What customers say about "Key Specs"

Optoma HD143X HDMI 3000 ANSI Lumens Projector

The contrast levels in the projector are very good and picture is crisp. Higher lumens , excellent contrast ratio.
It has a good level of brightness and 24 frame playback, which I like.
The image quality is clear and crisp and easily bright enough to be seen with the curtains open.
Great build quality and image even without closing blinds.
I'm projecting on to a 100 inch screen made by Luxburg and the image quality, brightness and colour reproduction is excellent at full size.

Optoma HD142X 1080p Home Theater Projector

I bought this unit because it offered outstanding viewing qualities - high brightness resolution, high video and graphic's resolution, good pricing and portability.
The vast array of options and features make this one of the best, if not, the best budget home theatre projector with a full 1080p native resolution.
Excellent color reproduction , mamboing contrast , do very well in dark scenes.
One of the reasons I went with this model was because of the higher brightness rating. I have it in my living room which has blinds over the windows, but theres still a decent amount of ambient light in the room in the middle of the afternoon.
Rainbows are everywhere in high contrast scenes like credits on black background, my older DLP has none compared to this one.

What customers say about "Display"

Optoma HD143X HDMI 3000 ANSI Lumens Projector

The projector offers great value for money, as the image quality is great and it fits perfectly in my home.
It also has colour reproduction to rec.709 spec and keystone features which some similarly priced rivals do not.
I initially used mine with a dongle and was stunned by the picture quality.
Great also on a white bare wall. The definition of the image is stunning.
The picture is almost crystal clear and the colours are outstanding, especially at night.

Optoma HD142X 1080p Home Theater Projector

I have it at a fairly good distance and its projecting a huge crip and color rich picture. Setup was super easy.
It does have 60 frames per second and also a great picture for gaming or watching movies and shows
I had been looking for a projector for awhile. The picture looks great on my 100" 16:9 screen. I'm glad I purchased it.
Image in bright even scenes in uneven, but not that noticeable on other scenes.
Not enough zoom for bedroom use. Image size does not gets to THX recommended 40 degrees viewing angle.

What customers say about "Features"

Optoma HD143X HDMI 3000 ANSI Lumens Projector

The projector is extremely quiet when being used and having light-up buttons on the remote is a great touch!
Great picture and sound quality and really easy to use.
It is quiet especially in eco mode and setup was as easy as it gets.
The 10W speaker fills a 36 square metre bedroom so much so that at night it is set to volume level 1.
Full HD and 3D capable and dynamic black technology makes for a enjoyable viewing experience and fantastic image quality.

Optoma HD142X 1080p Home Theater Projector

longer lamp life of 8000 hour compared to about 5000 average on others
I especially like that the projector has a USB port so that I can power my Amazon Fire stick directly from the projector.
Decent speaker on it can be used occasionally but would need better speaker if watching movies
The internal speaker is not the greatest. Voice sound clear and loud but anything else is bad, external speaker strongly recommended.
Also the speaker is not great & I think the could've threw in some type of stand or mount but maybe I'm asking for too much now.

What customers say about "Connectivity"

Optoma HD143X HDMI 3000 ANSI Lumens Projector

Connectivity is good with two HDMI ports one with MHL and a USB port that can also be switched on in the setup to provide power to a chromecast device or similar.
I have a Now TV box and a Chromecast connected one to each HDMI that gives me all the options I need.
Overall a very good value projector which has a surprisingly good picture and a good set of features and connectivity.
It supports HDMI Dongle like Google Chrome-cast, Amazon Prime Stick and many more streaming devices.
I have used it with my iPhone and iPad with excellent results (you need the apple hdmi dongle).
