit more inexpensive by now. I know there are short throw laser projectors but I'd rather hang it from the ceiling. The LG you reviewed sounds great though.
U should take 4 cheap projectors and make them run together, not to increase the size, but to overlap the 4 images and compared to a more expensive projector...
4K canadian. At that price there are some serious contenders like the Epson 5050UB. A great 1080p version on a budget is the Epson 2250, as the 810 is still not native 4K.
Nice review but to get 300" you will need a wall at least 23 feet wide by 13 foot high. I can only imagine that kind of room in a custom large home/mansion.
Any update on your F1 league? Can I DM you my information or elsewhere. I think are we are about a week away from the season starting at Bahrain. Thanks Karl.
@@KarlConrad nice comeback. I've just taken the plunge to invest in home cinema kit (projector + screen) I'm now watching movies and films on my 120" sized screen, I don't really go into my main tv room which has a 65" 4k tv to watch stuff now. I love the fact that I'm watching stuff on such a large scale. I've set up good quality speakers to accompany the projector set up and I have to admit the experience is simply outstanding.
It's actually less washed out than most projectors. Once you get hooked on projector you become obsessed with blocking ambient light - curtains, painting the walls matte black etc. Because the darker you make the room the better the image looks.
300 inch? do you even have a tiny clue about how much lumens are you getting with this projector on a screen this large? you get 23 nits which is like trying to read a book under the moon's light

Tech videos 😂
What color is your accent wall behind the projector screen?
This line of projectors is sold like pancakes, it has been out of stock for a long time and I am on the waiting list
@karl where did you get your unboxing knife/blade? It looks quite unique 🤔
You didn’t say anything about noise levels… if I’m sitting close to it while watching - how loud does it get?
300 inch perfect. This what we are looking for .
This looks awesome! I’ve never had a projector before, but you’ve convinced me they are pretty good.
Better try for yourself first, preferably not in a lit room like this one.
Karl knows ... you gotta have 100" or more .. once you go big you can never really be satisfied with less
TRUE!
That’s what she said.. 👀
To 300" you need a wall of 22' x 14' (feets) or 6.5m x 4m (metros)
But for a 100" screen projection you need a screen or wall with more than a 7.38' x 4.1' (feets) or 1.25 x 2.25 (metros)
Can i use 300’ with small wall like 12’Wx8’H and overrall to ceiling and other walls? I need it overrall to the ceiling even other both side wall too.

thanks!
"Once you go big it's hard to go back" 😍😉
Hey dude, what do mom and dad do for a living? They do pretty well don’t they?
Love these awesome vids, the projector looks amazing 🤩
You need a dark energy screen to bring up that daytime contrast👍
Loved this projector!! ❤️
🤔
Mental how many videos you make! Keep going, and making great content of course!
thanks! hope you enjoy this one 🙌🏻

Sweet Jesus I should’ve gotten this for Justice League 😍
Why, is there the ability to play it at double speed?
I got a 4K viewsonic refurbished for under 500. My screen size is 120+

Someone needs to let him know that's not a 300 inch screen. Or do we keep playing along?

What is your projection screen?
A 4K 300 inch projector under $3000 ?! 🤩
HEY KARL WHAT PROJECTOR IS GOOD FOR CALL OF DUTY ?
Seriously thinking about this one for a 200 inch screen for a multi use room.
For multi room this would be perfect as my LG is in my living room. Works great for anytime of the day!
Yes!!
I’ll stick with my 77” LG OLED.
Yes, given that against what I see on this video, I would too.

Not a review. It's an ad.
"when you go big hard to go back" lol Thats what she said
4:53 it's a show, not a movie 👀
Why not go with a short throw?
@karl we have a large space and wanted to fill a 225 inch screen. Would you recommend this projector?
I have one and yes I'd recommend it.
Nice spec but if it’s not short throw it’s not for me
I was hoping that 4k laser projectors would be a bit more inexpensive by now. I know there are short throw laser projectors but I'd rather hang it from the ceiling. The LG you reviewed sounds great though.
Price is a bit high but it's totally worth it. Trust me, I own this projector.

The Epson has a bad screen door effect, the LG is certified as 4k even though it has pixel shifting technology.
*Imagine getting a heart from Karl Conrad.* 🥰
imagine the possibilities
@@KarlConrad 😮
what does a native 1920x1080 picture look like at the bigger 150"-300" range? Also has anyone tried rear screen projection?
Just curious, why do you use the Xbox series S over the Xbox Series X?
Nice review but to get 300" you will need a wall at least 23 feet wide by 13 foot high.
I can only imagine that kind of room in a custom large home/mansion.
Ya I don't think what he showed was 300 inches. I have a 150" and that looked about the same size as what he showed on the 2nd wall
and you also need a brighter projector than this one.
@@tiagojordao4105 definitely but if u can control the light in the room, it helps lots.
@@Chase023 of course. But then you might as well buy a proper projector for a dedicated room.
when 300 inch became 300 cm ...
I have a 4K Epson projector I love it much better then TVs , mines on a 110” screen amazing picture
Than.
NOT then.
@karl where did you get your unboxing knife/blade? It looks quite unique 🤔
It doesn't get more than 2500 lumens. So how is it getting up to 300 inches?
It actually has all 2700 lumens with no loss with iris wide open.
I was planning to buy this project but add it to my blacklist because it doesn't support 3D
Now days I don't understand the need to waste space and weight for IN-speaker sound. Just having Bluetooth and stereo connection would be great.
What short throw options do you recommend for this quality?
you can't get anything close to 300" in a small space. You would have to pull the projector way back to get even a 150" screen.
EXACTLY!! Seems like someone is fooling around!
About 10 inches per foot away from projection surface...meaning you can get a screen bigger than any TV in an avg size room.
Links to purchase in Canada?
how far back can it be? would still get a big picture with 9-10 feet away?
About 10inches per foot. 9 feet will give you a 90inch screen....
am I the only one who thinks projectors dont look better than a oled tv?
the video never said it looked as good as a TV - now how much is a 150" oled?
Any update on your F1 league? Can I DM you my information or elsewhere. I think are we are about a week away from the season starting at Bahrain. Thanks Karl.
0:40 that's what she said😂
I wish I have projector I can't afford to buy it... 💔😢
Where i can find this one ?
What projector screen is this?
@Karl Conrad - What are the Details of the Projector Screen you have setup there?
Price and Details would be lovely...
YES . Id like to know too
I too would like to know
How far this have to be installed to get 300in
25-30ft.
Looks like a giant Xbox One S
Where you bought it from? Lg site says out of stock.
If you do promotion and have a lot of subscribers the company will send their product to you before it is released retail
Hi Karl. How are you?
$10,000 I’ll be your mfn Tv for $5,000
🤦🏽♂️🤣🤣🤣
You're better off getting a short throw 4k for that price
It's 4K resolution...it doesn't cost 4K. The Viewsonic px747-4k runs about 1200, I got mine refurbished for under 500.

Price
$2999 but has been going on sale every other week for about $2600

Watching your video on mute, looks like you're conducting a symphony.
0:38 That's what she said
is it just me or does it look super washed out in that room? or is that the camera is not picking up the true quality?
This is just the nature of projectors and he main reason people don’t use projectors instead of TVs for casual everyday viewing
