[@Chewie576]

@@ProjectorScreen One thing I would have liked to see, even though I already have the Samsung, is the noise comparison. I heard that the LG has some "coil" noise and is louder than the Samsung. That was one of the reasons I preferred buying the Samsung, but I never heard them side by side. Can you comment on the dB noise levels?

[@ProjectorScreen]

@@Chewie576 There is a noticeable coil whine on some of the HU85LA units that we have played with. That being said, once you have any sort of audio playing it is drowned out, but sitting in a silent room with the projector on, you may here the whine when relatively close to the projector.

[@stevei5130]

Great Review. I have purchased the Samsung Projector with the Samsung Soundbar. Do you have any recommendations of where to place the soundbar? Thanks - Steve

[@HelgeGER]

Thanks for the comparison... Well needed... I saw that at my local seller that the lg cant handle fast 4k action movies as smooth as the samsung. Is that your test also?

[@ProjectorScreen]

The Samsung LSP9T does have better motion handling from our testing. In fact, I would say the LSP9T has the best motion handling of any of the USTs that we've tested. They being said, the HU85LA still does a good job in regards to motion, just not as well as the LSP9T.

[@gamingfunfacts]

I would fully agree with ProjectoScreen here. The Samsung does it very nice and natural but the LG is also really very good in motion handling. You can configure on the LG the sharpening and the smoothening with seperate levers. On the Samsung you only have one lever which affects both as far as I can tell. I woould probably not take a puchase decision due to that. They are both good in this regard.

[@macho9556]

Only thing missing from these projectors is 3D. That's why I passed on the LG and got the Optoma CinemaX Pro. Would happily upgrade to the Samsung 9T but again the no 3D has me thinking about the switch

[@ProjectorScreen]

3D is becoming less and less common with the majority of USTs not supporting it. The Optoma units are a great option for those who want 3D.

[@macho9556]

@@ProjectorScreen I agree about the less common, but why not just include it or add it via upgrade? Still a nice tech. 3D on a 120" + is just pure awesome!!! I believe 3D didnt take off because at the time it was being added to 60" and less TV's with the exception of the Mitsubushi DLPs. Who would wna watch a 3D movie on a 60" or less TV?? Still have my 73" and 92" and 3D on the 92" is just WOW! On my 120" its HOLY SH!T!! I really REALLY wanted that LG. And now this Samusung with its triple lasers looks even better. But the no 3D has caused me to pull the E-brake on those purchases. Oh well. Shooting for Optoma to come out with a triple laser with 3D support 🤞🤞

I didn't see anything about black/darkness levels, which is extremely critical when it comes to projectors. I have the LG HU80KA 4K Laser projector and its black levels look bright and brown in comparison to my Acer H6510BD 1080p UHP lamp projector from 2013. Unfortunately, because of the difference I have my HU80KA shelfed, and the Acer is still what I use to watch movies. The black levels on the Acer are nearly completely black.

[@MichaelBeeny]

I have just returned from a shop here in NZ after looking at the LSP9T. I must say I was most disappointed. Maybe I was expecting too much. It's a big picture for sure but the blacks are really poor and for me totally un acceptable. I did have a quick play with the remote but was told a Samsung engineer had installed it and set it up. This is the first short throw projector I have seen in this price range. Think I will stay with my LG 86 inch TV for now.

Come on up here to our showroom in the USA and be prepared to a much different experience - the LSP9T looks great.

[@renemedrano6689]

The LSP9t is more expensive than the lsp7t but would you choose the LSP7t as well?

[@ginopetitti6088]

OH - ONE MORE QUESTION FOR YOU Brian... Optima CinemaX P2 vs LG HU85LA Shoot-Out on the Horizon?? So my question is - which would you pick if you had the choice? Optima P2 seems the better value, but I hear HDR is better on the LG and it pushes a brighter more POP of an image even though it is rated for less lumens, and the larger DLP chip makes the LG even crisper, and it is faster for gaming (slightly) and I guess when it comes to black levels they are on par, MAYBE LG is better? I am trying to decide which one to get. I am not concerned with the speaker sound, more better image quality, and i am pushing these against a VIVIDSTORM PRO S 100" - Light Controlled environment. Thanks in advance for your advice - and it looks like you have great fun with your shoot-out videos, keep it up!

