I just got LCD Movie Projector, 800x600 Pixels, HDMI Port, 1080i/p Compatible, Game TV Home

Great Starter ProjectorBy PhilIt doesn't say on the page but this appears to be the Digital Galaxy 737. Overall I'm having a good feeling with mine. I custom built my own projector in the past, which gave mediocre quality and was huge, loud, and cumbersome. This unit definitely outperforms any DIY projector and is probably more practical economically.Pros: The unit claims 2000-2500 lumen's and I believe its pretty close. It throws an image over 100" at about 10-11ft and still looks very good respectful of distance. The bulb as I understand costs $38-40 which is very agreeable if you plan to do a lot of TV viewing or gaming. Keystoning is pretty straightforward. Internal speaker is quite nice too, but that's not why you'd buy it. Unless you're a movie buff, I wouldn't say you need a pitch black room to see the picture, its pretty decent in ambient 1pm draped windowed rooms.Cons: Yes it is LOUD. It maybe possible to replace the inner fan with something quieter, but I haven't cracked mine open yet to see. The plastic twist focus on the front lens is quite stiff, and you feel as if your going to break it. The image settings in the menu don't do very much at all for the picture, and switching inputs on the remote is a little unintuitive. The 800x600 resolution is a letdown if your a PC gamer like me, but ideally it is best for console video resolution. Also, be aware that HDMI-in does not equal HDMI-out on this unit since its merely pushing 800x600, it is a more convenient connector but that's about it, I really couldn't tell the difference between the HDMI input and the composite.Other Notes: I was unable to get an HDTV signal from a TIVAX ATSC converter box to the NTSC coax on the unit, it kept reporting no signal however it did work through the composite RCA connectors. Bottom line: This unit is great for those starting off with projectors and console gamers looking to save money.6 of 7 people found the following review helpful. »» Read more about LCD Movie Projector, 800x600 Pixels, HDMI Port, 1080i/p Compatible, Game TV Home.
