View Sonic Projector Stuck On Home Screen

This is the 3rd View Sonic I have bought. When time came around to replace the aging workhorse projector in my production studio, I was seduced by all the new led projector brands with extraordinary specs. I bought 2 and returned both. Somehow their 4K video / 5000 lumens was not as bright, as clear or as distinct as a View Sonic’s HD/ 3600 lumens. Their keystone correction was nearly useless, there was no physical zoom ring to frame the image to the screen, and neither of them could really clearly project at 20’ distance the way the View Sonic can. They lacked signal-on sensing, they couldn’t do pass through audio... in short they fell far short of the prosumer features standard on the ViewSonic. So I returned home to ViewSonic. The projector is not 4K, but for me, that is not an issue, the HD video is plenty clear and resolved. The projector works perfectly. As for the purchase experience from B&H, this is the second professional purchase I have made this spring from B&H, choosing them for superior turnaround, and responsiveness. Bth delicate pieces of tech were well packed, arrived quickly, were clearly brand new and worked perfectly out of the box. ViewSonic and B&H don’t disapoint.

This is a very nice screen for the home office purgatory we are all stuck in because of the pandemic. It is bright and clear and seems to work well with my work laptop. The only hitch was the webcam not working because of our organization’s firewall but the speakers do work. Overall I’m pleased! B&H has its usual fabulous customer service and made the shopping easy!

This projector is now installed on my ceiling, and is for home theater use with a 100 inch screen. I have had it about a week now and am completely blown away. Until now my only exposure to 3D has been in movie theaters. The HD66 is comparable to this experience, mostly limited by my sound system. You do have to adjust the factory settings but when done WOW. The only negative I have is it requires the use of an adapter (3D-XL) to view Bluray 3D movies. However, for a combined price of less than a grand, it can't be beat. I would highly recommend its purchase by others.

Bought this product to use it as material for my projector screen for a home theater! GREAT! Works just amazingly!!! Quality is fabulous! Movies look awesome on this background.

I purchased this projector for my home golf simulator. Projection onto an impact screen, making my game feel and looking ok like I’m at an Xgolf or swing zone golfing simulator. I can practice all winter and prepare for the upcoming golf season when the weather breaks. Highly recommend this projector!

This our first home theater projector, and all we can say is wow! We wish we added this to our home entertainment setup far sooner. Crisp, beautiful colors, deep blacks. Just as good in broad daylight as it is in a dark room. The 3000 lumens is a big hit. Like some other reviews have mentioned, it takes a bit to dial-in settings, but once that’s done, it’s a thing of beauty. No different from any quality display. A few things that we especially love: * The flexibility. This is great to travel with on family vacations. The fact that we bring such an awesome display with us on road trips is a game changer! * The built-in speakers make it easy to use it outside for the kids as they enjoy a movie night with friends. * The 4K resolution never fails to impress. * People have mixed feelings on 3D, but our kids LOVE it! Just note: you need EPSON 3D glasses to enjoy 3D. We didn’t know that initially, but worth it when we added the glasses. * Works well with our FireTV cube. * We’re able to shoot the projector off-center (horizontal and vertical) without any significant warp to screen resolutions. Keystone adjustments are easy enough. * It doesn’t get particularly hot and it isn’t noisy, especially on ECO mode. Bluetooth pairing with our Denon AVR-X2500 worked smoothly, but we did experience pairing issues with a Vizio B362 soundbar. YMMV. Also note, if you want a big screen (12’ +) you’ll need to place the projector a roughly the same distance from the screen. This isn’t a short-throw projector. All-in-all, Epson nailed the balance of performance and convenience with this projector package. We love everything about this projector. This is a review for the Epson Home Cinema 3800 projector that I received free of charge to do a beta test and review.

I have an Epson 5050 for my home theater with a 175 screen. I bought it because I needed the brightness for that screen size, it has very good contrast and I hate the rainbow effect of single-chip DLP. When it came time for a projector for my office video editing suite, I felt the 5050 was overkill on a 150 screen. Reviews on this 3800 were good so I took a chance and I have to say it's great. Good optics, very sharp picture, good image. Contrast not quite as good as the 5050 but close. The 3D capability is awesome. This is an outstanding projector and because it's 3 LCD, no rainbow effect. Plenty bright for a 150 screen too. Very sharp. Love it.

Needed something to hold my components since we were transitioning from a TV to a projector and screen in our home theater. Always wanted an av cabinet with wheels and removable rear panel to make setup, upgrades, etc, easier, and it's as awesome as I imagined. Sturdy construction, rack standard ensures I can customize it down the road. Couldn't be happier.

I am using this projector in a home theatre with a 120 screen. I am driving it with a custom built HTPC and it does 3D as advertised. Picture quality is top notch and I keep it set on Eco mode for long lamp life.

It's our first home cinema projector and is meeting or exceeding almost all expectations in terms of quality of picture (not using a screen) and ease of use. One quibble - having trouble connecting Sonos roam speakers via bluetooth.
