BenQ TK700STi (2021)
This short-throw 4K HDR gaming projector pairs true 3840×2160 resolution with very low input lag — about 16ms at 4K@60Hz and 8ms at 1080p@120Hz. Both video inputs are HDMI 2.0b (HDCP 2.2), so the bandwidth ceiling is 4K@60Hz rather than the 4K@120Hz of HDMI 2.1 displays. Audio leaves over a 3.5mm stereo jack, and a…

-

Epson’s 4K PRO-UHD laser home cinema projector is one of the few projectors with dual HDMI 2.1 inputs — both ports accept 4K@120Hz HDR signals at 40Gbps, well above the 18Gbps ceiling of older models. HDMI 1 carries eARC, so it returns lossless Atmos to a connected AVR over a single cable. Two USB-A ports…
-
Formovie Theater Global Edition (2022)
Formovie’s 2022 triple-laser UST projector delivers native 4K HDR with Dolby Vision and Bowers & Wilkins audio for around $3,000. Despite three HDMI 2.1-labeled inputs with eARC, VRR, and ALLM, the ports are capped at 18 Gbps bandwidth — meaning 4K@60Hz maximum, with VRR limited to a 40–120Hz sync range.

JMGO’s compact gimbal-mounted 4K portable projector uses a triple RGB laser engine with 1,100 ISO lumens and Google TV. Its two HDMI 2.1-labeled ports lack FRL support, so effective bandwidth tops out at 18 Gbps (4K@60Hz) — the 240Hz figure is internal MEMC, not HDMI input. HDMI 2 carries eARC, there’s one USB 2.0 Type-A…
-

Samsung The Freestyle 2nd Gen (2023)
Samsung’s second-generation portable FHD projector keeps its connectivity deliberately minimal.

Power comes through a USB-C port using USB Power Delivery, which also lets a compatible 50W+…
-
Samsung The Premiere LSP9T (2020)
Samsung’s flagship ultra-short-throw triple-laser projector throws a 130-inch 4K HDR image from a few centimeters off the wall.
