Customer Ratings & Reviews

After doing a lot of research and trying to get the most for our money we decided to get this projector! It does work wirelessly but we mainly use it with connection to outlet, so we don’t know how long the charge will last. Set up was easy, wifi pairing non problematic, we have used the netflix App incorporated in this device without issues and no lagging. We are an Apple family users and I do believe this projector is not compatible with IOS but that wasn’t an issues for us, worse case we would use our laptop(non iOS) or buy a small tablet compatible with this system. Apple has way to many restrictions and needs Apple TV or something to mirror anyways. We went camping this past weekend and connected the projector to our laptop via HDMI and it immediately mirrored our screen. Projector worked great for our pay per view UFC McGregor fight, which attracted about 20-25 other campers in the area lol. Even with them being in the back by the parking lots they were able to clearly see the fight , we have the projector on a 120” screen and this device can easily do bigger without issues to the resolution. We bought the Elite Screens Yardmaster2 120” outdoor projector screen which we also bought at bestbuy. Set up for screen was a breeze, we had zero issues, built in minutes and I like the bag it comes with which also includes a separate zippered bag just for the screen . Highly recommend if you are looking for a screen to use with your projector!

I absolutely love the performance of this projector! It is replacing my Wowoto battery operated predictor that froze up on me. This LG has amazing clarity and brightness. I recently used it to host a movie night outdoors for my son's sleepover birthday party. The Bluetooth sync to my ION tailgater was excellent (my Wowoto had delays) but had occasional dropouts in sound even though only 6 feet away. But I'd rather a couple of dropouts than lipsync be off. Inputs on the projector were plentiful though I'm not really sure I'll ever use the coax or the TV tuner, but it's nice to know I have the option. A few gripes I have that cost it a star for me are: 1) every time I boot it up, it comes up with signal error cause it's looking for an antenna to be hooked up. It always defaults to TV tuner on boot. I'm sure there is a way to disable that or have it default to input but I haven't found it yet. 2) the remote control is clunky when operating the GUI menu. Too many buttons on the remote and navigation response seems slow on the GUI. 3) Finally the one big pain point I have is this LG projector does not work with wireless display (WiDi/mirroring) on my Lenovo Yoga 2pro. During a scan my laptop finds the projector but then never completes the handshake and drops it. After a lot of googling it seems like this is a problem on all the LG projectors and many Lenovo laptops. Not sure why but I tried everything and I have a strong Technical IT background. Thought the wireless mirroring works well on my Samsung Galaxy S9+, I tally would like my laptop to work without wires. That's why I took off a star. Overall though I'm very pleased with this projector. I know I'm soon due for a new laptop and now will have to make sure it works with this projector before I buy. I really wish LG would resolve the issue which seems to be ongoing.

I got it while it was on sale for $200 off and after owning it for two months I would still buy it at full price. It is a completely self sustaining projector. Has every kind of port you need on the back, it can work connected to power or on its own built-in battery for a couple of hours. It comes with the LG app store so and has things like youtube and netflix built right in! It does have a built in speaker but has options like using LGsync for bluetooth speaker connection or other ports(8mm jack) for output. It can even power our roku from one of its own usb ports in the back so we don't have to run power to the roku stick. Mounts well with portable tripod and clear even when pushing past its 100 foot screen size. Truly a best buy!

Great purchase! I have it connected to my LG bluetooth kareoke home speaker. The projector only has 2 hdmi inputs, so i got an hdmi splitter and can connect more. The other hdmi input is connected to an av rca to hdmi converter, which itself is connected to an av rca splitter and can also connect more. I currently have an apple tv, ps4, laserdisc, ps2, ps3, sega saturn, and vcr connected. Only downside is the lumen output brightness. Definitely cannot see image with minimal sunlight creeping in. I got black out curtains from ikea dirt cheap and they make a huge difference.

Maaaaaan....aThis Projector is clear. With my Chromecast, I easily stream and I paired it up with my 3D PILE SOUND BAR. Instant theatrical home simulation. I've traveled with I. I used a 100" 16:9 screen and 75" screen and there was no noticable washing out of the images! When I paired with my LG Blu Ray player and tested the image on the Godzilla/ King Smackdown, I forgot I was in my living room when I paired it with my LG WIRELESS SPEAKERS and Subwoofer.

A Theater in my house! It’s a dream come true! The picture is clear and has a lot of settings that suits your eyes. Just a bit complicated in the beginning to set up.

Very compact. Light weight. Lamp life number is sufficient. Contrast and other projector settings are great. Very high tech navigation. If within your budget it’s a must purchase.

Has great picture! The sound isnt the best but i play it through my sound bar. I use it for every day use like a television.

I have a few projectors in my collection and this one is really exceptional. The built in DTV makes it ideal for a large screen replacement. The built in battery lasts a decent amount of time. The USB C connection can be used for video or charging the unit. Highly recommended for those not interested in 4K and also wants something you can run games and power point

Bought it as an upgrade to my previous projector. Picture quality is great. The sound of of the device is underwhelming, but that's what my soundbar is for. Very easy to use.

Pretty good quality, not compatible with iPhone since LG is an android platform. But connecting to a Chromebook was simple, used the projector for football games and concert live streams. For the price, the picture quality is pretty good!

This is the one. It’s 1080p and has smart capabilities. It’s also bright but if you turn on the lights it dims (as all others do as well). I was very pleased with the material used, it’s solid overall. Although it doesn’t have airplay and certain updated apps already integrated, such as Disney plus, an easy fix is the chromecast.

We don’t have a basement so we made the garage the man cave. Installed surround, trimmed out a screen on the wall with theatre screen paint. Screen is about 11’. My LG projector bit the dust. It was 10+ years old. We bought the new one today and got it hooked up. The picture is amazingly clear and bright. I hope I get to enjoy this one even longer. I bought LG because of the LED lamp. LCD lamps don’t like dust and that’s an issue in a garage. Plus the lamp life of LED is much longer. Very happy so far.

