In the third quarter of 2017, according to data from Ove Cloud Network, laser TV sales saw a massive increase of 224%, with more and more users opting for laser TVs to enjoy a big-screen experience at home. I’ve noticed that several friends around me have also chosen to install a laser TV in their living room. While they praise the immersive experience of the large screen, they also share some common complaints. However, the issues they raise are unique—those who haven’t bought a laser TV might not even care about them.
Today, I’d like to share some of these user experiences and pain points, hoping to help you make a better choice when buying a laser TV.
Many people mistakenly think that a laser TV is just a machine, but that’s not entirely true. According to the "Laser TV Evaluation Standard 1.0" by Zhongguancun Online, a laser TV is essentially a reflective ultra-short-throw projector with a laser light source. It also includes an anti-glare screen and sound system. These components are all part of what makes it a "solution-type product."
I once had a friend complain that the brightness of his laser TV wasn’t sufficient. He said he couldn’t see the image clearly during the day in his living room. But when we checked the ANSI brightness, it was actually quite high. The issue turned out to be that he hadn’t purchased the anti-glare screen and instead used a white wall as the projection surface. That’s why the image looked dim.
The key here is that the anti-glare screen isn’t just for projecting images—it’s designed to reduce ambient light interference. Unlike a white wall, which reflects light diffusely, the anti-glare screen uses optical technology or physical structures to minimize glare and enhance clarity, especially in well-lit environments.
Another important feature is the "information screen" function. This involves an infrared sensor on the laser TV that automatically turns off the screen if someone gets too close, preventing bright light from directly hitting the eyes. While some users may find this inconvenient, it's particularly useful for families with young children. Kids who are just learning to walk might get curious and stare directly at the light source, which can be harmful to their developing eyesight.
Interface design is another area where laser TVs fall short. Most models place HDMI, USB, and VGA ports on the back of the unit. However, since laser TVs are ultra-short-throw projectors, the back is often very close to the wall, making it hard to access these ports. This can be frustrating when connecting devices like gaming consoles or Blu-ray players. Some manufacturers have started placing common interfaces on the side, which is a more user-friendly approach.
Manual focusing is another pain point. Many laser TVs still require manual focus adjustments, which can be cumbersome compared to traditional TVs. While moving the TV isn't frequent, it's still a hassle, especially for those who aren't physically strong. Auto-focus would be a welcome improvement, especially as it's already standard in micro-projectors.
Although the laser TV market is still in its early stages, with standards and features still evolving, there's a lot of potential. As the industry matures, more attention will be given to user experience details like auto-focus, anti-glare screens, and smart safety features. For now, consumers should consider these factors carefully before making a purchase.
Ultimately, while technical specs like brightness and color accuracy are important, small but impactful features like the information screen and auto-focus can significantly improve daily use. Choosing the right laser TV means looking beyond the basics and considering how it fits into your lifestyle.
