Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great projector. It does sit a little farther from the wall than I like but overall picture quality is great. It seems even better when I use my Apple TV 4K. I would give 5 stars if Netflix was available. Switching to Apple TV sometimes affects the sound since I’m using ARC and requires me to restart the projector. Also recommend connecting sound to drown out the fan noise.

I received this unit and a week later the network card stopped working. before the issue, it was awesome the video on a fixed screen was pristine and once I was able to align the video I got a 120" HD TV. The other issue is I used a firestick 4K and it was not as clear. The firestick played but had bad video lag. I did call support they had checked everything then told me to do an exchange at Best buy for a replacement.

Love it! Such a clear and bright picture you can watch a dark scary movie during the day in a well lit room and the sound quality is amazing, and not having to worry about people walking in front of it during a movie makes it even more enjoyable!

I bought this projector replace my living TV and it is nothing short of amaziing! The color and contrast is amazing compared to another UST projector I previously had. Once I turn on the projector I boxed uo the other one and returned it immediately. The fan is little noisey of the highest light setting but nothing too loud that will disturb the experience especially once the audio is playing. I highly recommend the UST as it the best one I found in my research that was laser and had a under $2k price point!

It is amazing beautiful color great sound system and built-in apps as well Bluetooth capabilities so you can even use your own surround system great pictures quality im so happy i chose to go with rhe epson 300 it is a must have no more blocking the picture from my kids walking by oh boy am im happy

We have owned this projector for 6months. I have to tell you for the money , no disappointments here. The picture is super crisp and clean. I am amazed with the sound quality that it puts out. Most devices need to have an alternate sound source but with this you will be happy with the volume controle and the sound quality throughout a room. With a easy set up it is just a plug and play if you have an internate connection. We use it indoor and outdoor . Even with light polution the pictur is sharp. This is a great investment.

The quality of picture and sound is decent even without a screen. The mobility is hard to beat. I have been moving this new toy around the apartment for different occasions in the past two weeks. And I bought Samsung and optimo and non can beat this Epson and it's bright and sharp with 2600lumes. Plus android tv and can use same remote for FireTV and Epson. TBH I will probably never buy another TV, moving forward. Good job, Epson!

Great projector for bedroom or smaller scale home theater room Upgraded from the Vankyo for my room and it’s much more quiet. You can’t hear it if you’re playing something to be honest. A little on the high side but projectors are expensive regardless. If you want to upgrade your viewing experience, it’s great

Great product! Amazing color even in a room with a skylight. Projected on wall and it looks great.

Love it the quality the picture! I had a small one but this one is the best I will recommend it!

best money investment beautiful images and color good choice

I LOVE THIS PROJECTOR! It has changed my entire outdoor experience and projects not only an amazing image, but the sounds is great.

Amazing projector with or without the indoor lights. Not the best with direct sunlight but proper shading from the blinds will do the trick. To reach the 120 inches viewing my projector is about 13 inches away from the wall. I bought a 120 inches projection screen online to really appreciate the feature. Kids and wife approved and for the price this is an excellent option if you want to go bigger than 85 inches led tv.

good product good image quality at an affordable price

It started off great but im not sure if there is a issue with just my device. I have an Amazon cube hooked up to it and sometimes when i switch inputs all i get is audio. It will also freeze and and not load some apps (Netflix). Picture quality is good, but i used the recommended guidelines for the 120 inch screen and even with cornerstone adjustments its still a little off. I have total tech care from best buy and they couldnt get it accurate either and credited me for the visit.

Love it. High quality, perfect for movie nights. So satisfied!

Very Bright 3600 L great picture on 110” alr screen. Not 4K new Epson L800 is a 4K version of this design. I have two of 300s that I use for work and the bulk of the continent is 1082 4K would’ve been a waste but for home theater I’d prefer the 4K version.

