Bought for Home Theater
By Peter Gabriel on Reviewed in the United States on March 7, 2024
This is sold as a conference, large room projector, that should be super bright. For the price tag, I rolled the dice and replaced my original Optoma Dlp/bulb home Theater projector and hoped for the best. Excellent decision for me. There may be some Home Theater idealists that would challenge the color rendering, but it super, again for the price point. Pros: Laser, Quiet, Doesn't get hot, SUPER bright, I watched 2001: A Space Odyssey in the middle of the day... it was perfect. Lots of tweakable settings: Manual AND digital zoom, digital keystone correction, pre settings: Living Room, Cinema, Presentation, etc. Cons: no lens shift, go to projector central and use the "Throw Distance Calculator", it's designed to be stationary once in place, the power cord, is a "Laptop" style, wall plug goes into power brick, power brick proprietary cable connection to projector. The Cons would never stop me from purchasing again, I can detect no coloring problems in the renderings, I am running a 25' hdmi cable, no jumping or dropped frames. Excellent entry level home theater projector.

Good but expected to be amazed
By Nicole B. on Reviewed in the United States on July 24, 2024
I had high expectations for this projector based off the specs, the reviews and was disappointed. Does it have a nice picture? Yes. Is it bright, Yes and the contrast ratio is also very nice. My problem was I purchased it to replace a Cannon Projector that is 12-14 years old so I expected to be amazed and before removing the old projector and using the same screen tested new and old. The new one was a little clearer but sensitive with the manual focus, a little brighter but not enough to make it a good upgrade. The same fluorescent lights that washed out the old one also washed out the new one. The old one did not have a built in speaker and the new one does but it has the sound quality of modern cell phone speaker and IMO not practical in a larger room. With all that being said, if you never had a projector and this is your first one you will probably like it.
