I've had this projector for about a month and am impressed with both the quality of the picture and the projector. First off, the projector provides a crisp and clear image that is both large and bright. You can use the projector in a bright room and don't have to worry about it being too dim.One of the things I really love about this projector is the ability to project a very large screen. I purchased a 123 inch ALR Ultra Short Throw screen and mounted it on the wall, but before the screen arrived I was watching the projector on the bare wall and it was still pretty cool and easy to see. Using it with the screen makes the picture even more amazing and keeps the projector light from reflecting into the room so the light stays on the screen and the reflection is ...

First off, the projector provides a crisp and clear image that is both large and bright. You can use the projector in a bright room and don't have to worry about it being too dim.One of the things I really love about this projector is the ability to project a very large screen. I purchased a 123 inch ALR Ultra Short Throw screen and mounted it on the wall, but before the screen arrived I was watching the projector on the bare wall and it was still pretty cool and easy to see. Using it with the screen makes the picture even more amazing and keeps the projector light from reflecting into the room so the light stays on the screen and the reflection is aimed directly at the viewers in front of the screen. I also really like the clean look of this setup - there are no cords coming out of the wall to the screen. The projector is easy to setup and the picture can be adjusted using the remote to fit precisely on the screen. Because the projector is heavy it doesn't get bumped or moved very easily so the picture remains in place. Another nice thing about this ultra short projector is that you can walk around in the room without interrupting the picture. And finally, I really like the sound quality of the 2.1 channel speaker. It seems more robust than a TV speaker but not as high quality as a dedicated soundbar. It has plenty of volume and decent bass. In addition, the projector operates quietly and doesn't have a loud fan like other projectors I've used. There is a lot to like about this projector.There are also a few nuances that I should point out with this projector. The first is that you cannot download the Netflix app on the projector. I'm not sure why but I think it has something to do with Netflix not allowing use on a projector. The workaround for me was to use the HDMI input for an alternative source of apps. It works just as well but I do need two remotes to operate now. Also, if you use an open security WIFI network you will need to create a secure network before the projector will connect. Also, I was unable to get my iOS phone to connect with Chromecast so my guess is that Chromecast is only available to Android phones. One other nuance that I noticed was the ability to achieve precise focus. There is a rather large lever that is used to focus, but it is hard to tell exactly where to set it. With that said, the picture is still very focused and pretty awesome so not really an issue but an observation.Overall, this projector has a great quality picture and performs well. I am really enjoying the experience of watching the big screen right in my living room and would recommend this product to anyone looking to upgrade their home theater.

I am impressed with the Espon LS800 Ultra Short-Throw projector. I've had standard projectors in the past, and due to mounting they typically stayed with the house when it was time to move. The short throw LS800 solves one of my biggest pain points, which is the space required and the semi fixed installation of a projector.For this review, I want to highlight what this projector can do, straight out of the box, projecting from the floor onto the wall. No fancy screen, no ambient light control, and no perfectly positioned furniture, much to my disappointment in not having these things ahead of the projector arriving.In the box is the projector, power cable, remote, and quick start guide.

