LG isn’t waiting till CES to reveal one amongst its high-end front room gadgets for 2018: it’s a 4K HDR projector. LG claims the new UHD projector is roughly [*fr1] the scale of competitive  4K choices on the market, several of that square measure “heavy, expensive, and troublesome to install” per the corporate.

The HU80KA, in contrast, is being pitched as AN “affordable nonetheless premium device” that may output a 150-inch image in any space of your house. That image will get awfully bright, too; LG says it ace out at two,500 lumens, that makes it the company’s brightest projector nonetheless and puts it on par with what’s on the market nowadays.

On high of the 4K resolution, you furthermore may get support for HDR video with HDR10. (There’s no mention of electrical engineer Vision, sadly.) The projector are often positioned on the ground, mounted to the wall, or adorned  from the ceiling, and LG says it’ll work nice in any of these setups.

There square measure 2 7-watt speakers inbuilt, however you’ll in all probability wish to combine a soundbar with this issue at the terribly least. Audio output choices embrace optical, HDMI, and Bluetooth. The projector can play media off a USB drive, ANd conjointly helps you to attach an external keyboard and mouse.

Oh, and it runs webOS a bit like LG’s TV lineup thus it’s got most of the large streaming apps integrated out of the box.

LG isn’t nonetheless sharing the HU80KA’s valuation, however that’s par for the course with house announcements at CES. firms show you the flashy issue, and so wait a handful months before revealing the harm it’ll do to your case. For reference, a number of the “affordable” 4K projectors out there nowadays are available in just below $2,000. That’s not low cost, however I’m positively wanting forward to obtaining a preview of the HU80KA in precisely a couple of days in metropolis.
