Hey, thanks for the video! And for confirming the fan noise.
This is by far the coolest thing ever. Loved watching your month long journey and can’t wait to see more.
Hey Haley Wrob, thanks for watching. Currently I'm testing the TK800M from BenQ. There will be a video for it coming up as well.
b00bytrap
Is it good for movies and what accessories does need thanks 🙏
@@b00bytrap hello b00by. Please Optoma hq 144x or hd 146 x. I'm desapointed. 🤔🤔🤔🤔
Thank s
Im buying one soon and totally forgot about ceiling mount option and as i have pet rats running cables down the wall and around the room to the source would be a headache so now i can run slim trunking along the wall and into the bookcase so thanks
Maybe the plastic film cover is still on the infrared spot on projector. That's why it's not reading the signal from the remote properly. Please check that.
Hi, does this have a feature to control motion..like set motion image level...and does it have bluetooth...
Very good video my friend. Just liked and subbed. I am using a BenQ 1280X800 (WXGA) projector right now and I am debating the upgrade to a 4K or 1080p one. Do not get me wrong the WXGA resolution is OK but as I am using it exclusively for gaming with a pc and a PS4 Pro I am looking at something better. Looking forward to your future videos. Greetings from Greece!
Hey Kujo VanArk, thank you and thanks for watching. For me, testing the HD144X and now the TK800M I can really tell the difference. Of course, it's more expensive but the image quality is so much sharper even though it's using pixel shift. Last night we watched Terminator Dark Fate (4K) on this with a couple of friends. Everybody was pretty impressed, including me.
@@b00bytrap Thanks fro the reply my friend! Pixel shifting is what worries me, but I think I will take your advice and move directly to 4K!
@@b00bytrap How would this do with the current next gen gaming consoles? Just got a ps5 and wondering how the performance would be ideally.
Ik twijfel tussen deze of de xiaomi van zelfde prijsklasse
I just bought it on Amazon, but the reviews weren't mentioning this high pitched noise from the color wheel, which would drive me insane in a matter of minutes. I will see if mine has it and report back, and in case return it immediately.
where is report
@@bezimiennygrzes5593 No unbearable color wheel noise, but the eco mode is unusable after a few hours because the whites flicker, so I am keeping it in regular (noisy) mode
do you watch 3d movies on this?
I have an old Sony amp which i like, is it possible to get my video only through this projector and my audio through my old amp as usual [coaxial] or do i need a new amp set up? i only use my projector for dvds.
Oh god.. colorwheel is so annoying. Thx for the video.. now i know for sure: i need a 3LCD projector (not going to use it for gaming)
You didnt use dynamic black. It is the best option of the projector. No flickering and super image and long lifespan of bulb
Hi! I wanted to know if it’s possible with the Chromecast V3 to turn on the projector automatically when you send something to the chromecast/combining it with a google nest?
Does it have auto keystone correction ?
Is the bright setting the only one with no flicker and do they do software updates. And with sharpness is it best to make it the highest
Honest review, So far so good your review sir! I will subscribe your channel. Looking forward for your future reviews. Thanking you from Luxembourg & Saudi arabia
Hey JUNGJUNG DELOSREYES, thanks for watching and you're welcome. Soon there will be an experience video for the TK800M.
Hey, I’m new to projectors and was thinking of getting this one (it was recommended to me). Can you tell me how far from the screen do you have your projector please. Thanks for making a fab review.
Hey Pj Sutherland, At the time when I used this projector the distance to the screen was about 3m. The projection screen is 98"
Please note that the fan in this one does produce quite a lot of noise.
This I a 💯% honest review thanks I could relate to many of the things you mentioned thanks
Hey MrZamo99, thank you and thanks for watching.
sir; noremal USB connection possible ?
Thanks a lot!!
OPTOMA is one of the best in regards to picture quality but sadly the fan, noise coupled with the color wheel whine cancels it out, I would love to have a optima but not with that fan noise its a total deal-breaker, I hope they address this insane oversight soon as I am sure it will boost their sales considerably and I can buy one.
it has the loudest and most annoying projector noise of all the projectors I have checked out.
nobody uses a projector with the built in speakers so how exactly would you hear the fan?
@@luc1ferblack with your ears?
@@luc1ferblackMovies often have quiet moments - you'd hear any fans then. Also this type projector would likely be placed somewhere around you (and your head) .
Thanks for your help, I would like to know which one is the best between the acer h6517abd and optoma hd 144x
Hey Fabien, thanks for watching. On paper there is not much difference (except the HD144X has more connectivity options) but I haven't seen the H6517ABD so I can't tell you much about it. If you have the chance I would say, go to a store who sells them for a demo.
