The Smart Home projector is the future-proof Smart TV alternative for modern living spaces. Unlike its predecessors, you can control the Smart Home projector conveniently via app or voice command. It often comes with integrated streaming apps, so you no longer need an external player. This seamless integration into your Smart Home - via Alexa control, for example - is the key difference. Want to stream films, share content wirelessly and without additional devices? Our Smart Home projectors are ideal for living rooms, home cinemas or multifunctional media rooms. Our tip: Buy Smart projectors if you value wireless freedom, brilliant resolution and whisper-quiet technology.

The perfect home cinema setup with Smart Home projectors

What exactly makes a Smart Home projector? Unlike conventional projectors, which only display the image, a Smart Home projector functions as an independent entertainment hub. It has an integrated operating system and WLAN functionality. For you, this means that no complicated cable runs and no additional streaming stick are necessary. The projector can stream content, run apps and is therefore immediately ready to transform your home into a flexible, smart cinema.

Smart projectors features: The difference to standard projectors

A classic projector only serves as an output device and must receive an image signal via external devices. A Smart Home projector, on the other hand, is an independent, networked multimedia centre. Thanks to integrated operating systems such as Android TV or similar platforms, you can directly access apps that you are familiar with from your Smart TV

Streaming services

You can use popular streaming services such as Netflix, Amazon Prime Video or Disney+ directly via the projector without having to connect an external player or streaming stick. This saves on cables and makes operation much more convenient

Image, space and technology: the most important criteria for buying your Smart Home projector

The modern Smart Home projector should not only deliver an excellent picture, but also blend seamlessly into your home. Here you can find out which features are crucial.
Icon resolution

The right image quality: resolution and brightness

In the living room, lighting is rarely completely controllable. Brightness and resolution are therefore crucial.

  • Brightness: As there is often residual light in the living room, your projector should have a higher lumen rating - ideally over 2,500 ANSI lumens. The brighter your room, the more lumens you need to get a high-contrast, clear image. For rooms that cannot be darkened at all, you should look specifically for a daylight projector to ensure a sharp and brilliant image even during the day.
  • Resolution: For a future-proof and detailed film experience, we recommend 4K UHD (Ultra HD) projectors. This resolution provides the necessary sharpness for large projection screens and is now standard in the Smart Home. For an even deeper immersion, take a look at our selection of home cinema projectors.

White wall or projection screens?

Do I necessarily need a projection screen? Not necessarily, but: although projecting onto a white projection screen is flexible, a projection screen brings out the maximum in image quality, improves contrast and optimises colours. Find out more in our projection screen buying guide.

Connectivity: The most important connections

Despite the integrated Smart functions, physical connections are important. Pay attention to: HDMI, USB connections and, if necessary, LAN, for the most stable network connection.

Projection ratio and placement

The projection ratio plays an important role when it comes to placement in the Smart Home

  • Standard projectors (long throw): Require a greater distance from the projection surface, which means mounting on the ceiling or far away in the room.
  • Ultra-short throw projectors (short throw): Stand directly in front of the wall or on a sideboard. These models offer the best integration into the living room, as cables are elegantly concealed and no light beam runs through the room

Connect soundbar: full flexibility thanks to integrated Bluetooth function

Thanks to the integrated Bluetooth capability, you can connect the Smart Home projector wirelessly to your soundbar or external Bluetooth speakers. This means no extra cable from the projector to the audio system.

All for the Smart Home experience

The right accessories are crucial for the perfect film experience. Perfect your setup with a matching projection screen, wireless soundbars and a popcorn machine for the full cinema experience.
