    CNETHands-on review · 2023

    An excellent all-round 1080p projector with very accurate, lifelike color and good contrast, with only average brightness and a slightly high price for the resolution.

    Tom's GuideRated 4/5 · Hands-on review

    A well-rounded, good-value projector with strong contrast, decent audio and responsive gaming, though it needs a dark room, has an unusable brightest mode and no smart platform.

    A no-frills 1080p LED projector that does what it does well, with accurate color, good contrast and low lag, earning a Highly Recommended award despite lacking wide color gamut and smart features.

    TechGearLabHands-on review · 2024

    A reasonably priced cinema projector with a crisp picture and quick gaming response, held back by dimness in lit rooms, no smart features and stronger rivals for similar money.

    Projector ReviewsNo printed score · Hands-on review · 2023

    A bright, colourful 1080p LED projector that the reviewer finds punches well above its $999 price, with good contrast, HDR support and easy setup.
