LG - HF85JA Ultra Short Throw Laser Smart Home Theater CineBeam Projector

I have been all projector since 2020. Slowly went up in quality from a budget $200 projector, then the LG HU70LA, and as of last year I’ve upgraded to the LG UST Cinebeam HW with a fresnel light rejecting screen. All were projecting 110-120”. It’s just such a better viewing experience, both on eyes and size/detail than a tv. I did pickup an LG C1 OLED for competitive gaming due to the 120hz low lag 2.1 HDMI that I use in another room now that I’ve been getting serious about gaming. I think gaming competitively is the only case where projectors fall short.

Have a short throw BenQ, a portable LG, and used to have an older variant of the LG CineBeam ultra short throw line. You didn’t specify what type of budget/use case so start with that… Some good deals spring up on FB marketplace from time to time, like an $1000 4K BenQ gaming projector a while back.

It is kinda wild how fast they got big. I got my lg ultrashort throw laser projector for about 3K a few years back and super large tvs weren't exactly cheap. One advantage is that I can easily move mine. Sure it'll be annoying to get the settings exactly right initially but less annoying than moving a 120" tv.
