Epson PowerLite S7 MultiMedia Projector (V11H328020) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Being a teacher gives me many opportunity to deal with many powerpoint projectors
(I'm only in my late 20's but it used to be overhead projectors :P)
I use this projector every week and it works great~!
Features that I liked:
- Easy to see labels to show which VGA belongs where and etc.
- You can turn the projector to sleep mode just simply by closing the lid, and when you open the lid again it shoots the screen real quick.
- It's sleek and good looking for a projector.
- Very quiet, I don't hear any annoying fan noise.
- Very simple to use.
- Great color! Love showing Movie Clips and Keynotes on them.
You can't go wrong with this projector, and I think it's the best one out there for this price range.

Epson PowerLite S1+ Multimedia LCD Video Projector Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)When searching for a projector I had the following criteria which the Epson S1+ met.
Low Cost - Best price I found - Amazon - 749.00
Low Noise - Epson S1+ is 33dB
Minimum 800x600 Resolution
Native 4:3 Aspect Ratio
High ANSI Lumens - Epson S1+ is 1400
Decent Contrast Ratio - Epson S1+ is 400:1
Low Cost Bulb replacement ($150-$200)
For the cost, there was no other projector on the market that could compete. I did not want the lower end DLP projectors, due to rainbow effects that can happen. I also wanted a projector that would be cost effective after the initial purchase. The S1+ bulbs can be found for $150.00 to $200.00, compared to $350-$400 for competitors. BTW: This unit will be used in a small church for Sunday services and cost was a big factor when investing and researching bulb replacement costs.
How does it work?
We get a great image for our church service with full house lights on, this projector is brilliant. Very, low noise. Most of the time it is used with PowerPoint presentations, but it also does a great job with DVD projection.
Image Size?
This unit projects a BIG image from a short distance, if you need a large picture, but do not have the space...this may be the projector for you.
Quality?
I am really impressed with the fit, finish and quality of the Epson projector and will be purchasing the Powerlite Home 10+ for my home theater.
How does it compare?
I have an Infocus X2 and and NEC VT470 projector and I would take the Epson S1+ over either one of these any day.

With a footprint of just 14.6 by 10.4 inches, the S1+ sets up on nearly any convenient surface and weighs just 7 pounds, making transportation painless. An SVGA native resolution of 800 x 600 ensures that projected images retain their clarity even at great distances, while 24-bit color support of over 16.7 million shades results in accurate, true-to-life images.

A monitor out capability lets you display images on both the projected screen and on a monitor simultaneously, and compatibility with both PC and Mac operating systems ensures that your presentations a snap to set up, no matter which platform you're offered. The 500:1 contrast ratio provides sharp detail, and 1,400 ANSI lumens of brightness results in projections that are easy to see from anywhere in the room. The 130-watt UHE lamp provides over 2,000 hours of lamp life, while the internal power supply consumes 200 watts during normal operation and just 5 watts in standby mode.

The S1+ has a variable aspect ratio of either 4:3 or 16:9 and an adjustable projection screen size of 30 to 300 inches. The digital zoom/manual focus lens has an F-number of 1.4 and an f-number range of 16.6mm, which combine with digital keystone correction of plus or minus 15 degrees to help achieve accurate, in-focus projections across the entirety of the image.

BenQ PB8250 DLP Projector Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We started with a PB8200. After less than 2 weeks, it died. BenQ immediately replaced it with an "upgraded" PB8250. (Apparently, they had MANY problems with the 8200 model). Well, something went wrong with the motor in our 8250 around Christmas time and it became very noisy. We sent it in to BenQ January 29. It has been in the shop for a month now! This is inexcusable, considering they advertise a warranty that guarantees a replacement within 48 hours if there are problems in the first year. (Thank goodness this projector is for home use, not running a business!) In a nutshell, we are disappointed that TWO BenQ projectors have failed us in less than a year AND we have received poor customer service. FYI - Picture quality was great when it was working.

