Good, can be better
Great picture, easy setup.Issue 1 - Hard to align picture with 120 in screen, sorely needs lense shift like other high end projectors.Issue 2 - Missing YouTube TV which is available on LG TVsIssue 3 - Pricey

Great value, beautiful picture, decent enough sound.
The first one I ordered had problems.The second one seems much betterIt’s worth noting that they are using different ir receivers for the speakers vs the projector so if you are putting things in cabinets you may need to run a repeater to this unit specifically.Sound is as good as any tv.Picture is fantastic. I can watch tv in broad daylight again or with the lights on even if I need to. It’s pretty wonderful.4K hdr works really well. Took a little learning to make it work with Xbox One S. You have to disable some “auto features” and enable it on the projector for the port that Xbox is running on.

The best 4K dual laser UST in market
I had no real reference available as there are no LG authorized retailers around my area. So I followed this model from CES 2018 till launch and gone through all the information available on web before making decision to buy this product.I do not have a UST screen or specially prepared wall. I’m speechless with the picture quality, brightness and colors.This is definitely one of the costliest product however I’m fully convinced with the value it delivers.

Excellent UST but Hard To Justify Purchase at MSRP
I have had my HU85LA and 120” Grandview UST screen for two weeks now. Here are my impressions coming from OLED:Pros:-Very bright and vivid colors-Fan noise not very loud-Does not give off a lot of heat-120” is very immersive compared to my 65” OLED-ATSC Digital Tuner-3 Lasers (1 Red, 1 Blue, 1 Blue with Static Phosphor for Green)-120" Screen at only 7.2" from wall to back of projectorCons:-No color black option-Ordered first one from amazon new and it had a very loud coil whine. Returned and bought open box from another authorized dealer and this one does not have coil whine. If it does it hardly noticeable compared to the first one. YMMV.-Placement is almost impossible to perfect. I’ve spent over 12 hours total easily adjusting feet, position and screen where I wanted to pull my hair out and how tedious it is to get picture aligned. See attached setup with less than ideal stand but finally got it 97% fit with NO edge adjustment.Advice: screen flatness is key. I had to remove tension from mounting bracket to alleviate most of the fit issue. Thinking Tightening the brackets would make the screen more flat but it did the opposite. Also if your wall it not perfectly flat, it will cause alignment issues.-Struggles to output video without static fuzzy and black screen flickering when ATV4K set to Match Frame Rate On. Have to restart the projector to fix video output. Hit or miss if a video plays with it turned on.-No HLG support (ATSC 3.0 when rolled out to US will use HLG format)-No Apple TV app, HomeKit, Disney+ app etc support for expensive mid-high end USTPJ (but most have streaming device to AVR so not complete deal breaker)-Blacks are sacrificed but Dynamic Tone Mapping takes what is bearable to watch and then makes dark scenes unwatchable-120" screen edges start to lose focus and appears to maintain sharp edges at 110" and not so much at the maxThe cons seem big but this is my first projector and media room so it was a big learning experience. I installed myself so growing pains are expected. I do love the upgrade from OLED to Projector mainly because I wanted immersive viewing experience and could sacrifice the perfect blacks and dark highlights. In the dark, movies look very good after using calibration settings found online. Shadow detail is definitely lost compared to OLED and more grayish in really dark scenes. Dynamic Tone Mapping fails miserably and recommend to leave it turned off. Dark scenes are even harder to watch with DTM turned on and lose lots of detail to darkness. LG needs to provide a more precise way to adjust the projector on a mount of some kind and or recommendation for ceiling mounting (not sure if that increases alignment difficulty or not). Sony's USTPJ has some vertical/horizontal alignment screen adjustment which this LG sorely needs.At MSRP, I find this projector hard to recommend against the competitors. Finding an open box is the best value as I did. As expected with new technology and LG first gen UST, you are paying for the initial R&D.

((Info only)), have not pruchase
some important information.The cost is high/6K, but it does have the .66 dmd chip, which has a native resolution of 2716x1528 . I would still not purchase at 6k, maybe at 3,500.The vava and optoma p1 has the lower .44/.47 dmd chip which is native1080p. This why optoma and the vava(supposely) can do 3D.In fact, go the optoma web page it's states it has the .47 chip. The optoma ud60/65 has the .66 dmd chip.
