Videos like this make me want even more something I've requested in the past: find the cheapest or lowest-rated 4KTV you can get in the UK, then run it through your regular gauntlet of testing. So many of the TVs and projectors you review are for the most discerning videophiles, which makes sense, but I think it would be nice to put in perspective how good modern high-end and mid-range displays are. And I think it would be a fun video regardless. :P
hisense and tcl have better cheap TVs if you want to look at some recommendations. the bigger brands do not care about their low range lines so they mostly suck
@Hronis Kostopoulos True, tbh. It's a bell curve of high-priced gear that enthusiasts are really into, and past that, the people who are getting the REAL top stuff, unless they are in the cinema business, could care less about tinkering with each little setting.
Bought a 120” screen and projector March 2020, best thing I ever bought. Never looked back now I enjoy tv shows and movies on my 120” every night makes me feel like I’m in the movie. I sit only 10’ from the screen the immersion is awesome.
More content pls Vincent. Philips 807 is getting superb reviews online. A very strange LG CS set has been released. Would be good to see a review of the LZ1500. Thoughts on the huge, early S95B 55" price drops. Etc.
Vincent, are you no longer going to review the TCL C935? Would be great if you address all of us who follow you and have been waiting for the TCL C935 review since months now. Thank you in advance
@@hdtvtest Vincent, please test the gaming input lag on Local Dimming High. What local dimming setting did you use for the C835 input lag test? Apparently it is around 33ms at 60Hz on local dimming high, much more than is shown in your review of the C835.
@@hdtvtest Vincent, I have a technical question I'm hoping you can answer. I recently plugged a sound bar into my eArc port of the LG c1. I immediately noticed when gaming on my Xbox series x the picture became clearer,more detailed, smoother. Is it bc one HDMI cable is handling picture & the other one sound, so they each have more bandwidth available to transmit information? It was the only possibility I could think of but I'm not an expert. I would like to hear your thoughts and may make an interesting topic for a video
The concept of projectors are interesting and how far they come when it comes to technology, every time I think of projectors I think of school and those PowerPoints back in the day. *old music plays*
Every time I see a projector review, I get excited. Then I come down with a bump when I see it's the usual, not fit for purpose end of video conclusion. Judder on 24 and 50FPS. In fact, EVERYTHING I will be watching. Will we ever have a projector made for showing films and 50 FPS TV?? I'm not optimistic.
Thanks, Vincent. Big fan and I enjoy your sense of humor. I own 2 LG OLEDs which are fantastic - you have not led me wrong. I’d enjoy seeing more UST reviews, particularly the LG CineBeam HU915QE and QB, as well as the Samsung models, in a “shoot out” of sorts.
Something odd I was a bit surprised by is that LG may still either be making or have plenty of stock of the NON-EVO panels they are using them in the B series (I think) but they are surprisingly using them in the (new) CS series too. Which has be a little worried that they might potentially arbitarily use them on the C1's they seem to have been pulling out from heck know where too - I hope they don't go back to using the older panels on new runs of the C1 as lots of people would want the C1 over the C2 or CS let alone the B series because it has not have some feature strip the C1/G1 has had. Shame really that they came up with a new brand and kinda got it backwards with the CS - but if the current C1's are the same and have the evo panel now - you will at least get a lower energy rating and to be honest that is reason enough to change all the products over to them anyway. I think LG has a habit of competing with themselves though and really they'd be better off making fewer (better) models in great volume and not wasting time on the A & B series at all. The G series at least justifies itself as a wall hanger.
Hi Vincent! What do you think: I want to buy a new tv, should I wait for 2023 LG MLA technology (hopefully also for Panasonic) or second generation Sony QD? Or just buy the A95K now? Thanks!
If you have a chance, would be nice to hear from you about the Formovies Theater. Also a top 5 of the best projector, a regular projector list and a short throw projector list, if this isn't asking too much. Keep up the great work.
I just ordered the HU715QW. I’ve been very happy with my C9 65” in the living room and my C1 48” upstairs as an Xbox Series X gaming monitor, so I figured it was time to go big for casual gaming in the loft for my kids & guests for Wii/Xbox 360/general tv/movie use and felt that this UST projector stuck a great balance between performance and price. Now to pick a good screen for it (I have it narrowed down to either an Elite Screen and a Vivid Storm so far). Looking forward to the big screen cinema-like experience 🍿
I say this as an OLED fan: PLEASE make more Projector reviews. I want head to head comparisons between Sony's flagship projector vs JVC's flagship projector (and other brands too).
