Optoma HD28HDR 1080p Home Theater Projector for Gaming and Movies | Support for 4K Input | HDR Compatible | 120Hz refresh rate | Enhanced Gaming Mode, 8.4ms Response Time | High-Bright 3600 lumens

Bought this because I saw all of the good reviews. First, it’s somewhat pricey for not having wifi or Bluetooth. Second, it doesn’t even have the ability to power a Roku device (see image). This means that I will also need to get an extension cord to power my Roku device as well as a Bluetooth transmitter. I also noticed that the unit gets very hot on the left side and smells a bit like burning plastic.

Movie nights have been great. Weve used it in the back yard on a 144-inch screen. The images have been bright, crisp, and appear comparable to our 1080p HD TV. We have only used it at night time, so it has been entirely dark. I cant comment on the quality during day time usage. We havent used it for gaming or other applications.

Disappointed that this projector got a couple of dead pixels just after a month and kept gradually increasing. Now there are 6 prominent bright dead pixels and numerous gray ones. At a higher brightness, the projector makes a lot of fan noise.

Not remote control inside and this projector not adjustment horizontal. But it has good quality picture.

I’ve had this projector for about a week now. I was debating between this Optoma and a cheaper model as well as a few Epson projectors (that were backordered). I can’t speak to the longevity of this projector but it has great picture quality from about 8-9ft away it projects around 100 inches with a very clear picture and works well even during the day. Overall I think the price point is great for the value as long as you have the space.

This is an awesome projector: Weve watched movies and Ive played Destiny 2 and it has adjusted to the different requirements wonderfully. I really havent noticed a difference in quality from playing on a large screen tv to the projector -- a very smooth gaming experience. My one complaint is the lack Bluetooth technology that would allow us to connect the sound system and not need to have all these additional wires and extensions to be able to get a sound that matches the image.

I was debating between the hd146 and this projector. I definitely recommend this projector over the hd146. The HDR is amazing on it.

Second Optoma projector. Picture is great. But there are only two attachment points for mounting hardware. My previous Optoma unit had four. Three is the minimum needed for a secure mount. The one on the top Left is integral with the housing and not removable. The second image shows this close up see that it can be appreciated. This is a MAJOR issue for anyone wishing to mount to the ceiling. If you intend to mount a projector from your ceiling, you must find a different unit or tap at least one more hole in the housing to give you three points. Extremely poor design. Optics aside, two stars only for this major design faux pas.

Replaced a 6 year old projector which the replacement light did not fit. This model is much improved and brighter during the day.

I was excited to get this but after some usage that excitement started to fade away. First theres no lens cap with the unit. The picture quality is decent when I can get it to project something. I was using an IPad and an XBox with this and after connecting to HDMI it did not want to project anything, just a black screen. After a few minutes of unplugging and restarting I had success but it doesnt seem to always work the first time. The fan is really quiet and probably too quiet as the unit gets hot and has a burning smell to it. I had to shut it off after an hour or so of use as the smell was getting worse. Not sure if I have a defective unit or what but unfortunately I will be returning this one and getting a replacement and hope the next one doesnt have these issues.
