JVC launches new 4K HDR DLP projector

JVC has whipped the covers off a new 4K HDR DLP projector: the LX-UH1.

The spec-sheet is comprehensive. 3840 x 2160 4K Ultra HD resolution, 2000 lumens of brightness, HDR10 and HLG support, a pair of HDMI inputs (one of which features full speed/full spec HDCP2.2 compliance) and a dynamic contrast ratio claimed to be 100,000:1 are particularly enticing.

Elsewhere, JVC is making much of the LX-UH1's versatility as it relates to installation. It features a +/- 60% vertical and +/- 23% horizontal lens shift which, in combination with 1.6x wide-zoom lens, should make it fairly straightforward to install in all but the most trying environments.

Simon Lucas is a technology journalist, with a strong emphasis on the audio/video side of consumer electronics and home entertainment, and has been since 2003. He worked for more than 14 years at What Hi-Fi?, the last six of which were spent as the editor of the magazine and website. Since then he's written for Wired, The Guardian, TechRadar, Stuff, GQ and many more besides.

In the course of his career he's developed a pretty deep understanding of the way both the publishing and the electronics industries function, as well as the sort of intimate knowledge of audio products (both specific and general) that can make people very wary of him at parties.
