bro i just wanna say thank you. most reviews on projectors don't go through this level of thoroughness. i salute you king
Jesus, that unboxing was fantasitic
Looked like howtobasic. I expected flying eggs and baseball bats.
lol I think so
Great Video! I bought it too.
Try this out:
Aspect ratio "point to point" and check out the contrast set to 60, brightness 46 and sharpness 60.
I figured out that in ptp you get a much more accurate color space out of this little beast.
My red have been pink a lot of times.
After changing that, it got fixed! It adds much more shadow details to the picture and still got its deep blacks ;)
Wow, this has been perfect...I was pulling my hair out with settings, thanks! Any suggestions for colour adjustments? Appreciated!
This reply needs sticking to the top of this! Absolute game changer, no longer do my reds look pink. Honestly, thanks so much.
@@stevenparker8163 yep, agreed!
Many thanks for this!
TL;DR: Aspect Ratio "Point to Point". Picture Mode "User" Contrast: 37, Brightness 53.
Color Temperature "User" R: 63, G:40, B: 70.
The "Point to Point" mode is totally undocumented in the manual, and the actual Aspect Ratio stays the same as "Just Scan", so no idea why it's in that menu, also it doesn't appear at all until you scroll past "Just Scan" to the next page! But as you say, it completely changes the contrast/colour response, and better yet it no longer blows out the bright highlights, nor lose details in the dark areas. This is the only mode where you can achieve this.
I used AVS HD 709 to calibrate mine in "Point to Point" mode, and my settings came out at: Contrast 37, Brightness 53. Colour and Sharpness I left at 50. (I'm not sure Sharpness does anything in "Point to Point" mode, I couldn't see any difference between 0 and 100. Also in "Point to Point" mode the Noise Reduction option is disabled.) Then also for Colour Temperature: User, R: 63 G: 40 B:70. Set like this the picture is very good indeed with excellent colour reproduction, and fine detail in dark and bright areas. Of course, there's quite a bit of variability between units, and screen/wall colours, ambient lighting, etc. but these settings should be a decent starting point.
Thank you so muchhh ilyyy
Best unboxing Ive seen yet! Precise, quick, to the point. TY!
Thanks
My cat really appreciated that silent unboxing..
Love the into how you show every angel of the project came in handy! Keep up the good work my dude!
I just setup my Vankyo v600 and it is better than I expected. Thank you.
Just bought this projector because of your video and you did a very good job showing me what I was getting before I bought it.. Thank you!! Just some constructive criticism, remove the word pretty from your vocabulary.
Never seen ur channel before, amazing quality and lovely editing!
Probably gonna get this for my future bedroom home theater setup...
Thank you once again!
I got the 630 and it's awesome.we love it just need a sound bar.
Please make the fan modification video! This thing screams.
Thank you. Its on amazon for $200 at this moment.
i have this projector and it works great with my custom alr silver screen
Thank you for your input!
I APPRECIATE it and APPRECIATE you!
Nice review! I’ve been in the market for a good quality low budget project for a while now. But most budget projects are misleading and don’t get good reviews. However I stumbled across this one today. And have already seen over a dozen reviews on this. It’s has had all positive feedback and everyone has recommended it. I just ordered mine off Amazon about 2 hours ago. Should be here by Thursday. Really looking forward to trying it out. Thanks so much for sharing :)
Olen Tennery how you like the projector? I mounted mine so far so good
I absolutely love it. Only had it 2 days and I’m impressed. I was scetchy at first about it having 5,000 Lumens. There is so many misleading information about Lumens on budget projectors. But after I put it in a heavy lite room and it still had a ok picture I was definitely very into it. I’ve got it on a Projector Stand and it’s doing great. Sound quality is not bad but I have it hooked up to a nice Samsung All in one sound bar. It’s probably the best $250 I ever spent on a device!
@@olentennery7359 That's good man, I have mine running to a sony 7.1 dts 4k receiver with Onkyo thx speakers, the fan noise is noticeable but it's much quieter than my old projector so definitely no complaint! I'm glad I went the budget route and found this bad boy! maybe down the road ill upgrade to an actual 4k projector and utilize this one for outside viewing parties.
Thanks
@@vankyo2027 hey guys can i use this with my ps4? also what are lumens and what do i need to consider when buying?
Dude you are wayyyyy too underrated!
Thanks for the info.
The screen looks uneven.(right side larger) It’s probably the reason the right side looks blurry and the left side is fine. You need to turn the projector left a bit. Use a measuring tape to make sure the left and right side vertical measurements are the same. Awesome review btw! The only review that actually shows refresh rate. Do you happen to know what the input lag and response time of the projector? I’ve been trying to search for the info online, but couldn’t find any.
