Loewe We Beam
Full HD ALPD laser pico projector by Loewe, compact and fitted with a built-in operating system, for projecting content up to 300 cm diagonal without any external device.
Description
The We. Beam is a laser pico projector designed by Loewe, combining 0.23" DMD technology with an ALPD laser light source. Unlike a conventional projector requiring an external player or media box, this device features its own Linux operating system (os6) on an SL6 chassis, with access to a NetRange app store and a built-in web browser. It therefore operates independently, without any additional equipment being essential to play content.
The Full HD resolution (1920 x 1080 pixels) combined with a brightness of 500 lumens allows projection with an image diagonal ranging from 100 cm to 300 cm. The 1 ms response time limits blur on moving scenes, while HDR10 compatibility and the Rec. 709 colour space aim for accurate colour reproduction. The typical FOFO contrast of 500:1 and a minimum uniformity of 85% place the device in the category of pico projectors intended for occasional or portable use rather than a dedicated cinema room. Automatic focus and keystone correction simplify setup, a valuable feature for a device designed to be moved around regularly.
Weighing 830 g with dimensions of 175 x 48 x 175 mm, the We. Beam is aimed at mobile use: impromptu indoor sessions, outdoor screenings or trips in a van, provided a mains socket or a compatible USB-C external battery can power it. Its Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and Miracast connectivity, combined with the my Loewe App, allows content to be streamed from a smartphone without a cable. The sound level in normal mode, capped at 30 dB at one metre, remains discreet for evening use.

What to check before buying used
In terms of connectivity, the device has one HDMI input compatible with HDCP 1.4 with HDMI-CEC and ARC, as well as two USB ports: a USB-A output (5 V / 1 A) and a USB-C input (20 V / 3.25 A) used for power. The stated lifespan of the laser module in normal mode is around 25,000 hours, a point worth checking when buying a used unit: ask if possible for the number of hours already accumulated, as wear on the light source directly affects brightness over time. It is also advisable to test the automatic focus and keystone correction, as well as the proper functioning of the USB-C and HDMI ports, the mechanical and electronic elements most heavily used on this type of compact device.
