Design
The model is designed in sleek and modern design, and according to my hundreds of projection testing, this is the cleanest ultra-short-throw projector out there right now.
The body is all white, but there is also a choice of black for those who don’t want to go with white.
On the front of the projector, there is no marking or anything written except the sensor for the remote control.
Installation
The setup took less than 5 minutes as I placed the projector on the table, and it was ready to use.
You can also mount it on the ceiling, as there are four mounting points to fix the projection system permanently.
We placed the HU915QE at a distance of 2.5 feet from the screen to get the image size of 120 inches. At the top, a small door opens up to adjust the zoom manually with the help of the focus ring.
Connectivity
The LG has kept a minimal connectivity option at the back of the projector there are three HDMI ports, two USB, power, optical digital audio output, an Ethernet LAN port, etc.
Image Quality
The LG has used DLP technology with a triple laser design, providing more excellent image quality with smooth color quality produced on the screen more naturally.
Also, it comes with a native 4k resolution and true resolving power of 8.3 million pixels or 4k pixel grids on the wall.
It covers the solid 90% DCI p3 color space that is way above the single laser RGB and below average compared to other triple lasers’ RGB true 4k projectors.
This model will work perfectly in ambient light conditions in your room even though the blinds are not on the windows due to its 2,000,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio.
With the LG brightness II optimizer feature, this projector automatically adjusts the brightness level according to lighting conditions present in the room.
Also, this model will have a hefty price tag, and still, there is no 3d support by LG, which I think is a bigger disadvantage for those viewers who like to view 3d content on a bigger screen.
Sound
According to sound quality, this model has an in-built 2.2 audio channels with a 40-watt soundbar which sounds good compared to LG’s previous model.
It is always recommended to connect external speakers to your projection system to a true cinematic experience in your room with the help of Bluetooth or optical audio output.
Smart Features
The whole projector is controlled by LG magic remote control system, which also has a google assistant voice control and Alexa voice assistant.
You can directly play Netflix, disney+, and Prime with a single touch from the remote control.
Also, Apple devices it has an Airplay feature to share or cast anything from apple device to screen.
Now the HU915QE runs on LG’s official operating system, where you can download hundreds of applications or games from their app store.
Pros
- Display image size of 100″ inches from just 2.5 feet away.
- True 4k resolution.
- Minimum noise of a fan.
- LG’s latest operating system is easy to use and will eliminate the use of the streaming device.
- The LG brightness II optimizer automatically adjusts the screen’s brightness according to the ambient light in the room.
Cons
- It is not made for professional gaming.
- The lag time in 4k is above 55ms.
- No 3d support in this premium price range.
Final Verdict
If you want a projector that does not require changing the projector’s setting and want a plug-and-play, then LG HU915QE can be a great option.
But you should know it does not have any 3d support, and you cannot play professional gaming.
I tried casual gaming, where the color combination was much more natural and detailed, with the least lag time on the screen.
Rest everything is excellent in contrast and brightness level, which will surely replace your TV.
At that moment, I thought, why should I restrict myself to a smaller screen when an alternate option like a projector is available on the market.
So, I began searching the internet for the best projectors in 2014. And to be honest, I didn't find the information I was looking for.
But then, on my friend's suggestion, I purchased a BenQ 1080p projector in 2015. After that, my love and interest in Projector started, and I kept reviewing the latest available projectors available in the market.
I wrote down each advantage and disadvantage of the current Projector model. I gave only an honest reviews to my readers on projectorsplace.com and my social media pages like Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Instagram, etc.
