LUMA Beam throws a real 1080p picture on any wall, from a device the size of a paperback. Autofocus and auto keystone do the setup — you just press play.

A 65-inch TV costs a month of rent and owns your wall forever. Projectors used to mean a dark room, a tripod, and 20 minutes of fiddling with focus.
You buy it, you mount it, you keep it for eight years. Moving apartments means selling it at half price or leaving it behind.
Holding a 6-inch screen on your chest is not cinema. But "watch on the wall" still sounds like a gadget project, not a Tuesday.
Find the keystone menu. Turn off the lights. Move it two inches left. Repeat. Half the fun is gone before the film starts.
No menus, no remote calibration, no app to pair on first use.
Coffee table, nightstand, a stack of books. Up to 30° off-axis and it still squares the picture on its own.
A time-of-flight sensor measures the wall and locks focus in under a second. Move it mid-film and it refocuses without a pause.
AirPlay, Cast and Miracast built in. Or run a stick, console or laptop off the HDMI 2.1 port without a dongle chain.
Not the inflated "lux" numbers on cheap spec sheets. Measured the way reviewers measure it, with a warm-white LED and a coated lens.
An infrared sensor maps the wall, then a motor moves the lens. Tilt it 30° and the picture is square before you sit down.
Two speakers with a passive radiator on the back. Loud enough for a bedroom; a 3.5 mm jack and Bluetooth take it further when you want it.
Lay it flat and tilt the beam up. A 70-inch picture on the ceiling, no wall mount, no glare in your eyes.
Three hours of battery covers most films. Hook a speaker over Bluetooth and the neighbours get the good version.
No holes, no brackets, no deposit conversation. It packs into a 7-inch cube and moves with you.
A projector is not a TV. Here is the trade in plain numbers, so you can decide before you buy.

I was ready to return it if the fan was loud. It sits two feet from me and I forget it's on. The autofocus is the part that actually feels like magic — I moved it from the desk to the bed mid-episode and it just fixed itself.
Straight talk: at 2pm with the blinds open it looks washed out. Close them halfway and it's genuinely good. At night it's better than the cinema near my flat. The screen in the kit is worth it — a bare wall has too much texture.
Full charge played Return of the King with about 20 minutes left. The keystone handled a tilted tent wall better than I expected. Only wish the case had a pocket for the remote.
Put it on your wall, watch three films, decide. If the picture isn't what you hoped, we email you a prepaid label and refund the whole thing — screen and tripod included.
Not a dark room — a dim one. At 500 ANSI lumens it's fully usable with the blinds half closed in the afternoon, and it looks best after sunset. If you need a bright-room picture at noon, a TV is still the right answer.
30 to 100 inches diagonal, at a throw distance of 0.8 to 2.6 metres. Most people land around 70–80 inches, which is roughly a 1.5 m wide picture on a normal apartment wall.
Three hours at 60% brightness, which is the setting most people use indoors. At full brightness expect about 2 hours 20. It charges over USB-C at 65 W, so a laptop charger works.
Yes — HDMI 2.1 with a 18 ms input lag in game mode. 1080p120 is supported for consoles. It is not a 4K projector, so a PS5 will run at 1080p; it looks sharp, just not native 4K.
Solo is the projector, USB-C cable and remote. Cinema adds a 1/4-inch tripod and an 80-inch ambient-light-rejecting screen. Home adds the padded carry case on top of that.
Orders leave the warehouse within 24 hours on business days. Express is 2–4 days to the US, UK and EU, and duties are prepaid at checkout — nothing to pay on delivery. Returns are free within 30 days.
Everything else is a setup step. LUMA Beam removes all of them.
