[1000 ANSI & Audio by DBX-TV] Alvar 4K Projector with WiFi 6 and Bluetooth, 30W Speakers, Netflix Certified & DoIby Audio Outdoor Proyector, Auto Focus Native 1080P Smart Projector, Black

WOW! Best projector I’ve tried
I did a lot of research – this is the best picture quality I’ve ever seen in a projector. It is almost TOO bright, so I have to use the lower brightness setting often. But the detail is amazing. It is so clear even on the edges. You can see pores on people’s faces (see photo) and words are crisp. It’s not over the top/fake sharpness like an HDR photo filter or something, it’s just so clear. My friend couldn’t believe it. Its throw is great too, image is huge and projector is only about 20 ft away. I watched a YT video that compared all the projectors in the 200-400 price range, and this one came in 3rd overall, however, I chose it because the colors looked very true /natural to me. The first and second options leaned green – which I notice seems to be a trend with projectors. I do NOT like muddy dark colors or green casts in projectors and did not want that. This one’s colors are fantastic. And the black point is not muddy/muted, it’s perfect to me. Sound is great too, uses Dolby. You can screen share your phone, and can plug in external devices like a firestick if you want (which I did) but it does have smart feature if you don’t have one of those. The fan is not silent but it’s much quieter than my old projector’s fan. I’m extremely happy with this! I bought a different projector originally that was more $$$ and the picture is quality was awful it was so disappointing. I think for the price range, you really can’t do better than this option!

Bright Performance and Honest Service: An In-Depth Review of a Budget Projector
After extensive research, I’ve become well-versed in projector technology—especially when it comes to ANSI lumens, the industry standard for brightness measurement. I specifically sought models that adhered strictly to this measurement, which immediately distinguished this projector from many of its competitors. While many projectors boast about achieving high brightness ratings, I’ve noticed that a number of them often report inflated ANSI values.I needed a projector capable of handling ambient landscape lighting at a community pool during the evening on a 180″ screen. Fortunately, this model delivers robust performance after sunset. Even when I tested it on a 75″ screen in my brightly lit condo (with shades drawn for optimal contrast), it produced a sharp and vibrant image. (there are 4 photos are on the 180″ screen after sunset at the community pool. One photo is indoors, on the 75″ screen, during the day with no shades drawn. (photos were entered in order however they appear to have been changed by Amazon’s review system)Key Strengths:Brightness and Ambient Light Handling:The projector performed impressively under low-light conditions outdoors, overcoming ambient light effectively on a 180″ screen.Pre-installed Apps:Streaming services like Netflix and YouTube ran smoothly, making it a convenient option for casual media consumption.Responsive Customer Service:I reached out to the company several times with questions, and they consistently responded within a day. When a discrepancy between the Amazon advertisement and the box’s specifications was brought to their attention, they promptly corrected the error on Amazon, which reinforces trust in their customer support.3-Year Warranty:Although the warranty is only as strong as the company behind it, their established presence—with reviews dating back to 2021—adds a level of comfort knowing the product is backed by a multi-year guarantee.Areas for Improvement:Bluetooth Latency:The connection with Bluetooth speakers suffers from noticeable latency, causing a delay between the on-screen action and the sound. After trying the company’s troubleshooting suggestions and further research, it appears that low-cost Bluetooth solutions struggle with this issue. As a workaround, I plan to use a hardwired audio connection.Dust Accumulation:It has been reported that over time, dust tends to build up on the backside of the lens, potentially creating visible spots on the projection. The company provides a cleaning guide for this common issue.Potential for Dimmer Image Over Time:There’s some concern that the brightness may decrease with prolonged use—only time will tell if this becomes a significant factor.Auto-Keystone Challenges:Although the auto-keystone feature is designed for convenience, I experienced difficulties with it and ended up manually adjusting the settings.Overall, after comparing this projector to approximately a dozen others in the under-$500 range and examining numerous user reviews, it’s clear that while these models typically excel on smaller screens, this one uniquely meets the demands of outdoor, larger-scale projection after sunset. For anyone needing a device that can deliver a strong performance in varied lighting conditions and appreciate attentive customer service, this projector is a viable option—provided you can work around the Bluetooth latency and other minor issues.

