Optoma - UHD38x 4K UHD Projector with High Dynamic Range - White

I decided to give this 4K projector a try as an upgrade from my 12-year old Epson HD projector (paid almost 2X the price of this). Note the attached photos were taken while movie was running, not paused with a Google Pixel 6 Pro phone. First thing for the 4 stars assessment on quality - this projector is much louder and depending on which lamp mode you choose, it is audibly loud even when the projector is over 8 feet away. Secondly on the quality assessment, the light leak from the case is too much, through the heat vent, the lens hood and the around the back. It would be best if this is put into its own box or in a separate projection room. This one is bright (4000 lumens) for sure and as the pics show, it is not so bright as to blow out the fine details and color of the image. Being a DLP projector, some people will see color aberration (rainbowing) especially during fast moving scenes. For me, I am impressed by the color accuracy and proper saturation for HDR10. The first 2 pics from Moulin Rouge is from a HD source upscaled to 4K of the projector. The others are from the 4K HDR10 source for Greatest Showman. It's a good value because it supports 3D with an average 4K image and movies look great especially on our 15 feet wide "screen" of our bedroom wall. Just wish there is a better image adjustment option or mechanism for the centering the lens as our projector stand is built to match the exact middle of that wall. Overall, it is a keeper and other then the noisy operation, I would recommend this to those looking for a 3D capable 4K projector.

I have used Epson projector over 12 years. Now i brought this and using it. The picture clarity and brightness is awesome. I am currently viewing this around 150-160 inch screen on my wall.

This projector replaced my optoma uhd30, awesome upgrade. It's brighter, more options, has a shorter throw,has awesome contrast, and keystone is top notch. Highly recommended
