Review on Epson EpiqVision Mini EF12 Smart Streaming Laser Projector, HDR, Android TV, Movies, Family Gaming, Portable, Sound By Yamaha, 3LCD, Full HD 1080P, 1000 Lumens Color & White Brightness Bluetooth Black by Dennis Long

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Horrendous 120ms input lag. Not for gaming.

I needed a screen projected up on ceiling so that I can play video games while lying down on my bed, and Epson EF12 delivers a lot of attractive features for that: short throw ratio of 1.00:1, very quiet fan noise, compact and aesthetically pleasing looks, HDMI CEC function, smart phone screen mirroring with built-in Chromecast, laser lamps that ensures long life span of the projector, and high contrast ratio with very vibrant colors. Epson got almost everything right for millennials with small apartment, BUT there is one major flaw; a very noticeable input lag of around 120ms. It means I won't be able to make that leap of faith because the response is too slow. It's a real shame because EF12 is one of the rare projectors that actually recommends vertical mount on the wall, too. I believe this could have been the go-to projector for several years to come, if only it didn't have that horrendous input lag.
