![]() ❌ You value 4K: If UHD resolution is your goal, you won't find it here - and you'll be paying similar prices to other 4K options. Verdict: The Vamvo LG200 isn't going to blow more expensive options out the water, but it offers a solid projection with all the controls you'd need to get that image shining as well as it can. For everyday play and streaming, though, it's still a reasonable picture considering the price point. This being a cheaper projector, you're going to run into a fairly low contrast picture with darker scenes leaving details to the imagination. The LEDs are suitably bright without too much heat, so this is a projector that can come out at dusk rather than once night has fully set in. Performance: The visuals on screen are the most important thing to look at of course, but it delivers here too, at up to 200 inches of great picture in good conditions. Menus are simple but don't take much thought in navigating, perfect for an easy setup. Though if you're after a solid listening experience we'd recommend hooking up an external source - this is a weaker setup with very little bass to it. This is a simple aesthetic, though, with a silver chassis and black grills running across a compact device.įeatures: The digital keystoning tool on the back is a nice touch, and the ability to alter this horizontally as well as vertically makes it easier to set up in locations others might struggle with, very useful as many gardens don’t have that perfect spot for a projector! The speaker is also more than passable if you don’t want to lug out a sound system every time you use it. The only drawback is that the capacitive controls on top of the unit can be a little fiddly, so don’t lose the remote. ❌ You value sound quality: The built in speakers are decent but aren't going to replace a separate system.ĭesign: The Vamvo is particularly stylish for the price, with a smart-looking case to make carrying around the light unit even easier. However, it's still passable for everyday use. ❌ You want the best picture quality possible: Low contrast and a fuzzier image quality means this isn't going to compete with the top models.

Verdict: The Acer Predator GD711 is an excellent all-rounder for those looking to hook their consoles up to an even bigger screen. ![]() Once it’s set up, the GD711 makes games look superb and super smooth, even for the quickest FPS games. Once this is properly set up, it’s an outstanding gaming projector. Video looks amazing too and makes the most of the 4K resolution the GD711 can pump out, with a wide range of modes giving you ideal setups quickly for the perfect colour pallet. Still, landscapes look lush, the bright game mode makes colours pop and the dark game mode keeps detail up in the shadows by using the DynamicBlack technology. While there’s a wide range of colour pallets to chose from to enhance your viewing, some manual tweaks were needed to stop the picture looking a bit washed out. Performance: In our testing, games were silky smooth, without noticeable lag and even the quickest FPS stays sharp as you wildly move the camera around (if you play shooters as chaotically as I do…). Also having to switch source on the unit itself rather than through the remote is odd and something we found irksome - although turning on an HDMI device on will make the projector switch across. Unless your room fits the throw ratio you may need a ceiling mount to get it in the right distance. ![]() What was more annoying to us, however, was the lack of zoom control, which feels utterly baffling, meaning you have to set projector size by placement. We did find the 10W speakers to be tinny and weak, but if you’re dropping this kind of money on a projector you’re likely to be someone who already has a good audio setup. Finally, a competitor to the BenQ X1300i for dedicated gaming projectors! Features: There's an ultra-fast refresh rate of up to 240Hz in 1080p for PC (120Hz at 1080p for consoles) and minimal input lag which we found makes this ideal for huge screen gaming.