The short throw LS800 solves one of my biggest pain points, which is the space required and the semi fixed installation of a projector.For this review, I want to highlight what this projector can do, straight out of the box, projecting from the floor onto the wall. No fancy screen, no ambient light control, and no perfectly positioned furniture, much to my disappointment in not having these things ahead of the projector arriving.In the box is the projector, power cable, remote, and quick start guide. Setup was painless, the quickstart guide gives two reference distances, one for a 100" image and another for 120" image. I am all about going big, so for a 120" image, I placed the projector 6.8" from the wall. The next step is going through Google assisted setup, I was able to use my Android phone to quickly pair with wifi, and in less than 10 minutes from unboxing, the projector is up and running.The final step to setup was screen calibration, this can be done manually using the Espon remote, or though a very easy to use Epson app. The app allows you to take a photo of the screen in current state and will automatically correct, see photos for before and after corrections.The projector comes with the standard Android TV interface, and the ability to connect all the expected streaming apps through Google Playstore. In addition there are 3 HDMI ports, 2 USB-A ports, optical out, headphones, and DC Out. While I primarily use this for streaming tv and movies, I have also tested out with a desktop gaming PC and PS4. I am able to stream high quality graphics with both devices connecting through a 2.1 HDMI cable.As for performance, the built-in audio speaker spans the front of the projector and the quality is ok. One benefit is that the projector itself is relatively quiet, so no need to overcome the fan noise associated with prior generations of projectors. That being said, it's hard to expect built in audio to match the performance of the expansive 4k visuals, or fill up a room that supports this size screen. So, to be fair, the 2.1ch Yamaha with virtual surround can hold its own and sounds great for streaming, but to get the full on immersive home theater experience, you'll want to add in a surround sound system. An upside is that you can pair the speaker via bluetooth to your phone to stream music.On the visual performance, this 4000 lumens, 4k projector with 16:9 aspect ratio and digital zoom can throw a 120" size visual from less than 7" from the wall / screen. That in itself is game changing for me. No more calculating distances and figuring how to configure furniture around the projector, or wiring for a ceiling mount. The projector weighs in at 28 lbs and approximately 27" long, 13" deep, and 6" tall. I have placed it on a 12" riser to optimize the projection placement on the wall space I have available as well as to reduce the safety shut off being triggered(more on this below). With that setup, I can stream to my light colored wall during the daylight, with easy viewing (see photos). Of course, the immersive colors, solid blacks, and 4k definition don't truly pop until I eliminate 75% of all ambient light in the room.As mentioned above, the projector also has a safety feature that when it recognizes something in the immediate output area it switches off visuals and pops up a small warning box. The sensitivity is high, as my 8 lb cat will set off this warning, but once I moved it off the floor, this eliminated the issue with the cat walking by and triggering the warning. The warning will still trigger when a person walks by, but these events are much more controllable.In summary, this projector is great out of the box, on the floor, pointed at a wall with a ton of ambient light. However, the 4k visuals are vibrant and immersive when viewed in a low ambient light environment. Gaming is fantastic, with no noticeable lag, and the virtual surround providers distinctive directional gaming sound. Due to the versatility and small distance to screen requirement I highly recommend this for any home theater or gaming connoisseur, with controlled ambient light or not, either way this projector provides for an enjoyable viewing experience.

The Epson Ultra LS800 Ultra Short Throw Projector is the coolest device I’ve ever owned, period. I’ve always wanted a projector but never felt it was practical to hang one from the ceiling and do the whole movie theater setup in our home. The LS800 solves that and turns any wall in your home into a 150” movie theater while only having to sit less than a foot away from the wall and doesn’t require a screen to work properly. I’m absolutely blown away by this product.Initial setup took about an hour. The projector is a bit beefy, weighing about 27 pounds and taking up a decent footprint on my family room hutch. While this is an amazing projector there are some nuances to it that should be discussed. Our family room hutch sits about 3-4 feet off the ground and we have ...

