4K UHD

BenQ has created the Home Cinema Series to meet the "diverse needs of home entertainment enthusiasts ranging from beginners to expert connoisseurs." Joining last year's newbie-friendly 4LED projector is a brighter model plus a pro-level laser thrower.

Shenzhen-based home entertainment outfit JMGO announced a new affordable addition to its triple-laser projector line at CES 2025, and now the N1S 4K model brings portable Google TV to folks for a time-limited launch price of under a grand.

Sony tweaked its Bravia TV processing engine last year, and built two prosumer home cinema projectors around it. Now another model has joined the family, which is designed to "deliver a professional-grade cinematic HDR experience in the home."

The world's top DLP projector brand has launched a dual-laser 4K projector that's aimed at installation pros as well as home cinema enthusiasts. The HCPro-4400 is designed to dominate with "unmatched clarity and vibrant color precision."

Following a successful Kickstarter last year, home entertainment startup Valerion has now made its Plus 2 projector available for general sale. The newly renamed StreamMaster Plus 2 can put out 2,000 ISO lumens and throws 4K visuals at up to 300 inches.

Claiming the title of the world's number one 4K UHD and DLP brand, Optoma has introduced a capable new laser projector. The UHZ68LV puts out 5,000 lumens for daytime viewing, and has a maximum thrown image size of 300 inches.

The ZUH6000 from Fujifilm is unlike other ultra-short-throw projectors. It features a funky rotating lens for maximum installation flexibility, and while Fujifilm has launched similar models before it, this is the first to put out 4K visuals.

Philips is tempting players to pre-order "the ultimate gaming projector built for unparalleled performance and total immersion." The GamePix 900 boasts a high refresh rate and super-low input lag, 4K big-screen visuals and built-in sound.

After raising more than $10 million in crowdfunded cash last year, Valerion has announced the official consumer launch of its VisionMaster Pro 2 triple-laser long-throw smart projector – with Google TV loaded in for streaming entertainment.

Valerion launched a bunch of 4K projectors on Kickstarter last November, and went on to raise more than $10 million. Now the startup has officially released its VisionMaster Max at CES 2025, while also debuting its new interchangeable lens.

Ultra-short-throw projectors are a great way to replace the big-screen TV without having to endure tricky setups. But even these entertainment hubs can be large and heavy. That's certainly not true of the O2S Ultra from JMGO.

Hisense's premium home cinema ultra-short-throw projector line has evolved. The upcoming L9Q features the company's triple-laser engine for 4K Google TV with high brightness, color accuracy and contrast plus included ALR screens at up to 150 inches.
