ASUS ZenBeam L2 Short throw projector 400 ANSI lumens DLP 1080p (1920x1080) Navy

Product Overview

AI-generated summary

The Asus ZenBeam L2 is one of those “looks simple, does the job if you set it up right” short-throw projectors. For the money (£603 ex-VAT), you’re mostly paying for convenience: it can project a big image from relatively close to the screen/wall, which is handy in meeting rooms where ceiling space or cable runs are annoying. The 1080p and decent brightness will suit typical daytime huddle rooms and slide-heavy presentations—as long as you don’t expect it to behave like a high-end conference projector with perfect results under strong ambient light.

That said, I wouldn’t buy this for anyone who needs long-term, heavy daily use in a bright room, or who’s planning on frequent throw-distance/placement changes. Short-throw means your positioning matters more than you might think, and DLP projectors are usually best when you can keep the environment stable and the usage predictable. If your use case is “weekly meetings, training sessions, occasional demos” and you want something that’s easy to deploy without commissioning, it’s a sensible pick. If your priority is flawless text sharpness across the board, very bright rooms, or boardroom-level reliability over years, I’d look up the next tier options—because that’s where the total cost of ownership tends to get better.