Hello Vincent, I would like to thank you for your test which confirmed my purchase of this projector. Since my purchase I have been looking for adjustments that could improve my use. Autocal is still not compatible unfortunately. Could you please provide us with the calibration settings you made for this test?
I've always been curious why the input lag on so many projectors is much higher than tvs. I have 3 different projectors, all DLP, but the very first one I got is actually just fine with gaming. I've never noticed any difference compared to my tv, input lag wise . The other 2 however have very noticeable input lag, even with smooth motion turned off. I've never understood why the first one works just fine, even with 2D to 3D conversion, but the other 2 feels like I'm skating on ice when moving a character.
I know projectors are not the main focus here but I'd love to see like the top 3 HDR projectors really examined by VT with an eye toward accurate creative intent. Something like an Epson Pro Cinema LS11000 vs other offerings would be very interesting as TVs start pushing into the 100+ inch range the projectors normally cover.
Great review, would be nice to see more of this video! CN you review the formovie Theater? Seems one if the best this year into Erma of black and accuracy!! Thanks a lot and keep on going, your video are amazing
Hey i am a huge fan and I have wondered how iPhone 14pro max would do against best tv of 2022 as its now rated for 1600nits Dolby vision/HDR. Since last time 12pro max review you did against a Sony reference monitor where iphone did excellently I want to see what new 14pro series can do.
I'd love to see a comparison against a £5000 Apple Pro XDR display and a MacBook Pro 2021 XDR display and see if it's worth the price tag. Even see how close it stacks up against your £30k reference monitor. Like
Anyone notice LG launched a new OLED range? Can't seem to find any information or reviews on it tho, LG CS6 range looks very similar to the C1 range... anyone have any idea?
Doesn't seem like LG fixed any of the issues from the AU810P. No 24p support and the DTM is still not working right. That's why I got rid of it, HDR was borderline unwatchable unless you opened the iris, which ruins the black levels.
Hi Vincent, question for you if you would please. How would i go about color calibrating a projector like this UST variant, or a normal projector... for perfect white point balance to achieve a proper greyscale for the lowest Delta E values? My only previous experience is using an Xrite DTP94 to calibrate my old Trinitron PC CRT with WinDAS & HCFR.. :(

ARC and eARC uses the same mentality as most networking gear. Think of ARC being a southbound one lane street vs the fast one way northbound multilane highway of the main HDMI signal itself. eARC takes advantage of the unused HDMI over ethernet signals (i think) to increase bandwidth to allow for height based and lossless audio.
IN America, the BEST Budget 2022 TV in pic quality & blks hands down , as sales like HOT cakes right now & hard to find anywhere in stock is Hisense U8H...I'm trying getting it in 75 inch for weeks now, just impossible!
Surprised you only mentioned viewing in a dark room and not also the importance of the surface being projected onto. Something important to consider budgeting for when looking at projectors. You can easily spend more money on an excelent projector screen than on the projector itself :P
Very true ... especially for the very steep projection-angle of laser tvs using a specific highend screen is crucial and massively improves the picture (perfect: SoftFresnel)
Not quite on topic, but Samsung must be killing it with their TVs and sound bars. Often talked about highly and to my surprise, on RTINGS both their sound bars and TVs are ranked "best" right now. Ughhhh. I need to upgrade these things. Still have a 2018 TCL R617 and the 2020 Vizio 46" 5.1.4 sound bar. I like both a lot, but to get modern features I already need to upgrade both.

@@marcuscole8796 I am not claiming the C935 can display blacks better than an OLED! The pictures you saw are EXACTLY what I see in a pitch black room. We can talk numbers all you want buddy, yes OLEDs are better with blacks but the average user will not be able to tell the difference with a top mini LED like the C935. That's how good they have become. The HDR pop is immense.
