[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This projector is bright, colorful, and has tons of apps.
Unfortunately, my unit has numerous problems, including not having even focus, and a lens shift that seems to be completely messed up (if I go off LG's specs).
I suspect that my issues are early build complications, and once LG gets this ironed out this will be an amazing unit, especially for the price.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received my projector and tested it out for a few hours. Definitely has amazing clarity and sharpness, almost as good as my 4K tv. Will update this review once I have gone through some more hours of viewing
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I just received my LG HU810PW and the image quality is incredible! My home theater room is still under construction, so I tested the projector on my bedroom wall and the image quality is already over my expectation. I can't wait to see it on a dedicated screen. I also love the connectivity with Disney+ and Prime... very easy to use. It would be nice to also have a direct access to Netflix, which is available on my LG smart TV. No clue why it is not available on this projector. Overall, very satisfy with the product!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This replaced 5 year old a HD lamp based projector in my dedicated home theater (black walls) so I run it on the Eco mod, lowest light output yet is still plenty bright. I feed my 4K streaming from an NVIDIA Shield Pro and of course the 4K is amazing. Initially I found the fan noise to be a little distracting when there was no dialog or content sound as the fans seems to have a higher pitch than previous projector. I added some acoustic foam on the walls adjacent to the projector and that made a big difference. I also change the mount location by lengthening the ceiling suspension arm to drop the projector and thus reduce the amount of adjustment required for key-stoning. This helped to increase the image sharpness.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am using this projector on an old 120” Severtson grey screen (0.95 gain, I believe) in a very well light-controlled room. This projector really shines (pun intended), particularly with bright/colorful content. Watching Mulan in 4K was stunning. It really was like having a 120” LCD monitor on the wall! There are many options to tweak the settings to your preferences. I have few gripes with this projector. The shadow detail is slightly lacking in dark scenes.I am using max lens shift for my placement and it seems to cause some focus uniformity issues in the corners which is fairly mild. By the way, the manual controls, particularly the focus lever could use a redesign as they are clunky and difficult to make precise adjustments with. Still with such a stunning image I can easily forgive a few minor shortcomings. Tremendous overall value!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my first projector. Gorgeous bright picture. I am hoping that LG can add 3D functionality via an update. I get that 3D was abandoned on TV's, but when you have a 150"+ inch screen, it is a great feature to have. One of my other reasons for purchasing this projector is HDMI 2.1. I realize, at this time, it is not capable/advertised to get 4k at 120HZ. I was hoping since the hardware is installed, just maybe, this gets updated. The vertical zoom is an awesome feature to have with a 16:9 screen. 4K movies look awesome on this projector. The picture is so bright it is like having a 150" LED on my wall. The remote and LG smart system is great.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am a casual movie watcher and just really enjoy picture quality of this projector. Night and day difference coming from optoma hd26. As other reviews pointed out blacks could be better but not in this price range. Still highly watchable just tweak the iris for darker room.