good quality image with bright vibrant colors. native 1080p

let me start by saying there’s a feature they don’t show in the listing and I should have taken a short video of it for you. It has a zoom feature. It’s done in the setup menu and controlled by the remote. It starts at 100% and you can make the image smaller in 1% steps down to 50%.Why should that matter? let’s say you have the projector in a spot where you can’t move it, on a wall or suspended from the ceiling. You set everything up, have the screen on the wall and turn it on. The picture bleeds off the edge of the screen you have set up. So without the zoom feature, you have to move something to fit the screen properly. With it, you just use the remote, sit in your chair and adjust the picture size to fit the space. So easy and a feature they really should mention because it’s key to a good viewing and setup experience. Now on to my review….This is the 4th projector I have had and I have now found the one I want. Great features and very good picture quality with decent sound from the machine plus Bluetooth for a soundbar etc. I like the apps that are loaded in a similar way to having them on my Android tablet.Super bright and sharp, at 1000 ANSI lumens, it’s bright in rooms or outdoors (not in direct or bright sunlight), the image is quite good. The sound is also impressive, thanks to dbx-tv’s Total Sonics tech, which gives you a good audio experience.Preloaded with Netflix, Prime Video, YouTube, and over 7,000 (so they say, I haven’t tested that number) other apps ready to go, so no need for extra devices. With its 30W HiFi speakers and Dolby Audio, you get immersive sound without needing external speakers but I added a soundbar and that is still the best way to get the full sound experience.The projector supports 4K at 60Hz, so the picture quality is top-notch. With HDR10+ and 100% NTSC, the colors are vibrant, and the contrast is very good, making everything look super realistic.Auto features – The auto focus and auto keystone correction are a huge plus. Within reason on a flat surface, no matter where you place the projector, you’ll get a sharp, aligned image. It also has auto obstacle avoidance, so it keeps the image on-screen even if something is in the way.WiFi 6 and Bluetooth 5.2,so you can easily mirror your phone screen onto the 50-300″ display. The two-way Bluetooth lets you use the projector as a speaker or connect it to other Bluetooth devices like speakers or headphones without lag.You can mount this projector on the ceiling, tabletop, or wall, so it fits whatever setup you need. It also has plenty of connection options, including 2 HDMI ports, USB, and a headphone jack, making it compatible with gaming consoles, streaming devices, laptops, and more.Easy control with touchpad and remote – It comes with a touchpad that lights up for easy control, and the Bluetooth/Infrared remote is super responsive. Makes operating the projector really smooth and simple!

First off I would like to say I think the unit I received could have been a return just for the fact that the lens cover film that in the instruction manual states to remove, was not on the lens.With that out of the way I can say that this is one impressive projector. I know nothing about projectors and ordered this to see what the hype is about them. I can see it now along with some negatives.The positive thing about this is it’s movability. I like rearranging my furniture once in awhile. Takes some of the boredom with cleaning. So have a projector that is smaller than a 65″ we have, gives me more options lolThis projector offers 4K with 1080P/16:9 ratio with pretty good results. I started this review with it being outside as the listing states it can be used outdoors as well as indoors. As you can see the image was after I set up the wi-fi and some settings is not the greatest but it was still light outside and the viewing range was not ideal as I have a small deck and no screen. But even with that, it was good.I did try it indoors, both upstairs and downstairs where it will probably be and on just light grey walls the image was even better that what you see. My husband was even impressed with the image quality that he wanted to run out today and get a screen.Setting up the projector was fast. Connecting it to Bluetooth was as easy as putting in the wi-fi password after choosing my internet provider. Make sure the device you use (phone/tablet are on the same network) and follow the steps. The remote is sensitive so be careful when you do your password. Mine wasn’t connecting so I unmasked the password (on the screen keyboard you will see and eye with a line through it) as I must have press a letter twice. Once I saw my mistake going forward was a breeze.Like I mentioned the image quality is very good. The audio I will have to go into the setting for the DBX function as the functions have a ‘Total Sonics’ that suppose to ‘improves sound quality’. You can also hook up an external audio source like a sound bar/ sound system with a HDMI cable.There are 2 HD (high-definition television) ports as well as a USB and headphone jack. It does come with a HD cable, however as this projector is rated for only ‘front view’, meaning the projector has to be in front of the screen and does not recommend rear view, the HD cable length is too short for the sound system downstairs. I would need a longer one. The speakers on the projector are 30w.The remote that comes with the projector is very responsive as mentioned above and needs 2-AAA batteries that are not included.Overall impressed with the ALVAR 4K projector and what it can do.
