Samsung had unveiled The Premiere, its new lineup of 4K Ultra Short Throw laser projectors, last month. After unveiling the US pricing and availability of the projectors last week, the South Korean firm has launched them today in South Korea. The LSP9T is priced at KRW 7.49 million (around $6,430) and the LSP7T will be sold for KRW 4.49 million (around $3,860).
The Premier will be available through stores, including Samsung Digital Plaza, across South Korea from today. It will also be available online exclusively through Naver from October 5 to October 11, following which it will be purchased through various popular online stores in the country. The company will also offer benefits such as matching screens, discounts on furniture upholstery, and a six-month subscription to video services so that buyers can have a complete home cinema experience.
