Excellent Picture with Great Smart TV features
By mason stenquist on Reviewed in the United States on April 12, 2021
I was looking for an UST projector and really wanted the LG HU85LA projector which is generally considered one of the best UST projectors out there, but was hard pressed to spend that much and settled on this as a more cost effective approach. If you don't care about the smart TV features and are just going to use it with an Apple TV or something, then you'd probably be better off with the VAVA or an Optoma. I like having only one remote though and think Android TV sucks.I was a little worried about color accuracy as it uses a color wheel instead of 3 lasers like the LG, but I honestly don't think I'd be able to tell a difference. The picture looks great. The image quality does suffer a little bit in super dark scenes, especially in the middle of the day, but then a brightly lit scene will come on and just completely blow you away, so for the increase in size I'd say it is worth it.I bought this with the VAVA 100" light rejecting screen which does a great job of making the screen usable in the day time. That being said, the picture looked pretty dang good on my extremely dark green wall in dim light.I've played some turned based games on my switch on the projector and haven't noticed any lag, but that's hardly a great test. If your into twitchy shooters get a TV with a high refresh rate and lower lag.One thing that is annoying with these UST projectors is they need to be low to the ground and don't leave room for a sound bar. Luckily I found a great stand that is low enough and has a space for a sound bar (And can be even lower if you leave off the bottom legs) on WayFair, Wolla TV Stand for TVs up to 65": https://www.wayfair.com/furniture/pdp/zipcode-design-wolla-tv-stand-for-tvs-up-to-65-ar2314.html?piid=32507645Overall I'm extremely happy with my purchase and have not had any issues with it so far. The picture is bright, colorful, and huge. The interface is easy to use and has almost every app I could want (No NBA TV sadly, but that's an NBA issue as it is missing from most smart TVs).

Good while it lasted

It’s a cool product, and I specifically went with this over other models because it has an ATSC tuner, which is great. We enjoyed it for three weeks. Then the day before the Super Bowl, the picture went out. The sound still works, but the image is a black glow. We can’t even access settings or menus. Hopefully the warranty process is smooth, but quite frankly, a product that sells for thousands of dollars needs to be of better quality.UPDATE: The total turnaround time for the repair, with shipping, was a week and a half. The repaired device worked well for two days until we started experiencing startup problems at least once or twice per day. This time, however, the startup problems could be solved by unplugging the power and restarting. Still not acceptable. A little internet research said that turning off HDMI-CEC would fix the startup problem, so we went ahead and turned that off. It seems to be functioning normally now, but as mentioned originally, these are all quality problems that an expensive piece of equipment shouldn’t have.SOUND: Samsung focuses much of their advertising on how great the audio is. By design, it’s basically a soundbar bolted to the front of the device, which is an ideal layout. While the sound certainly isn’t bad, it’s worth noting that you cannot add a subwoofer without completely excluding the projector speakers and replacing them with externals. This is a frustrating oversight from what is supposed to be one of the world’s top technology companies.