Hi. I have optoma hd 144. Yesterday i updated the drivers of nvidia and the sound trough hdmi from PC dissapeared. I reverse the old drivers but it is still the same. What to do?
Hey Danail Vladimirov, thanks for watching. Assuming you have the playback settings in order, you can try to remove the Nvidia driver with DDU (suggest to do it in safe mode) and reinstall the latest Nvidia driver for your GPU.
Nice review . I have 2 options in my mind. Optoma hd 144x and Epson TW650 (1060). Epson cost 30% higher than optoma..which one is best
Hey sivasangaran venugopal, thanks for watching. Tough one. You're comparing a DLP (Optoma) to a 3LCD (Epson). 3LCD will not give you the notorious "rainbow effect" but comes at a higher price. I would suggest to see a demo on both of them before making a decision on which one to get.
@@b00bytrap thanks for your reply. I was confused too. Is worth to invest extra money because of rainbows effect..
It depends. I noticed it more often on the HD144x than on the TK800M I’m using now. Both are DLP projectors. It also depends if you’re sensitive to it. I guess I’m not so much so it doesn’t really bother me but it might if you are.
What you recomend then to avoid fan noise my budget is around £500-700 uk pounds planning on roughly 100" screen ?
so website has them under £400 and £11 a month
hello i will use it only with my Mac for MAO, do you know if the ( definition) menu, or files of your computer is perfect definition or there is some pixels?
thxs
Hey Cosmik Guitare, thanks for watching. I don't know if I catch your question correctly but the quality of the projection relies on the projection distance (the greater the distance, the larger the pixels will be) and ambient lighting (a darkened room will give you the best overall quality in contrast).
Does anyone know where I can purchase a lens cap for this particular model? It does not come with one out of the box.
Hey SocalSplitter, thanks for watching. Well, If I were you I would send an email to Optoma. They have it on their site: shop.optoma.co.uk/lens-cap-hd27ehd143x-eh334
The problem with a lens cover for this projector is that you'll clip it on the focus wheel so you'll have to adjust it every single time when you want to use the projector. For on the go it's useful.
Thanks. Nice video and nice accent.
Hey Paul Friedhelm Günther
, thanks for watching :)
My remote is not backlit. Does anyone know I can turn that ON?
Hey Luisa Sousa, thanks for watching, try to put batteries in. Sorry, xD no it should be backlit by default.
so this or hd146x ?
hi , at 9.4 you speak about zoom , digital I think , what about mechanical zoom , exist really?
neverless very interesting test.
Hey xavier goutenoir, thanks for watching. This projector has both manual and digital zoom.
With manual zoom, you have to adjust the image size on the projector itself by moving the zoom wheel to left or right.
This is mechanical as you have to adjust the lens manually (optical).
If it has a button or menu setting to enlarge the image size (like this one in 9:40), then it's digital. Digital zoom will affect the image quality.
Is there a way to set up different user profiles? Like when I press user 1 on the remote it goes to cinema mode, and when I press user 2 it goes to gaming mode ect.?
Hey MyggeN, thanks for watching. Yes, you can set three user profiles.
@@b00bytrap thanks for the answer! Already got the projector though. It seems like the user profiles are pretty limited. I don't think you can set one to go to cinema mode and another to go to gaming mode. It's more like user one goes to hdmi 1 and user 2 opens the menu.
Thanks for the video. What's your address again?
is it audible/distractive in eco mode too?
Thanks
Hey brip eeer, thanks for watching. It's less audible in eco mode but unfortunately the high pitched sound is something that was always there.
@@b00bytrap hi is their a rainbow effect
Hello , can you sent me please the driver instalation ?
Hey Daniel Ionut, thanks for watching but you don't need any drives :)
What are you using for the sound of the projector?
Hey Yanet Vega, thanks for watching. At the time anything except the built-in one. It's not that great.
When I used the projector, most of the time through my Sonos setup or late at night with bluetooth headphones connected to the Shield.
Hey b00by trap I have d hd142x optoma is d Lbx for 2.35.1 wide screen, I calibrated my own self shows really good
Could you, please, share your calibration settings?
Does it work on a white wall?
Hey enn bee, thanks for watching. Sure but you will get better results on a projection screen.
How does this work in natural daylight?
Hey Craig Noteboom, thanks for watching. Sorry, I should have covered daylight viewing. It's bright enough to watch something on it in a well-lighted room but the image quality gets quite dim and grey so you lose most contrast. Therefore I do think most people will close the blinds/curtains before watching anything on it. With the last, it's a pleasant viewing experience.
Hey i noticed this projector gets very hot, is it normal?
