RCA 720p Smart Home Theater Projector

RCA 720p Smart Home Theater Projector

Season of the projectors?

60 lumens? Is this one of those"Only attempt viewing in an underground basement with no artificial sources of light" kind of projector?

720p is not something that I would consider smart.

Point it to the ceiling and let your kids watch TV in bed.

And even then, not over a 32" screen.

Nope.

I got this for my sister in law (she is jealous of ours), but you guys have me worried. I checked out the reviews and saw these two photos

I mean… damn. What more can you ask for? If those are real, they look better in daylight than my $600 3d projector!

With all that ambient light, that’s pretty darn good.

I hope they had express written consent from the NFL before posting that picture. :rofl:

After trying this out, I wouldn’t replace my 3d projector with it, but for someone who is looking to get in on projection at a cheap price… I’d definitely recommend this.

The image brightness is, just as in the review photos, SUPER FREAKING BRIGHT! I mean, I am in a fully lit room, with the door wide open and it more than bright enough. And in a darkened room… WOW!

I like that the focus and keystone adjustments are both physical, optical controls. Focus usually is, but keystone is often digital. I prefer optical to digital in most all cases. More clarity.

The audio is not bad coming from a little box like this, but if it were me, I’d be hooking it up to a surround system. Little steps. We’ll get her set up with video first… audio can wait :cowboy_hat_face:

The Roku “integration” is funny. Instead of being onboard and integrated into the unit itself, they plug a Roku device into a USB and HDMI and tuck it into a little cubby hole. :rofl: Actually, though… that’s better in a way, because if/when something breaks in the Roku or the unit is obsoleted (and they have done that more than once) you don’t have to replace the projector. You can just replace the Roku itself. :+1:t3:

My only REAL complaint is that the default Picture Modes are all too red. Everyone looks angry! :rofl: There are user adjustable settings, but I didn’t bother playing with those. I’ll wait until I set it up at her house and get it right for what she wants.

Anyway… just in case anyone cares :man_shrugging:t3:
