Optoma Projectors

Tell us about your media setup! Is a projector better than a large screen tv? Why?

This projector normally goes for $2400! Not only that but it gets 4 and 5 star reviews from all the purchases on Amazon.com. No negatives!

Here’s a link to the same projector on Amazon:

I agree TX1080 is an amazing projector at a fraction of the cost. User reviews on Amazon are solid.

Far from a perfect projector it has high lumens but at a sacrifice of contrast. It is really a boardroom projector. For this price there are a lot of 1080p projectors you can look at.

here’s a great review from your link… I almost bit but I’ll wait for something better.

Any word on the pocket projectors? I’m seriously looking into getting one of these if anybody else has experience with them.

That is not the projector that is on sale at woot. That’s a TX1080 and the one on sale is PT105. Here is the link at Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B005MXK1ZY/?tag=hyprod-20&hvadid=15722889819&hvpos=1o1&hvexid=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=101046862389075311&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&ref=asc_df_B005MXK1ZY

There are multiple ones on sale here at woot. The TX1080 is sold out: Optoma 1080p HD Projector

Also, I bought a px301, any personal reviews on it?

My projector arrived with a bad VGA cable. I opened an RMA on it… I hope that I get a new one!
