Ultra HD 4K model, the LG HU710PB is therefore based on a triple RGB laser light source, which explains its announced performance, particularly for gamut coverage, 154% of DCI-P3. The integration of a laser light source also implies improved ergonomics, no need to replace the lamps regularly for example.
LG Cinebeam Qube, a unique design
Another remarkable aspect of the LG Cinebeam Qube is its design, which is very different from traditional video projectors. Its name, Qube, is however misleading, the LG HU710PB comes in a rectangular shape, with a size close to that of a satellite speaker (80 x 135 x 135 mm). In addition to a weight contained at 1.49 kg on the scale, its portable nature is apparent in view of its 360-degree rotating carrying handle. Please note, it also serves as a wedge for the LG Cinebeam Qube once it is placed on a support.
LG HU710PB, 500 peak lumens
The creator of the LG Cinebeam Qube indicates that its performance in terms of brightness reaches 500 peak lumens, again a remarkable figure for a portable specimen. Thus, the LG HU710PB is capable of projecting images from 50'' (127 cm) to 120'' (305 cm) for a displayed contrast ratio of 450,000:1. Even if the latter seems optimistic, the specifications of the LG Cinebeam Qube open, in the absence of those of the Home Cinema room, the doors of the living room to enjoy a sports broadcast, a gaming session and even occasionally 'a film or series. Moreover, in its presentation of the LG HU710PB, the Korean manufacturer mentions its cinematographic qualities with deep blacks and rich colors. For clarification, HDR10 compatibility is required.
LG Cinebeam Qube, ergonomics and connectivity
Like more and more video projectors, the LG CineBeam Qube features automatic focusing and Keystone (trapezoidal) correction which prevents focusing and geometry errors. A good point for a portable video projector intended to move regularly from projection location. The connectivity of the CineBeam Qube is simple but the essentials are there with an HDMI input equipped with the eARC function (to recover the sound from the video projector and send it to a soundbar or a Home Cinema system) and a USB Type-C port, not to mention wireless support for Android and iOS systems.

Indicative price and availability of the LG HU710PB still unknown. More details on this subject, and on the other technical characteristics, probably next week at the CES show in Las Vegas.
