This projector belies its price. As a budget projector, I expected issues with it's performance; both brightness and noise but was pleasantly surprised. This is a large projector that is quiet enough to be unobtrusive for all but the most silent of scenes when watching films. I found that it was possible to watch the output in a dim room on a neutral painted wall. However after taking the plunge and painting the wall neutral grey using custom mixed paint (aluminium flakes and a beige) the output was absolutely stunning, especially with 1080p source. The size of screen is nearly 3 metres wide and this projector was easy to adjust (because of it's optical lens shift) to fit the screen perfectly.
Overall, this projector is highly recommended, especially at this price.
