Epson’s LS800 is highly regarded as the top choice for sports enthusiasts in the UST projector buying guide, thanks to its impressive 4,000 lumens light output, making it one of the brightest UST projectors available. It excels in delivering bright and contrast-rich images even in well-lit rooms, making it ideal for various viewing environments. The LS800’s pricing is set at $3,499 (about £3,199 or AU$5,240).
Epson’s new LS650 projector offers a brightness of 3,600 lumens, providing excellent luminance that closely matches the LS800. This level of brightness is similar to the LG Cinebeam HU915QE, another top choice in the UST buying guide, priced at $5,999 (around AU$9,999 or £5,600). Anticipated to be priced below Epson’s LS800 in the US, possibly under $3,000, the LS650 fills a compelling niche, balancing affordability with high-performance capabilities for home theater-style viewing across diverse environments.
