Awol Vision Opens LuxVision Preorders for $5,999 4K 120Hz UST Projector

Summary

  • September 5 marks the start of discounted preorders for Awol Vision’s LuxVision, a new ultra-short-throw projector due to launch around October at a $5,999 list price.
  • The pitch centers on optical vertical lens shift — unusual for a UST model — letting users adjust image position without keystone correction or other digital processing that can soften 4K detail.
  • Awol says the projector delivers a 120-inch 4K 120Hz image from 7.5 inches away at 6,000 ISO lumens, positioning it as a TV replacement for sports and movie viewing.
  • Gaming features include Dolby Vision Gaming HDR, VRR, ALLM, roughly 1ms input lag, plus three HDMI 2.1 ports, one DisplayPort and multiview for up to four sources.
  • The total setup cost runs higher once buyers add an ambient-light-rejecting screen, which the report says can add about $1,000 to improve viewing performance.
