No HBO Max on LG HU810PW-EU Laser CineBeam?


Recommended Posts

I bought the LG HU810PW european version projector back in October '21. The projector comes with webOS 3.0, but in the website is advertised with webOS 5.0. I tried to manually update webOS, but it says there are no updates availables. HBO Max it's not available with webOS 3.0. Anyone knows what's going on? Can I really update to webOS 5.0 or download HBO Max somehow? Thanks in advance.

Saddly, not. Since we bought the projector back in October 2021, webOS 3 has not been updated (hello LG??) and the apps store does not include HBO Max. This is not acceptable coming from a 3000$ projector from a brand like LG. At the end, we ended buying an Apple TV 4K, a much better (but pricey) experience.

      In the specifications of this LaserTV it is shown that WebOS 6.0 should be installed on this device.
      The latest Device Firmware Version is 3.01.02 and i am missing the RTL+ App (Germany) which should be available with WebOS 6.0 
      So any info when there will be a "real" WebOS 6.0 available on the Cinebeam HU915EQE?
