> 3 dayThe flexibility is excellent, the optical lens shifting, full corner pinning and large zoom range, making the projectors placement extremely flexible. I have been using it for outdoor movies this summer, projecting to a 145 screen with ease. The three chip LCD design means no rainbow artifacts -- I replaced a DLP projector, as even slight rainbowing detracts from my movie experience. The colors are good, but just a tad less saturated in the default configuration as compared with the BenQ DLP I replaced. Eight movies later, Ive very happen with this purchase.

> 3 dayWanted to start out with the unboxing, this is a solid unit in which you need a quality ceiling mount (Id recommend a professional if you arent that handy). Now this has your basic setup steps to go through as soon as you turn the unit on but I would recommend doing some research and reading on this unit as there is so much more advanced tweaking you can do. I made some presets and am able to change setting based on room brightness, screen aspect ratio, etc. You have a couple HDMI slots, USB plugs, Mini USB, Audio, etc so should be all you need to hook up any devices you need. The picture with 4k is so clear and crisp, the details just jump out at you and if you pay attention it is almost like you are looking our your window or outside it is just that real. My kids love it as it makes it seem like every night is a movie theater night and we no longer have a bulky tv setup to look at. Wanting to get a retractable screen for it to make our setup look a lot cleaner but currently just have a regular screen. Also, I hooked up with our wireless surround sound effortlessly, there was no sound delay and to me it was a hassle free experience. I have had other TV setups that were a lot more challenging but this was easy. Cant say enough good things about this unit, just really makes the family movie experience that much more delightful! Would highly recommend!

> 3 dayJust buy it, but plan on having Netflix premium. You wont want to watch anything that is not Ultra HD 4K. I painted the wall with Behr silver screen from home depot. I have 134 inch picture in a 12 foot room. The picture quality is beyond amazing. I just hope this thing lasts for a while.

> 3 dayThe projector has converted one of our room upstairs into a movie theater. I am going to keep the review to basics for everyone to easily satisfy their most common use case - watching variety of movies at home with readily available stuff at home. It connects with our bluetooth sound far, the picture rate is fast moving and bright - even with the sun coming in from the windows in the room, there are ample adjustments to adjust the horizontal and vertical pictures, the zoom and the sharpness, we have plugged in a chromecast in the back, and can simply stream using any device with the chromecast - meaning netflix/prime from iphone/ipad works, the supplied remote works great. We have seen all sorts of movies and shows including action, sports, cartoons, music videos, documentaries. The inbuilt speakers are handy - of course, much better to connect with other home theater speakers or sound bars. (If I were to pick one thing to improve - the protective cap for the projector lens - have it attached with a cord or have a slide on cover mechanism so that we dont have to keep track of it when you remove and kludge put it back on. ) This projector is not even comparable to our earlier old projector - difference of day and night. The family actually wants to use the media room now to see movies.

> 3 dayWe have a bonus room/movie theatre which the kids use a majority of the year and we use for major events like the Super Bowl, etc. My son has his PS4 hooked up to the receiver so he plays 2K20 and Fortnite while the daughter has spend the night movie parties in there. Everyone loves the ability to consume their content via the 120 projector screen in 4k. For the past three months we have thoroughly enjoyed this Epson 3200 projector. Unlike some of the bigger Epson projectors which support HDMI over wireless (which comes with its own issues with Netflix, etc.) this one does allow you to project content over IP (either LAN or WLAN with optional wireless module) This allows the user to bring their own device and throw content to the screen without physically connecting the device to the projector (or receiver). To do this you have to use Epsons app or software. The problem with this approach is the audio as most of you looking to buy this will be hooking to a receiver for movies/games, etc. If you project wirelessly through the app, the content goes directly to the projector, bypassing the receiver so any audio needs you have will have to come out of the back of the projector via the built in tiny speakers. I wouldnt utilize this feature for much more than showing a powerpoint. Before I get too far ahead of myself, I should point out that installation was quite simple and just involves the power cord and plugging in my HDMI cord (which we had already run to the ceiling from my receiver). Both kids and my wife immediately commented on how much darker the blacks were than our Sony projector. Without getting into the technical color calibrations, Epson offers you multiple modes on the projector to choose from. Unanimously the family chose natural while my son does like to change it to dynamic when he plays fortnite because he swears the brighter colors make him play better. If youre considering this projector you have probably seen the bigger brother to this unit, the Epson 3800. Its $200 more and includes some nice to have features such as better contrast, better brightness and some lens shift adjustments. For us those features wouldnt be justification for the extra money. All in all this is a major bump up from our 1080p 3D Sony projector that we had and am thoroughly enjoying the rich 4k titles (albeit it via our HDMI cable instead of wireless!)

