Optoma launches new home projector for lights on viewing

TV fans, gamers and those that love to watch live sports or films can now enjoy a super-sized cinema quality picture in their own home with the new Optoma HD142X projector.

Created 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.

Joe Ahmed, Head of Marketing at Optoma EMEA, said: “The new HD142X is an all-round home entertainment projector, combining high 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”.

Weighing less than 2.5kg you can take the HD142X 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.

Amazing Colour technology

Optoma’s Amazing Colour technology ensures vibrant, long-lasting and accurate colours to match any application or environment. Equipped with an enhanced colour wheel and multiple modes and settings to choose from, the HD142X gives users the freedom to select the best setting for the content. Each mode has been fine-tuned by Optoma’s expert colour team to ensure superior colour performance. Reference mode reproduces accurate Rec.709 HDTV broadcast spec colours – ensuring reproduction of cinematic colour - exactly as the director intended.

Easy connectivity

Two HDMI inputs enable an easy setup - perfect for connecting a laptop, PC, Blu-ray player, media streamer or games console. This projector also works with Optoma’s WHD200 which is designed to stream video content wirelessly - up to 20 metres in any room.

Smart projection

The HD142X can even be turned into a smart projector by connecting a HDMI dongle like the HDCast Pro (sold separately), Google Chromecast™ or Amazon Fire TV to play games, stream videos and share photos on the big screen in the comfort of your own home.

Built-in speakers

For added convenience, the HD142X comes complete with an integrated speaker that delivers powerful 10W audio, with exceptional sound quality. Despite the small dimensions of the projector, the level of audio created will easily fill a living space. An audio output is also included, enabling connection to external sound systems.

Gaming mode

The gaming mode setting is designed to optimise the projector for lightning response times, maximum contrast and vivid colours.  This captures every detail, leaving gamers time to simply focus on winning.
