LG Electronics will unveil an extension to its line of portable solid state projectors, the new "LG ProBeam" laser projector at CES 2017 from January 5-8 in the Las Vegas Convention Center.
The current crop of LED projectors max out at 1000-1100 lumens where they are specced at 1400 lumens. With colour accurate settings delivering as low as 600-700 lumens. This still made for a breaktrough in RGB LED projectors, though. The new laser-phosphor light engine is specced at 2000 lumens, and given their general higher brightness it should better the LED projectors' output. Making it applicable to living room and general Home Theater use.
LG claims its "ProBeam (HF80JA) is ideal for the home cinema experience, because it is equipped with an advanced laser engine that produces up to 2,000 lumens of brightness, enabling viewers to enjoy video content even in a bright room".
The LG ProBeam has a slim, sleek design, which makes it more portable, thanks to its innovative I-shaped laser engine. Employing a compact standing-type design, the 4.6-pound LG ProBeam is the industry's lightest Full HD laser projector in the brightness range of 2,000 lumens. In addition, the LG ProBeam's classic look allows it to blend in with any interior décor.
With the innovative Sound Sync Adjustment, the LG ProBeam can be paired with any Bluetooth audio product such as an external speaker or headphones. What's more, the LG ProBeam's Wireless Mirroring feature takes advantage of Miracast to project content from smart devices onto a large projection screen. The unique four corner keystone and vertical auto keystone features allow consumers to find the best image setting and to balance images quickly and easily.
The LG ProBeam is equipped with LG's award-winning webOS Smart TV platform, giving consumers access to the ever-growing number of streaming services and other desired programs based on location and availability. In addition, LG's Magic Remote Control allows for easy navigation of the webOS interface. The LG ProBeam's dynamic features make it easier to enjoy movies in the living room, watch sporting events in the backyard or stream TV shows on a camping trip.
"As a leader in LED projectors worldwide, LG is confident its expertise in the home entertainment sector will make its first compact laser projector a hit with consumers," said Tim Alessi, head of product marketing at LG Electronics USA. "LG is proud to continue pioneering the home cinema experience in dynamic new ways."
