Optoma UHL 55

Now, who is this cube for? That’s a good one. The new Optoma UHL55 is compact, complete and modern. However, it lacks a zoom function in the lens, making placement difficult at times. For us, however, that is the only real shortcoming. We definitely see this projector in a house where a projector can’t hang continuously. Or perhaps in schools or in office environments where streaming via the network is a must.

Conclusion

The Optoma UHL55 is a nice device. It is versatile, works well and has a reasonable price. The advantage of LED technology is that there is no rainbow effect. We do miss the refinement in color reproduction compared to the bigger brothers: UHD65 and UHZ65. But yes: that's what the price is for.
