Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great projector, great upgrade from previous, not true 4k but is great for the price.

Happy with the purchase. Easy to adjust picture, focus, sizing and keystone both ways. The picture appears great and i love the interface. All of the research correctly states that this has one of the HDMI inputs occupied by the smart TV. I fell like this is priced appropriately for what you get.

I was wondering why I was only seeing HD titles in Netflix. After I hit the help button, I discovered that the included android TV (sti6110) does not support 4k. So if you are wondering why the picture looks ugly, you need to buy a 4k device like an apple tv.

Feels like I'm at the movie theater. Amazing quality picture and sound is amazing with the Bose system. You must connect a speaker system otherwise very very low volume from the Epson. But other than that picture is great quality!

Works GREAT! This projector is super clear. I am very satisfied.

The Epson Home Cinema 2350 is labeled as a Smart Gaming Projector, and it does work for games with it's low latency mode, making screen lag a non-issue. The Home Cinema 2350 supports 120 Hz refresh for full HD and is capable of 4k resolutions at 60 Hz - low when compared to gaming monitors, but we are talking a big-screen projector here. While there is a lot of marketing trumpeting it's 2,800 lumens of brightness - which is great for a projector, it's a little disappointing in use. You need to play it in low-light conditions, as a moderately lit room makes the colors dull and washed out. Still, gaming on a 120 in projection screen is admittedly pretty cool. If you have the real estate, you can make the screen up to 500 inches! For Home Cinema, the 2350 seems to be more comfortable and can handle this task with quite well. Again, low light is required, where its HD capability allows colors to be vibrant and replicated accurately. The entire picture is sharp, and there's no distortions at the edges of the screen. The Home Cinema 2350 supports Android TV, so you can watch Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, etc. without any other accessories, and supports a large number of apps natively. This feature does take up one of the two available HDMI ports, leaving one to connect an outside device such as a console, PC, or BluRay player. The 2350 comes with two remotes - one for the device and another for.. well, I'm not sure. Some of the controls are duplicated between the two, and it can be a bit confusing. I did have a difficult time getting the image squared on the screen. The 2350 offers a wide range of adjustments, making it a bit easier to get it set up, but while I was able to center the image on the screen, there's a bit of an off center light bleed, which is ever so slightly distracting. It will require some time to see if I can adjust that. I also may be a bit more sensitive to it than others, as several other people didn't notice it until I pointed it out. The 2350 has it's own build-in speaker, which is adequate, but you'll want better sound. Fortunately, with build-in Bluetooth connectivity adding a soundbar takes little effort. Overall, I really like the Home Cinema aspect of the Epson Home Cinema 2350, but while it's capable of decent results when used for gaming, I'm not sure I would make such a big deal about that.

Epson is the king when it comes to home projectors. The new Epson 2350 offers some vast improvements over its previous predecessors. Rather your in the market to build your own theater room or maybe you want something to project the local sports game in the backyard for a Sunday cookout, this projector is almost guaranteed to meet any needs you have. With the added 3 chip lcd technology you can now game on this projector as well at 1080p at 120hz. Out of the box the new Epson 2350 by all accounts appears to be the same design for the most part as its previous predecessors. The projector is light weight and can still be ceiling mounted if your looking to add the unit in a top feature design. What got me very excited about this unit were two things, 3 chip design for better picture and gaming quality, and the added Android smart TV feature. In the past i have owned several Epson projectors and while picture quality was always good you were always limited to how to watch and display movies. Most times i had to either hook up my PC or run a separate third party system such as a Firestick. It is such a breathe of fresh air knowing that the 2350 series now has a Android TV stick as part of the unit. This is a big plus as i feel most people, myself included are starting to get away from cable TV and are now turning to streaming services. You can now stream all your live sports and TV shows directly off the Android app as well as watch all your purchased movies. The new Epson 2350 does allow for 4k streaming at 60hz which combined with a proper black back drop offers Movie Theater like picture quality. Upgraded features have been added allowing you more angles of picture adjustment with vertical adjustments set at +/- 60°. What this does is allow for easier installation given the fact that you have more room for adjustment. Now lets talk briefly about the gaming aspect of this unit as this is something new i've personally have yet to see on a projector. Now yes technically speaking you can game on just about any projector however true gaming experience was always been garbage and input lag was always horrendous. This is were the 3 chip design in my opinion truly shined. Picture quality has vastly improved over all for gaming with colors coming in more vibrant than some TVs on the market. Oviously true blacks are still going to be lacking but the improvement overall to all your RGB colors has made video game immersion now more possible with a projector. You can game up to 500 inches making games such as Mario Kart with four friends alot more fun and entertaining as everyone pretty much gets there own individual big screen square. While input lag has drastically improved, fast pace games such as Call of Duty or Apex are still reaching times of about 20ms of input lag. While this is a vast improvement for sure in the gaming department, the input lag alone is still enough to detour me back to PC gaming. Overall this unit is a big improvement over it previous predecessors, and while picture quality and screen brightness have improved, input lag does set this back a bit from being a primary gaming solution. However the added Android TV feature makes this a almost must have projector for summertime cookouts allowing you to stream live TV for all your sporting events and watch all your favorite movies outside under a well light moon on a dark night. And while the MSRP may be a little steep, considering all that you get from this series it is very well justified. What this really boils down to is what your plans are for this projector. If your looking to break away from the everyday power point presentation feature and are looking for something to liven up the back yard or if your in the market for a home movie theater room, then this unit is a must have. Epson builds quality, and that's something i can personally attest to.

