LG Electronics is set to further distinguish its Minibeam series of projectors at CES 2016, by launching three new projectors - PH550, PW1000, PW1500 - featuring both Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity. In addition, the latest Minibeam projectors have been slimmed down even further for easier portability.

The new compact PH550 eliminates the need for all wires thanks to its triple wire-free connectivity. What this means is that users can send content to the projector from a smartphone or tablet using the Wi-Fi mirroring-enabled Screen Share, connect to speakers wirelessly via Bluetooth and unplug from the wall for 2.5 hours of viewing using the rechargeable internal battery. And less than half the size of a standard A4 sheet of paper, the PH550 at 550 lumens is the brightest among LG’s battery-powered projectors.

The PF1000U is able to project a 100-inch image when placed only 15 inches (38 centimeters) from a wall or screen. At just a quarter the size and one fifth the weight of the ultra short throw (UST) model, the PF1000U is possibly the world’s first UST projector to weigh less than 2kg. Despite its small size, the Full HD PF1000U delivers a 1,000 lumen brightness rating, all while consuming just a third of the power of competing units, according to LG. In addition, the PF1000U operates at an ultra-low 21dB while in Eco Mode.

For those who prioritize picture clarity, the new PW1500 is able to render images at 1,500 lumens.

LG’s new 2016 Minibeam models will be available in key European markets and the United States in the first quarter of 2016.
