I researched a long time before buying this projector, but it was worth it because this is a great projector. The two key elements for me were the lumens and the resolution. The 2800 lumens is bright enough to project clearly in a lit room. I don’t think there is much difference between 2800 and 3000 lumens, but there is a big difference between 2800 and the ones in the lower range that require a dark room for projection.The other key element was the resolution. I read many reviews that talked about how the 800x600 resolution was not sharp enough, so I paid a little bit more and got this projector with the XGA (1024x768) resolution. It projects a sharp picture which is good enough to read Powerpoint briefings with regular size print. I am impressed with it so far.Another factor I looked at is replacement bulbs. This has economy bulbs for less than $40 or premium for around $90. .
This unit was purchased to use in outreach programs at widely varying venues and room conditions. It is also used by people unfamiliar with setting up and using projectors. It was worked out beautifully for us. We plan to buy another one now.Using HDMI connections we are able to move seamlessly between MAC and Windows computers eliminating the need for adapters. That simple connection also means it is extremely simple to set up for our inexperienced people. The built-in speakers are adequate for all but the largest rooms so far. Sound quality is not theater quality, but does have enough clarity and volume.There is a significant price difference between the XGA and WXGA. In my testing I couldn’t detect that much difference. The XGA has worked well for our Powerpoint presentations featuring photos.2800 lumens translates into a bright image in most situations. The lens system produces a sharp image. The keystone correction option is pretty amazing providing side to side as well as up and down adjustments to fix keystoning. Controls are easy to learn and use. I like the fact that the screen can be darkened from the remote control.One limitation for me is that filling a wall with an image requires the projector to be located well back in the room. The zoom and lens combination doesn’t allow that short throw. That is a minor issue for most of us.Time will tell if we get 10,000 hours out of the lamp. It shouldn’t be a problem since they are relatively inexpensive to replace.In summary, this is a lightweight, bright and easy to use projector at a reasonable price.
Setup is easy right out of the box. The picture quality is fantastic, the colors are rich and brighter then I thought it would be. I have this setup in my 3 car garage to watch sports games, even with the double garage door open it barely effects the picture quality. The sound out of that little speaker is amazing as well. There are also plenty of ways to hook it up to anything via HDMI, RCA, VGA. For the price you can’t go wrong with this projector, I might even buy another one. Of course the picture from my IPad dose not look the same as if you were here. You will have to buy one yourself to find out.
I LOVE this projector! I’ve used it for various lessons and workshop presentations in small and large spaces. The picture is bright and the clarity is great. A colleague of mine uses a bigger, bulkier Epson model (which I’ve also used on numerous occasions before purchasing this one), and I find that this smaller, lighter model does the job just as well, but is more portable for travel.
It is definitely worth the $400. I bought cheaper one prior to this one, but it is night and day difference. It is bright - I can see the screen (picture, letter, etc.) during the day time without no problems. The resolution is great enough to view Power Point slides and movies. So far it is great.
Used the HDMI connection to make a power point presentation. It works OK, but trying to use this projector for a slideshow using pictures has proved fruitless. It is probably something to do with settings on my laptop, but the instructions with the projector are skimpy at best. The online troubleshooting was too complicated to be of any assistance. Instructions for which or when to connect various types of cables to the projector are confusing. Definitely not for the IT challenged user.
A great projector for the price! We use it in our Toastmasters club for presentations that accompany speeches. Has all the basics for beautiful presentations.
This is a very nice projector. I was a little worried about the picture just because I wanted the WXGA rather then the XGA. But when I received it I open it up and plugged it in and the picture was beautiful with very vivid colors and it was the middle of the day. I have used it outside for outdoor movie nights and it’s great. Love this projector!!!!!
Great projector for the price. Very bright even with lots of Windows in the classroom. Mounted from the ceiling myself.
Thus far this projector is exceeding expectations. Simple to setup and use. Good clear picture. A value at this price point. I would recommend and buy again.
Nice projector, although not self focusing…would try to find that option when buying again.
This projector has worked great since installing. It gets used a couple of hours each week. It is bright, but the image is smaller than the one it replaced and there is not a…
Great product on time delivery!
Perfect resolution for office use
Perfect!!!
Great projector. I use it for teaching - had a nice range and large, clear picture. Only drawback is that it gets a bit too hot after 90 min so so.
Good service great product
comments powered by DisqusI use it at home for watching movies. The resolution is good. The contrast is not very high. Blacks are lit too much (which you get often as it is not a wide aspect ratio image).
