    Blurry focus and data issues mar bright projector
    The Good - this projector is very bright, allowing viewing in brightly lit rooms.The Bad - 4k HDR at 60 fps consistently fails.The Ugly - the focus is uneven, making you choose what is in focus.This opinion is based on testing three units.I purchased one of these units based on the solid reviews. The first unit had massive data corruption on all HDMI ports, leading to flashing, banding, and HDCP issues. The problems were worse on the lower numbered ports. After speaking with the manufacturer, I got a replacement from Amazon. I didn't spend much more time on this one because it was so bad. I replaced all the HDMI cables with Ultra High Speed HDMI Certified cables, tested with shorter runs, and upgraded to a powered certified cable for the longer run.The second unit was much louder, with a distinctly annoying fan. While the data issues were better (no flashing / banding on any port) it consistently failed HDCP checks on HDMI ports 1 and 2. Port 3 worked most of the time, but especially with Disney+ the HDCP check would fail. Rebooting the projector would generally work around this. I hooked up my computer to the projector, and was shocked by how bad the focusing was for text. In a movie you might not notice, but for desktop use it was painful. I was careful to align the projector properly (see the squared up photo). All four corners are in focus, but the center top (ceiling mounted orientation) is out of focus. You can see the difference in the two photos of the browser address bar with my finger shadow to show that it's in focus. I expect all ports to work perfectly with the advertised data rates with no optical issues. I returned this unit as well.The third unit was the best of the three. However, it still had the focusing issues, and still will fail to play Disney+ every few days, requiring a system reset.Summary- While the data rates for 4K HDR at 60fps are incredibly hard to get right, I expect it to consistently work when advertised. It does not.- Pixel perfect optical focusing should be table stakes for any projector. This one fails in that regard.- All three were incredibly bright. 3000 lumens is just fantastic.This projector works fine if you're only going to watch movies at 1080p, but in that case, get a cheaper model.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Great Upgrade
    Reviewed in the United States on September 27, 2023
    Is it perfect - no, but as an upgrade to my 13 year old panasonic ae4000 1080p its a helluva deal. I was very lucky to have a perfect throw distance in my media room (14 feet), as you have VERY little adjustment with this projector. If you can make it work in your space, its a great projector. Much brighter and sharper than my old one, and it has no bulbs to replace. 4k HDR at 60 hz is amazing. The contrast is excellent, and it is super sharp. I went with the 45 as there is no reason to have "smart" features on a projector (my avr and fire stick already have wifi). Its also about half the size of my old one, and I paid half the price (a quarter the cost when you consider inflation). Great upgrade!

    5.0 out of 5 stars Glad I picked this projector! Brightness is great for daytime viewing.
    Reviewed in the United States on September 25, 2023
    All of my pics are from a "light-polluted" room. It's a downstairs den with a large picture window with blinds right behind where I am taking the pics. My main concern was daytime performance since all projectors work very well at night in the dark. At 3,000 ANSI lumens, this projector is just bright enough for great daytime performance. Even with my blinds open, it works great. Washout is not bad enough to prevent enjoyable watching during the brightest hours. I was worried I would need 4,000 lumens, but the 3,000 is good enough (whew). "Enhanced gaming" mode (only on HDMI 1) gives same-as-tv performance with no lag. I am very happy with this projector. It is in a main living room with decent light pollution and works very well. I only wish it had a shorter throw distance, but I was able to get a 105" screen size in my 11 foot deep living room.
