Ultra-Short-Throw DLP Projector
This ultra-short-throw DLP projector is built for home-theatre rooms where space behind the screen is limited. It throws a large image from a very short distance, making it practical for small living areas or bedrooms. The native WXGA panel and 1080p signal acceptance suit buyers who want a simple, big-screen experience without ceiling mounting.
2800-Lumen Brightness and 3000:1 Contrast Limits
At 2800 ANSI lumens the projector produces a watchable picture in rooms with some ambient light, but it cannot overcome strong daylight on a large screen. The 3000:1 contrast ratio provides decent shadow detail in darkened rooms, yet black levels will not match higher-contrast technologies. Buyers who need cinema-grade black performance in a bright living room should look elsewhere.
WXGA Native Resolution and Lamp Headroom
The 1280x800 native resolution handles 1080p sources by scaling, which is adequate for streaming films and casual gaming but does not resolve full HD detail. Lamp life is estimated at a minimum of 65 per cent of the original rating, so remaining hours depend on the unit’s prior use. Buyers who require native 1080p or 4K sharpness, or a guaranteed fresh lamp, will not be served by this model.

Questions about this item
Should I pick the 2800-lumen model or a lower-brightness version?
The listed brightness is 2800 ANSI lumens, which sits in the 2500–2999 lumen range; choose this level when you need a clear image in rooms with some ambient light.
What does the 1280×800 native resolution mean for 1080p content?
The projector’s native panel is 1280×800 pixels; it accepts 1080p signals and downscales them, so you get a sharp WXGA picture but not full 1080p detail.
How does the HDMI input limit what I can connect?
The single HDMI port carries video and audio up to 1080p 3D; it does not support higher resolutions or refresh rates beyond that signal standard.
