- Four new 3LCD projectors for images of up to 300 inches
- Two home film models and two professionals
- One of each comes with AirPlay on board
Epson has launched four new projectors, and two of them will be of particular interest to Apple users. This is because for the first time, Epson is delivering airplay compatibility for buyers of retail film projectors, something that has been available in the LG cinebeam range for some time.
The four projectors are all 3LCD models of 3 chips and are divided into two products: home film projectors and professional projectors. AirPlay models also support Miracast.
The home film projectors are the Home Cinema 1100, which has AirPlay, and Home Cinema 980, which has not done so.
Pro models are the pro ex9270 wireless projector, which is the AirPlay model, and the former3290, which is not.
