It seems like you're expressing satisfaction with the impressive brightness, sensitivity, and image quality of your new device compared to your old 4K ultra short throw. I'm glad you like it!

I'll say up front that the one-star deduction is for the UI. It's not bad by any means, but it could be better. And since that's fixable in OTA updates, it's not that big of a deal.
Anyway. When I opted for the 2500 over the brighter 3500, I was, admittedly, a bit worried about having sacrificed picture quality on the budget altar. But I did not. Now, my projector is in our basement, which we've turned into the theater room since our kids are all now teenagers. But even with the curtains covering the patio door open, or half the overhead can lights on, this thing still puts out a great picture. Yes, you should go dark for best results, but dim is still quite good.
The AWOL has enough tweakability that I was able to get the colors to my liking without too much effort. It does help if you're not a noob to such things, but once you figure it out it's relatively painless. And the picture really is stunning. On 4K Blu rays like the remastered Indiana Jones movies or "Ford v. Ferrari," you will suddenly turn into Cletus the Slack-jawed Yokel in amazement. And watching the Chiefs (usually) win week and week? Awesome.
One thing the AWOL has that I didn't really think I'd care about is support for 3D Blu rays. Since the UHD player I've had forever supports 3D, I figured I'd buy some glasses and used disc off eBay and see if it was worth the effort. It was, and then some. My favorite so far has been "Into the Spider-Verse." Probably because it was rendered in 3D instead of converted after the fact. And it's animated, which helps. But wow, what a hoot.
FYI, my screen is 100-inches as that's the one I found the best deal on. Shop around for screens. If it's really an ALR/CLR, there isn't much quality difference between screens aside from how the go on the wall.
All in all, I'm very pleased with the AWOL. I'd thought about getting a good mini-LED or QD-OLED at 75-inches, but the giant screen was -- and is -- too good to pass up.

This projector did not live up to the expectation. despite following the exact settings that a couple people had posted on the forums I was still left with a dull and lifeless image.
It was dim with bad contrast and didn't look anything like the images they post on their website either.
The speakers also sounded pretty crummy.
When I tried to post on their facebook group asking for help on why mine looked so bad, they banned and blocked me so I returned this and will be buying a better projector from a real brand.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend
