  • 4.0 out of 5 stars Awesome picture! BEWARE totally intended to be ceiling mounted!
Style: HD146X (Latest Model, 3,600 Lumens)
So all in all it is an amazing picture. The added 3D functionality is a nice touch. For the price point this would have 5 stars except for 3 flaws. The first flaw isn’t a big one, but it is annoying: the internal speaker is SUPER quiet. Don’t expect to use it and have it be okay. It’s not loud enough to watch anything. The second flaw is a bit of a bigger issue: it is definitely not a short throw projector. At 15 ft, it falls short of filling a 120” screen with 4:3 ratio. (My indoor auto screen is 4:3). Don’t get me wrong, I’m rearranging my garage to get the extra foot I’m gonna need, but it’s a pain. The biggest sin of them all, however, is the third flaw: this unit is designed to be a ceiling mounted projector so it doesn’t project straight out but rather at and upward (or downward depending on the orientation) so if you plan to use a portable stand like I do, expect to have to put some considerable tilt on your projector. Also a minor gripe I can’t hold against them is that it comes with only one HDMI port. It’s clearly advertised in the specs here so at least they aren’t trying to hide this info. I missed that point so I only gave me to blame. It is, by far, the best picture of any projector I’ve ever owned, though. ... show more

  • 5.0 out of 5 stars Picture looks great...for me. Happy with purchase.
Style: HD243X (3,300 Lumens)
I bought this knowing it is only a native 1080p projector and does not support 4K. It does, but it downgrades it. 4K projectors are still very expensive and not a whole lot of content yet so didn't pull the plug. Most of the reviews on picture quality, features etc. are accurate so i am not going into it. I own a 1080p 46 inch 3d Samsung TV from 2010 that I am using for comparison. So with that in background I am sharing my practical experience to help you decide if you should purchase this or any other HD projector: 1. First this is not a short throw projector. Those are still $1k+ at the time of the review but this does add a disadvantage. Meaning projector has to be 6-7 feet minimum, aka you need a free basement or a really large room that is not frequently used. For this to work, you either have to mount it under ceiling...but again will run into problems running power and HDMI cables. Or on a coffee or side table (my setup) but then you have HDMI and Power cables running along the floor to a power outlet on the wall / receiver. In most homes you have to live it it and can partially cover it up using area rugs. 2. The built in speakers are no fun, so have to connect to a surround sound system. HDMI cable issue as mentioned in #1. you could buy all wireless surround sound speakers and keep the receiver below the projector but you will still have power cable issue....unless you live in a modern home that has power outlets on the floor near by. I have one, but that is still too far away. Wall power point is closer. 3. You need a screen. The size and height of room limits the screen size. I could fit a 100inch screen but it takes up a full wall (I live in east coast city with small rooms, but I do have 10 foot ceiling). Projecting on wall may work if you have a full bare wall (no switches, hvac controllers etc. and willing to paint it white. There is some color correction available if your wall is colored but it will definitely change the picture color. 4. I may be happy with the resolution it because I am still using a 10 year old TV as reference, but it was top of the line (3k+ when it first arrived.) Those with UHD or 4K TVs...your mileage may vary as you have got used to seeing more details and a sharper image. When things are blown up, you tend to notice more defects. 5. If you don't have projector and screen fixed securely to wall you almost always have to re-focus and adjust screen (to correct keystone) every day. Again you get better and faster at it but still is a chore. Even slight movement of screen or projector throws off the focus. Now the positives...these mitigate some of the practical issues mentioned above: 1. This thing is small and very light. you can unplug everything and put it away in 15 seconds. The cables you roll back to wall and/or receiver and you have the room back to normal. 2. If you buy a collapsible screen (even if it is manual) with stand. you can roll it down in 30 seconds. But you cant put away...it is too long, but at least it is along a wall at the bottom. Installing everything back takes a few minutes, you get better and faster with practice. One word of Caution though: Once you get used to seeing movies on the 100+ inch screen it is tough to go back to a 46 inch screen no matter how good it is. So think twice before you leap! ... show more

  • 4.0 out of 5 stars Lots of pixels slowly going out in under 2 years of use
Style: HD146X (Latest Model, 3,600 Lumens)
I watch tv a lot. I’m about 2 years, several pixels have going out slowly from the beginning. It’s a little annoying now when it’s really dark, so beware

  • 4.0 out of 5 stars Overall I'm happy with the Optoma HD143X, but it does have it's flaws!
Style: HD143X (3,000 Lumens)
I bought the HD143X based on all the positive feedback from its predecessor, the HD142X. From everything I could tell the HD143X was "better" and simply an upgraded version of the HD142X. I have an Epson projector as well, which I use outdoors and in an office environment. It was about $550 and it's my only frame of reference. That said, it was designed more for presentations than movies/tv, so I decided to look into other options more suitable for that type of viewing. I have the HD143X ceiling mounted, coupled with a Silver Ticket Productions 110" white non acoustic screen, and also coupled with an Onkyo receiver and 5.1 Energy Take Classic Speakers. One thing I will point out is your indoor projector setup is only as good as your weakest link, so plan on a good screen and good sound otherwise you're probably not going to be happy. Planning to use the projector's internal speaker or projecting onto a makeshift screen is like driving a Ferrari on a dirt road...you have all that horsepower and refinement but you just won't be able to put it to good use. Overall I'm happy with the HD143X, but it does have it's flaws. Good: - It projects a very clear image. It's not as clear as my 59" 1080p TV, but I didn't want to spring for a 4K projector just yet. I'm more finnicky than most but not a complete videophile, so if I'm happy with it I'd guess that covers about 90% of people out there who would agree. The other 10% won't be happy with anything other than a 4K setup. - The noise from the fan is manageable. - Sitting beneath the projector the heat it puts out is not noticeable. - The brightness is adequate with all the lights on. Bad - There is a light "outline" around the entire outer edge, a few inches wide depending on the projection size. This is taken care of by my fixed screen, which absorbs it and makes it not noticeable so for me this is NOT an issue. However, if you're NOT going to use a fixed screen to absorb light around the edges consider this a DEALBREAKER. Trust me you will be very annoyed by this, and it's apparently something that's innate to the DLP chip they chose. From a little research this appears to be a difference between the HD142X, which is just coming to light now and likely the reason for the lower rating you're seeing on the HD143X. - There are 3 legs on the projector, two are adjustable and one is just part of the plastic...it's fixed. Don't ask me why this is the case, but if you wanted to simply rest this on a table that makes it pretty annoying. - The projector feels a bit "cheap" overall compared to my Epson projector. The Epson just seems to have a lot more ease of adjustability (screen display, zoom, right-left image movement/adjustment options, and the legs). For my uses, I'm always using the Epson on a table and it's always set up then taken down. My Optoma is fixed mounted to the ceiling. Considering that, they both serve their purpose and the Optoma is fine because I set it up once and that was it. However, if you are NOT planning to mount the Optoma I feel like you're going to be annoyed trying to get the picture how you want it compared to other projectors out there that have more adjustability. If you're going to mount it like I did, then it's not an issue. Overall I'm satisfied with the Optoma so far. This is highly contingent on the rest of my setup, so be sure to figure out how you're going to set up yours before buying. If you're looking at non-fixed screen or set up then take down scenarios, I would consider other options. If you're going to use a fixed screen with a black edge and mount it, then the Optoma should satisfy you. ... show more
