    Affordable meets quality!

    A powerful clear affordable projector, a high contrast count for deep colors with a stunning DLP image. Honestly its one of the best you can get on a budget, even in a well lit room the image loses no quality. Best of all new bulbs are 50 bucks here on ebay. Changing one out is 3 to 5 minutes tops and with eco mode can last 5000 hours easily before serious degradation in image quality. Its the not so little projector that could, if you are not sure and are not looking to spend alot but want a powerful projector then this should be in your top three. Only one issue though the fan can get loud and make sure it is clean, the bulb could fry an egg without a good airflow.

    Pfftt

    It showed up fairly quickly in a brown plane box, the box was undamaged, the projector was wrapped in bubble wrap and surrounded by packing peanuts. No visible damage. I pulled it out and immediately heard rattling going on, i shook the projector and black plastic feel out of it. Which tells me there is no way whoever packed it didnt hear the rattle. I immediately plugged it up to my Sony dvd player and every thing seemed to work but i can not get it to focus enough to where the letters and numbers arent blurry. No matter where i position the projector. If you your looking for a mediocre projector this is the one for you. This is definitely a 100.00 projector due to the condition i got it in. I over paid. The more i think about it. I want to return it. It just not wroth the hassle

  • Great projector for the price!

    This is a great little projector Great image quality although the sound is not great. The only downside is the lamp hours has been reset so I'm not sure if it has the lamp time that was advertised.

  • Projector or TV that is the question

    I weighed the pros and cons of a large TV or projector for my living room and I am SO glad I went the projector route! I do have to say I was hugely disappointed that the MX520 I recieved wasn't gold like the pictured item, but classic black instead, frankly I was peeved. The MX520 operates well, was well packaged and shipped fast. While I used it 2 or 3 times without a remote I did buy one just to have but see I don't really use it since one setup correctly there is no need for adjustments, however if moving around adjusting is simple. I am using a temporary screen of old bedsheet until I decide if I want a hidden screen or one sitting out all the time and clarity is really nice, I am Very happy I saved hundreds of dollars over a TV!

  • Good value, easy to use

    inexpensive, easy to set up, screen is decent. Not super bright but I bought this used and it may have an old bulb.

  • Good product- more hours than advertised

    Great projector, perfect for my use. Advertised as roughly 700 hours and the projector I received had almost twice that amount on the lamp. Not a huge deal, but also false listing info.

  • Great value projector

    Incredibly bright, mine had 1307 lamp hours. 4:3 ratio works well and can adjust up n down depending on orientation of projector to screen. Awesome for video games. N64 on it is a blast.