There are home cinema projectors that you can also game with. Usually these have a good picture but have a lot of lag. Then there are some gaming projectors that you can watch home cinema with. In my experience, these projectors have a quicker response, but the picture quality is not as good. With the Epson Home Cinema 2350 4K PRO_UHD Smart Gaming Projector, finally both gaming and high-quality picture have been combined. You have a lot of choices in setting up the 2350. You can place it on a table or shelf. I use the 2350 in a room with no outside ambient light; however, this projector is very bright and can be used in rooms with moderate light. With the vertical and horizontal keystoning, you do not need to be perfectly centered with the screen. Lining up the picture is easy as you can simply adjust each corner to line up just the way you want. The note here is there are advantages to lining up the projector as perfectly as you can. Keystoning may distort or blur part of the image slightly. It isn’t bad, but it is a function of its use. You can mount even the 2350 on the ceiling if you prefer. You will need a mounting bracket. The 2350 uses three screws located on the bottom. The nice thing is also that it does not seem as heavy as some of the other Epson projectors. So once you are placed, you are ready to go. The setup I have is about an 11-foot throw going to a 100-inch screen. It works well. This is not a short throw projector. To give you an idea, at 6-fett you are looking at a max size image of about 63-inch diagonal. At 10-feet, you will get a max picture of about 104 inches. At 18-feet, you could go as large as 186 inches. This would work well showing something outside at night. The first thing that jumped out at me was just how bright the picture was. Even thought this projector is rated at 2800 lumens, it just seems brighter. My old projector had a spec of 3400 lumens, but it just didn’t seem as bright as the 2350. The color is amazing. Greens, blues, and reds are true to their tone. Even the darks are dark for a projector. Even with factory settings, the contrast is crisp. Since this is viewed as a gaming projector, I will start with that performance. First off, no projector is going to be as responsive as a 240-hz monitor with all the bells and whistles. Highly competitive game players will use a monitor anyway. But if you are playing FortNite and enjoying yourself, you will still be competitive. The large screen and immersive gameplay will make up for the 10-15 milliseconds you give up. If you are running the 4K, games like FortNite will run quite smoothly at 60 fps. If you want to run 120 fps, you likely will need to drop to 1080p. This is just as much a function of the game as it is the projector. Most people will not notice this as much. If you decide to take a break from gaming, then the 2350 works beautifully as a home cinema. Integrated into the projector is Android TV. This means you can get a variety of apps like Hulu, Disney, ESPN, VUDU, or insert favorite app that is not Apple. The picture is great. If you do not have a home theater system, the 2350 does have an included 10W speaker. It is good enough to hear the programs, but I would recommend hooking this up to a full surround sound system. There is at least one gotcha that comes along with the projector. It does have 2 HDMI ports, or at least sort of has 2 ports. There is the main HDMI port which allows you to plug up your gaming system or computer. The second port is already taken up by the Android TV. You can remove the Android unit and plug in your own additional HDMI accessory. There is even a USB power port beside it. However, you do lose the Android TV so I assume most will not do this. The projector is not as loud as I thought it would be. The spec lists it as 36 decibels, but it seemed less to me. Maybe I my last projector was louder by comparison which is why I may notice it as much. The projector does put out quite a bit of heat though. You will want to make sure that wherever you place it that the projector has plenty of ventilation or else it may overheat. Additionally, this could make the room feel a bit warmer than others. So, you may not want to mount it where it is blowing straight on to you. In the end, I was really impressed with the Epson Home Cinema 2350 4k Pro UHD Smart Gaming Projector. It is the closest thing I have found that works for gaming but still has the power to work as a home cinema. The colors are true, and the picture is amazing and bright. The built-in sound is adequate, so I recommend a home theater sound system. However, it is not necessary. I highly recommend the Epson 2350. For those looking to get a strong workhorse projector, this may be the one.

