Revainrating 5 out of 5

Exceeded my expectations! Worth every penny! Updated*

Wow, that's a fantastic projector for the price! Great native 1080p video that looks like a 1080p TV but you can zoom the screen up to 200 inches. It only weighs a few pounds and is very easy to install. You simply remove the 4 sticky bumpers on the bottom of the legs to show where the mounting screws go. I installed it in less than 20 minutes using Vivo's Universal Adjustable Ceiling Mount (MOUNT-VPO1W). I've been looking for something reasonably priced and at least TV quality for my new living room/theater for a while, but for less than $200 I've had no luck. Low lumens and terrible picture quality just didn't help. Then I saw this for less than $300. I have a 120 inch screen and built a stand around it so all I needed was the right projector. It was for us! It supports game movies and videos in 4K and HD quality and has a really great picture with everything we use. Even during the day in bright sunshine, the image is still excellent. I also bought a 5-port HDMI switch so we could easily switch between the cable box, Firestick, Wii, PS4 and our Pandora 6 box without having to constantly plug and unplug HDMI cables from the projector. *Note* This is by no means a 4K quality projector. It's native 1080p and looks good even at 200 inches. If you want a 4K projector (and not one that just supports it) it'll cost you a few thousand, but if you just want something with a good TV quality picture and good brightness that you can see in your all day living room can see. , Is that what you want. *When I say you can watch during the day I don't mean outdoors in direct sunlight, but even with the sun shining out of 3 different windows with slightly sheer curtains everything works fine and we have no problems seeing during the day. , or anytime for that matter. The speakers aren't bad, but I use my recommended surround sound, or at least some speakers. The adjustable fan is a nice feature and very quiet for us. I really like that the vertical and horizontal keystone corrections are controlled from the remote rather than manually. This works very well to get nice straight edges easily. The only way to enlarge the screen is to move the projector further back as it doesn't have a zoom function. It's the only feature I wish it had, but it does "zoom back" up and down to ensure your screen fits perfectly in the space you need. We use it as our main TV instead of our 4K 70-inch Smart Sharp TV (which is saying something!). I've attached a few images to give you an idea of the image quality. Another thing to watch out for * If you're not getting sound from your Fire Stick, cable box, or other device, it's due to Dolby Audio. Go to the sound settings and turn it off and you're done. Also*, if your video won't play or audio and video drop out, try a different HDMI cable. I had this problem when I got my projector but it was a faulty HDMI, swapped it out and it worked great. Very happy with my purchase, as is the family! 5 stars and highly recommended. * 2 months and everything is still perfect! We use this every day and haven't had any problems yet. Great buy and worth every penny!
