Customer Ratings & Reviews

This Epson projector has solid overall image quality, a decent set of built-in speakers and the short-throw technology is extremely helpful for room setup. I'm really happy with the projector, but I also have several things I dislike about it too. First, its options for adjusting the height are extremely limited and the adjustable legs are hard to move. Second, the settings menu is clunky and slow to navigate. The projector feels a bit clunky in general and is slow to react to the remote when adjusting volume or switching between feeds. This projector also doesn't support anything over a 60Hz refresh rate, which is also a bit disappointing given the price. And finally, the fan is quite loud on the projector too. We've opted to keep this projector as we really do not want to go back to a standard projector that projects from across the room. We also don't know how susceptible we are to rainbow artifacts, so we don't want to get many of the similar priced competing solutions either. But we do really wish this model was a bit better in its secondary features.

While locked inside like the rest of the world in 2020 our family was watching TV on a small 10-year-old 42” television. It had so many little issues, but we kept using it since it still technically worked, and we spent a lot of money when we bought it. Recently we were told about a new projector that we should get to replace our TV, and I’ll say this much the Epson Ultra LS500 really lives up to the hype. I had no idea that a short throw projector could get a screen so dang big. I am not exactly sure how big the picture is, but I do know that even without a projector screen the picture quality was better than anything I have seen before. This really looks like something that will last us another 10 or more years like our last TV.

I used the projector to watch movies, it has a crystal clear picture as if I'm looking at a smart Tv. It's peacefully quiet and lets off less heat than other projectors I've had in the past. It has a short throw lens so you have put the projector low and inches away from the screen. I was using a 6ft screen and I would recommend using a 8ft screen or larger, but if could have been not adjusting the settings correctly. It comes with a plug-in Epson android stick that you plug into the back slot (HDMI 3), which has a cover for it. You can download all apps just the same as a firestick. I Highly recommend this for your home especially if you have limited space. “This is a review for the Epson EpiqVision Ultra LS500 Short Throw Laser projector that I received free of charge to do a beta test and review.”

This projector is amazing, image is very clear and bright and practically of a short throw projector is unbeatable! Almost as simple as your regular TV with the movies like immersiveness or projector / screen.

Opening the box This projector is absolutely amazing from opening the box to watching movies and/or TV on it. First of all the packaging was set up very nice. When opening the box everything is very well setup up to make it an easy setup. I was able to open one box and had everything I needed for accessories at my hands. Then only needed to put the projector where I needed it to be. Setup The setup was about the easiest setup I think I have ever experienced. Even my non-technological 15 year old daughter (who was helping me set it up) said this is so easy. The directions for setup were step by step and super simple to follow. It comes with a stick almost reminds me of a Firestick and connects directly to my Wi-Fi and no need for extra wires all over the place. It nice that it has a hidden storage for the stick. Then if you decided the apps weren’t enough for you it also have other connections in the front for a gaming system or to hook it up to a computer. It only took me about 15 minutes to fully setup and most of that was entering my password to the Apps I installed. I did end up installing Hulu and Disney+. The Keystone is very nice it gives you a choice of Vertical and horizontal. So even if you did what I did and didn’t center the projector you can just adjust your keystone without worrying about moving your projector. Picture and sound This thing has an amazing picture. I had a smaller projector and screen previously installed, but this has a much larger screen size and I had to use my wall instead of my screen, I couldn’t even see any difference in the quality of the picture, it has such a clean and crisp picture. This projector is awesome! Of course not to forget the sound. Most projector’s come with speakers but they are barely heard or they crackle as soon as you turn them up. I turned these speakers up about half way and the sound was extremely clear and surprisingly loud. We watched a couple of movies on it immediately and this projector is so clear. I love the fact that it’s a short throw projector and you don’t have to worry about any shadows from people walking in front of it. It’s awesome to have a smart projector that connects to my Wi-Fi and no need for any additional computers to watch movies or tv. Cons The only cons I have come across with this projector is I didn’t have it sooner.
