Really the main reason why I don't wear expensive clothes, I subconsciously touch everything, and unknowingly get the clothes I wear stained. I'm also a tech. We techs touch EVERYTHING! I don't see the point of buying expensive clothes if I can't keep them looking new for more than one wear. Been there. Done that! I buy expensive looking footwear, I walk through a pile of wood beams with nails sticking out of them, one nail catches the seam of the side of the shoe and there it goes, a nasty rip that's not fixable. Now I can't wear the $300 shoes without looking ridiculous because one got a very visible ripped hole.
@@nathanchassay867 The cloth gloves are used to prevent your fingers from leaving oil stains on the screen. But by touching everything those gloves are going to be full of dust
Meh, might as well go all out and get the 790" 16K Sony modular display. I mean, 5.8 million is chump change ; ). Even the 110" 1080p model is still 180K. Due to the way the modular system works resolution goes up with size so the 4K version is 220"s. Disney has been using these for Disney plus show like the mandolorian as the actors can see what is going on around them unlike a green screen. m.hexus.net/ce/news/audio-visual/134840-sony-announces-16k-crystal-led-790-inch-modular-tvs/ All the above tech sounds very enticing, until we come across the thorny issue of pricing. Engadget reports that each Sony Micro LED panel unit costs approx US$10,000. That means that the FHD 110-inch installation would cost $180,000, and the 16K 790-inch TV would cost approx $5.8m to purchase. The system looks great for a video wall in a modern living space, as you can see from the images above. It is also an attractive option for your super yacht, thinks Sony.
@Pancakesrule and the vava UST PJ is cheaper and can do 150"s, so essentially 10 inches over four 70" TV's. I would be extremely hesitant to buy any 70 inch TV for that price. What's the model because I'm betting it's an older model and they are just clearing out stock. You get what you pay for. Like TLC, everyone I know that has one has either zero issues or 50 issues. Lack of quality control shows up eventually and I just find it extremely hard to believe a 70 inch TV for that price is even worth it. If your dead set on a TV and are a gamer then the 65 inch Samsung neo seems like the display to beat, especially if you are a gamer and it's still 2600 which is actually not that bad as it has over 700 dimming zones due to it being micro LED. By far the optoma P2 put out the best HDR picture out of any UST Pj's out there, especially if paired with the right screen.
Don't get the bundle if you do that route. You can get the Epson for 3500 and a much better 120"to ALR UST screen. I recommend projectorscreen . Com as they have discounts when buying both at once (typically 25% off the screen). Unfortunately the Epson is the only real choice for gaming as it's LCD and has a reasonable lag time. DLP UST projectors have to intentionally warp the image due to The way the technology works. This adds to the post processing so most DLP UST projectors have a lag time between 40 and 70 milliseconds. Still, I can notice better ALR on my Grandview Dynamique just from the video. Look at avsforums also, most people who got the combo returned it and got just the PJ at 3500 and a better screen. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-TiHvElnBwHI.html Fresnel is mind blowing regarding ALR but it's not cheap. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-2ZryIF55zHw.html
this takes me back to my 96 inch projection set up.. motorstorm days.. it was a blast. and movies were awesome.. this was in my walkout basement will very controlled lighting and 7.1 sound .. I miss that .. ugh.
They did it. A wallet used to be a 10 dollar thing that held your cards, license, pictures, cash, and coins. They have now redefined it as a 100+ dollar money clip.
Great content as per always guys! One small tip: the gloves were supposed to be used to manipulate the screen area and it is advisable to put on the gloves only when you have unpacked it and ready for mounting so you do not dirty the surface :D
^^ exactly, that's why these screens are so expensive. It's not the frame, it's the fabric and it is delicate and takes time to assemble correctly. Any minor wrinkle or imperfection is extremely noticable which is why they all use springs or Velcro to keep the fabric tensioned. These are not fun to put together I ended up assembling the frame and hanging it to make sure it was level, then took it down and put the fabric on and hanged it on the wall. It worked out very well.
@moonra because they are filming a projector with a camera, uploading it to the internet and you're watching it on another device. It's not going to look the same as it does in person lol
@@adamant3316 I kinda doubt it, but maybe, I guess I'd have to see it in person. I understand the irony, I think it's pretty weird that we have TV ads showing how good a TV's image is, but here it looked _very_ off. They should have filmed a section of it from their PoV, because the camera was higher, and that screen looked black from a lower angle but gray/whitish gray head on.
I'm glad I wasn't the only one to go through hell trying to get my screen to completely line up and removing the ripples. I swear I took the whole thing apart 4 or 5 times before it was finally completely flat. I ended up with a 120" GrandView ALR and a LG HU85LA. It was a pain to set up, but I'm really happy with the results.
I gamed on a projector for years, it was amazing on the Xbox 360 and PS3, especially with Move games like Killzone 2 or anything that used a gun like Time Crisis 4. I had it at 105 inches and it was an incredible experience, especially at the time. I prefer my 65 in C9 OLED or a VR headset, but it would still be cool to have a giant screen again. If you just want to watch movies or even play some games, you can get projectors DIRT CHEAP now. Although the experience is not the best when you don’t pay for it, but in my experience kids love it. They can’t tell the difference. Or if you just want a cheap home theatre to wow your friends.