Hey Tesla Cyber Truck, thanks for watching. That's because of the Halogen light bulb that's in this (and every other DLP) projector. It's quite normal but it will need room for ventilation so don't block the exhaust, and once you're done using it, make sure to let it cool down so don't cut it off from power. It can damage the light bulb.
I've used mine in eco mode for 3 months, never noticed a single flicker.
Hey Twan Theunisz, thanks for watching and sharing your user experience. Do you have the projector for three months?
@@b00bytrap I've had it for almost 4 now I think, its always been on eco mode, even when I use 3D, picture is still plenty bright and colorful, no visible flickering or anything.
i feel a fan mod coming
Hey fr05ty, thanks for watching. Sadly it's not only the fan but the color wheel as well. I'm currently testing the TK800M and it's so much quieter than the HD144X. Also no high pitched sounds from the color wheel.
That noise can destroy atmosphere in some movies, I don't like it.
Hi. Did u had any rainbow effect with hd144x? Thank you
Hey Igor Ivlev, thanks for watching. At 18:36 I mention the rainbow effect. Yes, it's visible.
@@b00bytrap thanks for replying. I went with epson tw5650. I don't want take chances of dlp projector and potentially suffer from rainbow effect, i know i will hate it. I ahd another epson projector before, so i like 3lcd system. I was thinking about benq tk800, but again dlp-rainbow, and also i think need to paint wall with special paint or have proper projector screen to receive proper 4k hdr result. I didn't feel like dealing with all that, so choose good full hd 3lcd. Im very happy.
@@igi_2402 you're welcome. I get your decision. In fact every DLP projector suffers from it because of the color wheel. I must add that I can hardly notice it on my TK800M so they did a better job than Optoma did with their HD144x. How do you like the tw5650 so far?
@@b00bytrap yes i was thinking benq would be better in quality, but again these toys are not cheap so I didn't want to gamble. Also shops are closed down, cant go and check myself. I order online. And i knew for sure with 3lcd no chance of rainbow effect. Also i heard some people more sensitive to rainbow effect than others. Im very happy with tw5650. Good colors, brightness, decent contrast, good sharpness. Especially for me being used to my old epson projector which was svga resolution, this full hd looks perfect :) i have it about 5m from the wall and getting approx 120-130 inch screen. Have hooked up ps4 pro, im very very happy gaming, watching Netflix amd RUclips. There also many many settings in the projector itself that you csn adjust picture quality to your liking. But even out of the box its beautiful
It's visible like hell in that game. I don't like all those chromatic aberations and similar things, so I still can't make decision if DLP or LCD. LCD projector makers are saying how perfect it is now, but they are saying that 15 years, same like TV producers and it's still just LCD, little better than 10 years ago, but it's still just LCD, so I don't really trust to them, but that rainbow effect of DLP projectors really scares me. People say that LCD projectors have problem with grey black, but you have this problem even in real cinema, it can't be so bad as black on IPS LCD.
interesting video.
" I got the Optima with the built in darbee chip ..but it's great really pleased ..run through our A.V. 4k amp ..
Great up conversion 💜 well worth it!! 💜
"STAY SAFE 😷
d 🤕💜🇪🇺🗺
Its too hot when I touch it is really warm I think more than 80-90degrees
Hey Minco Van Krevetak, thanks for watching. Well yes, the light bulb does produce a lot of heat. If the fan is spinning you're fine :)
But do remember that the device needs to cool down after use.. So never unplug it from power when you're done using it. When the fan stops spinning, it's safe to unplug it.
B00bytrap mines doesn't flicker it's on eco all d time
Ajm lowing jor akcent;)
Hey Mikołaj Bądzielewski, hehe, well thanks for watching :)
what is better than a good review?
when the reviewer replies to the question.. this is very much ignored by most reviewers thanks for the time..
Hey shashank rao, thank you for watching and the feedback :)
I think that you had defective one :/
Hey Kushikyon, thanks for watching. I do think you're right. Last week I calibrated one at work. That model didn't had the high pitched sound that this model in the video was producing. The fan was still quite loud though.
These are pretty underwhelming for 500 euros. It seems like they still haven't figured out a way of cooling the lamp that isn't so intrusive. I wouldn't mind paying more for something a bit more sophisticated than a fan..
@wozzlepop How would you passively cool a lamp?
@@EnZoFPS By using a laser..
that is a lot of noise..
B00bytrap my brightness is on 7 n contrast on 5 sharpness 10 color -2 gamma 2.2 brilliant color 3 dynamic black off
Hey lyndon ramchatesingh, It can be that the HD142x (from your other comments) has different hardware and therefore hard to compare. I'm glad that one is working great for you.