> 3 dayThis is a 4K projector from Epson that is meant to play games, films, and sports/regular TV. Lets get right to it: [Setup] In general, easy and quick here. Its a turn on and go type of setup. However, if you want to get really in depth with the settings, it is *definitely* there should you want to. Were talking the ability to adjust *any* aspect of the picture (brightness, saturation, color, white balance, sharpness, etc etc). However, I played with the settings just a little (mostly to turn all the enhancements off) and found it just peachy. There are adjust picture controls inside the menu and on the projector. I was able to get the geometry to perfectly match up (at least to my eyes) to a rectangle. Lens shift details are: Vertical: -60.0% to +60.0% (H center) Horizontal: -24.0% to +24.0% (V center) Inputs are: 2x HDMI® 2.0 (18 Gbps) HDCP 2.2 1x USB Type A 2.0 A power supply (for streaming devices) 1x USB (for wireless accessory and firmware updates) 1x Mini USB (service only) 1x Audio out mini plug (3.5 mm) [Picture Quality] Its superb as far as projectors go. You dont really know what youre missing, until you see the difference. I can say that even with a $100 projector, that its clear enough to watch a movie. With a $500 projector, I can say its very clear -- and even looks quite good. With this 4k projector, it starts to change from yea, this is a good projector picture to competing, and succeeding your LED TV. The real strength here is with color and crispness. Its *better* than a digital cinema, for example. It rivals LED TVs (succeeds a lot of them in my opinion). However, as others have mentioned, the black levels are diluted and muggy. Eh, not much else to say with that -- but the black levels are mediocre. You wont notice it unless youre really looking, but its similar to a theatre experience. The 4K picture, though, with 4K content -- just, wow. I just cant get enthusiastic about going to the theatre anymore, due to the fact I have a better theatre experience in my own home (with the exception of not having other patrons me, mind you). The color gamut on this gets to 100%, whereas many TVs only go to 60% of the color output. The picture, needless to say, is superb. [Misc] Bluetooth audio -- yes, it works with bluetooth surround sound. Works very well. Lumens (very good for this price) at 2900. You can have even modest ambient light, and get a perfectly well formed, and rich picture. Aspect Ratio - Native: 16:9 widescreen (4:3 resize,16:10 resize); compatible with 4:3 with Normal, Full or Zoom Modes Supported Resolution - 3840 x 2160, Full HD 1080p/i, HD 720p, 576p/i, 480p/i Replacement lamp: 250 W UHE Lamp Life: ECO Mode: Up to 5,000 hours (~2500 movies) Medium Mode: Up to 4,000 hours (~2000 movies) High Mode: Up to 3,500 hours (~ 1750 movies) Max projection size: 300 Weight: ~15lb (on the heavy side, but not out of the ordinary. Its a big projector) [Closing] This is a 4k premium projector that has a lamp life that last a very long time, and gives you a picture that exceeds almost all projectors sub $1.5k Is it worth it to spend more? Absolutely -- if youre going for a true cinema replacement experience (and a full on gaming experience). Excellent 4k projector

> 3 dayWow! Its really bright and sharp. I love how the Epson projectors are bright even when the picture isnt just white. If your comparing just lumen to lumen, know that the the Epson 3LCD has the same bright level for white and color. The advertised brightness for a DLP is just white brightness and it loses brightness even with solid colors. The picture is bright. Its really good looking. Contrast is very good for a projector and my understanding is that its even better for the 3800. (I really feel that brightness is more important than contrast for any room with any ambient light). The picture quality is spectacular. We tried a screen, but we just use a white wall for projection because who wouldnt want a wall size picture! I have a cheap led pico projector, but its worthless compared to something like this. Dont get hung up on the size of the projector or cheap out. Once you see the picture thats as bright and sharp as this, youll know why its worth the money. The only thing I wish for is a digital sound out. It has a 3.5mm out for sound and I would love a optical or digital sound out. Yes, it does now do bluetooth, but I dont want any interference for my wireless controllers when gaming. I use an HDMI audio extractor between my source and the projector to send the sound my speakers. I guess not having sound in the projector does make sense because many might need long audio cables, but I still think it would be nice to have it. Ive had cheap projectors. I cant imagine going back to 1000-2000 lumens after this. I cant imagine wanting a small projector that does 100-500 lumens and having to put blackout curtains just to see anything. I think small projectors have a place, but for the home theatre or gaming system, you want something bright and accurate. Its really awesome to watch my wall size 4k movies, and wall-size ps4 pro 60fps is pretty breathtaking too. I totally suggest this!