LG wins in Picture qualify, but is much more expensive. Not sure if we’ll do a shootout but we have all the footage for both filmed and will see what time allows us to get done.

The LG is louder. Some people have reported hearing a “cool whine” from the LG as well.

[@Taildog]

Which has the lesser lag for gaming?

[@youandiryan]

If you're serious about gaming you wouldn't want to use a projector in the first place, as they aren't really designed for that. They are designed for cinema. They don't design projectors with the intent of low latency for gamers. They design projectors for movies, and the best possible cinematic experience. Yeah you can game on them. But if you're serious about gaming and you're asking the questions about which is better for gaming with lag, just don't use a projector. As far as research goes though the LG seems like it's pretty amazing because I'm thinking of buying it myself.

[@Jtford001]

This is by far the best video your channel has produced. Great work!

Throw ratio aside, how would you say these compare in picture quality to the newer Hisense L9G which has been receiving high praise? Thanks.

[@ProjectorScreen]

The Hisense L9G was our #1 Laser TV for 2021 and the new Hisense PX1-Pro is our top pick so far for 2022. You will see both of those get cycled into shootouts with the Samsung & LG units as well. www.projectorscreen.com/brand/hisense

[@sinhafamily]

Does the Samsung have a mode that produces more contrasty image, at the cost of dynamic range? Kids don't care about dynamic range anyways.

[@ProjectorScreen]

There are various modes on all of these USTs and further refinements and calibrations one can make. We opted for standard, out of the box modes for simplicity and to be consistent across all the shootouts.

The LG is kicking ass here.. The Samsung will be great for a dark room. But the LG will display better on both cenario. I like more the color, contrast and sharpness of the LG. I rather adjust the image dropping down the options. And even opening it to paint the case mate black.

[@albertotapia98]

Hello, very interesting your opinion, I would love to know your opinion between the Hisense 100L5F & the Samsung LSP9T. I´d principally use it to watch series or movies, In Mexico they have the same price but Hisense includes a screen and Android tv. Which one should I buy? Thank you very much!

[@ProjectorScreen]

The Samsung LSP9T is superior to the 100L5f in just about every way. Depending on the cost of a comparable screen, I would suggest the Samsung.

[@viavisualbda8376]

What class of ustp are these two in, and what class is considered the top tier and top brightness?

I just got a LSP9T based on these reviews and it arrived with a very subtle aqua tint. White text never looks white, it's got a slight tint to it. I thought color balance or tint sliders would correct it but neither of them do anything at all. I returned it and got another one but it behaved the same way. Other projectors with the same content do not present like this. Is it possible I got 2 broken projectors in a row or is this projector just kinda designed poorly?

The throw ratio of (0.19) is the main feature that I value in these two expensive ust projectors, beside the no moving parts laser system. All other brands have 0.23 or 0.25 and you need a deep table for them. The cons of the LG are the size/design, audio power and old web os version. The cons of the Samsung are the lower contrast, OS, prize and no backlited remote.

The throw ratio on these is a definitely a big advantage over the other offerings.

How does rainbow effect compare between them?

[@ProjectorScreen]

There is no rainbow effect by virtue of the color wheel, however some people have reported rainbows from early production units of the LSP9T due to the firing of the triple lasers. I believe that was addressed via a firmware update. I personally have never seen rainbows on either unit.

[@hawkhawk]

Thx for the review, indeed 2 real competitors I am currently considering! In the end of the video you mention that the Samsung supports more formats than the LG? Considering video, I think both support HDR10? But the Samsung also HDR10+? Considering audio, I thought the Samsung is NOT able to play DTS audio formats (also not via passthrough?) and the LG can output/passthrough almost all modern (5.1/HD/7.1) audio formats. Assuming every one in this price range "will not rely on the projector alone as a soundbar" and have separate audio surround systems, this seems an important item (still many movie content uses DTS, DTS-HD or DTS-X). Since the LG reduced its price recently (and it is already 1,5 year on the market), maybe a new UST projector with WebOS 5 or 6 and WiSA on board will be announced soon?

