Here’s How To Create The Ultimate Cinema Experience At Home With Samsung’s The Premiere

Every year, flat screen televisions get bigger and bigger. And while bigger is always better when it comes to creating an epic viewing experience, there are definitely some practical issues that come with it. No matter how square eyed you may be (or would be given half a chance), most of us would struggle for space if we tried to fit anything over a 75” into our lounge. For everyday viewing, that’s fine – better than fine, in fact – but does it feel incredible? Well, you’ll probably have to grab a ticket for Top Gun 2 and head to your local IMAX if you’re looking for that.

Or at least that would be true, if it wasn’t for Samsung’s The Premiere. Skipping the cumbersome space restraints of a large screen, this state-of-the-art projector is designed to deliver an epic TV-like experience for a fraction of the size. Scrap that – this laser TV is more akin to a cinema than a television set. Anyone who’s into home cinema will appreciate the value of a really big screen for capturing the action, but anyone with eyeballs will see the appeal with The Premiere.

What is a laser TV?

Put simply, it’s a projector instead of a physical TV. But it’s a far cry from the projectors you might have experienced in school. This brilliant ultra-short throw design is engineered to sit right by the wall, allowing you to make the most of your space without worrying about people getting in the way and blocking your view. Grab yourself a blank wall, point and brace yourself for the screen size you never thought you’d ever experience in your own home.

How does The Premiere quality compare to a flat screen TV?

The size capabilities are the biggest difference – it’s sleek and compact in style so you don’t need to carve out a section of your living room in order to enjoy. But best of all, you don’t lose anything by going supersize - the quality is like nothing else. As the world's first HDR10+ certified projector, The Premiere delivers dramatic home cinema viewing that’s just like being in a theatre thanks to a cutting-edge triple laser light source*. Expect incredible contrast, up to 22800 lumens of brightness and breathtaking colours on an up to 130-inch screen, wherever you sit. With the world's first HDR10+ certified projector, every frame is optimised to perfection for a picture as detailed as in real life. There’s also some seriously good sound on offer with 4.2ch sound and Acoustic Beam technology – a must if you want to feel the rumbles and bass like you would in your cinema chair. 

What are the special features of The Premiere? 

Everything you’d normally find as part of a Samsung Smart TV are all available with The Premiere. That means your favourite entertainment – from Netflix, Disney+**, Apple TV, Prime Video, and more – all in one place, at the touch of a button. There’s also Amazon Alexa and Bixby, and you can always mirror the image with your phone. But the real kicker is the FILMMAKER MODE™ - allowing you to watch movies in the way a director would intend for the ultimate cinema experience. 

Is it actually worth it?

Well if the 5 star Currys customer rating is anything to go by, absolutely. But let's not beat around the bush - this is a luxury purchase. This is going to appeal to movie lovers above all else, but it's important to remember that even at £3999 is on par or more affordable than a lot of the 85" screens on the market right now. It takes up a fraction of the space, there's way fewer cables to consider and it's a darn sight nicer than inserting a humungous screen into your carefully curated interiors. It's the way all TVs are going, so beat the crowd now.

Where can I buy Samsung's The Premiere?
