Samsung has used its virtual press conference event 'Life Unstoppable' today to announce The Premiere 4K laser projector.

The ultra short throw model is the world's first laser projector to support HDR10+, the Dolby Vision-rivalling dynamic HDR format that Samsung created in 2017. That support, in addition to its 2800 ANSI lumens peak brightness, means it should be able to take advantage of a wider, more nuanced colour spectrum offered by HDR10+ material.

The only projector in Samsung's burgeoning lifestyle AV range, The Premiere comes in two flavours: the LSP9T, which can produce a 130-inch display, and the LSP7T, which is capable of beaming an image up to 120 inches.

Samsung's The Premiere is expected to launch in the US and Europe later this year, although pricing and a release date are yet to be confirmed.
