Hisense has been working on laser projectors (or laser TVs, as they’re sometimes called) for several years, but CES 2023 marks the first time the company has shown off a portable version of its high-brightness projector technology. It made its debut at the show with the Hisense Smart Mini Projector, along with four other models of laser TVs. Pricing or release dates were not immediately available. The company has also launched its lineup of TVs by 2023 and introduced a new ultra-bright flagship TV called UX.
By 2023, Hisense has decided to divide its laser TV products into two categories: Laser TV and Laser Cinema. The difference is that the Laser TV models are Ultra Short Throw (UST) projectors that come with their own Ambient Light Rejecting (ALR) screens and are designed to project images at non-adjustable sizes, just like a regular TV. On the other hand, the Laser Cinema models (except the Mini) are also UST, but they have an adjustable image size and do not come with a screen.
Both the Laser TV and Laser Cinema categories run the Google TV Smart TV interface, except for the Hisense Smart Mini Projector, which uses Hisense’s own VIDAA Smart TV operating system.

L9H Trichromatic Laser TV

Hisense’s flagship laser is the L9 series, which has a triple laser light engine, TriChroma, and can support HDR 10 and Dolby Vision, at 107% of the BT.2020 color space, which basically means there isn’t a single color from a streaming movie or UHD Blu-ray that this projector can’t display. It’s also impressively bright at 3,000 ANSI lumens.
In addition to its Google TV interface, it also has a built-in NextGen TV (ATSC 3.0) tuner for free OTA streams up to 4K. Wi-Fi 6e will help with wireless speed and stability when using a compatible router, and built-in Airplay 2 lets you stream audio and video from any compatible Apple device or computer. Hisense says the L9H has ultra-fast HDMI ports, but we don’t yet know how many or what HDMI 2.1 features it supports, like 120Hz gaming or variable refresh rate (VRR).
It comes with a new high gain ALR screen with easy image calibration and a newly designed frame to ease the installation process. The L9H comes in 100-inch and 120-inch screen sizes.
L5H 4K Smart Laser TV

The L9H tri-color laser system is impressive, but also expensive. To keep things more affordable and fun, the L5 series uses a single X-Fusion blue laser light source, but still supports Dolby Vision, making it an attractive alternative for people looking for an ultra-large screen experience.
Its high-gain ALR display should provide enough rejection to work even in broad daylight, according to Hisense. Like the L9H, it has some great features like FilmMaker mode, Google TV, NextGen TV, Wi-Fi 6e, and Airplay 2. Its HDMI ports include HDMI ARC/eARC capability.
Hisense says the L5H has a 40W speaker array capable of virtual Dolby Atmos, and you can choose between 100-inch or 120-inch screen sizes.
PL1 laser cinema

As Hisense’s introduction to ultra short throw projection, the new PL1 Laser Cinema features an adjustable autofocus lens that allows it to project images from 80 to 120 inches.
It uses a single X-Fusion laser light source, which can produce up to 2100 lumens, using a blue laser and a color phosphor filter laser. Hisense didn’t provide any further details, but the PL1 is likely to have a variety of HDMI and wireless connectivity options, as well as a built-in sound system.
TriChroma PX2-Pro Laser Cine
Using the same TriChroma Laser system as the L9H, the PX2-Pro can reach a maximum brightness of up to 2400 ANSI lumens and is compatible with Dolby Vision and HDR10.
It has a digital lens focusing system that allows you to choose any image size you need from 90 to 130 inches diagonally. As with the L9H, you get Google TV, ultra-high-speed HDMI ports, and Airplay 2.
Hisense Smart Mini Projector

Despite being Hisense’s smallest laser projector, the Smart Mini Projector can project the largest range and image size in this category: from 65 to 150 inches. This is unusual even for 8K laser systems.
Hisense claims it gets 1600 ANSI lumens of brightness using the same TriChroma triple laser light engine as the L9H and PX2-Pro. Like those projectors, it supports 107% of the BT.2020 color space. It also has 4K resolution with Dolby Vision and HDR10. Its two 20W JBL speakers are compatible with Dolby Atmos and DTS audio. It has Amazon Alexa built-in and is compatible with AirPlay 2.
