Verdict

The Epson EH-LS300W is a Full HD 1080p ultra-short-throw (UST) laser projector from the EpiqVision Ultra range, designed to project a massive image of up to 120 inches from just inches away from the wall. Key specifications include a high brightness of 3,600 lumens (equal white and colour output), a 2,500,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio, and 3LCD technology for vibrant, rainbow-free colours. It features an integrated 2.1 Yamaha sound system, built-in Android TV with Chromecast, and a laser light source rated for up to 20,000 hours of life. Main pros include its exceptional brightness suitable for well-lit rooms, excellent out-of-the-box colour accuracy, and convenient all-in-one smart TV functionality. However, notable cons include its lack of native 4K resolution, significant input lag that makes it unsuitable for competitive gaming, and high fan noise when operating at maximum brightness.
