Know before you buy
The LG HU85LA is an ultra-short-throw projector, meaning it only needs to be placed 7.2 inches away from your wall or screen to project a full 120-inch image.
While you can project onto a flat, white wall, using a dedicated ALR (Ambient Light Rejecting) screen designed for ultra-short-throw projectors will significantly improve contrast, color depth, and overall image quality.
The laser light source is rated for approximately 20,000 hours of use. If you watch for four hours every single day, the light source should last for over 13 years.
Yes, the projector features HDMI, USB-A, and USB-C ports, allowing you to easily connect gaming consoles, Blu-ray players, and streaming sticks.
The built-in stereo speakers are convenient for casual viewing or smaller rooms. However, for a true cinematic experience, we recommend pairing the projector with a dedicated soundbar or surround sound system.
Yes, the HU85LA features built-in LG AI ThinQ, which supports voice control, allowing you to integrate it into your existing smart home setup.
