Gadgets: Optoma UHD50X

A speedy gaming screen that’s 30 times bigger than your average monitor.

While for many the fact that Optoma’s UHD50X is a 4K projector capable of throwing a 302-inch picture across a wall in your house is impressive enough, but it also happens to be the world’s first 240Hz gaming projector. Now, pro gamers shouldn’t get their hopes up just yet since there’s still a 15ms+ response time on its fastest setting, but for more casual console gaming this shouldn’t be much of an issue. The UHD50X even supports HDR10 using its 3000 lumen peak brightness to display many more colours than conventional SDR TVs this is one of the closest things we’ve seen to a fully fledged cinema at home.
