Introduction
At LG, we believe remarkable home entertainment should fit seamlessly into your lifestyle. That’s why we’re thrilled to guide you through everything you need to know about the UK/EU rollout of the LG CineBeam S Mini UST 4K Projector—a powerful innovation that brings big-screen cinema into even the most compact living spaces.
1. What Makes It “Mini” Yet Mighty?
Ultra-Compact Build, Ultra-Immersive Display
- Measuring just 110 × 160 × 160 mm and weighing roughly 1.9 kg, the CineBeam S Mini offers a cinematic experience “about the size of a box of tea leaves”.
- Despite its compact form, it projects a 4K image (3840 × 2160) up to 100 inches diagonally, with a stunning 0.25:1 ultra-short throw ratio that lets you place it just 8.1 cm from the screen for a 40-inch image.
Bright, Vivid Visuals
- Powered by a three-channel RGB laser, it outputs 500 ANSI lumens—bright enough to enjoy movie nights even in moderately lit rooms.
- Color performance is outstanding, covering 154% of the DCI-P3 gamut and offering a contrast ratio of 450,000:1 for lifelike colors and deep blacks.
2. Smart Features to Elevate Your Experience
Streaming at Your Fingertips
- Dive into your favorite apps—Netflix, Disney+, YouTube, Apple TV—via webOS 24, LG’s intuitive smart platform.
- Connect seamlessly with AirPlay 2 and Miracast for wireless screen sharing.
Made for Easy Setup
- Auto Screen Adjustment, together with Wall Color and Scaling Tools, lets you fine-tune display alignment without moving the projector.
- Filmmaker Mode preserves cinematic vision, while HDR10 ensures richer highlights (note: Dolby Vision is not supported).
Impressive Audio and Connectivity
- Immerse yourself with integrated Dolby Atmos-capable stereo speakers.
- Flexible connectivity includes HDMI eARC and two USB-C ports for modern setups.
3. Europe Launch: Key Dates and Pricing
- Pre-orders open across Europe on September 1, 2025, with deliveries expected to begin in October.
- The unit is priced at €1,299 in the EU market—reflecting its premium, space-saving build and feature-rich design.
- It’s already available to order in Canada, Australia, and the UK (around £1,099) and is rolling out globally following its CES 2025 unveiling.
- U.S. availability remains unannounced as of now.
4. Why It Stands Out
A Design Revolution in Projection
- By packing powerful 4K projection into a mini chassis, LG challenges the notion that UST projectors must be bulky.
Tailored Features for Real-world Use
- Daylight-friendly images, smart app access, easy calibration, and sleek looks create a compelling, practical home theatre solution.
