If like us, you too spend an unhealthy amount of time thinking about how your watchlist is swelling up, consider yourself target audience for this projector.

It may not look like much of a projector, what with a missing lens barrel and a speaker grille that's larger than most soundbars.

But, this is the new order of ultra short-throw projectors, a species that aims to topple the TV as the apex predator of your grey cells.

Optoma isn't new to this category really and the Cinemax D2 is an iteration of the dearer P2. While they all maintain the family look, which has become ubiquitous for ultra short-throw laser projectors, the Cinemax D2 looks clean and classy. The no-nonsense matte black finish helps it remain discreet, so if you want to fool your friends into thinking you've just bought a giant TV, you might just be able to pull it off. In fact, some brands sell this screen+UST projector duo as a laser TV!
