LG 2022 Cinebeam Laser Projectors Revealed

LG has just revealed their latest 2022 LG CineBeam 4K laser projectors. The new models are the HU715Q and the HU710P, both of which the company claims are their most advanced projectors to date, which is saying something, as their previous models are pretty amazing.

The new LG HU715Q Ultra Short Throw (UST) features sophisticated technologies including auto-brightness and the ability to create a 100-inch image when placed only 21.7 centimetres from the wall. That’s fantastic for those who don’t want or simply cannot accommodate a projector at the back of their room or on the ceiling. In fact, it’ll be far enough from the wall on a typical side table or TV unit, 21.7 centimetres really isn’t that far!

The LG HU710P is a notable upgrade to its predecessor, delivering brighter images and deeper blacks courtesy of a wheel-less hybrid laser. The HU710P comes with a MSRP of $2,499 and a more traditional long-throw design. However, the HU715Q has an MSRP $2,999, which is pretty amazing given the short-throw laser design.

What LG Had to Say

“The new CineBeam projectors are excellent choices for consumers looking to create their very own private cinemas with immersive, large-scale images that can be projected directly onto the wall or a dedicated screen. Compact and easy to set up, both models are suitable for most indoor spaces and also look great in backyards after the sun has set. Perfect for film buffs looking to add something special to their décor, the LG HU715Q has been thoughtfully designed with a premium fabric cover courtesy of Danish textile company, Kvadrat to harmonize with home furnishings and interiors.”

4K

Both units deliver a 4K resolution (3,840 x 2,160), however, the one using laser technology, not bulb protection, can deliver an impressive 2,000,000:1 contrast ratio and high peak brightness. The keystone correction with 4-, 9- and 15-point warping is fantastic too, and often you’ll find it’s barely needed at such close range, but still, a powerful tool to have. The projectors provide easy horizontal and vertical alignment which allows for flexible placement without distortion.

The LG HU715Q generates 2,500 ANSI lumens with a laser light source while the LG HU710P delivers 2,000 ANSI lumens of brightness via laser-LED hybrid technology. Both are rated for 20,000 hours of use which translated to a lifespan four times longer than conventional projector lamps, not that many new units actually use more traditional lamps anymore.

The new CineBeam projectors feature a number of advanced image-enhancing technologies for the optimal viewing experience:

  • Brightness Optimizer makes adjustments according to ambient light conditions.
  • Dynamic Tone Mapping analyzes and fine tunes each frame to support superior HDR performance for stunningly real, incredibly vivid images regardless of the content or light level of the room
  • Filmmaker Mode displays movies the way their directors intended them to be seen, replicating the exact look and feel of a theatrical release by preserving the original aspect ratio, frame rate and colors.
  • LG’s webOS smart platform offers intuitive controls and navigation with easy access to a wide range of popular streaming services including Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, Disney+, YouTube and Apple TV.
  • [LG HU715Q only] Built-in quad woofers and 2.2-channel stereo heighten the sense of immersion, addition of surround sound when connected to one or two Bluetooth speakers.

As a child still in my 30's (but not for long), I spend my day combining my love of music and movies with a life-long passion for gaming, from arcade classics and retro consoles to the latest high-end PC and console games. So it's no wonder I write about tech and test the latest hardware while I enjoy my hobbies!
