I am incredibly impressed by the quality of this little thing. For about the price of a "cheap" replacement bulb for my old DLP projector that cost 6x as much, this thing is visually outperforming it in a big way. Sure it only has one HDMI input, but that can be easily fixed with a splitter - I wasn't expecting it to be chock full of features at around $100. But at approx. 10' distance, I'm getting a super crisp 100" 1080p image that is bright enough and quite vibrant to my eyes. It also accepts a 4k signal, which looked even more incredible, though it's 30Hz (fps) - fine enough for videos, not so much for gaming. No noticeable lag, either - I haven't tested any really high-paced FPS games, but Palworld looks/plays beautifully.
As an extra bonus, it doesn't have the "rainbow effect" that DLP projectors have, which I find off-putting. It's nice to be able to pan your eyes around the screen and not feel slightly dizzy. The LED light source means it should also last a good long time, hopefully the screen inside can hold up, but again, at $100 it seems a pretty ok "risk" to take.
The remote has all the buttons it needs, though it is pretty light and cheap feeling. Sadly the thin battery compartment door was a little tough to slide open and cracked in the process, it still works - but it was usurped by my universal remote anyways.
The included screen is nice enough, but probably best to use only if you don't have a nice white wall or higher quality screen to use. The soft fabric material blurs the image slightly and causes bloom around brighter objects, as opposed to straight onto my white wall, which offered a much sharper image. A big crease down the middle required it being stretched to a pretty severe level before it wasn't visible. I assume if you had a proper, higher quality screen, it'd be even more impressive. In the end, it's still a nice bonus you don't usually get, especially at such a great price.
