Customer Reviews for LG - CineBeam PF510Q Full HD 1080p Wireless Smart DLP Portable Projector with High Dynamic Range - White

We just needed a small but capable projector for computer presentations that our staff do. It's so light and compact, which makes it easy to move around and take with you. It outputs a beautiful 1080p picture and while it does not have a native 4K input, I've read it can project a 4K HDR image using HDR10 (and that it does not have 3D playback), but I'm not using this for home theater viewing. For our needs it fits the bill perfectly and we're very happy with it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The LG CineBeam PF510Q is an extraordinary projector. First I am absolutely amazed at the technology in such a small unit. The high-definition video is really good quality. This LG has brought a new entertainment venue to our backyard. We love it aimed at our old barn for a screen. Also so easy to use that my senior mother was able to use it immediately.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This LG PF510Q is not like the old projectors you need to hang from the ceiling or had in school. LG gives you a powerful projector in a tiny, portable package. I was pleasantly surprised at the clear picture. The hardest part of the setup was hanging the screen.
The picture can be sized up to around 120 inches without distortion. We were able to move the projector from inside to outside and because it is so small, it was easy to set up. This is a must have for picnics, parties, and movies under the stars.

Hello! Thank you for the kind words— we couldn't have said it better ourselves! We're glad the PF510Q has become a welcome member of your family, in and outside your home. If you ever have any questions or concerns, please be sure to let us know! ^Ian

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This projector is a powerhouse with its 4K resolution and exceptional image quality. Whether I'm watching movies, playing video games, or streaming my favorite TV shows, the visuals are incredibly sharp, detailed, and vibrant. The projector's brightness and contrast levels are impressive, providing a cinematic feel even in a well-lit room. The LG CineBeam PF510Q's ability to project large screen sizes, up to 120 inches, adds to the immersive experience, making me feel like I'm in my private theater.
Another standout feature of the LG CineBeam PF510Q is its convenience and versatility. The projector's wireless connectivity options, such as Bluetooth and Wi-Fi, allow me to effortlessly connect my devices and stream content without any hassle. Additionally, the built-in speakers deliver surprisingly rich audio, eliminating the need for external sound systems in smaller spaces. The projector's compact and portable design makes it easy to move around and set up in different rooms or even take it outside for backyard movie nights. With its user-friendly interface and intuitive controls, adjusting settings and accessing different features is a breeze.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The LG Projector is a good entry-level projector. It has enough features that makes a person need more. The small footprint is great for carrying around to use for outdoor or kids' rooms.
The projector is not very bright in the daylight or even with blinds closed unless you have blackout shades to mostly darken your room. The colors tend to wash out as the brightening of the room occurs.
The interface is nice and easy to navigate after a few minutes. The available apps are numerous but does fall short of the typical that every provider has today. But luckily this can be corrected in future updates if they so choose. The typical LG dashboard is similar to other LG televisions.
The sound is lacking, but is no different than most these days. It is easy to sync a Bluetooth speaker to it for use in a non-permanent setting, but it also has ports for a hard-wired connection.
It is almost useless without a screen to project on with the lumens being 450, but with a screen, it is a bit brighter but not enough to easily be seen in a partially lit room.
The remote does lack a lot. All of the buttons are there and can easily be learned, but it is infrared and you must point it almost directly at it in order to get any response. You cannot hide it in an enclosure due to this fact.
It is a good entry-level projector for anyone needing something for those evening events because at night it has a great crisp clear picture. I am looking forward to being able to actually use it in a setting that makes perfect sense, outdoors.
The size of it makes it ideal for setting up poolside at night to enjoy the pool and watch your favorite movie, if you have it on the right app and a Bluetooth speaker nearby to hear it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The LG PF510Q projector is a good entry-level projector. With most entry-level devices there are always shortcomings in simple things that are either overlooked or factor into the build.
The Good:
The small form factor allows the device to be moved around for temporary use in special situations. The ability to set it up and require minimal modifications is great for this type of usage. The Keystone correction prevents the picture from being skewed and requires adjustment for each use.
The picture quality is excellent in a dark environment with a white backdrop\screen projected onto. It is very vibrant and has a crystal-clear image, which makes the vieiwing more enjoyable.
The dashboard is easy to navigate and will allow more applications to be installed if needed. The remote easily allows navigating to the most used features on the projector.
The Bad:
The remote requires a direct line of sight (Infrared), where most have RF remotes to alleviate this concern. This alone will limit its use in most situations. You are unable to set it under a table, or on the lower shelf to allow the table to continue to be used for other items, such as keeping it from getting splashed on outdoors.
The lack of Netflix is sad and will require an additional device to be used for streaming it. Although there is a web browser included within the projector, it is not desirable to use a smart device to load a web browser just to watch the number one streaming app in use today.
And finally, the 450 lumens does restrict the usage to only nighttime, or in a dark room with blackout blinds. Most homes do not have these in the living areas and will limit the usage to only certain times of the day.
With the mentioned issues, the missing application can be corrected with a software update, but the other will require hardware redesign, unless the RF is already included but not enabled :)

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We recently received the LG CineBeam projector. Pre-pandemic, I used to facilitate in-person employee trainings and run around my office building with a bulky projector. The LG projector is probably six times smaller than the projector I used at that time. It’s lightweight and compact and, at the same time, creates a high-quality image. It’d be great if the manufacturer also provided a travel case.
There are multiple picture settings, including “cinema” and “vivid.” It’s perfect for movie nights in our backyard! We got a 100-inch projector screen and created our own outdoor movie theater. We were a little disappointed with the sound volume and ended up using an external speaker.
The projector is Wi-Fi connected and was pretty easy to set up. The integrated streaming apps, unfortunately, do not include Netflix, but we can always mirror content from our phone or tablet.
Overall, we’re very happy with our LG CineBeam PF510Q projector and look forward to our next movie night under the stars.