It was just a year or two ago that a projector of this caliber with these specs would run someone around the $2-3k range. Is now the time to pull the trigger for those who have been waiting for a more affordable option to perhaps increase their movie viewing experience and screen size? My answer is a definite YES after using a high-end EPSON projector in our movie room for movies and shows, but mainly for gaming on a 120” screen, over the past 3-4 years. With the new EPSON Home Cinema 2350 4K Pro-UHD Smart Gaming Projector, I can now get an even better picture, performance, with built in apps for less than half of what I paid for my last projector. Out of the box, the projector was about half the size of my last projector and very simple to set up. The new 2350 looks similar to most of EPSON’s previous models with it’s typical matte white finish which usually blends well with most ceiling or wall mounts, two HDMI inputs, a USB-A port and Aux Out on the back, projector lens on the front and buttons on the top. Strangely the projector comes with two remote controls; one for the projector itself and the other for the included streaming stick that it occupying both the HDMI 2 input and USB-A port upon delivery. This can be removed and replaced with any other streaming device or HDMI device by removing the cover on the back of the projector. You are able to use the projector remote to control the streaming stick so I haven't found a need yet for the second remote. Once you decide where and how you are going to be installing the projector, whether it be a permanent mount or simply setting it on a surface, you will want to adjust the focus and size of the screen. You can then use the settings to tweak on any other video or audio settings which you will more than likely have to do to ensure the picture is displayed correctly. The projector conveniently does have Bluetooth for external audio devices which is convenient if you prefer not to run wires for any external audio equipment; definitely a welcome addition for me compared to my last projector that did not have Bluetooth. Upon installation and initial set up of the projector, you can connect it to a local Wi-Fi for streaming services and updates and also log into any of the streaming services such as Google, Amazon, Netflix, HULU, Disney +, etc. After streaming several shows and movies and hooking my gaming systems up to the projector, the 4K UHD picture looks amazing and the 2800 lumens definitely have enough light for most dark area set ups even with some light sources around. Being that I use mine 95% of the time for gaming, the 120 Hz refresh rate and low latency mode are definite must haves as you’ll notice less screen drag immediately. There is a 10 watt speaker built into the projector but I would suggest at least using a Bluetooth speaker, headphones or using the Auxiliary output on the rear of the projector for better sound. Overall, you really can’t ask for a better option from a very reputable company that has a vested interest in projectors at this price point. I would recommend it to anyone in the market for a projector with these incredible specs in a relatively small and affordable option.

The Epson - Home Cinema 2350 is all you will need for all of your streaming, fun gaming, satellite or cable viewing or Blue Ray disc watching. This 4K UHD smart gaming projector will definitely replace my HD television when it dies. The unboxing and setup is pretty straightforward. Plug it in, pair your remotes and connect to your WIFI. Now you are ready to watch your favorite streaming services that are already loaded on to the Android TV home page. I also went into the app store and downloaded some of my favorite apps like NFL Sunday Ticket, and NBA Courtside. There are hundreds of other apps to download. Now you are ready to plug all your devices into the Epson - Home Cinema 2350 except that there is only 1 HDMI port available. If you are mounting this projector in your entertainment room you will need a 4K HDMI switch that will allow you to connect multiple units at 1 time. If your preference is to move the projector from room to room or outside for movie night then the single HDMI port is just fine. The picture from the Epson - Home Cinema 2350 in a dark room is movie theater like. the colors are vibrant and lifelike, the black is very deep and rich not washed out or dull and the whole picture is very bright and clear. Watching 4K shows and movies from Netflix is a great experience. Even in a dimly lit or bright from outside light room the picture still shows up pretty well. As far as gaming the Epson - Home Cinema 2350 is great to use for some family night gaming. It does boast a 120 FPS and under 20MS lag time but when put to the test by the true gamers in the family, my kids, they found playing games like Call of Duty and other FPS games were better at 1080p then in 4K and they lag time to be just ok. Their main complaint is that the picture is just to big to play competitive FPS games because they actually had to move their heads to see the whole screen causing them to be a fraction of a second to late to hit targets or hide from incoming shots. They prefer to play these games on a smaller screen to get a faster reaction time. BUT, family game nights playing Mario Kart, and Mario Party were a blast playing on an 90 inch screen from the Epson - Home Cinema 2350. The sound from the projector itself is just ok. It sounded a little tinny like it was coming out of a metal box. But no-one will use the speaker from the unit. At the very least you can pair a portable Bluetooth speaker and put in above or below the screen for a better sound. And at best you can connect to a sound bar in your media room for surround sound results. I can't wait to do away with my smart TV and mount this in my entertainment room with a retractable screen for hours of streaming, sports watching and gaming. I highly recommend the Epson - Home Cinema 2350 4K PRO-UHD Smart Gaming Projector with Android TV.

