Optoma Launches 4K Gaming Projector Pair
Optoma has released a pair of competitively-priced, low-latency 4K projectors aimed at gamers.
Optoma's UHD35 and UHD38 are identical save for the latter model's 4000 lumens brightness boast compared to its twin sibling's 3600 lumens rating, resulting in decent pictures even in a moderately bright room. That aside, what you get are a couple of compact image-slingers sporting a pair of HDMI 2.0 ports which are claimed to offer response times as low as 16.7ms at 4K 60fps and 4.2ms when viewing in 1080p at 240Hz.
Additionally, we're told that they both can project HDR10 and HLG-friendly images measuring anywhere between 33-300-inches via an eight-segment colour wheel. They benefit from Optoma's Dynamic Black settings and a stated contrast of 1,000,000:1.
Horizontal and vertical keystone and 4-corner correction allows for flexibility of placement while a 12V trigger enables control of a motorised screen.
As well as the built-in 10W speaker, you have the option to connect to a better sound system via S/PDIF or 3.5mm ports. There's also VGA in and a powered USB 2.0 port. Rounding things off is 3D Blu-ray playback support and a backlit remote control.
The Optoma UHD35 and UHD38 are available now priced at £999 and £1099, respectively.

applause awards
Each time StereoNET reviews a product, it is considered for an Applause Award. Winning one marks it out as a design of great quality and distinction – a special product in its class, on the grounds of either performance, value for money, or usually both.
Applause Awards are personally issued by StereoNET’s global Editor-in-Chief, David Price – who has over three decades of experience reviewing hi-fi products at the highest level – after consulting with our senior editorial team. They are not automatically given with all reviews, nor can manufacturers purchase them.
The StereoNET editorial team includes some of the world’s most experienced and respected hi-fi journalists with a vast wealth of knowledge. Some have edited popular English language hi-fi magazines, and others have been senior contributors to famous audio journals stretching back to the late 1970s. And we also employ professional IT and home theatre specialists who work at the cutting edge of today’s technology.
We believe that no other online hi-fi and home cinema resource offers such expert knowledge, so when StereoNET gives an Applause Award, it is a trustworthy hallmark of quality. Receiving such an award is the prerequisite to becoming eligible for our annual Product of the Year awards, awarded only to the finest designs in their respective categories. Buyers of hi-fi, home cinema, and headphones can be sure that a StereoNET Applause Award winner is worthy of your most serious attention.
