With the rapid development of the social economy, 60-70-inch large-screen LCD TVs have become almost standard in every household. However, many users are still not fully satisfied. They wish for even larger screens, but traditional LCD TVs come with physical limitations. Moreover, large-screen models over 100 inches are extremely expensive, often costing tens of thousands of yuan, which is out of reach for most consumers. So, is there a more suitable big-screen option for home users? Yes, the Nut S1 we're about to review is an ultra-short-throw laser TV that can project a 100-inch screen from just 30 centimeters away. What's more, it's much more affordable than high-end LCD TVs that cost over 100,000 yuan. Priced around 20,000 yuan, it’s an excellent choice for average home users. Let’s take a closer look.
Compared to traditional lamp-based projectors, laser light sources offer better color performance and longer lifespan. A typical projector lamp lasts only a few thousand hours, while the laser light source in the Nut S1 can last up to 10,000 or even tens of thousands of hours. Over time, lamp projectors may experience color fading, but the Nut S1 maintains stable performance and avoids such issues.
The image above shows the objective test results of the Nut S1 laser TV. If you're short on time, this can give you a quick overview. However, objective data alone isn't enough. I recommend reading the full review to get a comprehensive understanding before making a decision.
The Nut S1 has a unique and modern design. Nut products are always known for their distinctive looks, and the S1 is no exception. Inspired by the Chinese cultural "Pisces" shape, the curved body and vibrant gray color make it a perfect blend of tradition and modern technology.

The Nut S1 has a row of interfaces at the back, spaced reasonably for connecting multiple devices. It also features symmetric stereo speakers, delivering wide sound fields and a theater-like audio experience. However, there's no on-body control interface, so all operations must be done via the remote, which might be slightly inconvenient but enhances the device’s aesthetic appeal.

According to our measurements, the Nut S1 consumes 164.6W of power, which is acceptable for a home appliance. Compared to similar products, its power consumption is relatively low, making it an eco-friendly choice. Additionally, the noise level during operation is only 56.6 dB, ensuring a quiet and comfortable viewing experience.
**Brightness and Contrast Performance**
We used the ANSI standard developed by the American National Standards Association for testing. This industry-recognized standard evaluates maximum brightness, peak brightness, optimized brightness, and projector contrast. Here’s a brief explanation of some key terms:
- **Peak Brightness**: The highest brightness achieved at a single point, usually in the center.
- **ANSI Brightness**: The average brightness across nine test points where the projector can distinguish eight gray scales.
- **Maximum Brightness**: The average brightness in the brightest mode, higher than the reference value.
Eight gray levels and 13 illumination test points
Two different contrast test methods
**Data Analysis:** - **Brightness**: The Nut S1 has an ANSI brightness of 1825 lumens, which is sufficient for daily use. Its peak brightness reached 2105 lumens, but only 70.16% of the nominal value. - **Contrast**: The ANSI contrast ratio is 109:1, meeting good standards, while the FOFO contrast ratio is 1423:1. While not outstanding, it still performs well. **Color Reproduction is Generally Dark** The color reproduction of the Nut S1 is normal, but the colors tend to be slightly pale and the overall image appears darker. However, the clarity and focus remain good, making it suitable for general home use. **Rich Built-in Resources and Smart Experience** The Nut S1 is equipped with a smart system that offers a clean and intuitive interface, easy to use without needing much learning time. With 2GB of memory, it ensures smooth performance without lag. The built-in content library includes a wide variety of movies and games, making it ideal for entertainment.Nut Intelligence System
