Best Projector Screen for Samsung The Premiere LSP9T and LSP7T

Samsung's The Premiere lineup — the LSP9T (triple laser, 4K, 2800 lumens) and LSP7T (single laser, FHD, 2200 lumens) — represents some of the finest consumer UST projection hardware available. They're built to sit in a living room, replace a TV, and look great doing it. But Samsung makes one thing very clear in their documentation: these projectors require a compatible UST screen. Use a regular screen and you'll wonder what you overpaid for.

Why Samsung The Premiere Needs a Special Screen

The Premiere series has an extremely short throw ratio of 0.19:1 — even more extreme than most other UST projectors. To fill a 100" screen, the projector sits just 16–18 cm from the screen surface. At this angle, a matte white screen is simply the wrong optical tool. Standard screens scatter light in all directions; the Fresnel structure of a UST screen redirects that steeply-angled light beam precisely back toward the viewer.

Additionally, Samsung's triple-laser light engine (in the LSP9T) produces extremely accurate colour — but only a screen that controls reflection direction will let that colour fidelity actually reach your eyes in a normal living room.

Best TrueThrow Screens for Samsung The Premiere

1. TrueThrow Fresnel ALR UST Screen — Best Match for LSP9T and LSP7T

TrueThrow's Fresnel ALR is engineered for throw ratios from 0.19:1 to 0.30:1 — a range that covers both The Premiere models precisely. The optical lenticular Fresnel surface delivers uniform brightness (no hot spots), wide enough viewing angle for typical living room seating, and strong ambient light rejection for ceiling-lit rooms. Available in 100", 110", and 120".

2. TrueThrow CBSP Carbon Black UST Screen — Best for Open-Plan Living Rooms

If your space is open-plan — kitchen-living room combos, rooms with skylights, or south-facing windows — the CBSP Carbon Black's deeper ambient light rejection is worth the upgrade. The dark carbon base layer significantly reduces reflected light from above while the Fresnel layer directs the projector's beam cleanly to viewers. The LSP9T's high brightness pairs very well with the CBSP.

3. TrueThrow HBSP Premium UST Screen — Best for 120"+ Sizes

If you're running a large installation (120"–150") and want maximum sharpness and peak brightness at the edges, the HBSP Premium uses a higher-grade optical structure that maintains image fidelity across larger screen areas. Ideal for buyers setting up a dedicated living room cinema with The Premiere LSP9T as the centrepiece.

The One Mistake Most Samsung Premiere Buyers Make

They buy Samsung's own branded screen — the Samsung ALR Screen for The Premiere — without comparing alternatives. Samsung's screen is well-made, but it's priced at a premium and sold in limited sizes. TrueThrow UST screens use equivalent Fresnel optical specifications, ship free, and are available in a wider range of sizes. You don't need to buy Samsung's branded screen accessory to get first-class image quality.

Placement Notes for Samsung The Premiere in

• The LSP9T/LSP7T must sit on furniture (TV stand, console table) positioned flush below the screen — do not place it on the floor or on a raised shelf without adjusting the screen height to match.
• The bottom of the screen should be approximately 30–60 cm from the floor (same height as a typical TV stand display surface).
• Samsung recommends a screen size of 100"–130" for typical living rooms — 110" is the most common install.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use a regular screen with Samsung The Premiere LSP9T?

No. The LSP9T uses a 0.19:1 throw ratio and fires light at an extreme upward angle. A regular matte white or grey screen will scatter that light and produce a dim, uneven image. You need a UST Fresnel ALR screen specifically designed for ultra short throw projection.

Does Samsung The Premiere LSP9T work with all UST screens?

The LSP9T works with any UST screen designed for throw ratios of 0.19:1 to 0.25:1. This includes TrueThrow's full UST lineup: Fresnel ALR, CBSP Carbon Black, HBSP Premium, and PET Crystal BSP. It will not work correctly with standard ALR screens designed for long throw projectors.

What size screen should I buy for Samsung The Premiere LSP9T?

Samsung officially recommends 100"–130". At 0.19:1 throw, the projector fills a 100" screen with the unit placed approximately 18 cm from the screen. Most installations use 100"–120".
