Amazing quality at this price point...DOES WORK WITH WINDOWS 7
By vincent18713
I purchased this projector for use in a home theater setting. I use it on a projector screen that has enough space for about a 55" display size and it looks amazing. Picture is crisp and colors are vibrant. On eco mode it works very well in a well lit room and looks even better in a dark room. Auto input selection is nice so you can just plug anything into it and it will automatically select the source along with auto screen aspect selection (if you enable these options). After reading a review that someone was unable to use their Windows 7 PC with it, I connected my Windows 7 laptop both through the VGA inputs and through the HDMI inputs and both worked perfectly. Obviously the other review where the user says this does not work with Windows 7 doesn't know how to use their PC / Projector (it's easy plug and play). At 720p resolution, it looks just as good as a 1080p TV I have in another room. Additionally, the warranty is a lot better than most projectors (3 years parts/labor and 1 year on the lamp whereas most only offer 1 year on everything).Cons: (very little, but if I had to pick something...)The built-in speaker is mono sound only, so some things might not sound right through the built in sound. The speaker does get loud enough to be adequate, but you shouldn't expect much from the single built in speaker it has. Hooking up a pair of external PC speakers to the audio output greatly improves the sound quality.Overall, I couldn't be happier with this purchase.FOLLOW UP after 11 months of ownership:Something I realized long after this purchase that I think is important to mention is that this projector DOES NOT support HDCP video through the HDMI port. This translates to some Blu-ray discs not being able to play in HD. In my home theater setup, this is not an issue because I use an Xbox 360 to stream most of my content and video game systems seem to work fine. However, if you must have the ability to play HDCP video content, you might want to consider Viewsonic's PRO line of projectors that are designed for home theater and support HDCP (as far as I know). Other than that, the projector has been working great almost a year after ownership.

By Jeremy Schatten
This projector is really amazing. I'm an IT guy, so I see a lot of projectors in and out of the office. Finally, I decided, it was time to get one for my home. I couldn't be happier with it. Even though I saw a negative review on Projector Central, suggesting that it was more of a business projector than a home theater projector, I couldn't disagree more. They said there were "rainbow artifacts" on the screen, but I can't see them unless I shake my head vigorously side to side. The brightness is fantastic. It's perfect, because even though it has high lumens, the colours aren't washed out. I don't even project this puppy on a screen. I just use a white wall. Incidentally, it's so great, it even works decently on a blue wall. The menu is easy to navigate, it's sleek and attractive. The only thing that concerns me is that it doesn't have a lens cap. The lens is recessed though, so unless you stick your finger in there, it won't face any abuse.

You get what you pay for: if you want alot; keep looking
By cjohnson317
I've had the projector for 2 months now. I'm quite satisfied with the product considering the price I paid (refurb)Here's actual breakdown of real comsumer usecase set up with a home theater, home computer, and an Onkyo multimedia receiver. The unit is mounted on the ceiling 18 feet from the screen in a darkend basement. Actual projection footprint of screen is 120 inch diagonal on a 4:3 setting.PRO:> Color is superior.Great ability to customize contrast, hue, and all sort of projection aspects. HD conversion is VERY good considering the hoops I had to jump through.> Its small and lightweight. Easy to mount.> Interface signal auto-detection is quite convenient.> Lumens are perfect for a dark basement setup.> My 18' projection setup actual extends to ~145 inch diagonal on letter box but I can't install a larger screen to accommodate.> Great coverage with factory remote and Harmony remote. 45 degrees plus.> Composite to RGB interface supports HDMI quite well. Why am I doing this? Read on...CON:> The projector is HDMI 1.4 only! It is not HDMI 1.3 backwards compatible. I have an inwall 1.3 HDMI cable and I never saw this limitation in the fine print. My Onkyo receiver and bluray player suffers from the limitation. Poor me but I'll live with it. That means no 3D as a result.> NO HORIZONTAL KEYSTONE! If you are using this for home theater and have to mount at least 1 foot off perfect center, expect at least a 5 inch skew.> The fan is fairly noisy. More noisy than I expected but I turn up the volume on the movies and I don't notice it.> There is a rainbow effect, however, I hardly notice it except for high contrast dark scenes.I can't beat the price for the quality of the picture. I'm sticking with it for now and I'm living with composite cabling conversion having toavoid tearing out my ceiling to install HDMI 1.4 cabling.---------------------------------------------------SIX MONTHS SINCE HAVING IT - 130 HOURS INTO SERVICE---------------------------------------------------So I'm not a big in-season football fan. I usually will watch the games on my regular flat screen upstairs. Since my team made it to the playoffs this year, I started to watch the playoffs in the basement on the projector.The first thing to note is that 1080P displayed via WXGA projectiopn isn't comparable to flatscreen 1080P. Not a huge issue. I pretty much knew this doing the research but going on a great deal for this projector.What I "DO" notice that I didn't expect to see is the high pixelation the faster the action shots were during the football game.Fast running shots or panning against all the colors and shapes in the crowd, the screen refresh rate in the project is challenged. I think it must be screen refresh compatability conflict with the cable box. It has to be as standard movies through CD and Bluray look great.Still love it for the price I got, however, I can't increase the star rating to "four" from "three" from teh perspective of a cable TV consumer perspective. The HDMI1.4 limitation I ran into and the absense of horizontal keystone were big limitations preventing me from utilizing a lot of options.
