Lightweight. Good picture... i dont like the menu or operating system. I wish it was a smart projector. Or at the very least have bluetooth for sound output.
Overall i have it displayed on a 110" screen and am enjoying it
but not sure on a few things. The hdmi ports say 60hz, but the specs say up to 240hz at 1080 and 120hz at 4k
I can get 4k at 60hz but cant seem to get any higher refresh rate. Anyone else have this issue?

Great projector, picture is really sharp and bright. I have it about 30’ away from my screen and the picture is great. The first picture is with the lights off in my BARn second picture is with the lights on. The pictures don’t quite do them justice but trust me the picture is good

What can I say, for the price point this projector is great! Colors are vibrant and beautiful. Image is clear. Gaming is also great running from a PC at 4k with all settings on high. It’s perfect for me. My studio allows me a massive image along with a very nice surround sound system, movie nights are epic!

Very impressed and pleased with this projector so far. Set up is pretty easy once you get the hang of the menu. Picture quality is great in a dark room but is also visible in a lit room. Gaming is an amazing experience on this projector also.

Love it, great have had zero issues with it, infact it might be my last projector ever..unless a better one comes out that’s real 4k. Or 8k although then video games will become too big for us to store on consoles sadly..so while it’s real 4k it’s still two 1080 chips over each other which by all means looks pretty good..just gets too bright with games like destiny..

Great projector to get you into 4k picture with 4000 lumens! I upgraded from a 1080 and you can really see the difference. I have used with Xbox Series X and watched quite a few UHD movies. Both of which look pretty great for this price point. The menu is pretty terrible, but I didn't have to adjust much out of of the box.

WAY TO GO OPTOMA

Wow, way to go Optoma, this thing is super fast, with no lag. It’s also lighter than what I expected. The picture is smooth as butter even in a fairly lit room. I had my Apple TV 4K, and my Panasonic 4K Blue ray hooked up and running in no time. I will do another update once I test out the 3D. Stay tuned...

Decent 4k Projector. Good response time and picture clarity. Make sure you have a black rear projector screen film to dampen light intrusion. I'm happy so far. Newer models has ARC input so that would help. Price has gone down quite a bit but such is technology as time passes.

Great picture, no lens cap

The picture is great on this projector!!! Only complaints I have are that the blacks are kind of washed out and for whatever reason Optoma doesn't include lens caps with their projectors anymore. There is a loop for the lens cap but I reached out and they said they don't include or manufacture them. The grille on the side for airflow does bleed a bit of light also. For these things, I've gone 4 stars but especially for the price, this is an excellent projector.

Value movie projector with no features

For Straight up picture quality this is a great projector. As for The outdated 3D feature its lacking. You can only play blue ray 3D from discs or use a PC and emulate Frame Packing or Frame Sequencing which youd probably would illegally DL the movie then. Also this projector doesnt offer ARC support so theres no return audio available youll need a sound system or soundbar with HDMI in/out. I wouldnt even bother to game with this projector either just get a 4k tv with hdmi 2.2 futire proof for next gen 4k@120 this projector only does 1080@120 or 4k@60

It's a little expensive if you're not super into projectors. I upgraded a $350 1080p projector that I got on Amazon. This absolutely blew that one out of the water. It is much quieter, and the picture quality is excellent. It took a little bit of effort to get the picture looking good. I was able to find some suggestions online, and then compared it to my iPhone's picture while adjusting the colors.
Now that it is set up the way that I want and I think looks really good and as acurate as I could get it, I am beyond happy. I can find myself forgetting that it's a projector, even in the darker sections of some shows/movies. Games play very well on this as well. There is no noticable delay for normal games at all.

Good picture quality. Bright enough at 130” size for a well lit room.
Easy setup. This replaced another optoma projector (1080p) that was 12 year old.
Hope this gives similar life.

This is a great projector for Modern Consoles and movies. Has been a staple of my home for the past 13 months. However, on day 1 of the 13th month, a dead pixel has appeared. I'm awaiting to hear about potential RMA/warranty coverage, but its sad a pricey piece of equipment can go bad so quickly.

The projectors have made all of our PowerPoint slides presentations much better. The brightness, colors, and clarity are beautiful!
