I previously owned a 3 year model Optoma HD66 that after 3 years of use the white pixels of death covered the screen so I was watching my budget. I saw the good reviews and took a gamble on this Viewsonic. It is OK for me but not great. Probably because I was used to the clarity and performance of the Optoma HD66.
I also could not get the 3d to work with this unit. I had all the HDMI 3d cables (1.4) and even the correct Viewsonic glasses but it didn't work. The most important thing to remember is this need space to cover a 100inch screen. The Optoma was fine as it included the needed adjustments, My screen is 13ft away from my mount point. This projector is basic and does not include the ability to resize the screen the same as the Optoma did.
Pros:
- It turns on and off quickly
- It is quiet
- It synchs quickly
- The colors are nice
- It is lightweight
Cons:
- I see pixelation even with Blue Ray movies
- For a 100ft screen, make sure you have at least 15ft from mount point to screen or it wont fill it.
- I couldn't get 3d to work even with all the required cables, etc.
Bottom line:
If you are used to an adjustable 3d projector (HD 720 and up) you may see the difference and this could be a downgrade for you. If not and you have the room for mounting this will probably be fine.



I was as skeptical as everyone else here. Great reviews on Amazon. when I ordered it was all 5Star reviews. (There's a 1 star now for a faulty product)
Anyway. Wow... just wow. I have this set up 13ft (approx) from my wall. Projecting roughly 92-100" I was so determined to get a screen right away. However, the picture on my wall (offwhite colored wall) is so immense, that I haven't even bothered to measure it for a screen yet. Also, any other projector in this price range with 3D is likely "3D ready" meaning a computer is needed most of the time. This projector is BluRay 3D ready. HDMI in, and done!
I will get a screen to enhance it even more, but the color and contrast are crisp and georgous!! the 800x600 native scare the cr*p out of me. I love HD, I really do. With HDMI plugged in, my laptop went to max resolution at 16:9 widescreen (Which is not listed in the description)
The widescreen viewing area fits inside the 800x600 viewing area, but again I'm still able to get 92-100" WIDESCREEN from approx 12-13ft. Movies and TV look absolutely incredible. Xbox 360 games look stunning. I can use this during the day with the blinds closed. I still get a lot of ambient light, and the picture still looks great. At night IT SHINES!, but still very watchable during the day.
On to the cherry on top of the cake (3D!!!) I bought a pair of 3DTVCorp glasses. Synched with projector as soon as the powered on. I turned on IMAX Under the Sea 3D and sat down about 8 feet from the wall. Not too soon after, a GIANT fish was swimming out of my screen and looked like it was about 12inches from my face.
As with every 3D experience, the source material (Movie) is key. IMAX know how its done, but there are some wonderful movies also (I highly reccomend Life of Pi) The Tiger pounced out of my screen and scared me to death!
I had to ramble on here becuase it just is that good for the price. Overall, I would have expected to pay AT LEAST $600-1000 for this.














The reviews regarding the sound that comes from the product are true, the sound quality that comes from it isnt the greatest, but if you have external speakers, the problem is eradicated.
It is true, the room has to be somewhat dark (or at least have somewhat decent shades) to be able to view during the day time.
I use this to watch content i have on my Ipad and it works awesome with an HDMI cable hookup. Sometimes it has trouble deciding which speaker outlet to use (i have a bluetooth connected speaker *jambox*) because when connected to the projector it wants to use the projectors speakers. ***SOLUTION: connect ipad to projector first - before starting a video, go into settings and re-calibrate the speakers - then you can play the video as normal and the sound should be coming through the speakers not the projector.
For a projector screen I use a white shower curtain (not frosted......white) and i have it projecting from the front.
If you want to project it from the rear, use a frosted curtain.

The results?
Both projectors are amazing for the price - but, for an extra $50, the Optoma was noticeably better - sharper, with better colors and image quality. If you're on a really tight budget, this ViewSonic is definitely not a bad choice. On the other hand, for only $50 more, you go from 800x600 on this (which is almost unusable today) to 1366 x 768 on the Optoma.
It's also worth noting that the Optoma is a little bigger and roughly a pound heavier - so, if you're carrying it around a lot, that might make a difference. But, if you're using it for movies, or setting it up in an office, the size difference is pretty minor.
I hope you found this helpful! Feel free to leave comments and questions below.


first off this is NOT NATIVE 1080P... native resolution is a measly 800x600... but NATIVE MERELY MEANS that is the "best resolution" for the projector... not to be misleading. HOWEVER it does perform brilliantly on 1080P sources... and a very possitive reference is the HDMI cable i am using is 35 feet long INTO a 1x2 splitter then into the av receiver... that had me worried but there were NO LAG or sync issues, the HDMI boost enhance feature really works, that is proof.
Image is clear and decent contrast, it is wise to use a screen if you want a brighter picture and more contrast, contrast is 15000:1 not bad at all for a projector, even way pricier ones go around that.
LUMENS is very good... It is claimed 3000... it certainly is bright... I'm projecting on a 120 inch screen and it does the job just right.
3D sync... was perfect, right off the bat and I have to say, pretty impressive... as good as the movie theater.
Function... it does have a fan, it is not dead silent, but pretty decent... not intrusive. It warms up pretty quickly, with image appearing fully bright in under 10 seconds. Source syncing is impressive, You turn it on and before it lights up, you alrwady have video sync, in the proper aspect, if your source is on.
Menus, are clear, and the MY BUTTON function is a great addition to the remote, I have 3D Sync setup there and it happens with just one button.
I have to say I'm throwing everything at this thing, using all of it's features and it has delivered in all of them... using my cable box (in SD, 1080 and 1080 3D)... blue ray... and game console through my AVR receiver.
Do your HOMEWORK when buying a projector... check3D glasses compatibility... about throw distances, etc. there's plenty of online info available.
I believe for the price, this is a tough one to beat.