For sure you can ... but ... most probably this remote will not be compatible with a LG tv. You should ask LG's customer support re this issue ... prior to getting one.
i don't know why not just buy 85 inch cheap tv and get a little bit closer for 10 times better viewing experience and cheaper (you still can view it from far away 4 meters almost and still be above the 30" recommended angle)
What about one of the "best budget" cinema experiences, benq w1800i for example? , many people would actually be considering buying one of these things. It would be great if you did 3 of these ,.pushed them as best as they could go and compared them. That would he fantastic.. Acerv6820i is another kind. Thanks so much.
The EU ecodesign guidelines were released already in 2019 ... ALL ! 2021 and 2022 tvs are already fulfilling the current limits (valid since March 1st, 2021) ! Starting March 1st, 2023 these efficiency limit will get slightly more demanding ... that's all: the already "in place" requirements will be updated (improved by 16% to 18% depending on panel resolution). Besides from that ALL manufacturers know these guidelines for many years now ... earlier than the official release in 2019 ... they very well know how they have to react to meet these requirements ! (e.g. LG with the use of "evo" panel at minimum and at an increased rate of using the "EX" panel) So, what's your problem ? ... we (the consumers) are benefitting from these regulations through getting tvs which use less energy and have an even increased durability !
@@marcuscole8796 Again nothing in the testing process changes next year, the new testing process and labels were introduced in 2019 already. What changes is the that G rated TV's, PC Monitors and other displays that fall under the regulation would not allowed to be sold within the EU as the minimum EEI rating allowed would be F. Please if you don't understand the problem just avoid commenting, this can become a serious problem and is already has being covered by other channels.
@@DOGMA1138 Really ? ... Telling ME I do not understand !? lol ... Are you stupid or just incapable of reading the official EU papers ? ... again: the energy labels ("F", "G") have NOTHING to do with the EEI requirements for being allowed to sell a product in the EU. The new EEI limits are: 1. HD-displays: 0.75 (current: 0.90) 2. UHD-displays: 0.90 (current: 1.10) 3. 8K-displays: 0.90 (current: n.a. ... 8K-tvs haven't had an EEI-limit yet ... new for 2023) These EEI-limits have NOTHING to do with the "F" or "G" energy labels !!! "G" tvs will again have a "G" energy label next year ... and MAY of course be sold ... AS LONG ... as they meet the EU design requirements (the minimum EEI) Just ... read the official EU reglementations ... prior to writing bs here or parroting nonsense from other incomptetent sources ! ... the EU rules is all what counts for selling tvs next year ... not what some idiots think (and spread around) about energy labels ... which are entirely irrelevant re getting a sales allowance for a product in 2023.
Vincent, please do a proper review like you do for a ROG Swift PG42UQ - it deserves it, since it is the first "affordable" OLED monitor that can fit onto an office desk and can do it all (mac/PC/PS5/Xbox)! Thank you and keep doing great content!
@Telford21: We have only published the results for the top 2 spots in all our TV shootouts, as explained in a previous video here: ruclips.net/video/Jys0CTXtPX0/видео.htmlm57s
@Mike S.: Why do you need more results than the top two in each category? We have explained our reasoning for doing this since our 2017 shootout: ruclips.net/video/Jys0CTXtPX0/видео.htmlm57s Because of unfounded accusations from people like you, next year we are seriously considering cancelling the shootout (the only TV shootout to be blinded, to include Panasonic, Philips, etc.) altogether, making this our last ever shootout. Thank you for pushing us in that direction.
@Mike S.: As we explicitly stated at 11:02 in this video, if you like to watch movies, go for the Panasonic LZ2000, or if Panasonic TVs are not available in your country, the Sony A95K. People like you can always ignore expert advice, and find excuses to justify or withdraw from a purchase decision even if we posted all the scores. Because of people like you who don't seem to appreciate the amount of hard work and dedication that has gone into carrying out a blinded shootout, we are seriously considering cancelling our TV shootout once and for all, and that's that.
@@SinusPrimus Once again, resolution has nothing to do with display size. It’s to do with FOV (size and distance). Resolution is like quality you get regardless. Huge 360p screen is not any worse than tiny 360p screen, same thing you get, same quality you get.
For 2.5 mtrs. viewing distance 55" is too small ... at least as long as you want to benefit from 4K resolution. To be able to do so you'll need at least 65" for this distance ... or new, electro-optical eyes ;-) Nevertheless, reducing the viewing distance to 2.0 mtrs. would also do the trick for 55" ...
