The benefit toAmazon Prime Dayis that some products that seema little too expensiveat full price get a two-day vacation from that status. In other words, they get a Prime Daydiscount, and one of the top projector discounts we’ve seen in this year’s sale is on LG’s CineBeam Q 4K portable projector.
Right now, theLG CineBeam Q is $896.99 at Amazon. That’s a $400 discount from the normal $1,296.99, bringing LG’s cool, retro-looking projector back to its lowest-ever price. A Prime Day discount is also available in the UK, knocking £136 off the projector’s price. Sure, there are plenty of other portable projectors you can find for cheaper, such asSamsung’s The Freestyle 2nd Gen, but none of those provide the LG’s 4K resolution – something that makes a difference when you blow images up on a big screen.•Shop more Prime Day deals
The LG CineBeam Q is the top portable option in our list of thebest 4K projectors. Much of that has to do with its style – the CineBeam Q is wonderfully compact and clad in an all-metal chassis with a revolving stand that does double duty as a carrying handle. However, with a specified 500 ANSI lumens brightness and an RGB laser DLP light engine, the CineBeam Q not only looks good, but can beam sufficiently bright and strikingly colorful images.

In ourLG CineBeam Q review, we remarked that its picture was “surprisingly good for such a tiny projector, and it can beam images large enough to light up the side of a garage.” With no built-in battery power option, you may want to use the CineBeam Q mostly inside, though its rugged build quality makes it well-suited for travel.
The CineBeam Q uses the same webOS system found on LG’s TVs for streaming, and it’s one of the best smart TV platforms going. Many of thebest streaming servicescan be accessed from here, including Disney Plus, Prime Video, Netflix,AppleTV Plus, andYouTube. With a 3W speaker, the projector’s built-in sound is on the anemic side, but a Bluetooth dual audio output lets you easily pair it with multiple headphones, a wireless speaker, or a soundbar.
In a world of ugly plastic portable projectors, the LG CineBeam Q stands out with its striking design and excellent overall picture quality. You can easily find a portable projector for less, but this Prime Day discount puts our favorite4Kportable within reach.
