    Very clear explanation. I found that the the RD828 is being sold under many brandnames. I bought mine without brand name, just RD828. The sound is a bit low. I hooked my old laptop to it and have the sound output connected to my old stereoplayer. That gives real good and loud sound. My laptop is connected to my Plex network and there is nearly nothing else on it. The streaming is perfect, picture quality is very good too. I'm glad with the digital keystone correction. The picture is clear and sharp. I can start watching in the evening, as I live in Thailand where the sun is very strong and I have my projector outside on my veranda. For the price it is a great projector and I can only recommend it.

      @@CandidTechTV Well, one year later: I have to replace my projector already.... I have some blue lines over the picture when watching clear scenes.... not really a big deal, but I don't like it. Sadly, but ok for the price I have used it a lot during last year... But one thing about the sound.... sometimes I forget to turn on the Bluetooth speaker that is connected to my computer... seems the sound is better than in the beginning. It is loud enough. I already bought a new projector, think it is from the same company, a bit smaller, full 1080p HD, same remote, but this one has an Android OS.... it just arrived today.

    • @CandidTechTV
      @CandidTechTV  Год назад +1

      The CL760 that I reviewed before on this channel was native 1280x800p, not 1920x1080p resolution like this RD828 projector. So the RD828 would be the better picture option and is a newer model in general. A lot of listings say they're 1080p but aren't actually (they say "supported resolution of 1080p").

    I found that turning the image sharpness and contrast down to like 40 or less creates a much better quality image. Also if this ever breaks, the parts are pretty widely available online to upgrade. Especially the tft display or the bulb.

      It's probably "lux" actually. A lot of companies use "lumens" instead... This will be as bright as I've shown. If there are lights on or no curtains, it's going to get a bit washed out during daytime hours.

    Dudes fails to say that you cant use zoon and 4 point keystone together... they reset each other. Also when you turn contrast over 70, the middle of the screen stays white but sides ebcome yellowish. Its also pretty loud, can always hear it even while watching a movie..

      In pretty much every video I always tell people to just hook up a Roku or Fire Stick. Screen casting/mirroring can be difficult and lead to lag and other problems. I think the best use of it is for photos and showing something like a slideshow but definitely not movies/shows in my opinion. You can't even cast most apps due to limitations.

      Hey sorry I don't think I received a notification about this comment. This is best for dim light or dark environments. (think some sunshine coming through the blinds to complete darkness). Like George said, most projectors aren't great for truly sunny days. If so, you'd need to be paying definitely over $500 USD for sure.
