Optoma's latest 4K flagship projector aims for five-star models from Epson and Sony.
Taiwanese projector brand Optoma has announced its new flagship home cinema projector, the UHZ78LV.
This 4K triple laser DLP projector aims to deliver "premium large screen performance" according to the company, in both dedicated theater rooms and modern spaces.
The projector boasts a brightness of 5000 lumens and can project images from 80 inches to a maximum of 300 inches.
Optoma hopes that this brightness will help deliver movie-like scale, vibrant color accuracy, and powerful contrast performance even in environments with ambient light.
The new model features Dolby Vision, HDR10+, and IMAX Enhanced, while connectivity includes HDMI 2.1 and eARC support for Dolby Atmos passthrough to external sound systems.

Optoma's PureEngine Ultra system is also available on this 4K model. This includes color calibration by Optoma's internal image specialists, enhancements to brightness and detail, and a variety of options that allow users to customize the most important aspects of image quality.
The projector also offers useful installation flexibility options such as a motorized 1.6x zoom, lens shift, and 360-degree projection capabilities.
The Optoma UHZ78LV is scheduled to be released from March 2026, but the official launch price will have to wait a little longer.
Considering these specifications, this product appears to be targeting the Sony (Sony) VPL-XW5000ES. This award-winning Sony laser projector received five stars in our review and impressed with its detailed native 4K image and exceptional black levels.
Another five-star model in a similar range is the Epson EH-QB1000, which wowed us with its bright and vibrant HDR images.