So far so good !! Works pretty amazing and has good quality definitely makes for an amazing movie night expiriance

Love my new projector, I waited a while because wanted to make sure if I purchase was worth it and oh boy glad I waited and purchased this one.

The camera is so clear and because it’s LG you have Netflix, Hulu and so much more already in the projector. The sound is decent but you will need a speaker if your using it for outdoors like I’m going to do.

Instantly put this puppy to use, manufactured a ceiling mount and with the lens adjustment I was as easy as 123.

The projector is fine, but when we opened the box it had clearly opened and returned. This was a gift . When the person received it , they noted the internal packaging was damaged and opened. When they plugged it in, it was signed in to previous customers accounts. This product was not sold or advertised as an open box buy. It even had dirty hand prints on it !

First I would like to state, this is not my first Projector. I am familiar with the projectors and the screen element for use in dark rooms as well as room full of ambient light. That being said the location of this projector test for product review was a room with lots of ambient light. The screen is wall that has light silver screen paint with 2.0 gain (allowing 3D to work). The projector works well in both daytime and again no surprise very well at night. The projector is sitting 11.5 feet from screen and the resulting image measures to 122" screen. The projector has 600 lumens so again the quality during the day is a bit lighter than say a 2400 lumens projector. However this is where it gets amazing. The picture quality at night is just so striking because even though this is just 1080P the content at that rate is just jaw dropping. Pros: Small and can be used outside when dark Less than $700 (Extremely good budget/quality) Had 2 HDMI inputs Advertised lamp to last 30,000 hours (Will update if needed to confirm this) Easy setup out of the box Cons: 600 lumens (Not the best quality in a room with ambient light) Vertical horizontal adjustments (requires tripod set up) That’s it folks for now. This is new for me so I will update this review as needed if things change. I would highly recommend this for anyone especially those that can use this out doors at night, it is small easily concealed in backpack and runs 2.5 hours on battery power.

Video Projectors have been around a very time, I remember using one back in the 80's that was the size of a washing machine, had three large projector lenses for red, green and blue. The quality of those older systems were terrible, and it's not really fair to compare. The point here is that projectors have been around for years, and are definitely here to stay. The LG PF50KA is a huge leap forward in quality and capability, and I'm blown away by it's performance! I'm not going to bore you with all the technical details on this system, if you are like I am - you've already done your research which brought you to this projector. I hooked mine up quickly without any difficulty (I didn't even consult the manual initially). I happen to have a projection screen, back from the day when I used it to show 35mm slides (I know, I'm old...). The screen surface is perfect for projecting on, and displays amazingly bright and crisp video reproduction. A screen like this is also recommended if you plan on using the projector during daylight hours. No projector will provide the same quality in daylight, in a bright room as a typical TV set would. That's why movie theaters are dark! It's in a dark room that this projector shines (no pun intended). Besides the insanely good picture quality, LG also packed it full of great features! There are full plethora of APPS built-in, which you'd expect (NetFlix, YouTube, Hulu, etc.). I found each of the apps to perform perfectly well, with no lag or hesitation. I also plugged my FireStick in one of the two HDMI ports on the back, and it performed like a champ too. HD video content was awesome, with little to no banding noticeable. A huge benefit that this projector has over my 65" TV is that there are no viewing angle issues. You can sit anywhere in the room and see the same quality that you would sitting straight on. I really loved all of the ports provided in this projector, that allow you every conceivable way to input video. It even has a coaxial connector, which made me nostalgic since cable seems to be fading away in favor of streaming. I had a ball playing with this thing, trying out all of its cool features. I highly recommend taking the time to read the user's guide, and trying out everything before you mount the projector permanently. Although you really shouldn't mount this permanently anyhow since this mighty mini can run on it's built-in battery for up to 2 1/2 hours! I'm definitely planning on taking this on vacation with us, which should be fun! It's difficult to find any faults with the projector, since what's most important to me is the quality of the picture displayed. It is superb! I will say that the remote control isn't my favorite part of the projector. It took a bit of getting used to, and I really wish it was back lit. I don't know why manufacturers don't do this as a normal feature. The room is dark - how does one see the buttons? Seems like an obvious thing... The Setup initially on the projector is super simple, it walks you through step by step - and is completed in no time. I chuckled a little when it referred to the remote control included, and showed a graphic of a different remote control. LG needs to proof this, and clean that up along with its User's Guide. The guide is just "okay", I've struggled through much worse. I also wish there was more options in the Setup and Configurations menu. I suspect they don't add more settings on purpose as this unit is targeted at the typical family buyer. The less things to 'tweak', the better off the end user will be. This is exactly what Apple does too by the way, with its own products. Ultimately I connected my XBox One S via an HDMI cable, connected wireless to my home WiFi, and Bluetooth sound out to my AV Receiver. I watched Planet Earth 4K Blu-Ray and cranked the audio. It was amazing! I also watched Soccer and Nascar live - and the video was crisp and fluid. Really, really nice! I plan on doing more reviews on this unit as time goes on. It's capable of projecting up to 100 inches! I will have to clear a wall for that, but it'll be worth it! For now my 70" Da-Lite screen is just fine, actually it's incredible. Family movie night is forever changed and upgraded! If you are considering a projector for the home, for movies, for displaying photos, for streaming videos, for playing Xbox or PS4 video games on - get this unit! You will not be disappointed! You can spend more money on other projectors, but this one is a steal at twice the cost! I'm very choosy when it comes to electronics, and I don't hesitate returning something that doesn't impress me. This one made the grade, and it's definitely a keeper! Good job LG!
