About the Optoma UHD38X
Brilliant 4K projection
The Optoma UHD38X offers a bright, colorful 4K picture with extra-fast response times for gamers.
Brilliant 4K projection
The Optoma UHD38X projects a sharp 4K picture designed to match up with screens from 33" to 300" (sold separately). Its 4,000-lumen brightness makes it a solid pick even for rooms with a lot of ambient light, as long as there's no direct light on the screen.
This compact projector can be mounted from your ceiling or sit neatly on a tabletop or bookshelf. If you prefer to project directly onto your wall, you can adjust your image to match its color. You can also correct and adjust each corner to fit uneven spaces and line up a perfectly square image.
4K enhanced by HDR
The UHD38X's DLP projection technology delivers excellent picture quality and lets you take advantage of the range of 4K content now available by connecting up a 4K Blu-ray player, streaming stick, or next-gen gaming console using one of the projector's two HDMI ports. If 4K wasn't crisp enough, this projector also supports HDR10 and HLG High Dynamic Range (HDR), bringing out additional detail and contrast when viewing HDR-encoded programs.
Great for gaming
The projector's Enhanced Gaming Mode boosts contrast and color for detail-rich visuals. It also drops input lag down to 4.2 milliseconds to keep your controls nice and responsive. But, as they say, that's not all. If you're playing on a next-gen console you can benefit from a smooth 120 Hz refresh rate at Full HD (1080p), and if you have a compatible PC, you can play in Full HD all the way up to a buttery 240 Hz.
