Summer isn't the best time of year to use a projector, what with longer daylight hours meaning less time in optimal viewing conditions. But LG's new model might be different.
The LG CineBeam HU915QE provides 3700 lumens of brightness, which is more than rival ultra short throw models. That should be bright enough to enjoy in daylight without drawing the curtains, so it could be a viable alternative to a TV.
The HU915QE will also produce a massive 120in picture when placed just 18cm from the wall. Such models are much more practical than traditional projectors, as they don't need to be ceiling mounted; just place it near the wall, and let it do its thing.
Move it closer, and you get a smaller, though still pretty large picture. A distance of just 5.6cm yields an image 90 inches across – still way bigger than most TVs.
The price for the LG CineBeam HU915QE is yet to be announced, but look out for it in the next couple of months – just in time for your summer viewing.
