The OBE R3 Ultra Max features a Z-shaped gimbal that allows
the projector to rotate 120 degrees vertically and 360 degrees horizontally.
This enables content to be displayed on the screen from various angles,
including ceiling projection. Speakers are integrated into the projector's
base, and according to the company, the speakers maintain their orientation
even when the projection angle is adjusted.
The projector is equipped with a 5-inch TCL CSOT LCD panel.
It has a native resolution of 1080p while also supporting 4K input. It features
a brightness of 1,800 CVIA lumens and a dynamic contrast ratio of 40,000:1.
This projector can display content on screens ranging from 40 to 150 inches. It

noise is below 26dB.
The R3 Ultra Max is equipped with a 2.1-channel speaker
system. It includes two 10W mid- and high-frequency drivers along with a
dedicated 25W subwoofer. It also features a 1,070cc acoustic chamber. According
to the company, the speaker system supports low-bass frequencies down to 43Hz,
aiming to deliver superior bass compared to the small built-in speakers found
in standard projectors.
The projector is powered by the MediaTek MT9681 processor,
paired with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage. For connectivity, it offers two
HDMI 2.1 ports—one of which supports eARC—along with a USB-A 3.0 port and a

searches and answering general queries.
To set up the screen, the projector is equipped with a ToF
sensor and a CMOS camera. These enable automatic keystone correction, focus
adjustment, and screen alignment. Additionally, the projector can detect
obstacles in front of it and adjust the projection accordingly.
