Update*** July of 2021
Hdmi 1 port completely stopped working after 1.8 years. They provided 2 year warranty on it though and and a label so I’m about to ship it out. I’ll keep you updated. I had to insist my model had a two year warranty though to the warranty rep before he honored it. Normally they only offer one year.
A little backstory on this issue is that I got a Sonos arc earlier in late 2020 and after using atmos for almost 6 months the audio started dropping out and projector overheating. So I actually bought the HD fury arcana to split the signal and reduce the strain on the projector since it doesn’t have hdmi eArc, just HDMI Arc which it uses a spare pin on the cable for a lossy atmos connection. We’ll a few weeks later it failed anyways so I guess I was too late. :(.
***OG Review.
The first one I ordered had problems.
The second one seems much better
It’s worth noting that they are using different ir receivers for the speakers vs the projector so if you are putting things in cabinets you may need to run a repeater to this unit specifically.
Sound is as good as any tv.
Picture is fantastic. I can watch tv in broad daylight again or with the lights on even if I need to. It’s pretty wonderful.
4K hdr works really well. Took a little learning to make it work with Xbox One S. You have to disable some “auto features” and enable it on the projector for the port that Xbox is running on.
****More UPDATES:
Projector is still solid but I figured I would note a few things. That might help people make a decision.
Some good.
You’re paying for excellence. It’s the shortest throw ratio I could find and the brightest picture at the time. The other projector by .... optima? Has more Lumens but a longer throw ratio making infinitely more cumbersome. Seriously. 5 inches from the wall means 15 inches in height and it makes all the difference in the world.
The vava projector is worse on both counts, throw ratio and lumens.
I wish they had a wireless surround system you could integrate in, but I’ve figure out how to make own mostly. I started with the iogear wireless hdmi but eventually gave up and gave into Sonos arc + Sonos sub + Sonos amp.
Initially I hung the screen in the wall but after moving this time I just bought a floor rising screen and it work really well. Worth every penny, aside form the shipping damage (which vividstorm is replacing for me).
They recently updated it so you could connect with Alexa and google home. Shows investment in the product
The magic remote is dope. Between the harmony app, the harmony remote, and the magic remote I can control all my devices and I have enough controllers that I can lose a few and still watch tv. Lol
Some not so good:
HomeKit/Apple TV isn’t available yet and they haven’t committed to support it either... I got around this with a harmony hub originally now I use homebridge.
The edge adjustment is useful but cumbersome. If it had to do it often I would send this back. I wish I could grab the edge and drag it to where I wanted it but it’s literally clicking a direction over and over again.
This thing needs great airflow. I’m building a cabinet for the screen and projector and oh boy... trying to come up with an design that is beautiful, functional, and maximum airflow is challenging.
Every once in a while I think it shuts off to cool itself down and I have to hard reset to get it to work again. Worrisome but not troublesome.
I wish the magic remote mouse was available on my Xbox. Lol

while owning a lg uh80ka 4k laser projector for 2.5 years, i got a lg uh85la for the family room. uh85la is much better than an already good uh80ka projector.
uh85la has 3 laser lights so the color is pop and is so much better than uh80ka, slightly brighter, convenient to install.
before screen arrival, i projected it to the wall. i just realized the perfectly looking wall is so curved to UST image and i need to adjust every 12 of adjust points to make it close to square. after got a nice but lower cost screen, i only need to adjust top line a little bit to make it near perfect. compared to the front projector, UST is very, very sensitive to the screen quality / flatness. i can notice when the temperature changed, the stand and floor changed a little, the image size changes a lot. even adjust focus, the top portion image size changes. so be very careful when try to install screen. i had to drill 3 times to hang it right, although there are adjust feet and calculated carefully.
because it still only has 2700 lumens, during day time, i need to close curtains to get better image.
overall, i am 100% satisfied with my new projector. pricey but worth it imo