I found this EPSON home cinema 2350 Pro-UHD to work great with movies be bright and sharp which in my opinion that's what you would want the most. Now the rest of the advertising being a smart gaming projector would probably lead most of us to some higher expectations. So out the box i found this projector to be lightweight with some level adjustments that they are very welcomed. Not so sure about the focus slider tough no complains it works but it's just very touchy. Another slider but a bit sturdier is the image size and the position of the screen that's done by rotating wheel. Hdmi ports again technically you have 2 but you get to use only one. The other one being used by the Android tv that makes this projector a smart one. When comes to brightness and sharpness this is where the projector really shines as well the color reproduction is GREAT. I feel that EPSON should've focused their marketing in that direction better. The projector comes with a built in speaker that does it's job but when paired to my surround system thru HDMI Arc port i was able to fully get the HomeCinema experience. One really drawback to me is the fact that on the highest settings the fan is noisy and i so wish it wasn't there. But if i reduce the brightness is manageable.

The 2350 4K Pro has a reasonably lightweight for a projector. It has a light plastic outer case which helps with the weight. With the size and weight, it will be easy for someone to move it from one room to another or even move it outside on the patio. On the bottom are two rear adjustable feet and one front adjustable foot. On the top are 3 adjustments. One for zoom, one for focus, and a keystone adjustment. There are also two buttons on the top, one of which is a the power button. On the back, you have several connections. One of them is the standard power port and HDMI port to name a few. The projector runs Android and has apps and chrome cast built in. You don’t have to have a streaming device connected to the project to run apps like YouTube TV, YouTube, Prime Video, Netflix, etc., you can launch the apps right from the projector. But you do have the option of connecting a streaming device if you prefer. I didn’t have any problems connecting my FireTV Cube to it via the HDMI port. I also didn’t have any lag or buffering issues running the apps installed in Android. The firmware of the projector can be updated. I ran an update which downloaded fast and installed without error. Getting the projector connected to my Wifi router was simple and straight forward and the initial setup of the projector took only a few minutes. I was surprised at how close to true white the color was on things like white text and thumbnails like the Netflix and YouTube icons. I was curious just how it might look on a non-white wall. With no projector screen and pointed at a beige wall, the colors were bright enough that it wasn’t noticeable that it was being projected against a wall that wasn’t white. The speaker is ok. It won’t be as good as a home theatre audio system, but it will work ok for those who don’t have and expensive speaker system. It supports 120Hz refresh rate in HD and supports 4K HDR. I was happy with how clear the 4K video was with this projector. The only complaint I would have is the price being a little higher than I would have expected and occasionally I had an issue with the Epson remote recognizing some buttons being pressed at various times. Overall, this is a good projector, but I would like to see the price a little lower. Other than that, this would be a good projector for gaming or taking out on the patio for Saturday night football.

Having owned several projectors over the past few decades, Epson has had a solid history of putting out a good product. This 4k capable offering met those expectations and will make your movie/event night a memorable one, or could also be used as a primary display for all of your viewing content. Pros: - The picture quality is very impressive. Streaming some Lord of the Rings content in 4k (see photo) during my week of testing provided some breathtaking visuals. Gaming content was also something to behold. You can get up to 120 frames per second with 1080p content and 60 fps in 4k. - Integrated Android TV makes this projector a terrific all-in-one home media device. The set-up process automatically can detect apps that you use within the Google store and offers to install them. I enjoyed the interface quite a bit as it was very intuitive. - Even with some sun coming through my windows, this projector is bright enough to use during the day with curtains closed. Although, I would need to get thicker curtains than the ones I have to get an optimal image. - The Android TV remote pairs nicely over Bluetooth and I love not having to point it directly at the projector like you would with infrared. - While most electronics have a standard 1 year warranty, Epson provides a 2 year warranty on the Home Cinema 2350. That's great piece of mind when you are spending on a premium projector like this one. Cons: - Unless you plan to permanently mount this projector, keep your packaging. It doesn't come with a storage case so if your plan is to pull it out for movie nights and pay per views, you'll want to box to store it away safely in a closet. For the price you pay for this projector, even a basic case would have been appreciated. - I'm not a fan of the included lens protector. It snaps in place easily enough, but seems like it could pop off with even a slight jostle. I prefer projectors that have a sliding door to protect the lens. - Onboard speakers are sufficient if you were to use this as a portable device for sharing presentations with audio. But for long-term home use you will want another option like a soundbar or an A/V receiver.

