I'm thinking about it? BUY IT!

I've had this projector for over 6 months now so I think my review is pretty objective. I LOVE this projector! Read more below. My setup I installed this projector in my very bright living room. I have 5 7ft windows perpendicular to my screen so here in Texas we get plenty of natural sunlight during the day. Despite this, the image is fairly clear and not blurry, at least in my opinion (the first two photos). I connected this projector to a CineGrey screen. I highly recommend using a light absorbing screen material if used in a brightly lit room. It really helps with the picture quality in daylight. I think I spent another $120 on CineGrey. The next two photos and videos are taken with the shutters closed to block out as much light as possible. You can see a noticeable improvement in image quality. However, at night or in the dark, this projector glows. It's cinema quality and has a bright, sharp picture. Benefits1. Bright picture even during the day.2. The sound is clear enough, especially when sitting underneath or next to it. I have a sound system, so this feature is disabled. But during the initial installation I checked it.3. Light. Easy to handle. Disadvantages 1. Ceiling mounting options are limited. I bought a universal mount and had to wiggle it to make it work.2. Limited keyhole adjustment. I've spent too much time perfecting it. My general advice for anyone thinking about using a projector in living rooms or bright rooms is to get a projector with the highest brightness, over 3000 lumens, that you can afford. Obviously 4k projectors are better, but that can't be beat for 1080p.

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Doubtful
