NothingProjector's new matte white screens - worth the upgrade from a bare wall?

I just read the piece on NothingProjector’s new Matte White screens, and it got me thinking about something I’ve been half-ignoring in my own setup. I’ve got a UST on a painted wall right now, and yeah, the article’s point about paint texture and color cast rings true. I’ve been telling myself it’s “fine,” but I know I’m leaving brightness on the table.

What caught my attention is that both the motorized floor rising screen and the fixed frame screen claim compatibility with long-throw, short-throw, and UST projectors. That’s handy if you’re not locked into one type. The motorized option sounds practical for a living room – retracts when not in use, so you don’t have a permanent white slab staring at you. The fixed frame seems more for dedicated rooms, and they mention HDR10+ support on that one.

No word on specific gain numbers or exact price points in the article, so I’m not sure how they compare to other screens in that bracket. They say it’s aimed at a more accessible price than the usual high-end custom-install stuff, but I’d want to see how flat the surface really is and whether the motorized version has any tensioning issues over time. Anyone here had experience with NothingProjector’s earlier screen offerings, or seen these new ones in person?

Gain numbers are meaningless if they don't clarify the viewing cone. A high-gain screen can make hot-spotting worse with a UST if you're off-axis.