Moving up from an 83” LCD 4K TV to a 100” screen is a huge deal. To accomplish this feat I needed a projector that could handle that task. That’s where the Epson Home Cinema 2350 4K gaming projector comes in. This is a feature packed Projector that includes Android TV, Two HDMI inputs, (the Android TV takes up one HDMI input), 10-Watt internal speaker, mini jack audio output for external speakers and Bluetooth connectivity for Bluetooth speakers. On the video side this is a 4K projector with HDR10 and 2,800 lumens of brightness. For video gaming there is 120 FPS refresh rate at 1080p resolution. Included in the box are two remote controls. One controls the Projector and the other controls the Android TV. I set the Cinema 2350 up 14 feet from my screen and used the Lens Shift control to size the picture to fit my 100” screen. Once I dialed in the size the next challenge was to focus the picture using a slide control on the top of the projector. I would personally prefer a focus control that is on the lens itself. The slide control does the job but can be a bit touchy. Once I signed into the Android TV and connected to my WI-FI, I was able to stream from my favorite streaming channels using the internal speaker. I connected the HDMI ARC input to my AVR to manage my other devices and Video game. After making some adjustments to the picture settings I was all set to start using the Cinema 2350. Watching sources on such a large screen will make small flaws in the source material more obvious. When viewing UHD Blu Rays, the picture is outstanding with sharp detail and excellent motion handling. Streaming from the latest version of Apple TV and the ROKU HD is also excellent. Fios 4K varied by the content but was fairly good with some visible motion artifacts. Playing games at 1080p the motion lag was excellent at 20ms and the 2350 kept up with ease. I was surprised at how easy it was to move from an 83” TV to a 100” screen. The Cinema 2350 creates that movie theater atmosphere with ease and is something I would recommend to anyone wanting to create a home theater in their home.

For me, the epson home cinema 2350 was a solid upgrade from my cheap $50 projector on amazon. The picture quality is pretty good and the vertical shift and horizontal zoom built in is a very nice feature making it desirable over lower in models. This projector also does a good job at getting bright without having its colors washed out. The colors are good but the contrast could be better, the blacks are more of a blue which can sometimes make the contrast in darker scenes a little dissapointing. I would say the image on this projector compares to a 4k tv from 2014-2017 or so but on a much larger scale. Unfortunatley we are not far from bigger nicer tvs becoming the norm. If you are only doing a 100” screen then i would almost reccomend the TCL 100” Mini LED Tv for $2k-$3k instead which comes with free install through Best Buy. However if you are going bigger than that and or are on a budget than this will be a good option for you. My main issues from this projector stem from Epson’s false advertising of the projectors features. It advertises 4k and HDR! However they really should have some big asterisks by those advertisments. While the projector accepts 4k inputs, what is displayed is not true 4k. (The cheapest native 4k projector is around $5k.) Instead it is two HD panels that sre overlayed and slightly shifted to give the illusion if 4k, while it looks sharper than 1080p it is only have the resolution of 4k. The other issue is that this projector’s hdmi ports are old technology circa 2010. They only acceot 4k HDR signals at 30hz and not 60hz. Now days most things use 60hz as thst has been the standard tv refresh rate for a long time now. In 95% of cases to get hdr you will need to be sending a 1080p hdr signal to the projector and have it upscale it through 4k enhancement. Overall this projector is decent but if you can and or have the extra money i would say its worth spending a little more and getting the Epson 3800, which you can get refurbished through Epson for $1200, with warrenty included. Otherwise if you are like me and just looking for a upgrade from a cheap projector and want a entry level 4k projector then this is a solid option!

