If you're the type of person who needs lights on to watch for whatever reason this is probably not a good option for you
There are much better options for that scenario in this price range from Epson, BenQ, and others.
If you plan on buying a UST projector, make sure that the screen you are using is suitable for UST projectors (for example, permanent screens are a much better option than pull downs).Hopefully this helps people who are deciding on what type of projectors they want to buy, but don't get me wrong, this projector is great!
WebOs 3.0 has enough app options to watch movies e.g. netflix, vudu etc
since that option was not available, I went for returning the product and get refundedI am assuming this was an exceptional case
This is an awesome product, if you want a great projector in a small room, We are using this in our home theater, connected it with an XBOX and play games
Excellent product, easy to use and excellent image quality
This is an amazing product and everyone who has seen it in action at my place is super impressed with it

This is not a bad projector if you will be using in a dark environment and you need to smart TV
My wife, 2 kids and myself been spending more time watching movies on the projector than on our 65" LG 4K TV.Being able to use the same smart TV functions as on my regular TV is amazing
I wish they would make a model without the smart TV and up the brightness.
Picture is not as good as an HD TV, but pretty darn close.
If you are an intentional buyer please be aware Smart TV features will not work outside the US
We purchased the following screen to velcro to our wall and it improved the already great projector experience Excelvan Outdoor Portable Movie Screen 100'' 16:9 Home Cinema Projector Screen, PVC Fabric

The screen type was recommended by LG as standard projection screens or a specially prepared wall may not work well with a UST projector, because of the angle of light the projector casts.
Here's a picture to show you what you get with a portable screen.
Just sliding a few inches from the wall makes a very large, adjustable screen.
While this short throw projector is truly amazing it does have a few things you need to be mindful of
While the new LG OLED screens kill it in picture quality this LG short throw projector still looks good, uses a VERY small foot print,and all things considered is affordable

Always wanted a short throw projector, it's neat to have it make such a big image from so close
Picture quality:Picture and colors are actually great in a dark room.
Darker footage in a well-lighted room was visible, but of poor quality
And keep in mind if anyone moves the projector, you'll have to go thru the painful calibration and placement dance all over again (true for most projectors)Lumens:1000 lumens will get you a nice bright picture from the projector at night (especially inches from the wall), but you will have little chance of watching this (enjoyably) during the day or in a well-lit room.
Brightness is good, it's fine in dark or dim room, might not be bright enough for a bright lit room.
The contrast is also strong... as long as you are in a dark room.- LED bulbs... means no extra heat and it means it should have a long run life.-
