The AWOL Vision LVT-2500. — Amazon

Want to take your movie nights to the next level? While the majority of your friends and family are stuck with TVs, you’ll be the one cat on the block to own an all-hands-on-deck ultra-short throw projector. Earlier today, we found this amazing offer on a UST projector that we just had to write home about:

For a limited time, when you purchase the AWOL Vision LTV-2500 UST Projector, you’ll only pay $2,000. At full price, this model sells for $3,000. You may also want to check out our list of the best projector deals for more discounts on top tech.

Why you should buy the AWOL Vision LTV-2500

We reviewed this model’s big brother, the LTV-3500, and gave it a 9 out of 10 rating — but the price difference is considerable. The 2500 is still a good option. Besides having the ability to place the LTV-2500 only a few inches away from the wall you’ll be projecting onto, the AWOL Vision is also a center-channel speaker. Thanks to AWOL’s CenterSync feature, the projector is able to enhance dialogue and vocals, making all the most important lines in the movie that much more discernible. And with its Dolby Atmos capabilities, the AWOL even does a nice job at creating a large, virtual surround system.

With its 2,500:1 contrast ratio, class-leading HDR support, and wide color gamut, the LTV-2500 throws a picture like one you’d see at a pro-grade movie theater. Its triple laser system is partly to thank, along with the projector’s 107% coverage of the Rec.2020 color space and eight-point keystone correction.

It’s hard to say how long this top-notch projector is going to be discounted, but we’re willing to bet the sale isn’t going to last too much longer. That being said, today might be the best day to save on this model. Take $1,000 off the AWOL Vision LTV-2500 UST Projector when you order today.

We also recommend checking out our roundup of the best 85-inch TV deals if you’d rather go with a big-screen QLED or OLED. And if you need some more gift ideas, we have a solid list of Amazon deals for you to peruse, too.

Go big or go home: Samsung’s 98-inch TV is $1,000 off

Samsung 98-inch DU9000 4K TV.

Most people won't likely look at or need a TV over 75 or even 85 inches, but if you've ever wanted to go as truly large as you can, then this massive 98-inch TV from Samsung might be worth looking at. Samsung makes some of the best TVs on the market, so it's no surprise that the brand has pulled out such a huge screen for those who want it. That said, it is quite pricey, and while it usually goes for an eye-watering $4,000, you can actually get it for $3,000 directly from Samsung. While that is still isn't cheap, that $1,000 discount is quite significant.

Why you should buy the 98-inch Samsung Crystal UHD DU9000
Of course, because the Samsung Crystal UHD DU9000 is so expensive, it comes with all the bells and whistles you'd expect of such an excellent screen. For example, while most TVs tend to come with a 50-60Hz refresh rate, this one can handle up to 120Hz, which makes it not only excellent for solo gaming but also for couch co-op games with split screens. That said, it only runs a 4K resolution, which might be a problem for a screen that big if you're sitting close to it, although it does have a 4K AI upscaler, so at least you down have to throw away some of your older content.

This projector is specifically designed for gaming, and it’s $500 off

benq x300g projector deal october 2024

When you think about gaming on the go, you're probably thinking about something like a gaming laptop or a handheld console like a Nintendo Switch, and that's because it's pretty hard to lug around a massive TV with you wherever you go. Of course, projectors have been another option, but a lot of them aren't made specifically for gaming, and that's where the BenQ X300G Projector comes in; it's a projector that has been built from the ground up with gaming in mind, and it's surprisingly fantastic. Even better, it has a massive $500 discount from BenQ directly, so it's going for $1,299 instead of the usual $1,799.

Why you should buy the BenQ X300G Projector
One thing that sets the BenQ X300G apart is that it considers things like input lag and refresh rate, which a lot of other projectors don't. So, if you're into competitive FPS games, for example, you can actually get it to run at 1080p and an impressive 240Hz with only a 4.2ms input lag, which is pretty much on par with some of the best gaming monitors. On the other hand, if you're gaming on a console and want to take advantage of 4K, you can run it at 4K with 60Hz, although you do get a worse 16.7ms input lag, so you probably don't want to use that mode for anything that has high-intensity or competitive gameplay.
