SEOUL, May 6 (Korea Bizwire) – The monthly sales of the MiniBeam TV series, LED projectors introduced by LG Electronics targeting campers and single-person households, increased more than 50 percent to 5,000 units in May, with one sold every 10 minutes.
The MiniBeam projectors embedded with TV tuners enable users to watch TV anywhere using an exterior antenna. The lifespan of the LED illumination system is estimated at 30,000 hours, which means that viewers could theoretically enjoy their Minibeam projectors 8 hours-a-day for over ten years without having to replace the three light units.
In March, Korea’s second largest electronics giant released two MiniBeam projector models, the MiniBeam Pro with full-HD definition and Bluetooth connectivity and the MiniBeam TV, an on-the-go TV solution with high portability.
LG Minibeam projectors are remarkably lightweight and offer greater portability than conventional projectors. Both projectors easily fit in a backpack or tote and take seconds to set up. Their wireless connectivity allows easy content mirroring from a smartphone, tablet PC or laptop.