@@marcuscole8796 i can clearly see the difference between 4K and FHD and I hate to see Pixels. And I want to reduce Sound reflections from my hifi Stereo speakers. 65 would be to big. Greetz from 🇨🇭
Unfortunately, cheaper projectors just aren’t worth it anymore. £3k will get you a 65” Sony X96K on Black Friday. Maybe when I can afford to spend £20k plus on the latest JVC I’ll consider it. It’s ok if you really must have the biggest screen possible though I suppose.
I guess for movie freaks it is, when $5000 is the usual minimum for real quality. It’s not cheap (or worth it, this projector), but people are clearly ready to pay more, now when these UST projectors are coming mainstream.
Since when has anything been real 4K other than expensive JVC and Sony projectors? Even top Epsons are not. But indeed this projector is totak crap and not worth a review, nothing new or good in it.

HDR and black performance ... that's for sure something you can only check out in person :-)
@@marcuscole8796 I am not claiming the C935 can display blacks better than an OLED! The pictures you saw are EXACTLY what I see in a pitch black room. We can talk numbers all you want buddy, yes OLEDs are better with blacks but the average user will not be able to tell the difference with a top mini LED like the C935. That's how good they have become. The HDR pop is immense.
TY for the Test!!!❤❤❤
can you buy somewhere LG magic remote with backlight ?
For sure you can ... but ... most probably this remote will not be compatible with a LG tv. You should ask LG's customer support re this issue ... prior to getting one.
Dear Viney Could you review the 2022 LG CS oled tv 😎
Please test Sony Z9K…
i don't know why not just buy 85 inch cheap tv and get a little bit closer for 10 times better viewing experience and cheaper (you still can view it from far away 4 meters almost and still be above the 30" recommended angle)
Hdtvtest needs to look into nreal ar glasses. 220 inch oled
What about one of the "best budget" cinema experiences, benq w1800i for example? , many people would actually be considering buying one of these things. It would be great if you did 3 of these ,.pushed them as best as they could go and compared them. That would he fantastic.. Acerv6820i is another kind. Thanks so much.
Hey I see you have done work on these.. ruclips.net/video/Jp3u-mA-pkQ/видео.html. Am checking out the XGIMI now . Thanks
Imagine if someone made a modern crt with a laser instead of cathode Ray tube.
Can you please make a video about the new EU EEI requirements that are about to throw a shit covered wrench into the TV and general display market?
The EU ecodesign guidelines were released already in 2019 ... ALL ! 2021 and 2022 tvs are already fulfilling the current limits (valid since March 1st, 2021) !
Starting March 1st, 2023 these efficiency limit will get slightly more demanding ... that's all: the already "in place" requirements will be updated (improved by 16% to 18% depending on panel resolution).
Besides from that ALL manufacturers know these guidelines for many years now ... earlier than the official release in 2019 ... they very well know how they have to react to meet these requirements ! (e.g. LG with the use of "evo" panel at minimum and at an increased rate of using the "EX" panel)
So, what's your problem ? ... we (the consumers) are benefitting from these regulations through getting tvs which use less energy and have an even increased durability !
@@marcuscole8796 No they aren't they are nearly all rated G which means that in March 2023 they won't be able to be sold....
@@marcuscole8796 Again nothing in the testing process changes next year, the new testing process and labels were introduced in 2019 already.
What changes is the that G rated TV's, PC Monitors and other displays that fall under the regulation would not allowed to be sold within the EU as the minimum EEI rating allowed would be F.
Please if you don't understand the problem just avoid commenting, this can become a serious problem and is already has being covered by other channels.
@@DOGMA1138 Really ? ... Telling ME I do not understand !? lol ... Are you stupid or just incapable of reading the official EU papers ? ... again: the energy labels ("F", "G") have NOTHING to do with the EEI requirements for being allowed to sell a product in the EU.
The new EEI limits are:
1. HD-displays: 0.75 (current: 0.90)
2. UHD-displays: 0.90 (current: 1.10)
3. 8K-displays: 0.90 (current: n.a. ... 8K-tvs haven't had an EEI-limit yet ... new for 2023)
These EEI-limits have NOTHING to do with the "F" or "G" energy labels !!!
