Epson Projector 4K 5000 Lumens

[16 W] I bought this to replace an older non-wide screen projector. When they say 5000 lumens, they mean it!  We can almost turn the room lights all the way up!

[300 Lumens] This is the 3rd View Sonic I have bought. When time came around to replace the aging workhorse projector in my production studio, I was seduced by all the new led projector brands with extraordinary specs. I bought 2 and returned both. Somehow their 4K video / 5000 lumens was not as bright, as clear or as distinct as a View Sonic’s HD/ 3600 lumens. Their keystone correction was nearly useless, there was no physical zoom ring to frame the image to the screen, and neither of them could really clearly project at 20’ distance the way the View Sonic can. They lacked signal-on sensing, they couldn’t do pass through audio... in short they fell far short of the prosumer features standard on the ViewSonic. So I returned home to ViewSonic. The projector is not 4K, but for me, that is not an issue, the HD video is plenty clear and resolved. The projector works perfectly. As for the purchase experience from B&H, this is the second professional purchase I have made this spring from B&H, choosing them for superior turnaround, and responsiveness. Bth delicate pieces of tech were well packed, arrived quickly, were clearly brand new and worked perfectly out of the box. ViewSonic and B&H don’t disapoint.

[1] This was a move up from an Epson 5030ub, so bulb based 1080p to native 4K laser is quite the jump. I’m projecting on a 135” budget 1.0 gain grey screen and the colors, contrast and brightness are spectacular. I sit about 14’ away and the detail and sharpness of the image is so much better than what I was used to. I love that Epson for what it is but this is in a different league. Having only had the projector for a couple of weeks, I’m still playing with different settings and testing various 4K media with my Oppo so still have to spend more time with this to really get to know it. The only con I’ve noticed so far is it can crush some black detail in difficult scenes but I may be able to tease out some image with some adjustment tweaks, not a deal breaker for me but worth mentioning. Also, my old projector was supposed to have a similar lumen rating and had about 900hr on the bulb but this is significantly brighter. Haven’t put the laser past 60 (50 is default) and won’t need to unless I am keeping some lights on in the room. Last thing is it is much quieter than the old Epson and is mounted right above my head so that is also a big plus, hope it stays this quiet.

[0.96 lb] I just purchased a new 4K Epson projector for my home and as I have done for my previous home projectors, I always buy a spare bulb right away. I probably won't need if for at least three years, but just in case, I'll have it hand if it goes early. The price from B&H was the best out there and it clearly was an original Epson product. Here's hoping that I DON'T need it from some time to come.

[Yes (Stereo)] [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this projector to replace an excellent Epson HD LCD projector. I was attracted to the laser light source and liked that this LG model had two separate colors which I thought would reduce the likelihood of rainbow patterns and indeed I haven't noticed these at all so far. The 4K is crisp and the picture is bright. HDR mode is very noticeable and I like the range of picture options. I use an Apple 4K TV and Xbox Series X so wasn't too interested in the onboard WebOS but its generally pretty responsive and intuitive so probably useful to have. The projected image does have a small thin light border and in super-widescreen 2.35:1 mode there are of course lighter bars at top and bottom; I'm not sure why with all the adaptive dimming technology they couldn't make it go really dark in those areas too, but projecting onto a wall with custom sprayed paint using MissisipiMan's formula in the AVSforum works really well with this projector and still looks better than the movie theater and is a big improvement over the Epson because of the 4K and laser technology, and is now useable in a brighter room. My advice is save your money on the expensive screen and splurge on this projector if you are thinking about it. I do think this technology is a generation ahead of the last and what's nice is it's also LG quality (I knew they made the best LCD IPS panels for computer displays as we have 6 of them, but now find they make really good projectors too) and really nice design and aesthetics. Switching on and off is fast and reliable and ambient noise seems quieter than anything else we have in the media room. We run a 30ft HDMI cable originally intended for 18Gbps through the ceiling and I was glad it didn't have to be replaced and meets all the XBox and Apple diagnostic tests at 4K/60Hz and 1080p/120Hz and works well with ARC sound too, even with a 3 year old receiver.

[Native: 16:9] I bought this about 6 months back and have been using it since then in my Home theater. This is great for ceiling mounting. This replaced my previous Epson 8350. The picture is bright even in the basic cinema mode when there is some outside light coming in. The projector is recognized as native 4K by Roku and any other components connected. First, I tried an Epson 4k model. It had brighter whites, but was not recognized as native 4K, and was huge in size. This projector is just half the size and weight, and has many convenient features and ports. The change from Epson 8350 was seamless, though the mounting hole positions are a bit weird. Overall, a great purchase for the price.

[14 lb] i needed a case for my 5000 lumens projectors, asked a BH specialist and they recommended this product. and it fits perfectly now are projectors are safe inside them.

[Lamp (1 x UHE)] “This is a review for the Epson EpiqVision® Flex CO-FH02 Full HD 1080p Smart Portable Projector projector that I received free of charge to do a beta test and review.” I really like this projector alot!..... I have several Epson products and this is a winner! The set up was so easy and fast.... I am very impressed with how bright the projection is even in full daylight in my studio! Also, the Auto Keystone Correction was great!....Thats a huge plus for me. When I tilt the Projector up, it adjusts the image for the angle....Love that! Another HUGE bonus is the speaker!.....I was shocked at how good it sounds on its own... and that is VERY rare for a small projector. Impressive! The resolution on this projector is quite amazing!.... I projected an image equivalent to about 90 inches wide and it was super clear, and very sharp! I do wish that it had a zoom feature, but thats not a deal breaker at all. The fact that this powerful projector easily fits into a backpack or small luggage is fantastic! I travel alot and will take it on many trips. I do wish that it had more HDMI Ports.... but I can use an external hub. Big plus that I love is the Android feature! I use Android Phones and this will come in handy in so many ways! Overall, this Epson is a WINNER to me....its light weight, sharp, great design and very affordable!...

[4000:1] We use this projector at trade shows, sometimes as a front projector and others as a rear projector. 1. Lightweight 2. Sufficient Lumens 3. Quiet

[0.265 lb] Great 4k projector for watching movies.