The Epson Epiqvision Ultra LS300 is Epson’s latest Ultra Short Throw (UST) 1080p projector. This is my first time setting up and using a UST projector – I have only ever installed or used long throw projectors. I wasn’t too familiar with the needs for a UST projector so I spent a decent amount of time and research to get myself acquainted with the machine. To start off the LS300 is Epson’s 1080p UST offering – the LS500 is the 4K offering and comes in at a much higher price point. The LS300 comes loaded with Android TV, Chromecast, and Google Assistant in the remote. Also onboard is a 2.1 Yamaha tuned sound system. The supported screen sizes range from 70” all the way up to 120” – keep in mind 1080p viewing distances for screen size are roughly 9ft+ for 70” and 16ft+ for 120”. Any closer than that and you will start discerning some pixilation and the image looses its smoothness. The unit itself is bigger than I expected – a full 16” deep. I settled on a 92” screen - the manual tells me the distance I need have between the projector and screen is around 8”. That means this sits around 2’ away from the wall, which is further out than I expected. There isn’t a network port so all connections are over Wi-Fi. There are 2 HDMI ports for connecting external devices – HDMI 2 carries the ARC feature, so use this port if you are connecting to an AVR. The LS300 can accept 4K sources but will only display 1080p. I assume this has to do with HDR content being tied up with 4K sources, so this way the projector would retain the HDR but ditch the higher res. Not a bad solution at all if that’s the reasoning (HDR is more noticeable than the bump to 4K). This is tabletop only – there are no ceiling mount provisions. The technology behind the LS300 is the use of laser projection with their 3-chip LCD design. This technology has been around for awhile and is the main competitor to DLP projectors. Each design has their advantages. 3LCD designs tend to have higher brightness levels, more compact, less heat, quieter (fans don’t run as much), no image degradation over bulb life, and have no bulbs to replace. The downsides come into play with screen versatility, color range, and if the 3LCD chip dies you can’t replace it – unlike replacing the bulb in a DLP unit. I started out initially by researching what screen to use. For UST projectors you cannot simply project onto a painted wall or simple pull-down screen like you would with a long throw projector. Instead you need to have a screen that is stretched tight with no wrinkles or creases. The ideal screen for a UST is a specially made UST-ALR (Ambient Light Rejecting) material. These screens are pretty expensive and are probably above the budget for most – Best Buy sells an Optoma 100” UST-ALR screen for 700. These screens are designed to accept the light from the angle of a UST and reject the light from other angels. Screen material selection is heavily dependent on your room and use case. If you have the ability to completely darken or reduce ambient light then you likely don’t need to spend the extra money on a UST-ALR. For me I have a mixed use room with overhead can lights, but limited/nonexistent outdoor light. The can lights can be turned off to have a completely darkened room, but not always – looking to add dimmers or dimmable smart bulbs to improve my space a bit in case some light is needed. The projector brightness also plays a part in this as well. The LS300 is very bright at 3600nits and likely doesn’t need a screen with any extra reflection gain (1.1 or higher). I started out getting a screen material sample kit from Carl’s Place (an outfit that sells the raw material to build your own screen). I initially leaned towards a gray screen due to the use of overhead lighting, but I wanted to confirm. I included a picture of my mashed together sample screen so I could see different screen types side by side. Materials sampled – FlexiGray (top-left and top-center-left), UltraGray (top-center-right), ProGray (top-right), FlexiWhite (middle-left and middle-center-left), UltraWhite (middle-center-right), ProWhite (center-right), Basic ALR (bottom-left and bottom-center-left), and blackout cloth (bottom-center-right). In all lighting conditions the FlexiGray looked the best – it’s a stretchy and lightly textured material. The FlexiWhite looked a bit better/brighter in a fully darkened room, but suffered a bit in a brighter room. Also, it brightened some scenes up almost too much and made them seem washed out. One thing to consider is the reflection up onto the ceiling with a UST – gray material reflects less than white. This reflection can act like a soft overhead light in scenes that have really dark and really bright elements together. My room has a shorter ceiling so the largest I could go was a 92” screen (4’x7’). I found a screen from Silver Ticket Products (STR-16992-G) that fit my needs, was inexpensive, nice finished black bordered frame, and the right material type (very similar to the FlexiGray I tested) for my room/use case (1.0 gain matte gray). Getting started with the LS300 was fairly straightforward. Setup was really easy and only took about 