I’m a big fan of projectors, having a lovely 4K one myself, it’s great for movie night, but it has one issue with around 80ms of latency, it’s pretty crap for gaming. That’s where the new GT3500HDR grabs my attention, as it’s built for gaming from the ground up. It offers up a Full HD 1080p image, which is going to be more than enough for gaming and movie nights. However, with a brightness of around 3800 lumens, it’s extremely bright, and thanks to its Optoma’s DuraCore laser technology it should deliver exceptional contrast and HDR performance compared to lamp-powered projectors, and extremely long life too, due to it not using a traditional DLP bulb configuration.
The ultra-short throw design means you place this projector pretty much right up against the wall you’re projecting on, meaning it can be placed on top of a standard TV stand/unit, and doesn’t require you to work out complicated throw ranges or deal with ceiling mounts for your projection.
Delivering superior colour performance and a 500,000:1 contrast ratio, the new ultra short throw projector provides vibrant, true-to-life visuals for watching movies, TV shows, and live sports, gaming, and remote work. Featuring an ultra-short throw lens, the GT3500HDR can display up to 100-inch images from less than one foot away (120-inch maximum) from the screen or projection surface for convenient use in any room, no matter the location.
Developed with simplicity in mind to address the demand for versatile home theatre projection options, the GT3500HDR comes in a compact size and lightweight design approximately 28% smaller than its predecessor, the GT5600, and the eco-friendly chassis is made with up to 50% PCR (Post-Consumer Recycled) plastics.
Suitable for console to PC gaming, the GT3500HDR provides an exceptional, big screen experience for avid gamers. The projector takes gaming to new heights with ultra-low input lag that is four times lower than the competing display technology with 8.6 ms at 120 Hz 1080p and 17 ms at 60 Hz 4K UHD input, giving gamers smooth and responsive gaming sessions.
Optoma’s DuraCore laser technology extends the life of the new GT3500HDR by up to six times compared to an equivalent lamp projector, offering lifetime reliability with 30,000 hours of operation in Eco mode. For consistent, long-term usage with minimal maintenance, the projector’s optical engine is airtight and dust-resistant with IP6X certification. For easy installation, the GT3500HDR is equipped with several features including four-corner correction, horizontal and vertical keystone correction, as well as 360-degree and portrait mode for flexible place and play.
“With consumers seeking flexible projection solutions for a variety of home usage scenarios, we’ve introduced our latest ultra short throw alternative with the GT3500HDR, delivering incredible brightness and true-to-life color in a new compact and environmentally friendly design,” said Billy Harrison, Product Manager at Optoma. “A suite of convenient installation features makes the GT35000HDR an ideal projector for any space and takes the big screen experience to new levels for competitive gaming, home entertainment, or home offices.”
The GT3500HDR is available for an estimated street price of $1,499.
