We are a small non-profit organization and we use this projector for screenings and presentations. Pre-pandemic, our gatherings ranged from 15 to 70 people and this projector did the job every time.

I do not like the wireless transmitter design. It sticks out of the back of the projector and seems like it could easily snap off. There had to be a better way to design it. The directions are not well written for people with limited technical abilities. I am a finance guy and not a techy. Once I got it set up it worked well and I am happy with it. A few tweaks and this machine could be outstanding.

We have always used the Epson line of projectors in our church. They are user friendly, and worth the money. Affordable. We love that Best Buy carries these products.

In an era when monitors and TVs are substituting projectors, this machine comes along. It has great resolution and sound. Also you can connect via wifi, which is a plus. Highly recommended.

Great product for the money. If you're looking to purchase a projector for work or play this works for both. Great for professional presentations and to project a film on the garage door for the kids.

I have had this projector for almost two years. It works well and gives you lots of options for projection. The Wifi makes it even better. The Zoom feature comes in handy too!
The only negative is the built in speakers. They are way under powered.

This is a review for the Epson EX5260 Wireless projector that I received free of charge to do a beta test and review. Bottom line, this is a great projector. Setup is easy and self-explanatory. If you really want to dive deep into the menus you can, but I did not find it necessary. I simply plugged it in and turned it on. Every thing look perfect. I love the Wi-Fi connection feature which allows me to connect my laptop, phone, or tablet wirelessly. It also has other connection options such as standard HDMI, USB, and others. I didn’t find much use for the USB connection method and found HDMI to be easiest.
The image quality is great. This is one of the brightest projectors around, without paying thousands of dollars and lugging around a 20 pound unit. Colors are vivd and sharp. The onboard speaker is sufficient for presentations in small conference rooms, but not for large lecture halls or noisy locations. Size and weight is comparable to other projectors. You can certainly find a much smaller projector out there, but it wouldn’t compare to the EX5260. I highly recommend this projector to anyone who wants a reliable, quality projector, with superior image brightness and quality.

The Epson - EX5260 projector is great for projecting power point presentations, excel spreadsheets or charts, and even video. The projector is extremely bright and I noticed that text is very clear when the right adjustments are made to the focus ring.
The projector is very easy to connect to and has a variety of methods to connect. There is a USB-A port, USB-B port, HDMI port, computer port, and a video port all for displaying your material. If you are using all the ports in the projector you can easily switch between source via the buttons on the top of the projector or with the remote control that is included in the package. All video sources I tested were very clear but some were more responsive than others. Using the computer port when connected to a laptop provided lag free response in slideshows and even video. The USB-B port was a bit more laggy but using this port allows for any audio from presentations or videos to play through the projector itself. I would not recommend using USB-B for video because there is a lot of lag. Anything with high bandwidth usage should be used in conjunction with an HDMI port.
The Epson EX5260 also allows wireless connectivity through a wireless receiver that is included in the packaging so don't throw out the box without taking out this receiver first because it is not pre-installed! If you wish to connect your phone or computer wirelessly you simply have to input the receiver into the USB-A port and configure the wireless settings on the projector to either quick or advanced. The Quick setting allows you to smoothly use the Epson iProjection app to easily connect your smartphone for viewing photos, pdf's, webpages, the camera, and even cast your screen through the projector. Casting the screen is not very smooth as there is a delay in response time but it is useful for projecting files that the projector does not automatically support through the app such as PowerPoint. Another thing to note is that if you are using the wireless receiver to connect your smartphone and you decide to connect to the projector's network then you will not have internet access on your mobile device. You will not be able to pull up any material that requires an internet connection unless you connect the projector to a wireless network and the mobile device to that same network. That will grant you access to media files online such as your Google Drive or Microsoft OneDrive.
The audio for the projector does get loud but it is not a great sound so I would recommend using an external device such as dedicated computer speakers from a computer or connecting an audio device to the projector itself via the audio ports. When running sound and video from a computer I did not notice any delays. The only time I noticed sound delays was when I was connected wirelessly through the projection app.
My overall review is a positive one for this projector because it can handle a variety of things someone such as myself needs. The brightness of the projector allows me to showcase clear slideshows even with direct sunlight entering my workplace. I am able to connect multiple media devices to the projector and seamlessly switch from one to the other. I can have a file of a musical score highlighting all of the important key changes on one source and a video rendering on another source of that score to easily move from one to the next.(Note: Split source is not functional on this projector model. You can only view one source at a time). I love being able to move around a room freely with my smartphone in my hand controlling what I am projecting at what particular moment in time. The included remote control also allows for free movement during a slideshow as you can control the slides with the remote for USB-A connections. This projector is just extremely useful for my everyday life in teaching and preparing for school presentations. It is very small and thus very portable. It can easily fit into any regular sized backpack but also comes with a carrying case for ease of transportations and protection from scratches. I am genuinely excited to continue the use of this projector and I know if you decide to pick one up for yourself you won't be disappointed when you're pitching your next idea at the business meeting or simply practicing for your final project in school.

The wireless capability is only miracast enabled so if your device doesn’t have mirascast you can’t use that function. Decent product otherwise.
