PH31 for some reason is retailing about $600. Propix 860 has dropped off the face of the earth. Edit: It seems it's down to these 3, all new:
Benq 575i for $600 Viewsonic PX700HDH for $500 Optoma PK31 for $400.

hi! I am new to projectors and I have a special need for a projector that has the most stable image: No flicker, no quickly flashing colors or lights, no dithering. Monitors, phones and TVs already cause me a lot of symptoms and eyestrain, so I am looking at projectors as an alternative to be able to find a way to go back to having a way of consuming media content.
I have never used a projector before and where I live there is no way for me to test one, and I would have to buy it imported, it is ultra expensive and I would not be able to return it (except for epson, which I might be able to, depending on the model).
I would like to have chroma 4:4:4, 8bit (no FRC or dithering), 240hz and VRR if possible, but that might not be a possibility from the models I have found. Given pretty much every projector is Pixel Shift 4k, I will not be using 4k, only 1080p.
From my research, it seems the 3LCD tech is the way to go as apparently it doesn't flash colors like single chip DLP does. The models I found are
Epson: LS800 and LS6000.
The LS6000 is newer and just released, but I don't know how better it would be than the LS800. I can't find meaningful differences that I can understand.
I also don't know whether the LS800 and LS6000 are chroma 4:4:4, 8-bit without FRC/dithering, and flicker/PWM-free (like when adjusting brightness)
DLP: hisense PX4, Xgimi Aura 3
I know DLP contradicts my main need for not having flashing colors, but having never used one, I would like to ask your opinion and feedback on it. Is it something that sensitive people struggle with? or is it just the visual annoyance of the rainbow effect? does sensitivity from dithering and flicker on screens apply to DLP projectors as well?
Also, apparently ProjectorScreen website is blocked in my country. I see lots of links to it but I cannot access it.
Hi everyone,
I’ve just bought my first projector, a used Optoma HD27.
I noticed that when the image is out of focus, I can see a large number of small white dots all over the image, as shown in the photo. When the image is properly focused, they are much less noticeable.
I’m new to projectors, so I wanted to ask if this could be an issue with the DMD chip.
Thanks for any help!
Hi, I’ve been thinking about getting the Elfin Flip 4K and I’m wondering how portable it actually is for plane travel
Has anyone travelled with one in a backpack or carry-on? Once you add the charger and case, does it still feel reasonably portable or is it already quite bulky?
I’m basically deciding between this and something like the Viture Beast. The glasses are obviously much easier to travel with, but I’m still unsure about them. I keep seeing people mention blurry edges, comfort over longer sessions, and they also don’t seem that useful for productivity.
The Elfin Flip is tempting mainly because it’s still fairly compact, 4K, and gives you a proper big screen without having something sitting on your face the whole time
I guess something must’ve gotten on my screen before it rolled up. No idea what it was I can’t find anything. I have these indents all the way up.
Update: This screen is a Grandview 120” ALR tensioned.
After I made sure there was no debris or bumps catching it, I rolled it up for a few hours. When I rolled it back down they’re hardly noticeable. In case this helps future people! Hopefully they go away entirely.
Looking for a new projector for business use. Mostly for trainings for 60 to 100 people. Trainings are held off site a few times a year so needs to be portable and would love to have good built in speakers if possible. Budget up to $1000. I like the capsule III but not sure it’s bright enough.
I’m looking to setup a projector in my soon to be finished basement and have been eyeing the XGIMI Aura 3. The area itself is about 14’ by 11’. The seating area will be about 13’ away. There’s only a small window like 20’ away that will be covered by a blind so lights should be manageable. The pictures show a 100” and 120” screen layout on the wall and the unfinished room itself.
I need suggestions on whether it makes sense to go with a UST versus a standard throw, 100” vs 120” screen, any other suggestions. I’d love to stay below a CAD $3000 budget ideally, projector and screen. The Aura 3 Pro is still like CAD$3000 and Nothing Projector screen on Amazon is on sale right now.
Besides the obvious fact that a 120” is more immersive and bigger than 100”, I’m leaning towards the 100” screen. Thoughts are much appreciated.
Also note that I didn’t originally plan on a projector, which is why I have electrical and conduits roughed into the wall.
I just bought a wzacto yuva vibe pro and it's pretty good except there is smudging of images when there is black background as shown in the image. Is there any solution for this?