The LS800 solves that and turns any wall in your home into a 150” movie theater while only having to sit less than a foot away from the wall and doesn’t require a screen to work properly. I’m absolutely blown away by this product.Initial setup took about an hour. The projector is a bit beefy, weighing about 27 pounds and taking up a decent footprint on my family room hutch. While this is an amazing projector there are some nuances to it that should be discussed. Our family room hutch sits about 3-4 feet off the ground and we have 10 foot ceilings in our home and because of that I can’t display the projector at full size without the screen leaking into the ceiling. Luckily the screen is moveable and adjustable and in the future I might consider getting a lower sitting hutch so the projector can display at full size. The initial picture looked slightly warped and uneven but that’s adjustable with the front legs and a dial on the back that changes the perspective of the screen. There are settings in the projector itself that you can manually adjust portions of the screen to make it fit your wall. There also is an Epson Settings Assistant app that automatically adjusts the screen by taking a picture, but the only problem with this feature is that when I go to take the picture it resets the adjustments I previously made and since the hutch sits too high and the screen is now displaying on the ceiling the app adjustment doesn’t work, forcing me to it manually. Nonetheless I am very happy with the size of the screen as it’s current size is way bigger than our previous 75 inch tv.After initial setup I downloaded all my streaming apps and connected my Xbox One X to test out the colors and picture quality. Unfortunately Netflix is not able to be downloaded through the Android store. You will have to purchase a fire stick or Roku in order to watch Netflix on the projector. I’d be curious to know why Netflix isn’t available as I have an android Hisense tv in our bedroom and it includes Netflix. It’s a minor issue but means that one of the 3 HDMI ports will now be taken up by a Roku or fire stick. Disney + looks amazing and 4K content streaming from YouTube is absolutely stunning. The only imperfections actually come from the fact that the projector is displaying on my wall so if you have any imperfections in the wall they will become visible but not enough to bother me. Honestly for displaying right on the wall with no screen the picture is still gorgeous. We will probably look at getting a screen in the future because this tv is not going anywhere anytime soon and I’d be curious to see the difference with a proper white projection screen. One setting that is useful for displaying on the bare wall is you can alter the colors based on your paint color. Once I switched to gray it made the colors pop that much more! There is also a manual adjustment lever on the side of the projector to increase clarity and a handy size panel to hide all your inputs cleanly. There are 3 HDMI 2.0 ports with 2 supporting 4K and there is a dedicated 3rd gaming HDMI that supports 120hz/1080p signals. It took me a few minutes to realize that the 3rd HDMI gaming port was a separate button on the remote rather than under the normal inputs section. Once I found that input and turned on my Xbox I went into the settings on my Xbox and realized that it will display 4k but only at 60hz. The projector will display 120hz but only in 1080p. Not a huge deal but something to be noted. Games look beautiful and I’m in heaven playing them on such a big screen. I’ve always wanted a huge projector to play games on and I couldn’t be happier with the results. With any projector it’s better if you have a slightly darker room but I am pleasantly surprised by how well the projector holds up during the day time especially not having a white screen to project on. The sound on the projector is great as well. The front 2.1 Yamaha speakers are actually quite impressive and will do the job if you don’t have surround sound but luckily the projector has an optical output so I immediately hooked it up to my surround sound!Despite a few small quirks with the screen size I couldn’t be happier with the Epson LS800. It turns any wall in your home into a movie theater!! I’ve always wanted a projector and now we have one in the home and I’m a kid in a candy store. This projector will stay in our family room for years to come and I can’t wait to have countless football parties and movie nights in our home with this beauty. If you’re considering getting one I can’t recommend it enough because every time I turn it on the biggest smile comes on my face. What more could you ask for? Go buy it now!

There’s a lot to like about the Epson LS800. It’s an ultra short throw projector that gives you a huge, bright, and crisp screen without the hassle of mounting and running long cords. It doesn’t eliminate all of the hassles associated with going with a projector and it’s missing some features I really wish Epson would have included for the price, but overall I’m happy with it as a home cinema solution for my basement.Getting the LS800 unboxed, it was a lot bigger than I was expecting, or at least a lot bigger than Epson’s marketing material makes it look. At 27.4” wide x 6.2” tall x 13.4” deep it fits on my IKEA BESTA stand, but takes up a good amount of the top space. I set it up in my basement, whose ceilings are around 90” high, and ended up having to take the ... MoreThere’s a lot to like about the Epson LS800.

