This is my initial review having just set this up the way I want & watching shows today. Will update if things change.
This is an upgrade from my old projector of the same price range. This has everything the other didn't. The old one was my first projector, well call it Bobby. After I got to know Bobby there were some things I wished he had. Better remote, more viewing options, more settings, better interface and so forth. This projector, let's call it Barry. I've just meet Barry and already he has checked alllllll my boxes. Image quality excellent & I'm not one to always notice that but the detail he displays is awesome. Barry has clarity. Bobby was getting burnt out after only a few months. I do use him like a TV for LONG periods of time. Bobby had a speck on his lens I couldn't clean. He was getting more and more burnt out. White was no longer white, the brightness was gone from his lens. Barry, has such a beautiful light, really crisp & completely visible with window open or light on inside. The perfect level. His remote works with my firestick and my sound bar, one remote now, not 3. Barry's remote has convenient buttons to access menu, settings, and source. He is pretty quiet, sounds like a/c running in other room somewhat. Low steady easy to tune out.
All that praise for Barry, he does have a flaw. His auto focus & keystone features don't really work, at least for me. If you have is zoomed in for a smaller projection area and if he is jostled in the slightest the projection goes back to full size. Then you have to go in & zoom it down & whatever else you have tailored to your liking.
I am willing to accept Barry's flaw if he stays bright & crip for a good long while. I will do my part to help keep him from burnout.
