Buying decision

Should you buy it?

The EF-72 is a lifestyle laser projector with a flexible adjustable stand, an RGB laser light source and a co-engineered speaker system that's great for music. Its warm, detailed picture is easy to live with. Blacks look grayish, brightness trails 4K rivals, dialogue gets lost at low volume, and there's no Dolby Vision.

Best for

Design-conscious living rooms and casual movie nights.

Not for

Home cinema fans who want deep blacks and HDR punch.

Main strengthBright, rich and colorful image