At 27.4” wide x 6.2” tall x 13.4” deep it fits on my IKEA BESTA stand, but takes up a good amount of the top space. I set it up in my basement, whose ceilings are around 90” high, and ended up having to take the legs off my stand so I could put my screen at a reasonable height. Something to keep in mind when you’re planning for this. Getting my soundbar setup with this was also a challenge as there was not enough room on my TV stand for both the soundbar and the projector to sit. I ended up mounting the soundbar on the wall underneath the screen and while it can interfere slightly with the projector beam, it can be corrected using the software.Epson offers ALR screens to pair with the LS800, but they start at $2K for a 100” screen, making the cost of a complete setup from Epson around $5500. Since I was setting this up in my basement where I could control the lighting I chose to go with a more basic screen from Silver Ticket Products using a gray material instead of white for better contrast, though I found while getting the projector setup that the large bezels prevented the projector from hitting the bottom half inch of the screen material. Not a huge deal, but if you’re looking at screens for this I’d recommend looking for something with a low profile frame.Once I had the projector and my screen placed I turned it on and started adjusting the image. The projector has a knob at the front that allows you to adjust the angle of the image to raise it up if needed and the front feet are adjustable to correct any tilt in the image. It’s best if you can keep the projector as flat as possible on your surface and position your screen accordingly as using the knob to increase the angle introduces a keystone effect that needs to be corrected in software. The lens zoom adjustments are all digital rather than mechanical on other traditional projectors, so correcting a bad image does mean you’re throwing away some of your resolution. I used Epson’s onscreen menu to correct my screen corners and ended up pulling the projector far enough away from the wall that the screen went slightly beyond all 4 corners per Epson’s instructions. There was also another way to correct the screen with an app, but I didn’t use that. The onscreen method works really well and is very intuitive to use. I was able to get a nice square image with very little effort.The LS800 advertises “4K PRO-UHD Resolution”, but the native resolution is 1080p and Epson uses a pixel shifting technology to achieve a 4K output from there. I know this has its detractors and you’ll often hear it referred to as “faux-K”, but on my 100” screen everything looked plenty sharp to me and 4K content looks suitably high-res. Watching higher resolution streaming shows and lower resolution TV broadcasts was a great experience on the LS800.The image on my gray screen material is very bright and looks great even with some lights on. Both SDR and HDR content look fantastic You get 3 HDMI ports, one of which supports ARC and another is a dedicated gaming input. The HDMI inputs are only 2.0, so no 4K/120, VRR, or ALLM, though 1080p/120 is on the table. The ARC port is also NOT eARC, which is another disappointing omission. I wish Epson had found a way to include this and the more gaming-centric features in the LS800 especially because its gaming capabilities are one of the selling points. Despite the omission of those items, gaming on my Xbox Series X was a good experience and I didn’t notice any input lag while playing on it.The LS800 comes with Android TV built in, which was exciting to me since I regularly use a Chromecast with Google TV on my other TV, but it’s an older version of the software. Frustratingly, Netflix is not available to download on Epson’s implementation of Android TV. I don’t know why this is, maybe some kind of licensing issue, but it’s annoying for sure. On top of that, Android TV will only output 2 channel stereo sound even if you have a 5.1 system hooked up to the ARC port, so I would recommend bringing your own streaming device. I have primarily been using my Xbox.I was excited to test the built-in speaker on the LS800 as it looks very substantial and the Yamaha branding was promising, but I came away disappointed. It certainly sounds better than most TV speakers do, but given the size of the front speaker grill I was expecting something approaching a compact soundbar in quality and it doesn’t get there. I was going to stick with my Samsung soundbar setup regardless and I imagine most people considering this projector will also have a dedicated sound setup.I think the LS800 is a great short throw projector with just a few disappointing omissions. Most of the worst qualities can be solved by adding an external receiver/sound system and a separate streaming device. A projector is still the most economical way to get a screen larger than 85” and this is a great option if you don’t want to mess around with ceiling brackets, junction boxes, and long HDMI cables and still want a high quality image.
The projector itself is rather large (27x13x6) and not likely something you’ll easily hide/integrate into your decor. That said, Epson did make an effort to make sure it was as appealing as possible. If you have a semi-dedicated movie/TV room, it’ll fit right in, but the sheer size may look a tad out of place in your living room.Setup is pretty easy, especially since you only have to place the unit a few inches away from the wall, unlike traditional projectors. With a traditional projector, it can be a challenge to find that ‘sweet spot’ where the projector is far enough away to project a decent sized display - you won’t have that issue with this one; put it on a table right next to the wall & you’re pretty much ready to go.The display size can go anywhere from ...

Even at 150 inches, the picture quality is impressive and will absolutely take your movie/sports watching to another level! Brightness is amazing in a darkened room and more than acceptable in an average sunlit room. I had no issues at all watching day games. Colors are good and, if you’re just projecting to your wall, can be tuned to compensate for the paint color of your wall via the settings menu. I was surprised at how much of a difference that made.The built-in Yamaha sound was surprisingly good. Obviously it can’t compete with a quality external system that has actual surround speakers and a sub, but it’ll work just fine for sports and general TV watching. Fortunately, if you do have an external sound system, the projector has an optical output so you can easily connect to it.It has built-in Android TV, so you should be able to stream from (almost) any streaming provider around. One VERY notable exception is Netflix. It completely baffles me why you can’t get Netflix on his projector. I know it isn’t an Android TV thing, as I had no trouble finding Netflix on my other Android TV devices, so I’m not sure what the issue is. I can only surmise that there’s some corporate bickering between Epson & Netflix. Whatever it is, they should work it out ASAP, because having to connect another streaming device to this projector JUST to watch Netflix is disappointing. Five stars if it weren’t for the lack of Netflix.Aside from the Netflix issue, it’s really hard not to love this projector. It seems a little pricey, but the picture quality, enormous display size, and flexibility of the ultra short throw are worth it.
I upgraded from the Optoma CinemaX P2 and i have not second guessed my decision, the LS800 is an upgrade in many ways. The short throw capability is amazing, I was able to push the projector closer to the wall by 8 inches and still retain the 105" screen. I am able to make the media center look cleaner by pushing the media cabinet closer to the wall which i love. The quality of the build looks good, the matte black finish and the black cloth look good and doesn't draw attention while watching a movie. The light off the screen does not bounce off the matte black finish. The adjustable tripod placement of the legs make it easy to level and adjust.The setup is very simple, much simpler than my old projector.

