Picture character and room suitability
PT1 focuses on wide-gamut TriChroma colour and broad HDR format support. Its 80–150-inch range gives more freedom when a larger image is a priority. LS670’s 3LCD system is specified at 3,600 lumens for both colour and white brightness and avoids the rainbow effect that some viewers notice with single-chip DLP projectors.
Smart features and everyday use
PT1 uses Hisense VIDAA U9, while LS670 includes Google TV. Both cover mainstream streaming, but app preferences and phone ecosystems can influence which interface feels more natural. Integrated sound is sufficient for everyday viewing; a separate audio system is recommended for a full cinema experience.
Screen and cabinet planning
Choose the projector only after checking wall width, screen height and furniture depth. PT1 and LS670 have different throw ratios and chassis dimensions, so the same cabinet position will not produce the same image geometry. A compatible ALR screen is strongly recommended for daytime living-room use.
