Review: Awesome if you use ambient light screen - I really love this projector. It took some adjusting of colors and brightness. I found a good scene that was bright and showed a sky in the background and adjusted until i had good color and brightness untill the whites were not washed out and i could see the clouds properly. Definitely took some tweaking. But the picture is great. In bright mode i dont hear the fan and its only about 12 feet from my couch. I cant stress this enough but use an ambient light reflecting screen. Its important. The screen is meant for only receiving light from below. So it shows the projector light but doesnt get washed out by the room lights. I have three large windows in this room and watch during the day with lights on and blinds open and can see the picture just fine. Of course it washes out a tad. But its very watchable. In the pictures added i show no lights on and my recessed lights on full. The color washes a tad but it looks great. If you take the time to adjust color, brightness, contrast and other settings to make it look right. You will not be disappointed. I am using a 100 inch screen and the projector only sits about a foot from the wall. I also use an apple tv for all my apps. I don't think the out of the box apps and connectivity is all that great. To get the best performance and apps, use a different streaming device. Fire tv or something. I also use a bose sound system. I have never used the speaker built in. If you plan on using a projector, you should use a receiver and external speakers and streaming device. Its going to give you the best sound and use of any apps you might want. The color and brightness are the best i have seen for the price sub 4k video quality of any projector i havr ever had. And i have had many. My old epson was very close, but was a ceiling mounted projector and i hate casting shadows on the screen. Adjustment to the screen is very usable. You have lots of options to get the picture correct and you can use screen shift if you need to use the projector at an angle. I do plan on upgrading to a 4k if i can find something for the right price that has this level of brightness. Dont hesitate to buy this projector. If all else fails, you have prime return. I hope this review helps you.
Review: I love being able to move a 100 inch TV screen in the trunk of a small car. - It’s true HD 1080P , setup was easy. Everything works, plays blu-rays in great detail, even streaming services look great, has an aux jack out for sound to a surround system if your crazy audio specific about your sound, otherwise it has an onboard speaker. Overall a great investment. Even plays 3D movies with a pair of DLP link Glasses, just make sure you have a 3D Blu ray media and a blu ray player that can play 3D. did not have the white around the LCD , that some complain about, where your picture on the wall ends and there would be slivers if light escaping around from how the LCD screen was installed in front of the lamp. I’ve used it with a Mac, a PC, Apple TV, Google Chromcast, it just works. Do not expect a 4K picture from a 1080p device, cause 4K is like 4 1080p devices stacked around each other. You can use a silver screen to improve screen image, but a smooth regular white wall looks amazing too! I can have lights on in the room and it not affect the image, stays bright and crisp. But once you turn the lights off, the images get deeper and brighter. If your looking for a large screen, but don’t want a Large TV, than I would totally suggest this.

**Q: Can I use this projector on Starboard or smartboard?**
A: Yes you can use it but it doesn't provide function, but note that it is not as bright as some of the higher end models and does not integrate with touch software it is merely a projector. Very high quality resolution for the price.

**Q: I need a projector that will show documents with very little glare on a classroom whiteboard. Would this do the job?**
A: Not really, it doesn't display well on white surfaces. Epson has projectors specifically designed for classrooms. try the "EPSON POWERLITE 675W ULTRA SHORT THROW CLASSROOM PROJECTOR " it's cheaper than this one because it doesn't have as much  features but if you just using it to present documents you don't need many of the features this projector offers. You don't need the wall mounted like you see in the images it works on a table as well.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice projector but you can do better.
*by S***R on November 7, 2018*

This unit gives a nice sharp picture, however the colors seem just a little off and no amount of adjustment seems to fix this. The brightness is wonderful with lights on and you can see the image clearly. The images have a slight greenish hue sometimes and I keep it in game or cinema mode. there is no focus adjustment but it comes out of the box pretty well calibrated. The unit is heavy so make sure you have a sturdy stand for it to sit on. I would consider getting a laser projector if you want better color accuracy and longer bulb life. All in all it's not bad for one of the cheaper ultra short throws available right now. I will likely return it to get something with better color accuracy but I'm picky.
