HiSense Launches New Laser Projector Family in Malaysia

HiSense, a Chinese multinational electronics manufacturer, introduced its latest family of laser projectors in Malaysia on March 15, 2026. The lineup includes three models—the Laser Cinema L9H, L5H, and L3H—designed for home theater enthusiasts seeking ultra-short-throw projection with long-lasting laser light sources. These projectors replace traditional lamp-based units, offering up to 25,000 hours of operation without bulb replacement, and deliver 4K resolution with HDR10+ and Dolby Vision support.

Key Facts

What Are the Key Features of HiSense’s New Laser Projectors?

The HiSense Laser Cinema family uses a blue laser phosphor light source combined with a 4K DLP chip to produce bright, color-accurate images. All three models support HDR10+, Dolby Vision, and HLG, and feature an ultra-short-throw ratio of 0.22:1, allowing placement just inches from the wall. The L9H flagship model delivers 3,000 ANSI lumens and a 40W built-in sound system.

According to HiSense Malaysia’s product manager, “The new Laser Cinema series redefines home entertainment by combining cinema-grade picture quality with a lifespan that outlasts traditional projectors by more than three times.”

HiSense’s Laser Cinema L9H achieves 3,000 ANSI lumens and a 1,500,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio, making it suitable for rooms with ambient light.

How Does the Laser Technology Work?

HiSense’s laser projectors use a blue laser diode that excites a phosphor wheel to produce red, green, and blue light. This method eliminates the need for a replaceable lamp, reduces heat output, and maintains consistent brightness over 25,000 hours of use. The laser light source also enables a wider color gamut, covering 100% of the DCI-P3 color space.

The ultra-short-throw design projects a 100-inch image from a distance of 18.5 cm (7.3 inches) from the wall, minimizing shadow interference and allowing tabletop placement. The VIDAA U6.0 smart platform provides access to streaming apps like Netflix, YouTube, and Disney+.

HiSense’s laser projectors cover 100% of the DCI-P3 color gamut, exceeding the Rec.709 standard used by most lamp-based projectors.

What Is the Price and Availability in Malaysia?

The HiSense Laser Cinema L9H is priced at RM 9,999, the L5H at RM 6,999, and the L3H at RM 4,999. All models are available for purchase starting March 15, 2026, through HiSense’s official online store, Shopee, Lazada, and authorized electronics retailers across Malaysia. Early buyers receive a free 100-inch ALR (ambient light rejecting) screen valued at RM 1,299.

HiSense also offers a three-year warranty on the projector and a five-year warranty on the laser light source. Financing options through Maybank and CIMB allow monthly installments starting from RM 167 for the L3H model.

The entry-level HiSense Laser Cinema L3H is priced at RM 4,999, making it the most affordable 4K laser projector in Malaysia as of March 2026.

Who Is This For?

The HiSense Laser Cinema family targets home theater enthusiasts, gamers, and professionals who want a large-screen experience without the space constraints of a traditional projector. The ultra-short-throw design suits apartments and living rooms where ceiling mounting is impractical. The built-in smart platform and low input lag (15ms in game mode) also appeal to console gamers.

Compared to lamp-based projectors, the laser models offer lower total cost of ownership over five years due to zero lamp replacements. A typical lamp projector requires a new bulb every 4,000–6,000 hours at RM 500–800 each, while the HiSense laser source lasts 25,000 hours without additional cost.

Over a five-year period, a HiSense laser projector saves an estimated RM 2,000–3,200 in lamp replacement costs compared to a traditional lamp-based 4K projector.

Common Questions

What is the lifespan of the laser light source?

Do these projectors support 3D content?

No, the HiSense Laser Cinema L9H, L5H, and L3H do not support 3D playback. The focus is on 4K HDR and gaming performance, with no 3D glasses or frame-sequential mode included.

Are they compatible with streaming devices like Apple TV or Chromecast?
