| The projector has a fantastic picture. It blows my X1 out of the water. I'm feeding it a 720p native signal from a media pc. You need to wait for the 100 hour breakin period before you can really appreciate the blacks and whites. Pre-100 hour mark the whites are a bit crushed and the blacks are more grey. Take the time to calibrate it with a disk like Avia or DVE though as the defaults are way off for contrast and brightness. The colors are very accurate, blue and red were perfect out of the box, but green was off. Blacks are nice and deep and this thing is bright enough in low lamp mode to see the screen quite well (not enjoyable well but well) in a fully lit room. |

| Problems |
| The Analog ports are scaled regardless of feeding it a 720p signal. I verified this on a media pc over the VGA port, there was a lot of veritcal banding. The real aspect ratio is not native at all, you must leave it on auto. This threw me for a loop. Real only passes the native signal when you pass it resolutions under 1280X720p. Not sure why they designed it like this. The HDMI port is flawless though, perfect pixel mapping. The vertical banding issue on the analog ports doesn't seem to effect the video quality, but the picture does seem softer over these ports. |
