vividstorm s pro p ust alr review b

    Having already used the S PRO P UST ALR motorized screen in previous UST projector reviews means some of you have already seen it in "action". Still, a proper presentation/review on my part was in order and well, it's finally here. The S PRO P is the 7th screen I've used to date (2nd most expensive one as of now) and well, it does great when paired with an UST projector. Colors are vivid, blacks are deep and detail, well, let’s just say it’s better compared to regular throw models. Unfortunately, the lights where I test all screens are not directly above them (rather 2 meters away, again on the ceiling) so when turned on you can't really watch a movie on the S PRO P (which is why I skip showcasing picture quality with the lights on). What really makes such screens stand out however is undoubtedly their motorized function since not only does that save you a considerable amount of space compared to regular screens, but you can have paintings hanged onto a wall and just have the screen rise in front of them without issue. Height adjustment on my sample was manual (instead of the automatic function of the Bluetooth enabled model) but once again that’s not hard to do manually (just open the rubber cover, insert the plastic rod and adjust height according to your needs – automatic function may gain you a couple of cm however). What I really wanted to see is a 150 inch variant (I'd also like to see a speaker enabled model but that's probably easier said than done) but due to the fact that there are still UST projectors out there which can’t (or to be more precise it’s not recommended) go that high it’s a given that most manufacturers will expand their lines once this is no longer the case.


    As I type these lines the 120-inch S PRO P motorized tension floor rising UST ALR perforated projector screen by VIVIDSTORM retails for USD2369 inside the USA (Amazon.com) and for 2299Euros inside the EU (VIVIDSTORM) so it’s not quite what many people would call affordable. Still, it’s certainly worth pointing out that UST projectors pretty much start from that price point and extend to many times that so this clearly isn’t a product made for everyone. Overall, there’s nothing else this screen could provide that it already doesn’t, picture quality is excellent, the motorized function is very convenient, and the range of available accessories is certainly not something you’ll find anywhere else and so the Platinum award is in order.
