celexon CLR HomeCinema Plus UST projection screen

The celexon CLR HomeCinema Plus UST electric floor projection screen has come out on top in the laser TV projection screens category. The screen is the perfect alternative to a traditional television. Instead of permanently blocking a wall, the screen simply retracts into its housing when not in use.

The centrepiece of the practical test is the newly developed ‘micron scale black grid’ CLR high-contrast screen fabric. Thanks to a special light grid structure , it delivers an image that is up to 20 per cent brighter and absorbs distracting ceiling light by up to 90 per cent. The result is a striking ‘OLED effect’ with deep blacks in brightly lit living rooms. Thanks to the 170-degree viewing angle stability, you can enjoy a flawless 4K or 8K picture without any loss of quality.
