Hisense C1 4K UHD Triple Color RGB Laser Portable Mini Projector, up to 300", 110% BT.2020 Color Gamut, 0.47" DMD DLP, 20w JBL Sound, Netflix, Auto Keystone Correction, MEMC Smart Mini Projector

Upgraded from the Epson Epiqvision EF 12 which was a pretty good projector but just not bright enough in a well lit room. This projector is outstanding in terms of brightness, image quality and sound quality. Worth every penny.

This was worth the investment. When it first arrived, I was impressed by the presentation when I first opened it. I wish I took pictures of it. Setting it up was pretty easy. All you have to do is point it at the projector screen (if you have one) and it will automatically fit the picture within the screen. Pretty cool! The picture quality is amazing. I can’t get over how clear this thing is. I am projecting on a 135 inch screen and the picture clarity, the color accuracy and black levels rivals my 85 inch Samsung. The brightness is pretty good too. Bright enough to enjoy it even with the lights on. But man when the lights go out that picture really pops! The sound quality is pretty good for a little projector. Got some bass too! It is Dolby Atmos certified. It doesn’t beat hooking up a surround sound system to it though. It comes with its own OS with all kinds of apps pre-installed like Netflix, YouTube, Disney plus and Prime Video. My only complaint is it doesn’t have YouTubeTV. However, I bought an Amazon Stick for that and that solved that problem.

We have been using a cheap Happrun projector in our bedroom for about a year and finally decided it was time to upgrade to something a bit higher quality. Positives: Super clear and bright picture. This thing is blindingly bright where we use it (in the bedroom and pretty much only in use at night). The auto calibration is super convenient and accurate even when the projector is placed at extreme angles (see negatives below). The Vidda OS is decently snappy and has a lot of different options as far as streaming apps. It also natively includes Netflix which is a feature that is hard to find on a lot of projectors. Negatives: The lack of optical zoom or lens shift means it really needs to be mounted in just the right spot if you are going for a specific screen size or location. This projector really only works when placed at the level of the bottom of your screen or ceiling mounted to be level with the top. This came as a surprise to us since our cheap projector needed to be placed level with the middle of our screen. The way our bedroom is laid out, it means we had to set the projector on a nightstand beside the bed and use the digital keystone correction to compensate. I'm sure the picture quality is affected to some degree, but everything still looks crystal clear to us. The only other downside of this is you will see a bit of a trapezoid of light outside the bounds of the screen during dark scenes. I took off a star due to the lack of flexibility in mounting location but this thing is flawless if you can set it in the right spot.

Projector needed some calibration (color, brightness, contrast, etc.) but it has great color capability and impressive contrast. Very dark blacks and bright whites, especially with dark room viewing. Motion is very smooth as well. Also, the operating system is very good if you plan on using the onboard smart features. I have mine paired with my fire TV cube and home theatre setup. Overall very impressed. Cons: -Lack of optical zoom and physical lens shift (don't like doing this digitally) but for the price it is very well featured. *Not a deal breaker as the need for this can be mitigated with proper setup. - Auto screen sizing is not great. i may be doing it wrong but it never works properly for me, however the auto focus does a great job. ****Only 4 stars because, annoyingly, I was not sent a brand new unit. It had clearly been opened and used before by some French guy.

Broke my LG 75 LED TV... So I decided to try this out. Got to say it's absolutely amazing. Watching a movie at 120 inches, using a cheap cloth projector screen looks absolutely fantastic. The unit is quiet. Looks amazing. It's easy to set up, The image autofocus is really nicely is very sharp. I did a lot of research on projectors and it came down to this one. Very pleased. Definitely go into the settings and tweak things to your liking. You actually feel like you're at the movies!!
