wow impressive for the small Samsung... And quality for a blank wall is crazy good... Also the music is very good for the smaller 2.1 system... Thank you for the video
Picture is truly amazing. Great color accuracy, deep blacks. Frankly, audio quality surprised me. I just wish they could have collaborated with Harman Kardon just like Vava did, especially since Samsung already has some kind of partnership with them based on their premium soundbars. Hoping to see that in the next version.
It's incredible, especially considering it's projecting on just a blank wall. Better than Vava and Optoma P1. Probably on par with LG HU85LA, but I haven't tested that one yet.
Great brief vid. Cheers! Planing to buy but undecided between optoma cinemax p2 and this one. All things considered, a deal breaker for me is now placement. Finding cool furniture piece is a pain for USTs. So, was wondering how many "cm" from the wall to the front of the projector where the speakers are in this vid? Thanks for the help!
If the distance from wall is the deal breaker, try Vava. It has the shortest throw ratio. Only 7 inches from wall for 100 inch image. Samsung needs about 11 inches. it was the same reason i ended up going with Vava after careful consideration. I have a brief video online for Vava. Quality is almost comparable to Samsung. Price is better. App store is lacking though. Biggest edge they have over Samsung is the customer service. Incredibly responsive. Will be doing another video with an ALR screen soon.
You just helped me make up my mind if I really want this short throw from Samsung. I'm also planning to just use a blank white wall for it. That looks really bright for a projector. Do you know if the brightness is on par with their qled TVs?
In a compkteley dark room, yes. But, remember, brightness isn't everything. Plenty of budget projectors are bright. Contrast, color accuracy, sharpness they all matter. You won't be disappointed. Just don't order from Samsung.
@@zas786 Thank you. Also would you know if the image of this projector can be reduced to a smaller size, maybe around 60 or 70 inches when moved closer to the wall? I want it for different size abilities. I just don't know if I can fit such a big projector screen in my room.
@@airfr3eze from 11 inches away, you get 100 inch image. Closer it is , smaller the image. Frankly, if 60 to 70 inches is the image size you want, you are better off getting a top qled tv for half the price. The whole point of a ultra short throw projector like this is the huge theater like image in a smaller room where you can't use a conventional projector.
@@MrMedia636 I had a bad experience. Shipping took forever. They sent me a defective unit. Return was a nightmare. Maybe, you will have better luck. If you are prime member, makes sense to buy from Amazon.
@Zamir Syed - Thanks for the review. Did you get the borders straight with this Projector at all and if so what did you do? - Projecting on a flat wall. Do you see flickers on the wall even if the Projector is switched off via Remote ? Do you know If Samsung suggests taking the power cable of the Projector off the plug when not watching?
For the edges to be perfectly straight, you will need a flawless wall. Any flaws in the wall, and you will see some waviness. Although, with the multi point keystone, you can play around and get it pretty straight. You have invested a lot in this projector, so go for an alr/clr screen. Just like a tv, you will keep this plugged in even when off. As for the flickering on the wall when the projector is turned off, shouldn't be happening. Could be a defect. Better to contact Samsung.
@@zas786 regular price is over $2300 here in Sweden, but through work I get benefits from for ex. Samsung so right now its $1388. If I was looking for a TV I could get 75inch 8k for under $2200, but I got a projector screen for free and then I saw the price for this projector so :D
I have a fixed TV console with a depth of only 500mm (50cm). For a 90” screen, it will need 589mm. Can you let me know how far back the front feet is and I will see if the projector can protrude out from the TV console slightly (by about 89mm).
great video! can you please tell me what is the optimal viewing distance for 90" cinematic projection? my sofa is three meters from the projection wall and i'm thinking 90'' (which is the smallest projection option for this model) will be too big for cinematic experience. thanx.
This is an ultra short throw projector, which means it can be placed almost against the wall. In your case, for a 90 inch image you need it just 10 inches (.25 meters) from the wall. To get the most out of this amazing projector, I would advise to go bigger if your wall allows. Try 120 inches. For 120 inch image, you only need about 16 inches (.4 meters) distance from the wall.
@@zas786 thank you for quick response. i'm not asking you about projector distance from the wall, that is quite clear. i am asking - is it too close to watch 90" movie projection from a 3 meter viewing distance?
@@dovlahertz5843 that's a personal preference thing. In my home theater, i have a 133 inch screen and my front row is about12 feet away (about 3.6 meters), so in my opinion you could easily do 100 inches from 3 meters away.
@@zas786 yes I know..I was hoping since this is Samsung they can get Google store for us I don't want that trash OS on their TVs on this moving forward.
The Tizen software on this projector is the same one as the new Qled tvs. It's a Linux based operating system and incredibly fluid and user friendly. Also, the version of play store that you find on many Sony and 0ther Android tvs is not the full version with compatibility issues for many apps. I don't work for Samsung and I think their tvs could improve in some areas, but the new app store is actually one of their stronger points.
@@zas786 ok thank you so much. I saw your review on Amazon glad to see you got your ust running nice its beautiful. Glad I returned my vava this is the one happy 4 u bro
thinking of buying this as a gift, can you let me know what happens when the projector is more or less flush against the wall? is there still a uniform image?
You can't place it flush. You have to place it based on the requirements of the image size. Check Samsung's site, they have a chart that tells you exactly how far from the wall it needs to be for a particular size screen. For a 120" screen it is 17". It also has to be a specific distance below the screen. Both measurements, height and depth, have to be exact.
@@santiagodraco yes but what happens if you do? I don't care about compromising screen size will it just be unwatchable? In terms of uniformity and geometry?
@@James-dq8bo If you put it right against the wall you'll have a super small screen size (not sure exactly) and you'll like be unable to focus (as it's not designed to be that close). Waiting on my new LSP9T to arrive so I can't test that theory. In any case you must adhere to their specs on placement for a given screen size.
@@santiagodraco I have the lsp7 infront of me now and geometry is fine out of the box just had to set the focus for close as possible, only down side is the image is about 60" when flush against the wall and about 80" when 4" away
Well, projector image is "usually" inferior to the one from TV. However, the gap between the two has gotten smaller and smaller in the last couple of years, and this one is probably the best i have tested. Also, keep in mind, a 120 inch 4k tv (if it even exists) could cost you more than $60,000.
@@zas786so the gap for this between itself and TV is small. Is it noticeable straight away, is it still good though? In all reviews it looks washed but it's been recorded. Would you say wow it looks good
@@zas786 I am not buying a dark screen. Will I be disappointed you think?I thought these would have to look good without a screen. Was going to buy it later today. Please get back and let me know
@@A.Lapadat I can tell you that image looks amazing. Even without screen, on a blank wall, I was more than impressed. You can use the link in my description.

Ultra short throw projector work better with darker screens. But, if anyone is spending the money to buy this, my suggestion is to get a screen specifically designed for ultra short throw projectors. These absorb light from below and reflect light from any other angle.
I have used Optoma P1. Samsung is the better projector. Better app store. HDR looks much better compared to optoma. Colors are more true to life. I would pick Samsung over Optoma.

Are you happy with the picture quality? how does it perform in a brightly lit room?
pro tip: you can watch series at flixzone. Me and my gf have been using them for watching lots of of movies lately.
Looks great! How hot does it run, and is the fan loud? My previous experiences with projectors have resulted in them doubling as space heaters...
It's whisper quite. You can't compare it to any other projectors you may have tried before. One of the best.

LSP7T single laser and LSP9T is triple laser. What is the difference?
Triple laser just gives it much better brightness, contrast levels and a shorter throw distance.

$3,500 for this model. Higher end one costs $6,500.
In line with optoma and LG.
