Perfect Projector for VJs
By Jack on Reviewed in the United States on November 20, 2018
After doing a whole lot of research on different projectors in the $500 - $1000 range, I am very happy to have landed on this one. As there are many review on watching movies and shows at home, my review will be about using this for projection visuals / mapping. This projector is perfect for small to medium indoor venues for projection visuals. For this performance I had the projector around 25' away from the stage, casting a bright and crisp projection on a 16' large screen made of 2 - 8' x 8' screens. Very simple projector to use, very lightweight and very quiet. I was honestly amazed for how bright and how vibrant the colors are for such a light and relatively inexpensive projector. I was skeptical about the 3200 lumens being enough for what I needed it for, but after the other night I am more than happy with the performance of this projector. With 1080p resolution and a 25k contrast ratio, it really can't be beat for the price. Comes with an ergonomic remote with buttons that lights up BRIGHT -- great to have. With tech moving so fast, skip on trying to spend another $500 on a projector that will be obsolete in 3 years anyway.As far as longevity I cannot say much, but I got the warranty just in case. I have used about 10hrs now and no problems yet. To not get the $20 warranty on this projector - or any equipment like this would be a dumb move anyway. Highly recommend this projector to anyone looking for an affordable, bright, and color-accurate projector!

Dark screen in two months of use!! It does not last more than a year!!
By Andre Macedo Vale on Reviewed in the United States on June 14, 2019
Dear John Morris, The same issue happened to me. I bought this unit from amazon on September 25th 2017 and ship to my friend in NY. As I live in Brazil, I brought this with me. The Projector is outstanding in image quality and brightness. But, as early as in December 2017 it started to have problemas to start up. The lamp came on, but the image was dark, i.e.: no image at all. This was happening occasionally, not all the time. As I have brought this thing to Brazil I tryed to find a authorized custom service here. And I found Resultec (resultec@resultec.com.br), that was useless, since the warranty was not valid if the product was bought overseas. Then I kept using the product, it was working alright until... guess what? On December 2018, only two months after the warranty expired the projector shutted off forever!!! I sent this to my friend in NY to see if we could have this fixed by optoma, detail only in California ; ( . I found that the price to ship to them and see what the problem is, I have to spend 125 dollars + the projector parts. The demaged part seemed to be the motherboard, which is around $350. That means that I have to spend around 500 dollars to fix a projector that costs the same price, I am so upset with Optoma product that I would never recommend this to anyone. Everyone should buy another brand, even with less quality, but that will work for at least 3 years... Cheers, andre
