Verdict

The Epson EH-LS300B is a Full HD 1080p ultra-short-throw laser projector from the EpiqVision Ultra line, featuring 3LCD technology with 3,600 lumens of equal colour and white brightness and a 2,500,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio. Key characteristics include its ability to project a massive 120-inch image from just inches away, integrated Android TV for streaming, and a built-in 2.1-channel Yamaha speaker system. Main pros consist of exceptional brightness suitable for well-lit rooms, a long-lasting laser light source rated for 20,000 hours, and a wide colour gamut without the 'rainbow effect' typical of 1-chip DLP models. However, notable cons include its lack of native 4K resolution, significant fan noise at maximum brightness (37 dB), and relatively high input lag that may hinder competitive gaming.
