Epson's New 4K Projectors: Big-Screen Cinema Experience for Your Living Room

Epson has kicked off 2026 with a clear message for home entertainment fans. Big-screen viewing is no longer limited to dedicated home theatres. With the launch of the Lifestudio Grand EH-LS670B and the EH-LS9000B, Epson is targeting two very different audiences, one focused on flexible living room entertainment, the other on serious home cinema performance, without pushing prices into the ultra-premium stratosphere. While both projectors deliver 4K visuals powered by Epson’s 3LCD technology, their roles at home could not be more different. EH-LS670B is a living room projector first and foremost The Lifestudio Grand EH-LS670B is Epson’s latest ultra-short-throw home projector, designed to sit close to the wall and replace a traditional TV setup. It can project screen sizes of up to 120 inches from just 70cm away, making it well-suited for compact apartments and multipurpose living spaces. Positioned as a successor to Epson’s earlier lifestyle ultra-short throw models like the EH-LS650B, the EH-LS670B brings noticeable upgrades across brightness, processing, and audio. It delivers 3,600 lumens of colour and white brightness, ensuring images remain vibrant even in well-lit rooms. On the visual side, Epson’s 4K PRO-UHD technology is paired with AI Super Resolution and AI Picture Quality, which dynamically sharpen details, enhance motion, and optimise contrast based on content. A dynamic colour booster further adjusts saturation scene by scene for richer visuals. Audio is a major part of the appeal. Built-in Bose speakers deliver powerful, room-filling sound with reduced fan noise, eliminating the need for an external soundbar in many setups. The EH-LS670B also doubles as an all-in-one entertainment hub. With Google TV, Chromecast built-in, and access to streaming services like Netflix, Prime Video, Disney+, and YouTube, it is designed to be switched on and enjoyed with minimal setup. Karaoke, gaming, live sports, and even fitness videos are all part of the intended use case. EH-LS9000B targets serious home cinema fans At the other end of the spectrum is the EH-LS9000B, a standard-throw 4K projector built for dedicated home theatre rooms. It replaces the well-regarded EH-TW9400, bringing faster startup times, improved HDR performance, and laser-based longevity. The EH-LS9000B uses a solid-state laser light source rated for up to 20,000 hours, powering up to full brightness in just eight seconds, a significant improvement over the lamp-based EH-TW9400. There are no bulbs to replace, keeping long-term ownership costs low. To get it set up and ready to use quickly and easily, it comes equipped with a 3-axis motorised lens, so the EH-LS9000B allows for precise horizontal and vertical shifts without any loss of picture clarity or distortion. Even handier, if you’re not sure where you want to use it, that’s no problem, as it comes with 10 lens memory presets, so you can quickly set and store zoom, focus, and lens position settings, enabling flexible installation across various room configurations. There is also support for Control4, Crestron, and PJLink, making the projector well-suited for custom home theatre setups and smart home integration. These are technologies focused on automation and device control, with the first two being comprehensive high-end smart home systems and the third a standardised protocol for projectors. Picture quality is where the EH-LS9000B shines. It supports HDR10+, 4K frame interpolation, Scene Adaptive Gamma Correction, and Auto Contrast Enhancement, all working together to deliver deeper blacks, brighter highlights, and smoother motion. Epson’s 3LCD system ensures consistent colour brightness, something DLP-based rivals often struggle with. Two projectors, two very different lifestyles What makes Epson’s 2026 lineup interesting is how clearly defined each model is. The EH-LS670B is for users who want a cinematic experience without dedicating a room to it. It is built to replace the TV, simplify setup, and handle everything from movies to karaoke nights with minimal fuss. The EH-LS9000B, on the other hand, is aimed at enthusiasts who care deeply about picture accuracy, HDR performance, and installation flexibility, but who do not want to pay flagship prices. Both projectors go on sale in Singapore from 23 January 2026, reinforcing Epson’s push to make large-screen entertainment more accessible, whether that means a stylish living room centrepiece or a proper home cinema anchor.
