    Short throw, easy to set up a 200 inch screen on wall. Light is sufficient, 60 inch size works on wall at day time, but for big size, like 200 inch, have to be in dark room. The speaker is good for normal use, like meeting. To watch movie, need connect to a better speaker system.

    Nice projector with a good picture. Was a little disappointed that the advertised zoom function doesnt allow for a larger overall image, just a zoom within the projected image area. Short throw option sounds great, until you realize that at the shortest distance allowed results in a really small image. The image size is 100% dependant on the exact placement of the projector unit.

    Great projector for rooms with ambient light and also for gaming. Setting it up is not as easy as other higher end projectors, but for the price, it's a great projector.

    Stay Away from Open Box

    Awful. I purchased this item as Open Box rated as Excellent with no damage or missing accessories. When received, the projector was poorly packed in the box with no plastic protection. The lens had marks and scratches from the cardboard that surrounded it since no plastic was used. Furthermore, the body of the projector had several scratches as well as what looked like a streak of goo that looked like peanut butter. Furthermore, it was missing the remote and batteries! I had to drive 26 miles to return it. I'm certainly never purchasing Open Box or from Best Buy again.

    Can't endorse this nor can I endorse Best Buy. My unit is likely defective and I'm seeing this about 24 days into ownership. Best Buy's return policy is 15 days which is convenient... for them. Unit has a myriad of problems, takes forever to sync an output via HDMI. Sometimes doesn't know it's in HDR or not and you have to resync to get the image back. Will randomly freeze the image, with whatever I was doing still occurring in the "background" and you have to hit resync to get the image moving again. Will randomly go into "auto off" sequence with a 30 sec countdown. there is seemingly nothing you can do to cancel this countdown either. This is REALLY bad especially when gaming on PS5 or PC during online games that can't be paused. this thing is junk. I'm already having to RMA it after using it for literally less than a month. Eff this unit and eff Best Buy.
