- White Brightness (ISO): 4000 lumens (Measurement of the device's white light output measured in accordance with standards established by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). The more lumens, the brighter the output. In large and/or well-lit environments, such as auditoriums or rooms with plenty of natural light, a higher brightness improves the quality of the projected image.)

Standard throw projectors typically need to be at least 6 feet away while short throw and ultra short throw projectors can be placed closer to the screen for use in smaller rooms.)
- Portability: Fixed (Fixed projectors are ideal when creating an authentic theater atmosphere in your home. Often designed to stay in one place they may require significant recalibration if moved. Portable projectors, weighing around 5 pounds, are easy to move, but will still require set-up calibration and often have technology to reduce the complexity. Ultra-portable projectors are very light, often battery-powered, and ideal for on-the-go use.)

Capable mid-price range 4K projector
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.
