It’s amazing, use it for the PS5 and the color really pops. I set it up with a 16:9 screen
I would recommend this to a friend

This is pure junk. The image is slanted on the right side.
Alao there is a huge desing flaw. You have to use the internal speaker which is junk sound and loud beyond any control. But if you want to use your own, you have to disable the internal speaker which makes this huge icon on the top right corner appear and never goes away and there is no way to disable it.
I wasted $1700 for this junk with desing flaws. I wish I knew this before.

Brand response from Optoma Support
Posted .
Dear Optoma Customer,
We do apologize that you were experiencing this but there is a simple workaround to get the icon off-screen. In order to do that you simply need to head into the projector's main menu and go down to Setup then scroll down to Options and select Infomation Hide and set that to on. This should remove the icon, as for the internal speakers they are there so you have some audio from the start and enough to be heard in an environment like a home theater. For the best experience with a home theater setup, we do recommend using external speakers so you can take advantage of technologies such as surround sound when possible. If you have any further questions, please contact Optoma technical support at 888-289-6786 Monday - Friday 6 AM - 5 PM PST for further assistance.

Dead pixels - bad design - discontinued

This thing is a total piece of crap. I had it for 14 months and I had a dead pixel due to a bad dmd chip. Warranty is only one year long, so I took it to a local repair guy and he messed it up to the point of no return. Shame on me for not sending it to Optoma right away, but they estimated the bill being almost the value of the projector, so I figured it was worth it to try and save the money.
This unit is not even made anymore because optoma knows it is junk. I contacted Optoma and they said they wouldn't do anything for me, I even tried to go through the BBB and Optoma completely ignored my concerns. I will never buy optoma again, you should not buy this unit or buy anyyhung from Optoma, it is cheap junk and you are better off spending a few hundred dollars for a brand like Epson or LG.

PURCHASED, RECEIVED, AND RETURNED AS DEFECTIVE. THE ALL IMPORTANT COOLING FAN DID NOT WORK OUT OF THE BOX! SHIPPED IT BACK TO BEST BUY DAY AFTER IT ARRIVED. CAN'T SAY IF THE PICTURE QUALITY IS GOOD CAUSE IT DID NOT WORK, CAN'T SPEAK TO SOUND CAUSE IT DID NOT WORK. (YOU MIGHT BE SEEING A TREND) THE REVIEWS SEEM GOOD, GUESS REVIEWERS GET WORKING MODELS INSTEAD OF THE DEFECTIVE BEST BUY SOLD ME?!?
