Acer has launched its latest 4K UHD home projector, the Vero HL1820, expanding its eco-focused Vero lineup with a high-performance model aimed at both movie enthusiasts and gamers. The projector features advanced RGB laser technology and promises vivid colors, high brightness, and smooth gameplay.
Acer Vero HL1820 Specifications
The Vero HL1820 delivers a native 4K UHD resolution (3840 x 2160) using a 0.65-inch DMD panel. It uses a pure RGB laser light source with independent red, green, and blue diodes, producing 5,500 RGB laser lumens and 2,000 ANSI lumens. Acer claims it can cover 106% of the BT.2020 color space, while offering a high 3,500,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio. The unit is also rated for 20,000 hours of operation in standard mode and up to 30,000 hours in ECO mode.
The projector supports 1080p at a 240Hz refresh rate with input latency as low as 4.2 ms. This makes it suitable for fast-paced games and responsive gameplay. The HL1820 includes a built-in 15-watt speaker and comes with dual HDMI 2.0 ports (with HDCP 2.2), USB-A power output ports, audio out, DC 12V trigger, and RS232 control support.
The projector comes with a 1.6x optical zoom lens and supports ±30° vertical and horizontal keystone correction along with four-corner image adjustment. It also supports 360-degree projection for flexible placement and orientation. The throw ratio ranges from 1.4 to 2.24, making it capable of projecting a 60-inch image from a distance of 1.86 meters.
The Vero HL1820 is IP6X rated for dust protection and uses a chassis made from 50% post-consumer recycled materials.