"G" tvs will again have a "G" energy label next year ... and MAY of course be sold ... AS LONG ... as they meet the EU design requirements (the minimum EEI)
Just ... read the official EU reglementations ... prior to writing bs here or parroting nonsense from other incomptetent sources ! ... the EU rules is all what counts for selling tvs next year ... not what some idiots think (and spread around) about energy labels ... which are entirely irrelevant re getting a sales allowance for a product in 2023.
I'm poor. But as soon as I get the jackpot I'll contemplate buying this one 😂
Informative
Vincent, please do a proper review like you do for a ROG Swift PG42UQ - it deserves it, since it is the first "affordable" OLED monitor that can fit onto an office desk and can do it all (mac/PC/PS5/Xbox)! Thank you and keep doing great content!
HDMI 2.1?
No, the 60Hz projector doesn't support 4K 120Hz.

@Telford21: We have only published the results for the top 2 spots in all our TV shootouts, as explained in a previous video here: ruclips.net/video/Jys0CTXtPX0/видео.htmlm57s
@Mike S.: Why do you need more results than the top two in each category? We have explained our reasoning for doing this since our 2017 shootout: ruclips.net/video/Jys0CTXtPX0/видео.htmlm57s
Because of unfounded accusations from people like you, next year we are seriously considering cancelling the shootout (the only TV shootout to be blinded, to include Panasonic, Philips, etc.) altogether, making this our last ever shootout. Thank you for pushing us in that direction.
@Mike S.: As we explicitly stated at 11:02 in this video, if you like to watch movies, go for the Panasonic LZ2000, or if Panasonic TVs are not available in your country, the Sony A95K. People like you can always ignore expert advice, and find excuses to justify or withdraw from a purchase decision even if we posted all the scores.
Because of people like you who don't seem to appreciate the amount of hard work and dedication that has gone into carrying out a blinded shootout, we are seriously considering cancelling our TV shootout once and for all, and that's that.
Vinny wheres your QD-OLED Vs WOLED video ??
Or you can source a TCL 98X9C Pro and job done
tcl plssss
That's what she said
Why not do their newest model???
I got my frist 4k tv and I just discovered 4K is 4096x2160 and UHD is 3840x2160. Can you explain the differences and why TV makers lie (oh surprise)?
Thanks!
The distance between me and my tv is 2,5 meters. 55 inch is enough. 😎👍 Greetz from 🇨🇭
No 55 inches is small. Very small. I sit 3.5 meters from my 120 inches screen. That’s immersion.
@@thomasmorel1447 then you need 65 inch. 😁 How about 720p on your 120 screen?
@@SinusPrimus Once again, resolution has nothing to do with display size. It’s to do with FOV (size and distance). Resolution is like quality you get regardless. Huge 360p screen is not any worse than tiny 360p screen, same thing you get, same quality you get.
For 2.5 mtrs. viewing distance 55" is too small ... at least as long as you want to benefit from 4K resolution.
To be able to do so you'll need at least 65" for this distance ... or new, electro-optical eyes ;-)
Nevertheless, reducing the viewing distance to 2.0 mtrs. would also do the trick for 55" ...
@@marcuscole8796 i can clearly see the difference between 4K and FHD and I hate to see Pixels. And I want to reduce Sound reflections from my hifi Stereo speakers. 65 would be to big. Greetz from 🇨🇭
Unfortunately, cheaper projectors just aren’t worth it anymore. £3k will get you a 65” Sony X96K on Black Friday. Maybe when I can afford to spend £20k plus on the latest JVC I’ll consider it. It’s ok if you really must have the biggest screen possible though I suppose.
A $2500 projector is considered affordable?
I guess for movie freaks it is, when $5000 is the usual minimum for real quality. It’s not cheap (or worth it, this projector), but people are clearly ready to pay more, now when these UST projectors are coming mainstream.
Darn, 6 inches was supposed to be the average.
3 grand isn't affordable homie.
DLP and not even true 4K ? what is this s*** ??
Since when has anything been real 4K other than expensive JVC and Sony projectors? Even top Epsons are not. But indeed this projector is totak crap and not worth a review, nothing new or good in it.
The only good LG I've ever owned was a refridgerator.
first
This is so bad.
Not gonna buy any projectors in the next 10 years.
Windows HDR calibration + PC settings for C1/C2? Please!!
please review formovie ust. is supposedly supports dolby vision!!!!
