“Is this 4K or 1080p HD, because 4K is in the product model name, but then in the specs, it says it's native resolution is 1080. So which is it?”

From an Engadget review: “A note on pixel shifting: As with other 4K DLP projectors in the budget category (yes, this one technically qualifies), it's equipped with Texas Instrument's XPR DLP chip, which has a native 1080p resolution. However, it uses "pixel shifting" to emit that pixel four times while moving it to the correct position for a 4K image. All that happens in less than 1/60th of a second, meaning it puts as many pixels on the screen in the same amount of time as a 4K native projector. That makes it 4K for all intents and purposes, and visually, it performs nearly as well."
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The Vava projector uses a Texas Instrument's XPR DLP display chip, which has a native 1080p resolution. However, this chip uses "pixel shifting," This means that it tilts each pixel four times each image frame to the correct position to produce a 4K image. All that happens in less than 1/60th of a second, meaning it puts as many pixels on the screen in the same amount of time as a 4K native projector.