5-10 minutes to get it updated and apps downloaded. I added my Hulu, Disney+, and HBOMax accounts with ease. Streaming on the projector was quick enough, and the apps moved swiftly without any lag. Using the built in Chromecast I could cast from my phone to the screen with ease. Getting the screen in the right position was a bit tricky though. The projector has adjustable rear feet but the front foot is fixed. The first time putting the screen on the wall we ended up being 2 inches low – it was actually pretty hard to gauge where it needed to go with just 2 people doing the work. If I had a 3rd person helping then 2 of us could hold the screen while the other person dialed in the projector settings, and marked the mount position. The couple extra holes didn’t bother me since I’m in the middle of a basement renovation and have the bottom of the wall ripped out. My advice is to overshoot your screen size a bit and then use the image size adjustment to get the screen dimensions dialed in. Out of the box I didn’t have to adjust much though. The focus was pretty close – had to nudge it a smidge, but it wasn’t off by much. The default screen setting for me was Vivid. This looked pretty good in all lighting conditions, so I was happy with it. Playing around the settings I found the Dynamic is a bit better with all the room lights on. This does make the fan kick into high gear since this is maxing out the projector output. Under darker room conditions the Cinema setting looked the best and had the most natural looking colors. It’s a toss up though depending on your source sometimes. Image quality and brightness was excellent though. My GF and I were thoroughly impressed by how good it looked even with all the lights on. We watched a number of different shows from all of the connected streaming services. I felt like Disney+ looked the best – watched the latest Mandalorian episode and it was excellent. The image had good contrast, motion blur was limited so it looked crisp, colors were accurate, and the image was very bright. Combine this all on a 92” screen and it made for an immersive experience. I haven’t had a chance to play any games on it yet, but I am really looking forward to it. The speakers that come with the LS300 are tuned by Yamaha and are supposedly a 2.1 setup that can rival some soundbars. They aren’t lying in that regard. The sound system is quite good for being onboard speakers. There’s a decent little punch of bass and plenty of power to really push a lot of sound. Sound and dialog is pretty crisp at low volumes as well making it ideal for quiet hours. I would say this setup is better than anything you would get out of a flat panel TV, and on par or better than most entry to mid-level soundbars. You can also use the projector as a Bluetooth speaker, which is a nice feature and allows it to serve 2 roles in the room. To fully complete the immersion that the screen size provides, I’m switching over to a 7.1 setup for most viewing, but I will use the onboard for nighttime. Documentation is often something that goes unacknowledged when it is good, but quickly lambasted when its bad. For the LS300 the documentation is worth the look. It is very thorough and goes through every feature, explains what it does, and the best time to use it. I am very tech savvy, but this really helped me since I am new to home theater projectors. The manual also has a really nice chart for screen sizing with regards to positioning the projector. I was able to determine everything I needed for the setup - new entertainment center being the main one due the size and distance requirements. Things that made me scratch my head with this projector – Netflix support and the remote. As of right now Netflix is not available through the Play Store for this device. If its there, I could not find it. Its not a pre-loaded app, it’s not in the suggestions, and it didn’t turn up when I did a search. This is a shame because Netflix is on everything, and its my main streaming platform. I will be connecting an Xbox and other items, so I can get around it, but it would be nice to leave the Xbox off. The other item was the remote – why is it not backlit? The use case for most projectors is a darkened theater type room where light is low. I had to use the light coming from the screen to see the buttons on the remote. Just a silly weakness that could have been avoided. Overall the Epiqvision Ultra LS300 has been great. Image clarity is top notch, setup was easy, and the onboard sound is better than expected. It looks great in all lighting conditions, even with a budget friendly screen. I have had a really good experience using the projector with very few hurdles to overcome.

Incredible. Projector has android tv built in. Speakers sound great, certainly much better than a 4K tv. Picture is bright and I can see during the day. Pretty easy set up. Highly recommend.

I love it! The picture quality is amazing. Way better than expected. The color looks better than my 4K tv. The speaker is pretty loud as well so no need to plug anything else. Syncs with your phone if you want or just download the apps and stream what you want.