The wall has kind of a slightly steper angle going inwards for the right side its just not flat.
As for the numbers they are provably no where to be found unless tested. Maybe i can test it against a set of monitors and see which ones match up lol. But none the less pretty great mouse responsiveness. Since controllers have the power to mask lag some how for TVs
Just wanted to say great review and thanks for putting in the time - liked and subscribed.
Awesome V600 review, thanks for your sharing.
This was a great video though, you went through everything and showed us exactly what you get for $250 and I greatly appreciate the time you took to do this for us. I gave you a LIKE and I even hit the subscribe button just to help as much as I could. I will even go back and turned off Ad Remover and watched this whole video with that off. But Optoma is one the best projectors. I have tried a few other brands and for the $500 to $850 range this is the best. Stay away from 3LCD, the colors look weird, (sorry Epson) stay with DLP if you want that TV look without the thousands and thousands of dollars to get anything bigger than a 70 inch.
Thanks, yea projectors are becoming cheap and way better. The low end or even mid tear brand names are great now. Its worth paying for a good projector, maybe I will try and see if I can review a brand name projector in the future once i clear my backlog.
One thing I've quickly learned about budget projectors... it's the LOUD FANS that kill the movie watching experience. So LOUD. I look forward to upgrading and ditching my budget projector.
Excellent! Thanks, I appreciate your help👍
Haha, loved the unboxing, your the best on the net, please keep it going just like that!
wow great editing. well done!
I think this is the one I've purchased. It's only $100 on Amazon now. I didn't know it was a couple of years old but I jumped on this when I saw the price!
Wonderful Unboxing Scene! Well done
Jedx M18 is the same device and can be found for considerably less!
Looks like you are right, I remember seeing a similar design a while ago.
Found one of them on Gearbest www.gearbest.com/projectors/pp_009416088396.html?wid=1433363&lkid=41858323
But not everyone is willing to order overseas sometimes if they have amazon access
But the price difference is enough, will see if Vankyo has responds to this comment, maybe they have done some changes on the inside
WiiNV, There are a few differences between the V600 and Jedx M18.
The V600: 5000 LUX to Jedx M18 3000 Lumens,
Contrast Ration: V600: 5000:1 vs Jedx M18: 1000:1 (which is less than Vankyo's bottom line projector the Leisure 3) So that may be the best comparison here.
I just don't want people to be misled by the appearance of the two.
@@cbw4sho
Still penty of other rebranded M18's by other companies with equal spec going cheaper!
quick easy unboxing thank you
how many hours were you able to game on it before it had to take a break?
I have a vankyo and its awesome!
Not this one their home theater projector
Games Played:
Rocket League
Devil May Cry
SnakeyBus
Sonic Mania
@@padius2287 get a job freeloader.
Very good video, liked it very much! How far away was the projektor from the wall? Would really like to know because I plan in maybe buying it
About 2-2.5 meters
Great video. Vankyo very much 😉
😆
This is a fantastic projector for CA only ~~~~~
Nice editing. No bs!
Simply good review, as usual 👍
Would love to see a mod video with a quieter fan installed? Any chance that will happen?
Possibly when im back from my trip which is at least a month away
@@LifeKommando Would love that, thanks!
Vankyo very much for that review
Great unboxing and review thank you
best unboxing ever bruh
What about a free standing screen? I have that and waiting for this projector to be delivered to try it out. Great Video.
Could you please review the Q9 projector?
I truly thank you
Awesome vid review. Just subbed !
Should I buy this or a 4K hdr tv
Got one of those and my main gripe with it is that fonts at the side can be quite unreadable
Very good Review, thx.
Helpful review. I would be using it for Rocket League too.
nice review, thanks for amazing video
I just bought this. I saw some reviewers had technical issues like video/audio cutting out or complete loss. And some lcd's burning out creating large spots in the projected image. These occur after days, weeks or months of usage. So how is your projector functioning today?
BEST INTRO EVER
Hello! I just wanted to know if I can use any type of iphone rather than using a computer? Would that work too?
can i connect my phone through usb to mirror my screen?
what color calibration did you choose?
Is this better than the YABER Native 1080P Projector 6500 Lumens Upgrade Full HD Video ?
what about the audio -out and -in quality? is the sound good and loud enough?
I have the V600. Which is the best color settings to get the most accurate colors? Thank you
Did the Projektion screen come with it? Bought the v600 today on amazon and idk if I have to buy a screen
What makes it different from the 510?
