Customers say
Customers praise the projector’s picture quality, with one mentioning it can project a 100-110 inch image, and its brightness, with one noting dark scenes are very clear. They find it well worth the money, easy to use and set up, and appreciate its sturdy construction. The sound quality receives mixed feedback – while some find it very quiet, others report a deafening fan noise. The projector’s durability is concerning, with multiple customers reporting it won’t last more than two years, and the HDMI port is problematic as it doesn’t work at all for some customers.

Great projector. Love the 3D. Lacking a few options but great overall.
One problem I have is that I use this primarily from behind the couch, at about eye level. At this particular height (probably the least common), the image is projected too high for the space I want it in. The instructions say the project has to be fairly level when in operation (I think the allowable angle change from level is +/-15°). So basically it has to be at coffee table height or hanging from the ceiling.Bluetooth audio capability would have been nice.A larger range of screen sizes via the zoom function would have been helpful.More input options would have been nice too…it only has 1 HDMI port and nothing else. There is a USB power OUT port, but not sure what I would use that for…I tried to use it with a USB-powered JBL speaker, and a loud piercing noise was observed.Overall, though, I love it. The screen is fairly bright even during the day. I am currently projecting on a non-prepped, light gray wall until a permanent solution is decided upon, and I am still amazed at the quality of the image. I may do nothing further as far as the ‘screen’ is concerned.My main reason for selecting this model was its 3D capability. It’s outstanding, at least to my eyes. Again, I am projecting onto a light gray wall–I was wondering if the 3D would work at all but it does, fabulously. It has 2 3D modes (i forget what the second one is) but I use DLP Link mode and DLP Link glasses that I bought here at Amazon:-DLP Link 3D Glasses, ELEPHAS 144Hz Rechargeable Active Shutter Eyewear for Most DLP-Link 3D Projectors- Acer, ViewSonic, BenQ Vivitek, Optoma, Panasonic, Dell, Viewsonic (4 Pack)In case you were wondering, 3D DLP Link glasses sync with the images on the screen by a nearly invisible (to naked eyes) rapid white flash embedded in the 3D video. These should not be confused with 3D DLP glasses (similar name but without the ‘LINK’) which require an IR emitter pointed at the viewers to sync the glasses for proper 3D viewing.

Viable 1080p projector
Iâve gone through a gamut of projectors over the years starting around 2018 and have found Optoma to strike the chord of affordability and quality.With that said, this model, the HD146x has a clear, accurate picture, definitely full high definition image.I had been reluctant to upgrade to 1080p since my 720p Optoma had been doing me good for years. But, for a good price I got the 146x and I can definitely see an increase in clarity from 720p.Image is bright and brilliant in moderate lighting even while the projector is set to eco mode.There isnât much menu settings to tinker with color profiles and such. Iâm trying to dial in the contrast and brightness ratio on my set up.One thing I do not prefer is the dynamic black setting. I think it tries to adjust for white and dark images from scene to scene. But i think its unnecessary. Brightness and contrast looks fine without that option on. When on i think it makes the projector work harder as the fan revs up when bright scenes appear. Without the option on the fan remains nearly inaudible in eco mode and dynamic black off.This model is rather large compared to my previous 720p optoma model. The plastic housing doesnât feel durable either. While running the projector, the plastic housing definitely becomes hot to the touch. The glossy finish on the top easily becomes scratched and smudged. All in all, I donât see this model as practically portable.At 11.5 feet i am able to get about an 82 inch wide image.Overall, for the price point this is definitely a high quality product if youâre looking for a full HD projector. Image does not disappoint. Live TV, sports events, movies and video games all look great and perform and play well.

Going to work for just about everyone
I purchased this hesitantly after some research on it made me believe it was worth a shot given the low price. For reference, I have a 15âx15â media room with no windows, a 110â white screen with a ceiling mount, a 7.1 surround system through a sony receiver; DirecTV and Apple TV connected. I donât use this for gaming, donât use 3D.I replaced a 7yr old EPSON 5030ub I bought for around $2400 in 2013, which was acting up in operations and had developed other visual problems. The repairs plus a soon to be needed $300 EPSON bulb were going to cost more than buying this Optoma so I decided to give it a try given its price, reviews, and free returns. Opening the box it looked quite a bit cheaper than my Epson, with a fairly dinky remote and no real instructions to speak of. Using the same universal mount I put it up, powered on and went to work. It was fairly easy to flip the image and get into focus, and had some controls to get the tilt correct. Immediately I was struck with the brightness, which was better than what I had with the Epson. The picture was comparable and I frankly couldnât tell the difference right out of the box.After a week of watching various soccer matches, movies, and shows all of the viewers agreed it was just as good if not better than the Epson. There are a couple of deficiencies that I notice I doubt the rest of the family did, and frankly we donât care. When it is just on a black screen, I can notice an ever so slight red tint to the black screen. Additionally if I shift my eyes rapidly I can see the ârainbow effectâ Iâve red about with DLP projectors such as this. But not noticeable for any of us watching regularly. I donât believe this one has quite as depth of color as the Epson, and no doubt if I was to spend about 4x as much on a 3LCD Epson 4K projector the picture would likely be much better. However, for under $600 I believe this is a solid choice and am completely satisfied with the overall product. No-frills, but bright, with a sharp 1080p picture, quiet and easy operation, this one does the job just fine.

La calidad de la imagen es impresionante y las dimensiones de la proyección te hacen sentir que estás en un cine. Lo único negativo que podrÃa decir del proyector es que el ventilador hace un poco de ruido. Salvo este detalle, es un gran producto a precio asequible, mejor que una televisión!