The Epson App adjusts the size to your projection screen by taking a few pictures and connecting to your projector thru wifi. Overall the setup took 15 minutes.The manual focus is pretty precise, easier than the automatic focus because sometimes i notice the auto focus does not get the images crisp.The image is bright at 4000 lumens and is very watchable in a moderately lit room with sunlight but it looks amazing in a darker room. I watch it in a dark setting as i only use the projector when i want a movie theater experience.The remote is very easy to operate and has easy to access bright setting buttons which come in handy and its pretty intuitive.The [projector comes loaded with apps and you can download more after signing onto your google account but i didn't really explore that option because i sue the amazon firestick as my hub. The setting menu is not as adjustable as my previous projector but it isn't necessary because i adjsuted the color setting and picture setting once and didn't mess with them after since the initial setup. It's simple , basic and pretty all you need. No need to over complicate the menu settings.Overall a very modern, sleek looking projector that provides a bright vivid picture. It is very simple to setup and enjoy quickly.
First off, I specifically chose this UST projector for its low latency Gaming Mode; happy to report it did not disappoint. With the gaming specific HDMI input (there are 2 normal and 1 gaming inputs), latency was almost as low as gaming modes on an actual TV. If you are a pro-gamer (or if you only play FPS) you might still be disappointed by the ~20ms delay, however for us commoners this projector can handle fast paced games like FFXVI/SFVI & precision games like Elden Ring without any issue, and this is coming from someone used to OLED TV’s gaming mode. Playing AC6 on this was an experience smaller TVs and monitors cannot compare against.Down side, of course, is the price. Just buying this projector alone will not be enough to get the 100% experience. You will ...

Playing AC6 on this was an experience smaller TVs and monitors cannot compare against.Down side, of course, is the price. Just buying this projector alone will not be enough to get the 100% experience. You will also need to splurge for a quality UST ALR screen to truly enjoy it. The image adjustment options are quite limited, but I think only the most picky of videophile will be bothered by that. Most people (target audience for this product) should be very impressed by what they see. At about 70% brightness the fan is silent, at 100% brightness the fan is audible, sort of like a quiet bathroom fan or an air purifier running on medium setting: definitely there, but easily covered up by the speaker sounds.I have it sitting about 10” (measured from lens’ glass) away from my screen for about a 100” image (it can go larger, I had to reduce the image size manually to fit my space) and had zero issues streaming videos through an Apple TV; the contents were sharp and vibrant, as long as your source material is good. If you try to watch SD or 720P stuff, they will look horrible when blown up: garbage in, garbage out. On that note, a few games on PS5 looked very soft (mostly the PS4 ones without true 4K support) because of the limitations of the older console; try a PS5 game (or a PC game) rendering at native 4K with max graphical settings and the image quality will be night and day.Definitely a gaming friendly UST projector, not that there are many of them around to begin with.
This is both my first short throw and laser projector. I've owned a few traditional projectors in the past, and while great for a large picture, they are often inconvenient to wire up and really only bright enough for evening/night viewing or in very light controlled rooms. This EpiqVision projector solves those two problems by mounting just below the screen close to the rest of the home theater equipment and being amazingly bright. Even with a suboptimal screen, open windows, and room lights on you can still see what's happening on screen. Is this as bright as my 85" QLED? No, but it can produce a considerably larger picture and if you are in a darker setting it's way more than bright enough. Even with lights on I can comfortably watch a game or have a lightshow to ...

