Verdict

The LG CineBeam AU810P is a premium 4K UHD (3840 x 2160) DLP projector featuring a dual-laser light source that delivers 2,700 ANSI lumens of brightness and a 2,000,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio. Designed for high-end home cinemas, it boasts 97% DCI-P3 color gamut coverage, HDR10/HLG support with dynamic tone mapping, and integrated webOS 5.0 for direct streaming. Its main pros include exceptional installation flexibility via a 1.6x manual zoom and extensive lens shift (vertical ±60%, horizontal ±24%), as well as professional-grade features like Calman Auto Calibration and WiSA wireless audio support. However, notable cons include a lack of 3D support, manual-only focus and zoom controls, and an input lag of approximately 48ms, which may be too high for competitive gaming.
