ViewSonic PX701-4K 4K UHD 3200 Lumens 240Hz 4.2ms Home Theater Projector with HDR, Auto Keystone, Dual HDMI, Sports and Netflix Streaming with Dongle on up to 300 Screen

I finally decided to buy a projector for hunker-at-home movies during corona times. This 4K projector, @ ~$900, was a great balance of cost vs functionality. @ 3200 lumens, its very decent brightness when the sun goes under, and decent enough in daytime. I chose not to buy a unit with advanced audio processing since I intended to use the projector with firestick. I also purchased a vizio 5.1 sound bar and use bluetooth to connect to the audio, and its been great. The down side of using bluetooth is that you do have to touch the sound bar remote to get it connected. however, saved hundreds of $$ w/o the advanced audio in the projector. One gripe: when the unit goes asleep due to non-activity, the screen goes blank, but it does not shut off the lamp. This seems a bit of an oversight that it could shutoff the bulb and save the bulb lifespan. All-in-all, pretty happy with it.

This was initially just a £1000 paperweight! It arrived password locked! The website is useless and I was going to have to return it. But my son sat down and kept trying numbers until he got lucky and unlocked it. The image is superb. Its crystal clear and easy to focus. The keystone adjustment isnt great so its not particularly flexible when it comes to siting it. Having said that, from about 3m, its throwing a 120in wide-screen picture that is fantastic. The difference in picture quality between our previous HD projector and this 4K projector is truly remarkable. The colour depth is good. As with all projectors, it struggles with highlights but its considerably better than most. The speakers really arent very good but we run the sound through a surround sound system anyway. If you are just buying it for the picture as you have a different way to play the sound, this is a great projector. If not, keep looking or budget for a better speaker system too.

After 3 months of use I saw a small white dot on my screen I contacted Viewsonic. They said they would replace it. They sent me a refurbished unit. See the second picture which has all these white circles all over the screen. I told them I just want a refund and they said I need to go through Amazon. What a hassle this has been.

Entry level, reasonably bright 4K projector with satisfactory sharpness, adequate color and blacks, for the average person. If you are looking for the utopian 4K projector that is both cheap and awesome then you are looking at the wrong product. I do like it better than the 1080p projector it is replacing which was a decent BenQ 1080p projector. The BenQ ANSI brightness was 2200. The ViewSonic True 4K UHD 3200 Lumens is 3200 obviously. What they actually light output is, Im not qualified to measure or say. That said, the ViewSonic is distinctly brighter. The colors and blacks may actually be worse than the BenQ but I cant measure that either and the increased brightness creates a much more appealing image so I dont really care. The 3200 ANSI lumens is not bright enough for use in our family room (no window shades) during the day but would be fine for evening use or in a basement. I did purchase this as factory refurbished from ViewSonic here on Amazon. On the plus side, it appears to work fine. On the negative side, it had clearly been used to the point where the lens was dusty, the unit had a few marks, and the remote was dirty looking on the backside. The smudgy dirtiness on the remote was a bit off putting. Id like to think that ViewSonic (or their designee refurb location) would at least use a wipe to clean it before repackaging and shipping off to the next customer. Given the use the unit appeared to have, I have to wonder how many hours were put on the unit before refurb. However, Im not too concerned. Given this is an entry level unit that was at a very attractive price point, Ill be happy to get 4 or 5 years out of it.

Purchased may 2021, and a week ago the projector died on me. Doesnt want to power up, at first I thought it could be the bulb. But read that it has an indicator for the bulb replacement. It still should power up but with out an image. Check cord, check receptacle, it simply wont power up. Warranty is 1yr I figured. 1yr and 3months its gone. Cant complain of image quality cuase was great but maybe more quality in internals could really help for years of service. Sorry Viewsonic but I move to another brand.

For the pricepoint I wanted to buy at, this projector has worked great. I use it every day, and am typing this review on it. I do need to turn on all the shades by day in order to see a clear picture. As other reviews noted, the dark black is so black sometimes the projector is on and I dont even notice (Im guessing theres a screensaver option I havent figured out). I sadly do notice the rainbow effect on this projector when watching high-motion video. I have played computer games on it without the rainbow effect, so I only noticed it on a few action shows I watch. I had no idea what the rainbow effect was before researching it, but basically its a problem that will come with any DLP projector. All in all, the purchase left me wondering if there is a better model for $200-300 more which would have been fine for me to purchase. Overall though I am happy with it and no major complaints. Zero regrets buying a projector though I am sure with as much use as I get from it Ill expect to change the bulb or projector within a few years.

Very good projector. The 1080p looks great on my 100 inch screen. I have it about 6 feet away from the screen because it is a short throw projector. Its great for a smaller room. I did a lot of research and chose this over the optoma short throw because it did not have a manual zoom. Also ViewSonic has a 3 year warranty on parts and one year on the bulb. Im very happy with it.

We needed this to use for our school’s theater productions for background stage scenes. Works perfectly!

Great picture and brightness. Love playing the PlayStation 5 on my 100 inch screen!

Bin hoch zufrieden. Man sollte keine Wunderdinge erwarten aber HD und 4K sind für das Geld unschlagbar
