Epson Introduces New Laser Display Lineup

The new BrightLink and PowerLite ultra-short-throw solutions deliver large images from mere inches away and up to 5,000 lumens (800E-Series) and 4,200 lumens (700E-Series) of color and white brightness, the company says.

Epson announces ten new PowerLite and BrightLink projectors, offering Full HD and 4K enhancement across standard-throw, ultra-short-throw, and portable options. Built on Epson's proprietary three-chip 3LCD technology, the new lineup is billed as delivering higher resolution and brightness with larger image sizes, enhanced connectivity, intuitive software, updated controls, and improved casting to simplify installation and maintenance while enabling seamless collaboration and immersive, larger-than-life visuals in everyday spaces.

With significant investment in simplifying integration and fleet management across vertical markets, the new lineup includes both interactive and non-interactive models, all under 20lb. Featuring an extensive range of brightness levels under 6,000 lumens as well as throw distances, connectivity options, and installation tools at multiple price points, the expanded portfolio aims to underscore Epson's commitment to making advanced display technology accessible for all.

The new BrightLink and PowerLite ultra-short-throw solutions deliver large images from mere inches away and up to 5,000 lumens (800E-Series) and 4,200 lumens (700E-Series) of color and white brightness for clear visibility in well-lit classrooms, meeting rooms, and immersive environments, the company says.

The BrightLink 870Ei and 780Ei ultra-short-throw interactive displays with 4K enhancement technology are said to offer bold, vibrant images up to 130"-three times larger than a 75" flat panel. It is designed for classroom usage.

The PowerLite 870E, 875E, and 780E ultra-short-throw projectors with 4K enhancement are engineered for exceptional color fidelity, versatile installation, and long-term performance. Billed as producing vivid color and bright images up to 180" -- five times larger than a 75" flat panel -- they support 16:9, 16:6, and 21:9 aspect ratios. Plus, scalable image sizes, 360-degree installation, edge blending, and split-screen capabilities enable immersive, large-format display options. Deployment and maintenance are also simple with over-the-air updates, NFC configuration, and Epson Projector Management software.

The PowerLite L370EG and L370E offer 4K enhancement, and the PowerLite L270F and L320FG deliver Full HD in standard throw formats. The PowerLite L320SF rounds up the lineup, offering Full HD in a short-throw form factor. With up to 5,200 lumens of equal color and white brightness, the projectors produce large, vibrant images up to nearly 500", the company says. Supporting multiple aspect ratios, including ultra-wide 16:6, along with split-screen viewing, the projectors bring collaboration through built-in wireless connectivity, screen mirroring via Miracast, and convenient content sharing with moderator control. A solid-state laser light source delivers up to 30,000 hours of virtually maintenance-free performance, and installation is simplified with 1.6x optical zoom, horizontal/vertical keystone correction, and Quick Corner adjustment. The projectors also include two HDMI inputs for easy source switching, a built-in 16W speaker with audio out, and Epson Projector Management software.

The wall-mounted, classroom-ready Connection and Control Pad AV control box simplifies projector control and connectivity. Offered in two configurations -- an HDBaseT version bundled with the new BrightLink 870Ei and optional to purchase with the new PowerLite 870E and 875E; and a non-HDBaseT version available for purchase with the new BrightLink 780Ei and PowerLite 780E. Both versions of the new control box are now available to support a range of current PowerLite and BrightLink models, pending HDBaseT compatibility. Plus, with USB-C, multiple HDMI inputs, and split-screen projection,10 end users can move smoothly between devices and content.

Epson Classroom Connect Software is a collaborative wireless display solution designed to help teachers manage and share content easily in classrooms. Built for education, it enables students and teachers to connect and cast wirelessly from PCs, Macs, Chromebooks, and iOS devices. With support for up to 50 connected devices and a built-in moderator function, teachers stay in control while displaying content from up to four devices at once. When used with select BrightLink interactive projectors, Classroom Connect allows teachers to annotate displayed content and wirelessly save files locally or to cloud storage, including OneDrive and Google Drive, for easy access from virtually anywhere.

The PowerLite L270F, 780E, 870E, 875E, and BrightLink 780Ei will be available in summer 2026. The PowerLite L370EG, L320FG, L320SF, and BrightLink 870Ei will be available in fall 2026. The PowerLite L370E will be available in late 2026. All models will be available for purchase through authorized resellers.
