Optoma Launches New HD27 DLP FulL HD Home Entertainment Projector

With Ultra HD Projectors up and coming, prices on Full HD ones keep on dropping. Optoma Launches New HD27, a Full HD DLP long-throw projector that will cost just 599 Euro / 549 USD. 

As 4K models take top billing, regular HD models are getting cheaper, and better, than ever. Connections include two v1.4a HDMI inputs, one of which supports MHL smartphone hook-up. There's also a USB port for device charging but not media playback. 

reated for Full HD 1080p home entertainment, this new portable projector takes colour accuracy a step further with support for industry standard Rec. 709 for high-definition colour reproduction.

Gordon Wu, Assistant Vice President at Optoma APAC, said: “The new HD27 is an all-round home entertainment projector, combining high ANSI brightness with exceptional colour accuracy to produce true-to-life visuals on a huge screen. The small and lightweight chassis, simple set up and integrated speakers make this an extremely convenient choice, while remaining affordable over comparable products in its price range”.

Weighing less than 2.5kg, you can take the HD27 round to a friend’s house with the optional carry bag for a sports event, movie night or games marathon for the best big screen experience anywhere with a flat surface.
