IFA 24 > Samsung The Premiere 7, Ultra HD 4K ultra-short throw laser projector

After the Samsung The Premiere 9, we continue our presentation of the The Premiere range of video projectors from the Korean manufacturer with the Samsung The Premiere 7, also refreshed for the IFA show in Berlin 2024.

As a reminder, the series of The Premiere video projectors is a new range of products in the Samsung catalog ensuring that you experience cinema or sports emotions on a grand scale with a minimum of space and installation.

Samsung The Premiere 7, integrated DVB-T and DVB-S tuners££££

First observation, the Samsung The Premiere 7 can advantageously replace a television thanks to an integrated [abc]DVB-T[/abc]/[abc]DVB-S[/abc] tuner. With however a difference in size: that of the displayed image, 120" maximum (approximately 304 cm) diagonal for a 10 cm distance, which is much more than all televisions. All with an extremely small footprint compared to an [abc]LCD[/abc] or [abc]Oled[/abc] screen.

Samsung The Premiere 7, 100% of the Rec.2020 gamut££££

The Samsung The Premiere 7 is based on a [abc]DLP[/abc] TI [abc]4K[/abc] chip and a simple blue laser light source. It displays, according to its creator, 100% of the DCI-P3 gamut (compared to 83% on the 2020 LSP7T) for a brightness of 2,500 lumens (compared to 2,200 lumens). Another detail, [abc]HDR10+[/abc] compatibility is on the menu and a sound bar is integrated.

The Samsung The Premiere 7 includes an [abc]Upscaling[/abc] Ultra HD [abc]4K[/abc] based on AI-boosted image processing. The Vision Booster function automatically adjusts brightness and contrast according to ambient lighting. A solar remote control, like that of the brand's TVs, is provided.

Samsung The Premiere 7, main specifications££££

In terms of specifications, we can also mention a Ceiling mode for integrating the video projector into the ceiling, the Filmmaker mode, the [abc]AirPlay 2[/abc] and Chromecast functions, management of the Bixby voice assistant as well as access to all the best [abc]OTT[/abc] services. Similarly, Samsung has thought of gamers who want to enjoy their favorite titles in very large format with an Input [abc]Lag[/abc] of 53 milliseconds.

We should also mention the Tizen interface (which is now guaranteed to be updated for seven years, see our Samsung Smart TV news, 7 years of Tizen updates guaranteed), further accentuating the impression for the consumer of being in front of a Samsung television, with the image size in addition.

Samsung The Premiere 7, DLP chip££££

On the matrix side, we find a 0.66" [abc]DLP[/abc] chip with a native resolution of 2,716 x 1,528 pixels (and unfortunately stuck at 60 Hz). The Ultra HD 4K definition is simulated using the exclusive Texas Instrument wobulation technology called XPR2. Precision, the design evolves at the margin with a slightly more rounded curved front.

The word to Tonnie van Schijndel, Samsung TV and Audio Marketing Director££££

"The Premiere range is ready to redefine the premium home cinema experience by combining our advanced laser technology with cutting-edge, user-friendly features that deliver exceptional picture quality and immersive sound," said Tonnie van Schijndel, Samsung TV and Audio Marketing Director.
