LG has officially unveiled the CineBeam S, its latest ultra short throw 4K projector, claimed to be the company’s smallest model yet. The device can project an image of up to 100 inches from just 39 cm away from the wall. Set to hit the European market this September, the CineBeam S will be priced at €1,299 (around $1,420).
Measuring only 110 × 160 × 160 mm and weighing 1.9 kg, the CineBeam S is more compact than most of its competitors, including Samsung’s Premiere 5. It features three separate lasers for red, green, and blue, delivering more accurate color reproduction. However, with a brightness of just 500 ANSI lumens, a dark room is still required for the best viewing experience.
On the features side, the CineBeam S runs on webOS and supports AirPlay 2 and Screen Share, along with HDMI with eARC, USB-C, and built-in 4-watt speakers with Dolby Atmos. It also comes with a 4K upscaler and eight preset modes for different wall colors. While it doesn’t have a built-in battery, the projector uses an included 65W USB-C power adapter. Users can adjust image size and position without moving the unit, with autofocus and automatic keystone correction also supported.
The launch of the CineBeam S expands LG’s portable projector lineup, appealing to home theater enthusiasts—especially those with limited space. With its compact design and modern features, LG is positioning it as a flexible alternative to large TVs. Industry analysts expect demand for ultra short throw projectors to keep growing, especially as the home entertainment trend remains strong post-pandemic.
