Amazon is now offering the Optoma UHD55 4K Smart Home Theater Projector for $1,199 shipped. Normally going for $1,790, this 33% discount, or solid $591 price drop marks a new all-time low price we’ve tracked for this projector, even beating out Black Friday pricing. This true 4K projector will cast a screen with 3,600 lumens which is enough to even see clearly during the day. You will also be able to enjoy HDR content with its support for HDR10 and HLG playback. Further enhancing this Optoma projector is the Alexa and Assistant support so you can integrate the UHD55 into your smart home system with the built-in media player supporting file playback via a USB drive. Gamers will benefit here as well with support for projecting at 1080p240Hz for low latency gaming. In terms of connectivity, you’re looking at two HDMI 2.0 inputs around the back.

Mounting is one of the most important parts of any home theater setup. Make sure your new projector is set up properly with the VIVO Universal Extending Ceiling Projector Mount for $24. This mount is fully adjustable which will allow it to tilt and swivel by 15 degrees with 360 degrees of rotation being possible. There is even a telescoping height adjustment system that will distance the projector between 15 and 23 inches from the ceiling. Installation is easy with the quick-release hooks that “attach and detach by tightening and loosening mounting bolts.”
