In this video, we will be doing a comparison of Laser Projectors vs Lamp Projectors.

Starting with image quality, laser projectors are widely regarded as superior in this area with higher native contrast ratios that produce deep blacks and vibrant colours. Their light source remains constant over time, meaning no luminance degradation as the projector ages. Lasers enable intricate colour calibration and wider colour gamut. lamp projectors can suffer from progressive dimming over their lifespan and lamp-to-lamp colour variance. However, modern lamps have improved greatly in colour accuracy and consistency.
In terms of lifespan, laser projectors are virtually unlimited, only constrained by the lifespan of the laser modules and electronics. Typical lamp lifespans range from 2,000 to 5,000 hours before requiring replacement. Lasers therefore provide exceptional longevity, whereas lamps force periodic costs and maintenance.
Laser projectors also win in noise output due to their solid-state light generation and lack of high-speed spinning components required by lamp projectors. Their noise levels are remarkably lower, making them better choices for home theatres.

Lamp projectors have traditionally used high-pressure mercury lamps as their light source. This proven technology offers high brightness at an affordable price point. Lamp life is usually around 3,000 to 5,000 hours.
The downside is that lamp performance degrades over time. Image brightness and colour accuracy slowly reduces as the lamp ages. And inevitable lamp failure will require periodic replacement at significant cost.
Laser projectors utilize laser-phosphor or pure laser modules as illumination. Lasers offer 30,000 to 50,000 hours of operation without any decrease in brightness. So you enjoy consistent peak performance throughout the laser projector's lifespan.
Laser projectors also provide a wider colour gamut than lamp projectors. The expanded Rec.2020 colour space allows for more vivid, true-to-life images. Greater colour accuracy is especially beneficial for HDR content playback.
Lamp projectors can suffer from a "rainbow effect" on fast moving images. Their colour wheel cycling can make objects seem to have momentary red/green/blue shadows. Laser projectors do not use colour wheels, eliminating any rainbow artifacts.
While lamp projectors still dominate the mainstream market, laser projectors have become very popular for high-end home theatre use.
Brands like Sony, JVC, Hisense, and Optoma offer 4K laser projector models with brightness up to 5,000 lumens. Prices range from 40,000 INR to over 300,000 INR.
The Epson EH-LS500 is an excellent entry level Full HD laser projector priced under 75,000 INR. It produces sharp 1080p images up to 150 inches from just inches away, making it perfect for dedicated home theatres.
For smaller spaces, compact LED projectors like the ViewSonic M1 provide decent brightness in a portable form factor. Using LED instead of lasers or lamps, they offer lamp-free operation with 20,000 hours lifespan.

To summarize, both lamp and laser projectors have their own sets of advantages and limitations:
- Lamp projectors - Lower cost, mature technology but lamp replacement needed.
- Laser projectors - Brilliant performance, minimal maintenance but premium pricing.
For large, dedicated home theatres where you want the best image quality and minimal upkeep, laser projectors are highly recommended.
For more casual use or portable applications, lamp projectors provide good value with cheaper initial cost. Evaluate your situation, usage, and budget to decide between laser vs lamp illumination.
