Optoma UHD42 review

 

Could this be the best projector for gamers?

Excellent black depth ; Great gaming feature ; Strong, bright picture

Image is flat ; No motion processing ; Obvious contrast adjustments

Great features for gamers, but there are more capable projectors for home movie night

Brilliant home projector, quiet and very bright

 

I bought this just before Christmas 2020, it was a massive upgrade to my previous 720p projector. I have a home cinema setup that's dark, so I am running the projector in low brightness and eco-mode. The image quality is astonishing, better than going...

Great

 

Experience of projector - beaut. Physical setup was easy, cable management a little trickier; one of the ports is HDMI 1.4, one is 2.0 - both are technically 4K capable, but the former only at 30hz, which is a little juddery, but, especially given I...
