Hey Ultimea family,
We’ve talked a lot about sound lately, but today let’s talk about visuals. Because what’s great sound without a great picture, right?
And when we talk about visuals, one question always comes up - Projector or TV?
Which one really gives that true cinema feeling at home? Let’s see what makes both special.
The main reason people go for a projector is simple - big screen and cinema-like vibe.
• You can easily get a 100” or even 150” screen without spending crazy money.
• In a dark room, it feels like you’re actually sitting in a theater.
• The soft light and huge screen just make everything more fun to watch.
But yes, projectors need a bit more setup and care than TVs.
TVs are easier and more reliable.
• Picture stays bright and clear even during the day.
• You don’t have to worry about room light or screen distance.
• You just turn it on, pick a show, and you’re ready to go.
So for everyday use, sports, or quick watching - TV still feels like the better choice.
If you want your projector to really shine, a few things matter:
• It should be bright enough to watch even with some light in the room.
• Darker blacks make the image feel more cinematic.
• A good quality screen improves the picture a lot.
• You need enough distance between projector and screen for a clear image.
• And make sure it’s not too noisy — fan sound can spoil quiet movie moments.
Modern laser projectors are getting better each year — brighter, quieter, and sharper than ever.
I think both are great - it just depends on your setup.
If you have a dark room and love movie nights, projector is perfect.
If your room has more light or you watch TV all day, a big TV makes more sense.
Personally, if I ever make a dedicated movie room, I’ll definitely go with a projector which I already tried. That large screen just feels different!
• Are you Team Projector or Team TV?
• Have you ever tried both?
• And if Ultimea launches a projector soon, would you go for it?
• Share your thoughts below — let’s see what the Ultimea fam thinks!

Big screen, small screen — at the end, it’s all about great sound and better moments.

Why TVs Still Win in Many Homes

Your point about a "dedicated studio" hits the nail on the head—there's nothing like a dark room, a big screen, and powerful speakers to make you feel like you're part of the story.