@@Mellovici you don't need a license to use game footage, lol (unless its Nintendo of course). They probably just use the same games so that its easier to compare to older graphics cards they've tested
One of my friends had a Sony Trinitron CRT TV that could do 1080i through component cables, 10/10 was and still would be the best way to play games on the Xbox 360
With all of the advancements in short throw projectors I would love to see rear projection TVs make a comeback. For home theater setups they were pretty hard to beat back in the day, and the large cabinet allowed for really excellent speakers, with some even including built-in subwoofers. Imagine a 3 laser, 3 chip DLP rear projection TV with full HDMI 2.1 capabilities, 4k@120Hz, variable refresh rate, HDR10, Dolby Vision, and even built-in Dolby Atmos 3D positional audio with quality speakers and subwoofer inside the TV cabinet. They could even include wireless surround speakers in the box for a true surround sound experience.
Shocks now I understand why Linus does not need youtube Ads!! since most of the viewers are tech literate they most probably have an Ad remover which doesn't get revenue if they rely on that !! LOVE IT LINUS TECH GUYS!!
@Casual Scum We have ours setup with an Nvidia shield tv. We don't watch cable anymore. It gets used at least 5 hours a day lol. It's crazy how good a "cheap" projector can be.
@@eternalliving2148 Finnegan's Speed and Marine. Dude has YT channel - Finnegan's Garage. He's also host of motortrend's show Roadkill. Cool gearhead stuff mostly.
@@DaKluitbut the problem is you need a larger/longer room to adjust for the throw. I have a projector rated for 120 inches but at 7 feet it only projects up to 75 inches, so it has to be pretty far away from my wall to project the maximum size. This is what laser TV's aim to get rid of. On the flip side, a 4k 120 inch QLED/OLED TV will set you back 10 to 20 grand in fact Samsung's "The Wall" is a 145 inch QLED TV that costs $220,000. 75-120 inch 4k laser TV's can be had for as low as $2,000 which is the normal price for a 65 inch 4k OLED from a brand like LG. You are paying for the screen size at the cost of black levels and light pollution.
13:25 laser projectors still have pixels as the laser is simply the backlight. LCD panels or DMD chips are still required to produce the image, they simply are being fed light from laser light sources instead of an arc lamp or LEDs.
Linus: “It’s not a TV.” Me: “It’s a short throw projector.” Linus: “But it looks like a TV.” Me: “It’s a short throw projector.” Linus: “Look at the bezels and how far it is from the wall.” Me: “It’s a short throw projector.” Linus: “If it was a projector, you would see my outline, right?” Me: *sigh*
Anyone looking to do a theater setup in their home, this is perfect. I have a close friend who spent well over this for his setup and it fails to compare at all. The blacks are so deep, the screen was still visible with windows open? WHAT?! I feel Linus understated how well that really did with the lighting on...and thats saying something for linus, who is all too ready to sell something normally. My friends would not have been but barely visible and not at all "watchable".
@@jerrodshack7610 cameras really kill the quality of projector screens because of the way the light reflects. My 3 year old 1080p ViewSonic projector looks miles better than this Epson and I can guarantee that it's just because of the video quality.
Linus: I realized this was a projector when I saw the matched boxes it came in.... Me: Funny, I realized it was one when I saw how washed out the colors were.
Something I will say is I find it really cool when they tell the story using clips that were shot at different points in time. Intro Linus got to work with the projector so he knows what it is like. Unboxing Linus hasn't worked with it yet so he still has to figure it out. This adds a bit of depth to the story-experience which I find enjoyable. You are being shown the review by different versions of the same person in a viewing order that changes the viewers interpretation of the product. I just find it so thought provoking. The fact that Unboxing Linus had an idea what the intro was going to be about before it was shot and he knew that his opinion might change is also funky.
Great editing by Dennis! All those little quirks and shenanigans of Linus and Jake were even funnier with those little additions. Black. White. Black. White.
Bladerunner is mastered at a 100 nits or 200 nits respectively so it's probably not the goto Movie for testing these things. I'd recommend Back to the Futue 3 on UHD Bluray which is mastered to perfection. Last Action Hero also is fantastic on UHDBluray.
i remember me and my cousin choosing a projector over a flat screen tv back in 2009. We disappointed our family for two or three years as they had to deal with wall -size image with horrible brightness. Looking back its funny my aunt and uncle watching tv series on a full size wall. Glad to see things changed.
I've brought a laser TV several years ago and it not only looks better than this, but also comes with awesome harman/kardon speakers. Think the brand is called xgimi? Projector tech in China is definitely a decade ahead.
looks like the projectors we have everywhere in schools in france except that here, the projector sits right on top of the screen/white borad, probably isn't 4K(and even if it was the workstations the teachers use would probably not be able to output that) and it's actually an interractive projector which means we have pens with a white tips, on black cones, with white handles, that are detedted by the projector and you can draw things with either on the projectors own virtual white borad, or on top of stuff you're projecting from your PC which is cool and you can switch between both pretty quickly you can also control stuff on the PC which is cool and probably many other functions we don't use in class We always have that EPSON interactive projector, I think it's the EB-685Wi Edit : I only watched the intro and in school half of the time they come with 2 white speakers too Seconds edit : we don't have that cool screen black white tec, this is amazing
When you spend $4400 for an ever inferior TV experience while giving up the one advantage of projectors by coupling it to a fixed size screen and adding a massive box in your living room.
Size. Just size. Here's the thing, if you want to have a big lounge/home cinema area for more than 3-4 people, you need them far from the screen, and it doesn't take long for screen sizes to not catch up to how far someone is for the ideal viewing distance. (more to the point, how much of your view is filled with the content, aka, cinema theathers)