InFocus X1A DLP Multimedia Video Projector Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)it fell apart under use. I researched buying a projector for a long time and the x1 looked like the ticket. It had the right price and all of the right options and after unpacking it and setting up the projector it was WOW. Then the problems. A huge grinding noise started and I sent it back to Infocus to be repaired under warranty. Infocus promises a detailed repair report and they replaced a screw. The same thing happened and I sent it back to Infocus and spoke with a nice guy. I said this was a lemon and should be replaced. Not happening. I even offered to upgrade and pay the difference. Not happening. When I got it back at least this time the repair report didn't just say replaced a screw. The unit is doing the same thing out of warranty and I put in for a repair request and thought ..... hmmmmm..... if Infocus couldn't fix it under warranty then why could they fix it out of warranty and I would be out at least 300.00 with no guarantee it wouldn't do it again. So I have a useless unit hanging like a bat on my ceiling.
Did this unit perform? Yes it did. Was extremely happy with it. But then if you can't get it fixed and fixed right then the unit is useless and the lowest rating. I continue to read all of these wonderful reviews and no one has ever mentioned my experience. This leads me to believe that my unit was a lemon and Infocus should have done the right thing. I did write Infocus and told them I would be writing reviews and gave them a week with no response.
P.S. 06/23/2006
The marketing manager of Infocus read my reviews and my experience and have since replaced the unit with a NEW Infocus x-2 at no charge. Works like a charm yet it sometimes still has that metallic grinding noise.

LCD Video Projector (Includes HDMI Cable & Extra Bulb) Great for DVD, Wii, XBox, Playstation Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Ive had this Projector for alittle while now and im very impressed for the $320 i paid for it . It has a lot of nice Features for the price and most importantly the picture it provides is fantastic . now this is not some $1500 - $4000 projector so dont expect the same picture your gona get out of a 1080p LCD , LED or Plasma TV but it certinly holds its own . it has both a 4:3 and 16:9 aspect ratio but only will project 16:9 in and through HDMI. i dont know why it wont support it through HD/AV cables . i use it for both my PS3 and 360 and games and blu ray movies. they play and work great on it . you get a nice bright and vibrant picture out of this unit espicialy in darkness . it looks pretty good with just alittle bit of light but like most projectors the darker the better . it has a 1800 lumins lens . now if you dont know if 1800 is good or not . its considered that 1500 is good and 2000 is great .
i would have given this projector 4 1/2 stars if i could . what holds it from being 5 stars are a few things . it is alittle noisy but not annoyingly bad . i never really notice the noise it makes after 2 min but some people may be abit more picky then me . The menue navigation is abit of a pain though espicialy with the remote . it also has what most LCD projectors produce as well the " screen window " which means what it sounds like but this is only ever noticable if you are close to the screen like with in 7-8 feet and i sit 14 feet away from the screen and have it projected at 100" which is the max recomended size and i dont see it . the most annoying thing is the instruction manuel ... i mean who wrote this thing a cave man !? its not very helpful very vague . i will give you one of the lines from this thing . "When the thunder happen or long time no use , please pull the power cable out of projector" i mean i got some laughs out of it atleast . just dont expect the manuel to give you much help.
also make sure you have a surround sound system for this thing the audio out of the projector is pretty bad .
In the end though for a $320 projector this is a great deal if i paid $600 or $700 i wouldn't feel like i got ripped off one bit . so if you are lookin to build a nice home theater system i would highly recomend the HTP LCD Projector if you dont wana break the bank . i built mine for $700 when u include the projector , 100" screen , Sony bravia Surround sound and a few odds and ends things like cables . I deffinitly feel like i have the movie expericance in my house and every one els who has seen it says the same thing.

DG 737 HD Home Theater Video Projector LCD 640x480 Pixels Wii, Ps2, Xbox, TV, PC Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We were amazed at the picture quality and function of this unit. Compare to the "name Brand" Units that retail anywhere from $599-$1500 and you won't believe that you get the same performance all for just over $300! Could not be happier with the unit! It is an LCD projector so you must have dim to dark lighting conditions to view in. So Not good if you need it for meetings and presentations in light rooms? For that you will have to pony up a couple hundred more $$$ and buy DLP technology. But if your looking for Movies, Big Screen, Gaming in the basement, media room or just dim to dark room, this is a great unit for you!

Get name brand performance for half the price. So much better for just a little more $ You can't go wrong with this projector for movie night, Gaming, Sports etc. My buddy was steaming after I tested this unit in his theater room. He paid Three times as much for his Big name unit he paid $2,200 at a big box store and he couldn't tell the difference! Image through HDMI is INCREDIBLE! Great for Educational and Presentation purposes as long as you can dim the lights.
