Excitement turned to instant dismay as soon as I realised it's just another rainbow generator.
The wait continues for affordable native 4k LCOS/SXRD/LCD laser projection.
It will probably be using the same chip as the Benq 2700 & 5700 (The 5700 has all the same lens features as the JVC) however there is no mention of WCG which the Benq’a achieve.
As to price then Acer produced a laser DLP with the larger 0.66 chip for £3500 so it may not be as expensive as you would think. (Just don’t expect the black levels of LCOS)

I saw this projector on display at CEDIA yesterday. It's almost ready for primetime. JVC is just finishing the final firmware for the production run.
If the street price is a bit more reasonable than list, this should be a pretty nice laser light DLP projector. Color, brightness, and black level seemed quite good given the limitations of DLP micro-mirror technology (the best I've seen from a .47 DMD chip so far given the more precise control a laser system can bring to the table). Sharp imagery and nice detail with the 4k HDR source material being played. It does indeed have HDR tone mapping included and is compatible with HDR10 flavors and HLG. The laser engine is expected to last the life of the projector.
There was a living room ultra-short throw, table-top 4k DLP with laser light projector model that looked better than Epson's effort in this field. That's about it for now.OT: Was there anything new from Optoma at Cedia 2019
