Review on Epson Projector Portable Lumens Brightness by Mayrando Clark

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great product for this money!

Great product for the money. I bought it for home use and occasional student club use. I don't think I could find anything else for the same price that works as well. That being said, below are the observations I made after a month of use and about 50 hours. We connected it to 3 different sources (Xbox, computer, camcorder) and used 4 different methods (USB, Fire, AV and 9 pin). USB connection is GOOD. It should load the software the first time it connects but it worked without any issues and the second time it just started. When using a USB connection, the audio comes through the projector. The sound isn't great at all, but it worked fine for a PPT presentation. However, it freezes when using USB for video. Again, USB is fine, but be aware that it's not suitable for video. The first day it arrived my son plugged it into his Xbox and played it on our 12ft by 9 wall! His friends loved using it this way. Connected and earned with yellow, white and red audio-video connectors. The sound came through the projector and that was the only thing that wasn't amazing! I also used it to play movies via torrent. Sometimes they can be dark and you can easily adjust the brightness to make them visible. I hooked up a computer with a 9 pin connector and external speakers and it was a great wall experience at about 12 x 9. I also used this at a birthday party to play a flashback style video. The room was fully lit and it was still clearly visible. The zoom doesn't have much range, so you'll have to move the projector closer or farther from the wall if you want the image to be mostly larger, but I don't find that too distracting. All in all a great product for the money. USB is a good feature. The audio can be a bit muffled, but to be honest I rarely use the projector's speakers. If I had to buy another one in the near future, I would buy this one!
