> 3 dayI feel bad for those reviews with B stock projectors sent to them. Mine is brand new and functions as expected for a single chip DLP Laser projector. The colors really pop and have to be seen IRL to understand it. Movies like The Grinch and Birds of Prey that have a lot of RGB coloring in to them are great. I am in the category of people that can see the rainbow effect of DLP when moving their eyes across the screen (so -1 for Picture Quality) I have heard that 3 Chip DLP is better however this projector looks really great considering its price. It is fairly quiet as well. When I get it in the mount 12 foot off the floor I doubt I will be able to hear it. Considering that it is not 4K resolution we can comfortably sit 7.5 feet away from a 135 inch screen and it looks sharp, not razor sharp. I dont know who says that is too close, seems like with a TV people sit further away and a projector you sit way closer, it is a totally different experience. I installed a manual pull down screen over my current 65 inch TV so we can either have a pretty good sized TV or a movie screen. I added a Fire Stick to it to be able to stream all content, I run a plex server as well so I can watch live antenna TV over the plex server to the fire stick, Super Bowl is going to be sweet! No regrets on not getting a 4K laser projector as of current they are 3-4 times the price. Laser is way worth the money over a lamp, no warm up or cool down time, and a lot quieter. Update - projector is mounted and screen is installed. The whole family loves it!! 02/10/2021 Update Again - Settled on using an Nvidia Shield Pro, whish I would have done that from the beginning. Ended up pulling ethernet and coax to the Shield for live TV, using a USB TV Tuner and a 1TB SSD Drive. The Shield controls the power on and off on the projector and the Bluetooth volume on my sound bar, the fire stick and cube did not. A buddy of mine went for a 1000 lumen, lamp,4k project, I helped him install it. Nothing against the brand or type but the 4x brightness and quieter fan makes this one the way to go, yeah his was cheaper but I can watch mine during the day with high ambient light. Big improvement in the way I view it, after watching for a month I barely notice the DLP rainbow.

> 3 dayFor the price, the overall performance cant be beat. When calibrated/adjusted for best picture, brightness is less than claimed, but still bright. Color saturation and gamut could be better, but that is what you get with an RGBY color wheel, despite laser light source. Its not at all bad, but you can get better performance for less money with an RGBRGB color wheel, albeit with a significant sacrifice of brightness. Whites are very good, black level is decent, and of course DLP does motion better than any other consumer display technology. 3D capability is a bonus. Happily illuminates a 1.0 gain, 180 inch matte white screen in darkness. Bottom line is, at this level of light output with a laser light source, I dont know that you can do any better at this price.