My wife purchased this 2350 for me at Christmas from BestBuy, per my asking. Lets first by saying I’m not some techie guy who’s gonna give a buch of numbers you or me don’t understand. Out of bo x setup is straight forward and easy. I ceiling mounted mine, 10’ from the screen with a 98” very crisp, bright and colorful picture. A great improvement over my old Epson. This is as technical as i will get this, i have my lamp set on Normal and picture on cinema. I can sit in my basement with the lights on and the picture is still bright and very watchable. Sound wise i really can’t speak to as i have eArc hooked up to my soundbar. I removed the Android dongle and replaced with a Roku stick 4k a good decision on my part as that frees up HDMI eArc port becomes available.

I recently purchased this projector, and I have to say it exceeded my expectations. The picture quality is crisp, clear, and vibrant, making movies and presentations look professional and immersive. Even in a room with some light, the brightness holds up really well. The setup was quick and user-friendly, and the connectivity options are excellent — it works smoothly with laptops, phones, and streaming devices. The built-in speakers are surprisingly good, though I sometimes connect external speakers for a more cinematic experience. What I appreciate most is how quiet it runs compared to other projectors I’ve owned. It’s compact, easy to carry, and feels like a premium-quality product at a very reasonable price. Overall, this projector combines excellent quality with great functionality, and I’d highly recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable device for both home entertainment and professional use.

With 4K being commonplace, it takes more to stand out in the crowd of home cinema projectors. Epson's 2350 tries it's hat in the "gaming" projector market. Let me start with what you get. Out of the box you get the projector, a power cable, an extra expansion port cover, 1 projector remote, 1 Android remote, and some inserts. So out of the gate, you're greeted with one HDMI. Technically it has two, but one of the HDMI ports is occupied by the Android streaming stick. This is what allows the the projector to be a "smart projector." This is my theory or maybe it genuinely has a wi-fi card built into the motherboard. This I am unsure of. The projector itself is lightweight, and has many of the standard options such as a retractable foot on the front center, two legs in the back that can be adjusted independently to raise the projector's rear. I really appreciate this feature. It's minor, but the ability to adjust the rear's height is a welcome. You can change the focus, the height, the size of the picture, and adjust the horizontal keystone via a slider. So with the Android stick, you're given an entertainment hub. You have the usual suspects of apps such as Netflix, Youtube, etc... You can add more apps and edit your home screen. I'm impressed by little to no lag there is from the time you press the control to when it responds. It's almost instantaneous. So I plugged in my laptop and tried some games. This is where things are somewhat disappointing. In one of the games that I tested, I set the refresh rate high, and set the frames per second to 120. I didn't see it translate any differently from 60 fps on any other monitor. My gaming laptop has a 300hz refresh rate, and it looked smoother than the projector. I didn't see any option on the projector setting that let me control the refresh rate or fps. I tried plugging in my gaming console, and it looked great, but once again, I didn't see how it differed from my gaming monitor. This is where I'm not sold that this is in fact a gaming projector. Don't get me wrong, the projector has a beautiful picture, and you can really go in depth in regards to the picture settings. There's an advance setting where you can really go in and tweak the picture to your liking. The sound is decent for a built in speaker, but once I connected it to my sound system, then the movie/gaming experience felt complete. All in all, it's a great 4K image, HDR, with a lot of options. As a gaming projector, I feel that it is more marketing talk than anything else. I would still recommend it. For the price you effectively get a minimum 125 inch picture.

Excellent picture. Fan would be loud if you don't have a sound system and are only using the speaker on the projector; however, with a system, I don't even notice it. It's fairly large as well which is a bit burdensome but the overall quality makes up for it. Fairly luminescent as well as I can use it with the shades open on cloudy days and have a perfect picture.

Picture quality is really good. Super nice colors. For HDR viewing, the HDR10 setting needs to be adjusted. Default setting is 8, but typically a 4 works well, adds a bit of pop. With projecting hdr though, it’s a source by source adjustment. It just seemed an 8 was too dull for most content. Out of the box, SDR settings seem just right in cinema mode. I’m no expert by any stretch though. This is my second projector. The extra 4K detail is very welcome and a very noticeable upgrade from 1080p. For gaming, it seems great, I didn’t notice any lag, but do your research because it will not take full advantage of ps5 or series x, but I’m fine with that. This is a very bright projector, low lamp mode works for me in dark room, not sure about rooms with ambient light. The black level is not amazing, but this projector doesn’t cost $5,000 either. The vividness of day time scenes is pretty mind blowing though. Dim scenes are just fine too, just no inky blacks for sure. At this price point getting 4K lcd is worth the extra cost. So far I’m happy with purchase. Epson quality is great.