A question on these budget projectors: Do they have to be set centrally to get a square image, or do they correct the image if off-set?
You can set it to the right aspect ratio if its square (4:3)
@@LifeKommando Thanks for reply, but I guess I didn't explain myself properly! What I mean is: If I want the projector in the corner of the room, and project the image at an angle onto the wall, can I adjust the picture so it is perfectly rectangular?
@@MrAWGlossop I dont think so, i recently compared the V630 in my latest video and the V630 has that feature
But the focus is probably going to be bad at such an extreme angle, but I dont know what your room layout is like so it might be just ok
Wheres the power slot/ cord?
I'm trying to set up 300 inch screen in my pool area. Any advice?
This will be weak even in pitch black at 300"
Find something at least 3 times as bright as this one prob 3x the price to get a solid view
@@LifeKommando I see. Any recommendations?
Btw distance from projector to screen is about 45 feet
Im no expert as I have not reviewed any high end ones yet, but the TH585 might be a good option to look at
Hi just subscribed! as I'm getting this projector for £150 (UK) so searched reviews. Great review btw. Can you suggest anything similar (£) that's better? Thanks.
Welcome :)
At this time I really can't say since there is always something better out there coming out.
But they do have an updated V620 model so that maybe should be better.
I enjoyed the beginning lol
When will you do an ust laser projector
Vankyo sells more newer models in USA and old outdated garbage models in Canada. Example V700 or V630W or VF630T or VF620T (Newer models) are sold only in USA and not in Canada. What a partiality service that is Vankyo ???? By this Canadian customers are forced to only buy outdated models. I didnot buy V630 for its very high fan noise. Many had complaints with V630 for its fan noise.
What size were you watching it at?
I think 85 I think I might have mentioned it some where in the video
Trying to throw up a screen with this projector to but out in our back yard. What would you recommend on the cheaper side? Thanks
The one i tested might be a decent option for outside use
How does the vankyo leisure 530w compare to this???🙏🏽
The vivid looked the best not ugly 👓
On camera maybe, try in real life
lol why you delete it i read it already, its fine, next time I'll make sure its super clean just for you :)
Better than the Vivibright f40?
Someone please answer this question I too want to know.
Have you fast forwarded your speech × 1.5 normal speed - you speak well fast;-) I hope this product is available in London. Will probably have to buy a separate rigid screen for it - this projector is worth buying .
Thats just my on camera speaking speed & probably my editing style.
How many lumen is it they use lux to make it seem bright.
No idea but what ever numbers they usually put are fake, if anything I imagine its 1500-2000 lumens
but why amazon claims its 5000lux projector? you said 4000
It's 4000 lumens
@@Courtesyflush52 how can you know what is the truth?
Muito bom
does yours start getting blurry by itself after an hour or 2.. mine does but it cant be the focusing dial because that joker wont move without some force...
I have been checking videos for my first projector reviews . I can’t make up my mind please suggest me good projector between $150 - 350
I just ordered a Vankyo Leisure 510 off Ebay for about 200$ with shipping. Haven't got it yet but it seems a good deal for little money
However it's a 720p. Enough for my needs ;)
Alessandro Cernuzzi thanks a lot I will check that !!
VESA mount size? :)
Any suggestion for a pop up screen for outdoor using this unit? I saw elite Yard 2 on Amazon. Also any reason to get this over the 510?
The Elite Screens i want to try and review once i am back from my trip.
The only reason you would get the one in the video is for its price and flexibility if you have trees in the right place to tie it.
Reasons to get the yard 2 elite are for its multilayer material. Included metal frame. And how it reflects light properly to get clean colors without bleed and things should overall have better black levels and more clarity.
Otherwise i would try and invest in a good screen in the end its what will make the biggest difference
Hope this helps
Does it support Fire Stick?
What is that subway game? Great review.
SnakyBus
VANKYO Performance V600 VS epson vs250?
Guys, what is the easiest way to connect an Android phone to this projector, that has micro USB slot?
Ele parece muito com aun m18
É o msm Genilson, o M18 é a versão chinesa...mas vai na boa q é a msm coisa
IS ANYBODY GOING TO USE THIS FOR ART? I WAS WONDERING IF I PUT A 24 X 30 CANVAS ON WALL CAN I PROJECT MY IMAGE WITHIN THOSE MEASURMENTS?
