Epson has just shown that a home projector doesn't have to look like a grey, office lump. The Lifestudio Flex Special Lux Edition EF-73 model is a higher level of sophistication compared to the popular and currently available in stores model EF-72. This time, the engineers (and probably interior designers) have taken it a step further, creating a device that is meant to be the command centre of your bedroom.
Great design + 4K laser
This is not just another product made of cheap plastic. Epson has opted for materials that are more often found in luxury cars than in consumer electronics. The EF-73 casing features tempered glass, suede finishes, and anodised gold accents. According to official press information from Epson, the device in "Night Black" is intended to be aesthetically pleasing enough that it doesn’t need to be hidden away in a cupboard after a screening. Instead, it’s meant to proudly stand by the bed, serving the role of... a designer bedside lamp, thanks to the built-in ambient lighting.
Qi, Bose and Google TV – bedroom powerhouse
What really sets the EF-73 apart from the base EF-72? Apart from its appearance, the key is the "2 in 1" functionality. The top panel of the projector features a built-in Qi wireless charger, so by placing your phone on the projector before bed, you'll have a full battery by morning. In terms of picture quality, we get 4K with a 3LCD laser engine (up to 150 inches), and a 10-watt speaker system takes care of the audio experience. It's all powered by Google TV, meaning you've got everything from Netflix to YouTube at your fingertips.

It's also worth mentioning the new application Projection Studio, which will debut alongside the projector. It will allow for collaborative, interactive creation of photo shows with a musical background straight from your phone. The equipment is set to hit the shelves in April 2026. The price remains a mystery, but since the standard EF-72 costs around $1300 (which translates to about 5000zł), the "Lux" version will certainly require a deeper wallet.
