OOS

Just go on eBay and type in android led projector just to get and idea as to what they can do .

Nobody seemed to mention how much the replacement bulb will cost & is it not better to get a LED projector that has a bulb life of 10+ years and that they have wireless connectivity and some come with android operating system (good for Kodi) and a good one costs around £300 .

Took the plunge and bought one!

Got one coming today. All I've got to do now is rearrange the entire living room.

Really tempted by this. Just worried about the fan noise and rainbow affect. But cant be the best selling projector on Amazon without being decent for most people.

anyone else find the power cable is loose on these? I sometimes have to wiggle the cable about to get the power on.

Heat added good deal, I have benq th670 but this is good as well. My benq is better if you watch movies in pitch darkness, but this is better if you watch TV with dim light on, As optoma has better contrast . but of course my benq has low contrast which makes it give better whites on pitch darkness. I would advice you get this price matched at richer sounds, which they do always, and better warranty. Also always check your distance rate if you are planimg to place the projector in fixed distance to the screen. I had to choose benq also just because of this, I needed min. 420cm distance for a 120inch screen. Optoma could only give that in max. 330cm. Distance.

Cold, no 4K or coffee making facility :wink:

Couldn't get on with the rainbow effect, ended up with a TW5210, much better.

I use mine everyday in my room, it's pretty good. The 3d is absolutely cr*p on it though.

Very nice

I have this also- absolute quality in every way. 120 inch screen playing any game/movie or 3d movie is fantastic. Cue the 'rainbow effect warriors' which I have never seen personally. if you want 3d, you will need to some active 3d glasses and a sender which can be bought from Amazon. Buy it- you wont regret it!

The fan itself produces an annoying 'rrrrr' sound (no other projector I had can you hear the actual fan, just the rush of air). Some other people had the same issue, others didn't. It's still a bargain projector though, outstanding for gaming (its exclusive use for me).

So I'd have to get a freeview HD tuner (or sky box etc), run the audio to amp and video to projector? And run power up to the projector too. Cabling is stopping me!

Had mine for nearing a year, absolutely fantastic purchase. Replaced a 50" plasma with a 130" display projected onto a matte white wall. It's a bit noisy but it'll be drowned out by a set of speakers easily enough. Remember to give it a clean out when it gets noisy.

Would love to buy this but not sure if Costco after sale service. Think Amazon will price match??

reiterating above posts, had mine a year now and love it, can't beat watching family movies or gaming on a 120" screen with it. 3D also works really well. Don't need branded expensive glasses got 5 cheaper pairs off amazon work just as well.

What happened to the HD142X it seems to have disapeared from the UK

Stick in a chrome cast and stream to it

Had mine over a year, love it, 3d is nice too. The only grip I had that you cant adjust side angles. Next one I think will go for short throw one.

I've had this projector for over a year now and its great. 120inch screen the PJ just over 13 feet away. it has a nice picture and looks the part.

Had one of these for a while - good projector but doesn't have horizontal keystoning so needs to be mounted central to screen. Mine's slightly off centre (to be mounted in ceiling joist) so it bugs me, even though no one else notices

Picture doesn't do it justice but possibly the best thing i've ever bought. You wont be disappointed - especially at this price. Heat given.

Yeah forgot about the sound, don't have a amp myself but i use a old stereo radio cassette player with aux in, yes i know that sound's(no pun intended), like it might bit rubbish, but no, the bassy sound it gives off is great, just never got round to replacing it as it does the job. lol

You mean I won't :stuck_out_tongue:

You cannot got wrong for under £400 for a good 3d 1080p projector, and add a extra £45 on ebay for a nice big 120in screen and you will be in movie heaven in your own home.

Given that the fan creates the noise and its sole purpose is to keep the unit from overheating, I suspect the variation in noise is more to do with the ventilation/position/room temperature of the projector than unit to unit variations?

how noisy are these? want a quiet one for the vedroom

Got hd142x when it was on offer with screen for £449. But this deal is better.

had mine since nyd and love it... great price as well

Had this a while, absolutely love it! seriously good for gaming!

Got one already. Super projector. Use it most days. 88" screen for films and gaming.

cheapest been in a while so heat from me. i think it would help to add the retailer as you mention non members also.
