Let’s be honest: the vast majority of projectors are ugly, clunky boxes that scream compromise. The Samsung Premiere 5 isn’t one of them. It’s clean, sculptural, and quietly brilliant. A nice bit of tech that belongs in your space, not hidden in it. The Premiere 5 is not just about watching movies, it’s owning a smart, sexy object that adapts to your life. From work to workouts, desk time to downtime, this is a projector that actually gets you.
What do we mean? Ok, the basics. This puppy gives you up to 100 inches of Full HD brilliance from just inches away from the wall. No ceiling mounts, no tangled mess, no drama. Colours pop, blacks hold up in ambient light, and the 30W speakers more than hold their own. Sound is rich, spatial, and warm enough to carry a dinner party without needing external kit. Whether you’re watching Clueless for the 500th time on a rainy night or joining a morning yoga class on Apple TV+ the size of your wall, it delivers.
But here’s where it gets interesting. The Premiere 5 doesn’t just sit there, it can move with you. Tilt it up for vertical projections that feel more installation art than AV setup. Lay it flat for floor-based workouts or ambient visuals. Stand it on your desk for an extra screen during your 9 to 5, or take it with you to a shoot, a showroom, or a meeting and project directly onto any clean surface. The Premiere morphs based on the vibe, the function, and the moment. One unit, endless setups, but no remote battles or recalibration nightmares. The Premiere 5 challenges every assumption about what projectors are supposed to be.Â
Samsung’s ShartThings integration means it can become the control hub of your home. Adjust your lighting, check your doorbell cam, cue up a playlist, or start your dishwasher, all from the projector. It’s voice-activated, touch-interactive, and runs Samsung’s slick Tizen OS, so your favourite streaming platforms are all there from the start. No dongles, no drama.
The design language is minimal, but the impact isn’t. Whether it’s placed on a low table, shelf, or workstation, it looks deliberate, like it was designed to be seen, not tolerated. It’s the best designed tech that draws the eye without shouting for attention. A quiet confidence.
For creatives, it’s a portable studio. For hosts, it’s an ambient centrepiece. For professionals, it’s a reliable presentation tool. The world is your oyster. For everyone else, it’s just a really, really good projector with killer sound and zero attitude. Think of it as less ‘home cinema’ and more ‘cinema as home accessory’.
Because if you’re going to watch Jonathan Bailey sweat, it might as well be in 100 inches of rich, vivid, sculpted detail. Right?
