Product Summary
The Optoma UHZ36TE is a compact 4K UHD laser projector designed for big-screen films, television, live sport and gaming. Combining DLP projection technology with a bright 3,500 ISO-lumen laser light source, it produces detailed, vibrant images that remain clearly visible in a wide range of home-entertainment spaces.
Optoma’s PureEngine picture processing enhances different aspects of the image to create a more involving viewing experience. PureDetail sharpens fine textures, PureContrast improves the balance between dark scenes and bright highlights, and PureMotion helps fast-moving sport and action sequences appear smoother and clearer.
Support for HDR content improves brightness, colour and visible detail in compatible films, programmes and games. FILMMAKER MODE provides an alternative for film enthusiasts by disabling unnecessary motion processing and preserving the original frame rate, colour grading and aspect ratio of compatible content.
The long-life laser light source provides up to 30,000 hours of operation in Eco mode without requiring conventional projector-lamp replacements. A 1.3× optical zoom, automatic vertical keystone correction, horizontal keystone adjustment and support for 360-degree installation make the UHZ36TE flexible enough for tabletop, shelf or ceiling-mounted systems.