[@ProjectorScreen]

The Samsung supports HDR10+ and HLG, the LG only HDR10. I personally would not suggest trying to pass audio through the projector if you are using a sound-system and instead run your video sources into a receiver and then HDMI out into the projector. That way you need no passthrough on the projector. I can't comment on anything coming out in the future but with the UST segment being so hot right now, I would expect to see continued innovation and improvements on USTs for the years to come.

[@macho9556]

@@ProjectorScreen I would suggest the same route as in connecting the source to your receiver, pre/pro and then out to the projector. But when your trying to watch something in HDR10+ just to see how HDR10+ looks and your pre/pro is not compatible with HDR10+ you have to connect the source straight to the lsp9t projector and passthrough the audio. I found out that the lsp9t does not play nice with audio passthrough

[@macho9556]

That is correct, the lsp9t does not play DTS files. It says audio format not supported. It does not passthrough either even tho it has a passthrough option in the settings, it is always greyed out.

[@ayset.w.2671]

I wish you could use different modes while comparing instead of sticking with a single mode. Or compared them after calibration. It would be more fair. Because for instance Samsung could be brighter in a different mode or LG could look more vibrant in a different mode.

Samsung projector > LG projector

[@ProjectorScreen]

The HU85LA is last generation; check out the new HU915QB - that projector is a top performer for sure

You should have used a calibrated image and not just standard mode... as you can see that the LG uses a more aggressive contrast enhancer in the standard mode which leads to the fact that the lg is brighter here even though with proper colors the samsung is much brighter. Its a quite pointless comparison in my opinion.

[@ProjectorScreen]

Thank you for the feedback Marco, I'm sorry you didn't think our video was useful. We chose to use standard mode for this video for several reasons. 1) It is brighter than a calibrated picture mode. Based on hundreds of conversations with customers regarding the environment they are setting these USTs up in and the criteria that is most important for their viewing experience, brightness is key. 2) Standard mode is the easiest to match apples-to-apples between all of the various USTs in this series.

[@gamingfunfacts]

@@ProjectorScreen I get your idea but it would have been more useful then to do maybe both. Cause in the brightest mode of the Samsung it is also brighter than the LG. The two standard modes do not use the same settings in regards of Dynamique contrast and such. On general the Samsung is the brighter projector and has the more accurate colors but exactly that is not the outcome of your video. People think now the LG is brighter what is not true.

@@gamingfunfacts - We'll keep that in mind for the rematch!

I think the same. The Samsung look much better in black and color, but in this video people will think the LG look better because it brighter. This video is useless and may make people missleading.

Good review, but the sample/test footage made my sick 🤮

[@whiteandnerdytuba]

Drop all of the nonsense and ridiculously loud sound effects. Audio isn’t balanced

[@ProjectorScreen]

Thanks for the feedback. I’ve already fired out audio engineer.

In other news, This video was sponsor by samsung lol, Can't we can a good review that isn't fake. The LG is some area lighting was much better, Not by much but better.

[@ProjectorScreen]

This video was not sponsored by anyone at all and we’ve never received a penny from Samsung for any marketing purposes.

takes 3min to get to the actual review

[@ssing7113]

No way is the Samsung is worth more more. The whites are horrible on it… anything thinking so is getting caught up on lasers. Which don’t make for a better picture. Or that much more..

[@ProjectorScreen]

Maybe out of the box, but these projectors can be calibrated.

[@derekleung9370]

The Samsung was out focused

[@palerider55]

Why can't you do a comparison without the asinine theatrics? You're not cute, funny or cool. You just look ridiculous.

[@ProjectorScreen]

Since I do NOT consume beef. I almost threw up 🤮 Please use wisdom and choose other source of media content. I had to 🛑 viewing it!

We do have a vegetarian video menu as well, but only serve it on weekends.

Any comparison for 4k sport viewing. The Samsung is £7000 in the UK. The LG is £2000. Is the Samsung worth this investmen?
