Epson LS100 Projector Review

July 9, 2018 by Chris Heinonen 1 Comment

When it comes to watching a TV, we’ve always said that bigger is better. A larger image is more immersive and a better watching experience. And while flat panels have gotten thinner and cheaper, there is still a significant price premium for any size over 65”. The Epson LS100 laser projector is designed to fill […]

The Samsung MU8000 sits right at the sweet spot for most people, with a 55” coming in at just over $1,000 as we write this review. For that price you get 4K resolution, HDR with wide color gamut support, integrated apps with voice search, a very nice design, and it even integrates with CalMAN to […]