Well.... I wish I had spotted your review before getting the M18 projector as a present for my brother... (the M18 is the non branded version of the one you reviewed). I personally owned 2 projectors in the past. An HD Ready Epson costing around 700$ (a good 10 years ago) and a Full HD Epson one costing 1800$ (a good 4-5 years ago. At that time there were some 700$ full HD ones by Epson, but I chose to go "prosumer" on that one), the EH-TW7200 (the 700$ one got into a fire caused by something irrelevant, not the projector itself). I am used to proper picture quality on a projector. Although I wouldn't mind poor colours on an ultra cheap projector, I had never seen a projector not being able to produce an in focus image...
You can imagine my disappointment when with big anticipation I hooked up the M18 to test it out and saw a blurry mess... Keystone correction was a nightmare and ultimately useless. As you already know, it will mess the focus so bad that you must NOT use it no matter what. Then you gotta center the projector height and width wise, as you kind of demonstrated on your video by stacking lots of boxes underneath it... I wish you had explained that this is the ONLY way you can get a kind of in focus image. If you did so, I would have given you my like. (I didn't dislike it though, since you were pretty frank about the whole thing). This is honestly very uncomfortable since you got a projector in the middle of the room, getting in the way of anyone who want to walk in it -_- But even when sacrificing your space, the image isn't in focus... Then there is the noise... You did mention it that it gets noisy, but again I would have like you to say that it get really noisy and annoying... I get that you are doing a probably sponsored review, so, I forgive you for that one too. All in all, this was the most honest review on this product out of all the ones in RUclips.
My recommendation for other buyers:
Do not buy a cheap projector like this one. Yes the 1080p part sounds pretty exciting, but it's not as sharp as a proper 720p projector from a renowned brand. There are LG 720p projector for pretty much the same money and I warranty better colours and sharpness (all be it with lower brightness). But if you go for that 1080p resolution. Just give 400-500$ and get yourself a proper 1080p projector by Epson, Optoma, ViewSonic, BenQ, even LG and Acer. There are some GOOD options out there.... Those 200$ felt like thrown away money when I say the picture quality... I still feel that way... DON'T buy this or any other cheap Chinese projector... You will regret spending the money. Save up some more and get the real thing. I beg you people...
It's not a sponsored video, they only sent me the product but you are right I should have emphasized how loud the fan was, next time I will make sure to make things clearer and most likely review an actual brand..
Thanks for the feedback, really appreciated
Do review and comparison of t26k
Nice ASMR video.
danks
Just one question it says USB 2.0 but if I have a USB key 3.0 will it still work for playing video?
Yes, the USB 3.0 will work in 2.0 Speeds. It will work fine.
@@LifeKommando Great Thanks a lot!!!!!
@@ironmeagher5925 do i need a usb key if im using it for a ps4?
It is a full HD native?
Yup
Yes Lou
Good projector, but fan way to loud, distracting... Shame really..
#life kommando Is the light source real led bulb ???
I think just one more hand controller would put this video over the top.
Can I plug in my iPhone?
Hey. U still thinking on modding the projector? Very interested
Yea I just gotta find the time to get on that already. I will look into starting the video/opening it this weekend and maybe have the video out by next week so if there are any parts i need I can order them.
Can i use my PS4 with this???
You gave me motion sick with that fps test lol i thought it was a lie
So I was looking at buying this last week. I saw two Amazon reviews that said that the video processor could not keep up even with 24fps video and drop below. Did you have this issue? It’s possible they got faulty models.
Also I was looking at buying it and putting a Noctua fan in so I’d like to see that.
I ended up buying a used BenQ HT1070a for $300 with 20hr on the bulb and no remote ($20)
Yea as I have mentioned in the video i dont recommend using the built in player. Always use a dedicated tv media box of Some sort for any standard projector.
Life Kommando oh ok, so you only saw it when using SD/USB playback. Ok that clears it up.
You should totally do a fan replacement or open it up so I can see if it’s possible. No one has made a fan replacement post that I can find. Judging by the grill It looks like it uses a 92mm fan
It also sounds like a blower style fan so it may make things tricky. But wont be able to do it till i am back from my trip
Life Kommando that’s cool. I subbed so I’ll keep an eye out. I’d like to recommend these projectors and fan replacement would be a big bonus
@@LifeKommando I hope you have time to figure out some solution for the fan noise :-)
How atrocious is the keystone correction? :)
I rate it 3.6/5 - Not Great, Not Terrible.
My room is only 2m wide. Is that enough?
You can work with that, you will just end up with a smaller image but a much higher quality & brighter image overall
@@LifeKommando isn't there a minimum distance? Like it won't focus until it's a certain distance away?
@@doms6741 yes in my testing I had the projector at around 1.5 meters away to do the side by side comparison. So you can focus at least at that and get around a 40-45" image
i just got a v630w for less than 50.00
