When it came to buying home theater equipment, I struggled with whether to buy a projector or a TV. However, when I personally experienced the Leica CINE1 laser TV priced at 66,999 yuan, I completely let go of the entanglement. This laser TV from Leica stands out for its high-end brand positioning and expensive **. Although I didn't plan to do a review for everyone at first, because I was thinking, apart from the rich people who live in big flats and big houses, who else can afford such an expensive laser TV?This Leica Cine1 laser TV is indeed a bit prohibitive for the average person. However, from another point of view, whether it is a projector or a TV, the truth that you can get better quality by adding money has always existed. The price of flagship laser TVs of other brands on the market is generally around 10,000 yuan or 20,000 yuan, and Leica has pushed the price so high, I believe many people are curious about how it actually works. Therefore,I decided to bring you this review,Let you have a glimpse of the style of this laser TV。
As Leica's first home theater laser TV, the exterior design of Leica CINE1 makes people feel its high-end texture at first glance. The housing is made of aluminium alloy, similar to many classic Leica cameras, and is almost entirely covered with aluminium except for the interface part, giving it a sturdy and durable feel. The exterior design of Leica CINE1 laser TV is very simple,Except for the power on and off button at the top,There are no other extra physical buttons。 This minimalist design is very much in line with the German aesthetic. The Leica CINE1 laser TV uses an aluminum alloy shell, and the details are also quite exquisite, giving people a high-quality feeling. The design of the remote control is no exception, not only the materials are exquisite, the texture is first-class, and when replacing the battery, you only need to press the button on the back, and the battery compartment will pop out from the bottom and stop in a position that is easy to replace, which is very convenient. The attention to detail of Leica is excellent, and the overall feel is very high-end.
LeicaCine1Laser TV adopts RGB three-color laser technology,Red、Green、Blue three colors are emitted by independent light sources,It has a very good performance in brightness and color。 According to Leica, the Leica CINe1 laser TV uses Leica image optimization technology to show natural colors, rich color gradations and excellent contrast. In addition, Leica has equipped this TV with a Leica Summicron lens, which has a higher optical quality than ordinary lenses, thus presenting a better picture quality for viewers.
The picture quality performance of this laser TV is really outstanding. Especially at a viewing distance of one meter, this huge screen gives the feel of a small cinema, and the brightness of 3000 ANSI lumens makes it possible to have no effect even when the lights are on in the room**. However, when you're closer to the screen, you may notice a gap between the center and the edges, which are a little blurry. This is a common problem with almost all ultra-short throw projectors, and it is not unique to the Leica Cine1.
When it comes to high dynamic range (HDR), the Leica CINe1 laser TV also performs well. It supports HDR10 and HLG, two mainstream HDR formats, and has Highlight Enhancement technology, which can improve the brightness and contrast of the picture, presenting more realistic and delicate picture details. Whether it's a movie, watching a series or playing a game, you can enjoy a more shocking and realistic picture performance.
The Leica Cine1 laser TV is equipped with 4 built-in multi-directional sound field audio drivers, which can sound in 360 degrees surround sound for superior sound quality. This laser TV also uses HDMIEARC interface,It can be directly connected to a sound device that supports DolbyATMOS audio decoding,Achieve a more realistic surround sound effect。 Whether it's a movie, listening, or playing a game, you'll be able to get a more immersive sound experience. at the same time,Limited by the size of the screen,The low-frequency effect of this TV is relatively weak,If you pursue a more powerful bass effect,It is recommended to use it with external speakers or speakers。
The Leica Cine1 laser TV has a built-in Android TV operating system and is highly customizable for the HomeTheater environment. It supports a variety of common ** and audio formats, including HDR10, DolbyVision, DolbyATMOS, etc., as well as streaming ** services and applications such as Netflix, YouTube, Tencent**, etc. At the same time, this TV also supports voice control, which can control TVs and other smart home devices by using voice assistants such as GoogleAssistant.
The Leica Cine1 laser TV stands out for its high-end quality and expensive **. Although the ** of this laser TV is a bit high for the average consumer,But from another point of view,The truth that you can get better quality by adding money always exists。 Whether it's the exterior design, image quality performance, sound experience or intelligent system, the Leica CINe1 shows excellent performance. If you're looking for the ultimate home theater experience and you're willing to pay a hefty price for it, then the Leica Cine1 laser TV is undoubtedly a good choice. But if you are sensitive to**, and at the same time do not have high requirements for picture size and picture quality, then other brands of laser TVs or projectors may be more suitable for you.
