Hisense PX3-Pro (2024) — Ultra-Short-Throw Laser Cinema Projector
Hisense PX3-Pro (2024) — Ultra-Short-Throw Laser Cinema Projector
Overview
The Hisense PX3-Pro is the seventh-generation UST projector from Hisense and the flagship of its 2024 laser lineup, replacing the PX2-Pro. It’s built as a “Laser Cinema” projector — the same core technology as Hisense’s bundled Laser TVs, but sold without a matching screen so buyers can pick their own.

Why It Mattered
The PX3-Pro was one of the first Hisense projectors to combine Dolby Vision and HDR10+ support with IMAX Enhanced certification — a first for the brand. It went on to win the TWICE Best of Show award at CEDIA 2024 and a What Hi-Fi? Award, cementing Hisense’s UST lineup as a serious value alternative to big-screen TVs.
Who Should Buy It
Buyers who want a big-screen (100″+) home theater experience without dedicating a room to light control, and who value color accuracy and HDR format support over raw brightness.
Pros & Cons
Pros: Strong color volume, IMAX Enhanced certification, competitive price for a triple-laser UST, Google TV built in.
Cons: 3,000 native contrast trails some 2024/2025 rivals; best picture quality still requires a dedicated ALR screen.