No, but it can produce a considerably larger picture and if you are in a darker setting it's way more than bright enough. Even with lights on I can comfortably watch a game or have a lightshow to music in the background when guests are over. The only caveat with this projector, or any ultra short throw for that matter, is that it is very dependent on the type of screen used. Anything short of a tensioned retractable or fixed frame screen will result in very curved lines and shadows in the image. This is caused by the extreme angle the light is projected from and any waves, creases, or wrinkles will be amplified. Epson does their best to combat this and even has an app that will automatically adjust the screen dimensions using the camera on your smartphone, but it's still a major consideration. My portable screen isn't fantastic for use with this projector but it gets the job done for now. There are special screens made specifically for this type of projector that promise to increase contrast and image brightness by rejecting ambient light from above the screen. I have not been able to test one out yet, though it is on my list to try. This projector will mainly be used for movie nights in the backyard or in the pool. That means that I'll be using the built-in speakers more often than not for simplicity and they actually work surprisingly well. Not quite as well as a dedicated soundbar or a speaker system but it easily has enough volume for everyone in the backyard to hear the movie. I'm very happy with this projector as it's easily the best that I've owned and can rival many of the large format TVs that I've seen.
I really wanted to like this projector, I've had it for about 4 months now and it has not been a positive, issue free experience.this projector is plagued with sound issues, sound cuts out or it doesn't sync with my sound bar. Even a different sound bar has the same effect. The projector sort of forces you to use the included speakers and although they are decent, I have a surround system for a better experience, however I've spent more time troubleshooting and restarting that literally makes this projector worth much less than $3500. to summarize, I have a sound bar and the sound cuts out, or switches from sound bar mode to projector only sound mode, the only fix is to restart, or to keep switching inputs until it fixes itself.Picture quality is good if you ...

Grey color and grey color patterns also displays tons of noise, it doesn't matter if I'm on Apple TV, Paramount Plus, Netflix (streaming to my chromecast) or Hulu, it doesn't matter what app I have running, tons of noise is displayed during certain scenes. Terrible experience in my opinion, for $3500, this is a slap on the face.This is the one that hurts me the most, Game input (HDMI 3) is the worse idea they could have come up with, separating the inputs to have a specific input for gaming creates tons of issues. When I turn on my PS5, the projector turns on automatically, and switches to the HDMI 3 (Game input), however, the sound doesn't work right away, my sound bar doesn't work with this input either. I have to back out to the Home menu, press the volume up to "wake up" the volume and then switch back to the game input, extremely annoying and a terrible user interface. The picture quality also drops tremendously during game mode and you have to have a dedicated picture setting that would reduce the noise and display the right quality, however, your picture settings DO NOT work when you are using the HDMI 3 (Game Input) , you have to once again, go back to the home menu, by pressing the home button on the remote, change your picture settings then go back to the HDMI 3, I'm a hardcore gamer, I bought this for the gaming usability and low latency while playing, but to be honest, I'm thinking about returning this projector just for the terrible usability while gaming, extremely difficult to navigate and troubleshoot. the issues are constant, everyday I'm switching picture settings, so I can get the right picture for gaming or watching movies, everyday im restarting and muting the soundbar back and forth so I can finally get the sound synced, everyday I'm seeing large amounts of noise with grey colors. everyday I'm going from the game input to the home menu and back, just so I can change picture settingsReally, do yourself a favor and spend a bit more and go for an LG or samsung or take a gamble with a different brand.I've already contacted Epson about all these issues, their response? just switch input modes so you can manipulate the sound and the picture settings, they basically told me this is how it was design. Very poor response from them and very poor user experience. You have been warned.
First of all let’s get something out of the way. This is a massive projector and takes up more space than any other projector I’ve used from a width standpoint. I’ll include a picture in the review that uses an Apple TV remote as a frame of reference for the size. That said it’s this big because it packs in a lot of quality and the ability to project with 4000 lumens in 4K at 10-bit HDR is mind blowing especially with how close you can place it to the screen. My last ultra short throw still required a good 2 feet from the screen so I felt like I had a floating piece of furniture in the room. In this case you’re much more likely to be able to use a standard media hutch and place it a couple inches away as long as the shelf or hutch has enough depth.Couple of items ...

In this case you’re much more likely to be able to use a standard media hutch and place it a couple inches away as long as the shelf or hutch has enough depth.Couple of items of note: you definitely want a tensioned screen. Using this with a floating screen or other options is problematic as the light is projected a such a high angle that it’ll basically emphasize any wrinkles or waves in the screen. Setup is fairly simple as you connect to wireless right away and then have your alignment screen projected. The Yamaha sound built in is surprisingly good for a projector and no doubt adds to that width requirement. Overall it’s super quiet compared to my other projectors and the warmth generated is on the much lower side in comparison. Due to the extreme Lumen availability it works well in rooms without any light rejection so allows you the flexibility to place this in locations where you might have preferred a TV before. The smart TV interface is Android and felt snappy enough that I feel you could get by with the onboard system but as always I prefer an external unit just because it takes away from the load on the projector and allows you to use the best item for the best purpose.
